Proven track record with some of the original creators of Battletech...and it's "another scam?"

Yea, no.

[Robot Kenshiro]

I have a good feeling. When this game comes out I'll probably park MWO for a good while. I do love MWO. We'll see if this game changes with the partnering of battle tech and sharing of artwork and models etc. Hopefully this leads to PGI getting ideas that they can incorporate to MWO. High hopes for that tho.

So, Paypal is the way to go if the Card gets declined? I've tried about three times for the Jacket Packet, but Kickstarter does not want me. Curse living in New Zealand. We're outside of decent Internet Coverage.

i read faq, and they say, they will add CLAN mechs later....

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.

regarding FAQ 40 $

in for $275

That's a track day + fuel + oil

You crazy!

But it's a good secondary priority...

[Speedy Plysitkos]

LIGHT: Locust, Commando, Spider, Firestarter, Jenner, Panther, Raven, Urbanmech

MEDIUM: Cicada, Blackjack, Vindicator, Centurion, Enforcer, Hunchback, Trebuchet, Griffin, Kintaro, Shadowhawk, Wolverine

HEAVY: Dragon, Quickdraw, Catapult, JagerMech, Thunderbolt, Cataphract, Grasshopper, Orion

ASSAULT: Awesome, Victor, Zeus, BattleMaster, Stalker, Highlander, Banshee, King Crab, Atlas

If MWO is still around when it's released, that is

Almost $350K and 4500+ backers after a little less than 2 hours. Average just over $77 per backer.

That's normally the chance you take with a Kickstarter campaign.

Luckily the developer has a good solid track record. Plus, the developer already funded the basic bare bones title anyway, so I would think this particular game will be a sure thing. I wouldn't be too worried.

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

$25 actually gets the game, FAQ at the bottom says they're aiming at ~$40 retail on release

[Robot Kenshiro]

Hey scout Derek. Your signature is awesome lol. If only our mechs could do that.....

Here's hoping we can get past the funding by a lot and they'll expand the mech roster, unless that's something they can't do because they have to wait for the art from Alex Iglesias.

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

I wasnt asking about people who want single player.
