Well, lets take a quick look at some numbers shall we? Last OSD update showed around 16k founders (as of July 11 I think) so well just say there is an even 17k as of now. We had 10000 CB1 invites and some of them had to be founders. We'll just say 1000 for easy math. We've had 6000 founders invites go out for CB2 already. If they have another 1k go out tomorrow you have a 1 in 11 chance to get one. Another 1k on Friday, 1 in 10. Its only going to get better so long as they keep handing out those keys.



Your chances are probably better than 1 in 10 but I don't have any solid numbers to work with.

It also saddens me to see people foolishly lose beta access because they do not know what the NDA is. What a waste. :|

Anyone have any RELIABLE idea of how many founder accounts exist? Judging by the fact that there is currently 43?! members (all of them founders) at this exact moment reading this topic alone the sound of 1000 new beta keys per day really doesn't make me all that hopeful...

So since I didn't get a key, and I'm so excited for this I got out my ole Mech Warrior 2 31st century combat: Titanium Edition. installed MechVM and happily blasted my way to glory! also Microprose's take on the BattleTech universe with MW3 and Pirates Moon works well in Win7 64bit using windows 95 compatibility mode.

Me: "So I was sitting at my computer today, and I realized, ever since I started wanting a beta key, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day of beta, that's on the worst day of my life."

Dr Swanson: "What about today? Is today the worst day of your life?"

Me: "Yeah."

Dr. Swanson: "Wow, that's messed up."

Im never going to get one and that makes me sad.... because im not a founder of course! But i dont even know if my computer will run this game im sligtly under minimum requirements....

[Streeter]

I think the only thing that really annoys me is the injustice of not being first ordered/first in. I can understand the marketing aspect of randomness, but people who either have been signed up from the start or paid more to show support being left out is very frustrating.

Thankfully everyone should be in with in a few weeks so it really doesnt matter that much

Well, there's always the GW2 beta coming this weekend.

those weiners really need to release the game, I don't care if it's not ready, I'll play an unfinished product (as long as they fix it later)
