Next month the Periphery invasion begins.

[Eximar]

Unless it doesn't.

Good things it's somewhere far beyond my point of interest. Who cares about northern Periphery, anyway?

But it does. I'm looking at our invasion plan here, and according to Jade Falcon we're going in and my clan is designated to start with The Free Rasalhague Republ- Wait.... you know what, you'll find out in a month.

Oh... it will beginn... you can´t do anything about it.

http://www.sarna.net...i/Clan_invasion
The Clan Invasion (known to the Clans as Operation Revival) refers to the massive Clan invasion of the Inner Sphere, commencing with the arrival of Clans Jade Falcon, Wolf, Ghost Bear, and Smoke Jaguar in the near, coreward Periphery (The Rift and The Draconian Drift) in August, 3049.

But the real 1st wave starts in March.

I'll tell all those citizens that their bureaucrats have abandoned them.

This is one of those pilots huddling in their deployment hangar trying to convince themselves that war isn't happening.

There's already War. It's everywhere. Just sayin' first clan contact might be when you say, ...and it might not.

I don't think you understand, it's when the first clan contact occurs in the outer periphery. There's no debating whether or not it occurs, it occurs.

I understand the canon BT timeline perfectly. You, however, need to understand the PGI may, or may not, do exactly that.

"When the Dragoons first turned up in the Inner Sphere on April 11, 3005, with their heavily escorted convoy of spaceships carrying no less than five regiments of pristine BattleMechs, their initial appearance caused a panic for the Federated Suns planet of Delos IV with which they made first contact."

THIS is BT canon. Already in 3005 the Clans knocked at the IS backdoor. Even though they were disguised.

QFT. Development and Implimentation of MWO trumps BT Canon. - Just saying.

Hey, Sippy. The Jade Chickens started with the Commonwealth part of the Federated Commonwealth. Wolf hit the FRR, first. Then the Bears started edging in, too.

Cause they keep a daily account on the time line for no reason right?

[CCC Dober]

Breaking news. August 13th: Phelan Kell captured by mysterious invaders. Want to know more? Tune in on ISN.

So, knowing full well that Community Warfare won't be in for launch, which is no telling how far away since we don't even know when Open Beta will commence, you actually think that this game will absolutely, positively, proceed on a 1:1 time factor no matter what?


No one outside of PGI knows what will happen, and when. Since you can't read, I'll quote myself "Just sayin' first clan contact might be when you say, ...and it might not."

[geck0 icaza]

I actually think it won't hold on 1:1 even if everything went perfect. Play through the clan invasion, and then what? Peace? Naw I think they will likely skip over a year or so where it would benefit.

If you can't tell the game was made for the clan invasion. The beta times, and likely release date can tell you that. I do work in the industry and this is business as usual. They could have picked ANY other year or time frame but they didn't.
