I only have limited characters to enter in a tweet, some things need to be condensed

Typographical/grammatical errors hadn't even crossed my mind...

Had too add two days to the clock according to Bryans Tweet today:

Bryan Ekman ‏ @bryanekman - 7 days and counting until #GDC2012. Are you guys as excited as I am?

So...

7+ days (to GDC Expo.. March 7th)

OR Maybe not.. ?

Bryan Ekman ‏ @bryanekman - @MidloJagz expect #MWOGDC coverage throughout the week!

I'm so confused..

BTW it is KILLING my OCD nature not knowing the actual date..

With the new trailer being posted the day BEFORE an expected BIG reveal today..

I couldn't be more pumped for GDC.. !!

Because if Paul was going to Troll us with just some trailer at GDC, then we wouldn't have seen the trailer yesterday..

This makes me think GDC is going to be even bigger than they let on..

<cough><BETA><cough>

The flip side is the trailer is so good, it could make expectations too high for GDC.. I hope not..

[Chuckie]

So we are on 5+ Days now..

The question do we get BIG news on Monday.. ??? Or as Bryan eluded too Wednesday..?

GDC Surprise = Mechwarrior Online Teaser Trailer in 1240p

[Chuckie]

Should be a real interesting Monday.. (Or is it Tuesday or Wedensday Bry an has confused me.. )



Charles Goin ‏ @MidloJagz



@bryanekman #MWOGDC @MechWarriorF2P are announcements spanning all 3 days, or will there be a BIG announcement on the 5th (or 6th or 7th) ?



Bryan Ekman ‏ @bryanekman



@MidloJagz expect #MWOGDC coverage throughout the week!



>>>>>>>>



Which kind of confuses as much as it clears up his comment about it being 7 days to GDC on Tuesday

I doubt they'll release a beta in the upcoming week.Look at bf3 their beta was like a month or two before the game released.I think the best we can hope for is screenshots maybe video, and some interesting details on the games mechanics and such. I'm sure it'll be juicy information I'm just skeptical about a beta announcement. Besides haven't they already stated if there's a beta it will be a closed beta.

A 6+ month Beta. Hmmm. Unless the intend to leave it in Beta (semi-permanent) I am sure the whole Gaming Dev world would be surprised by such a revelation.

P.S. If you know something, and your not telling us directly Metro, shame on you. We have plenty enough of those about already....

Yeah he knows something, but he is bound by a NDA, so we will never know until it is revealed... damn guys on the inside.

Burp.......!

All I am saying is.....the first trailer, is only the beginning, And it is only a peek into Mechwarrior Online, and what is in store for this massive community.

This wouldnt be the first time Metro has "insinuated" stuff to get the forum going..

He has been taking trolling lessons from Paul..

Figure since I am sure they have a countdown in their office we should have one too

GDC Countdown clock

GDC Expo opens the 7th, so for now we will assume this is when the Big Annoucements are to happen..

Although COULD happen sooner as

GDC Conference opens (But is closed to non-participants - the 5th)

and

GDC Play starts the 6th


FYI - GDC is the Game Developers Conference.. http://gdconf.com/

We have been teased and trolled and tortured (and other T words I am sure) that a BIG Annoucment is planned for GDC.. ( Sometime between March 5th and the 7th.. see above.. )

We have no idea what to expect from PGI at GDC at the IGP conference about MW:O

Expectations are at Minimum screenshots, in game video and the like.. Now what a LOT of us "Old timers" on the forum are HOPING and Crossing our fingers for is a Beta annoucment, either closed (and we will be invited) or a open Beta for all..

Hope that answers "What" GDC is..

Thanks Chuckie! Actually had no idea what GDC was or what it meant. This helped a lot!

And good luck to all our developers! You've been good to us thus far and we look to return the favor soon!

I unlike others, speak the truth.

You will see.

Then I will humbly accept your apology.

How many people do you suppose are going to stare at that picture tell they go cross eyed trying to figure out what it is, only for Paul to reveal he googled the word "gullible" and posted part of a completely random image.

Aren't we cool.......
