So any type of release date? I cannot find anything on that.....

Nope.. they keep Teasing with these kinds of posts and chatter that insinuates a Closed Beta SOON™

Usually right before a Wed reveal (OF SOMETHING NOT BETA RELATED)

... and then they go quiet ...

Rinse and repeat... for about 2 months now.

MY wild speculation.. Closed Beta announcement right about the 30th (As it is a 5 Wed month) and that would give CLOSED beta about 3 weeks before the "SUMMER".

SUMMER™ has been the "Official" date for Open Beta..

So you get the idea..

Its making some of us unbalanced and crazy.. ( Some of us just more so than we already where, but that's another story all together)

You have already signed up for beta by signing up on the forums. If/When a public beta is announced you will be the first to know

ALMOST true, Grimm me boyo. I signed up in the forums, but am banned from Beta.

I hope you guys can post videos and pictures for me.

Sorry noob question...where do you singup for Beta? I'm assuming that reserving your MechWarrior name isn't the same as signing up for the Beta.

The PGI welcoming committee sees me as SUCH a viable threat on the battlefields of MWO, that it was collectively agreed to (myself included) that for the best possible entertainment value, I would need to be removed from Beta.

I would seriously prefer they don't give us a date if it gives them the flexibility they need to get this done right. Companies that say "we are releasing [ultra-anticipated game] on the Xth of X" are just setting themselves up to release whatever they've got for that date, whether it's ready or not. You can give all the estimates you want, but they are just that - estimates. You can't blame the devs for not giving a date because they honsetly don't know it themselves.

Patience is a virtue bro. Find something to do in the meanwhile. Read a book, go run, make some nitroglycerin in your bathtub etc. Time is your friend, not an enemy.

Well, were into the next month now, and I have heard no indication that the closed Beta has begun??????? of course anyone inside of this would be told to "not say anything" and I get that makes sense, but for the love of all thats holy, give us a crumb willya been waiting years for this.
If it helps I would be willing to test the limits of the system specs, the lower limits, my gaming rig is the lowliest of lows, Core 2 conroe, 2.53, 3gb ddr3, Nvidia gt8600, Vista ultimate, I could check and see if it runs on this low ender for ya Wink wink.....
