Well I backed it. Now when BT launches I can lurk on the forums blowing cigar smoke at every non-founder.

That's how this works, right?

Yes of course.

Any mention of what the retail game is gonna cost?

If it's $50-$70 when it comes out I don't think I'll bother with the kickstarter, I'll just wait for the full game.

Are the Paypal-backers included in the sum shown on Kickstarter?

$35 is the lowest with game. Why dont pay via HBS with Paypal? Much easier and not directly via KS?

I really hope it reaches Stage 3. Really want that in-depth SP campaign.

Don't really give a **** about PvP really.

But with stage 4 you can have the 3, and also playing or trolling Joe, Bishop, Sarlic, etc. :rolleyes:
It's going to be awesome!

I'm just as interested to see what the final backer tally is as I am to see the final goal.

Hope the final goal is around 5 mil or beyond!

But that would be kind of ... messed up? What if KS reached let's say 800.000$, and PP an additional 200.000$ - would we still get stage #2?

I am no geek. But doesnt KS have to release some API to connect with the website of HBS?

/brainfart. No idea. Wonder if its even possible but then more projects would do it.

The one thing I want (multiplayer) is the last milestone. Hard to back when I might not get the most important thing. I wonder how many others feel the same.

I just want my MW:T back :c

I think $50 is reasonable. It's the price of a regular retail game and allows access to the Beta (betas if multiplayer gets made), so it seems like the best deal.

I dont think id go under $35 though. At least $35 gets you the game. Anything under that is nice if you want to support them but can't spare much, but I'd try and scrounge for a digital copy pledge if I could.

And if we don't they'll still do it... :)

I wouldn't put is as a "sure thing".
The biggest income for the kickstarter will be in the early stages of it, once the fans are done pledging.

Everything afterwards will depend on the publicity the kickstarter gets.

nope, none currently purchased. Either someone upgraded to 10k, or their wife caught wind and made them refund, lol.

Actally I would have liked to have cap, jacket, and things... only to see my wife's face when the stuff had arrived :D

I'd def snag the 50 to 125 buck packages myself, and if I had the ability to dump more I probably would (awesome backer prizes!)

Hoping that they'll add co-op if we blow past the 2.5 million, the single thing I think that would be the best single addition past what they've announced so far.

Honestly, I've always preferred my MechWarrior/Mechcommander type titles single player. It doesn't bother me one bit.
