Hey everyone!

Literally just found out about this game 15 mins ago, and i am SO stoked for it. ive always loved the battletech universe, and played mechwarrior 2 when i was younger, along with 4 and the mechassualt games. My knowldge on the whole however is limited, and i know bits and pieces of the lore.

ive read the dev blogs and im very happy with the direction they are taking the game, and ive reserved my pilot name.

a couple questions i have, are they doing anything with the clans? they have always been some of my favorite lore and was curious if they will be intergrated or not. I thought i saw in another thread that clans will be implemented after initial release, but what about the tech and the mechs? if i cant pilot a madcat ill be sad.

also, id like to get involved a bit more in preperation for its release. are there other websites with good information, or possibly people recruiting for factions for game release?

Let me head off all the clan discussion with the following disclaimer: it's all filed as To Be Determined, and not currently part of the game's launch plans. Clan discussion has its own forum for now.

Welcome. The Clans will be added about a year after the game launches. They will be a playable faction.

The game is just being made now, no beta, or screenshots. It should be ready in August. ^_^

The Clans are going to be implemented in a year after release, because we follow canon and the time is 1:1, so it is 9.1.3049 in MW:O right now if I remember the year. They will have Zellbringen in-game, but we know nothing else. :o

Welcome aboard! Be sure to check out the No Guts No Galaxy podcasts as well, those guys do a great job of going over available info and getting some good ideas out to the community.

I must say my friend that clans will def. be in the game in some way because we are nearing the Clan Invasion. However, details on how it will be worked out and if/how players will be able to be clanners, etc, are still up in the air. Also, in case your wondering here is a link that should give you at least an idea for what kind of clan mechs will be in the game, again however, details have not yet been announced...
