You said if you buy a founders pack, you would get instant access ("allow us time to process it") to the beta. How long does it take to process? Tired of waiting. The other 7 people in my clan got their email in under 2 minutes. I still don't have mine.

You guys breached the NDA....

I mean, weren't we supposed to never acknowledge that we even had beta?

Actually that part of the NDA has been officially dropped when they started to do the "immediate beta access for founders".

Please read above posted on this topic. It is currently taking around 1 to 2 hours. This is not a problem with Piranha Games but instead with Playspan (Visa).

Yes, ty, I have been reading the other forums and see where the problem is. Ty for replying. I will go watch the Olympics for an hour.

hmm, still waiting

[light487]

Yup.. appears the slowdown is getting even more slow.. I think they (Playspan) might need to do an emergency maintenance right now because it seems the problem is getting exponentially worse.

Seeing reports across the board that things are taking more than 1 hour.. then later more reports coming in saying it's taking 2 hours or more..

Rest assured it is happening.. but at a slower and slower rate.

my wait begins

[Nerfknight]

Howdy! Paid for Legendary Beta about two hours ago. What's the normal turnaround for instant access to the beta?

[phelan87]

You absolutely can upgrade.

[Zedextenr]

If I purchased a Legendary Status as of today, will I still get closed beta access?

[Rennon]

Light it does look like the time is getting slower and slower for people to get there notification email for the beta...Maybe playspan needs to check the server traffic. Im pretty sure sales of founders packs have skyrocketed since they allow people instant access to the beta.

Normally?

1 minute.

Currently?

About 2+ hours.. Playspan (Visa) has some issues with processing of payments. It's taking a long time to get the confirmation through to Piranha Games.

Please read a few posts above this at some of my other responses.

I can't wait!! This looks like the best Mech sim since MW2. I remember when I was playing MW2 online via Kali and MPlayer back in the day. So much fun.

Hello everyone!
Firstly, we wanted to officially announce that as of late last week all Founders Purchasers gain immediate Closed Beta access. If you already have a Founders Account, you should already have Closed Beta access. If you are just purchasing one now, you should have one shortly after your transaction goes through.
Finally - Last week we had a glitch on our servers that meant that you may have purchased a Founders Package yet were not granted Beta access. We think we have cleared up this error but if you still don’t have Beta access, please let us know so we can fix that for you!
We’d like to thank all Founders members again for your support, and wish you all happy fragging!
Cheers,
The MechWarrior Online Team

I think this currently includes my. I purchased via paypal but am still listed as pending and didn't receive any code.

[QANTA]

How long does it take for Paypal transaction to go through i just purchased legendary founder package and I wanna get my hands on it? (Also can i preload the game or do i hate to wait for the transaction?)

[wulogiks]

As of now, you can upgrade your founder's status - i'm not sure how much time do you have left.

I was veteran for 30$ and upgraded to elite for another 30$, so you can try the game now (since you have guaranteed access now), and then mabye upgrade to higher tier if you will love the game.

I am not 100% sure what happens after 7th - I think thad ideally the NDA should be lifted, but they should still keep at least lower tier founder packages avaliable, since people will be making a lot of gameplay videos.

Or alternatively - wait until the game is released, try it and then decide wheater you want to spend money on it since it is a freaking F2P game

[Sinfulness]

I guess my waiting game begins...

Do we get a beta code or is it automatically added?

[Sgt Tyler C]

I Am glad that i have played it. well for a few but it was at my friend's house and i really want to get it myself i guess im going to get the elite or legendary i got to see if i can. i have the money but gotta pay the bill's

I wonder if you can up your account (from $30 to $120) if you asked support though since I'm not sure I want to be spending so much on a game I may not enjoy completely.

Yes, you can upgrade later if you want a "bigger package".

[Kryis]

awesome!

[White Fox]

I need to scrounge up some money and get in this thing!!! Can't wait!!
