Haha, I'm surprised that some of the first action shots have an armless Jenner in them. That's like having a commercial for a new BMW and using footage of one missing a door.

Regardless, love the Jenner. Plenty of firepower with lots of speed.

Did Michael Bay direct this video?

Fantastic video! So how much was everyone laughing when they were putting it together?

Is that the lifetime of the mech? How long you keep it on your character?

Basically what is the definition of lifetime?

The Founders mechs cannot be sold or lost, ever, and they come with their own spots in the MechBay. As such, the boost on them is for the life of your account - as long as you choose to play they game You never have to spend a dime to play, so it will in effect be until:

1) You die
2) PGI turns off the game servers
3) You choose to stop playing

Its for the lifetime of your account. You will have that C-Bill Bonus on the 1 mech you get from Elite or the 4 mechs you get from a Legendary account for the lifetime of your account. Just don't sell the thing.

Be entered for random draws to get closed Beta access before the 7th, too! Your friends would be jealous, if you could tell them.

Who says these guys can't be funny? Ha

The one and only thing that stands out in my mind when I hear Piranha's name is "Duke Nukem Forever". I admit that it's probably given me a biased first impression of Piranha...very worried about mistakes being repeated. I realize those mistakes fell mostly on gearbox and Piranha isn't solely to blame for that, but it won't change my first impression of them having been associated with it.

I'm glad to hear that we're still a ways from beta ending or a true release, but it still doesn't change what appears to be an unclear message advertised--currently--in the founder's package from appearing misleading with mention of early access versus beta access. This is the first time I've seen an announcement or advertisement like this not make that clear and obvious. I guarantee a good portion of players are going to feel suckered when they load up on the 7th. ...I guess they'll have to keep the NDA active at that time to avoid bad press, regardless of the fact that you spent money to play. Otherwise, the word would get out and affect the potential player base before a launch even occurs.

I was hoping to actually get a glimpse of what the founders mech is actually going to look like, since they are supposed to be distint. But oh well, good video anyway.

LOL.. I feel like I just watched a 31st Century car sales ad... but it was an amazingly well done ad.. I'll buy it!

[Garth Erlam]

Thanks
I had a lot of fun writing it (though it's heavily edited from my initial draft )

[Banto]

Nice Vid.

The running animation is sometimes a bit off.
And the hitmodel when the Huchback goes down is still odd. Get hit in the chest and falls over with glowing spots on the chest... and the ankles... probably this Vid included some older footage and it is fixed by now.

But as i said, nice vid. It shatters the hope, that all founders would get beta keys this week and I still hate the Jenner, but nice vid.

one word:

out takes reel.

ok i can't count.

how about:

directors cut?

still two words.

oh well just put me on your ignore list for being less than stellar in wittiness.

[Deuce]

Brilliant vid. I find myself wanting to jump into this light Mech and crank up the throttle!

[NPComplete]

Great video. Really liked it. Hopefully a video will be made for each founder mech (and all other mechs too )

[Odanan]

Nice video! It's getting better and better!

I didn't do the video itself, just the copy. Hell if my ideas had gone through it would have been an out-takes reel

[bobthebomb]

really funny video !

if making people rage is your game !

but Running animation are weird, specially the contact with the ground, model seem to float.

[Kaemon]
