Some Key points here:

Asked by me:
Are all the alternate maps going to be reskins like the brand new Forest Colony or will there actually be new ones? Will any of these be at night time to finally make use of night vision.

Bryan Ekmans answer:
There will be more alternates and new maps. Desert is the next up, scheduled to go live December 18th.

Asked by me:
What is being done specifically to iron out the new user experience?

Bryan Ekmans answer:
It would take too long for me to post here. If you visit the forums in a few weeks, check out the Command Chair section. I will be updating the community on our plans for new users, a feature that will be online before Launch next year.

Asked by Njal Stormcaller:
Founder member, love the game so far. How high on the priority list is adding new mechs? And is the madcat an eventuality? Want to pilot that so bad.

Russ Bullocks answer:
Mech's are a constant priority, we will be adding them at regular intervals. We also hope to increase the pace at which we introduce battlemechs very soon now that were in Open Beta. The Madcat... it is coming !

Asked by Christopher Ruvolo:
With it being F2P, i'm assuming there is going to be some part(s) of the game that we can purchase to have as opposed to putting in many more hours? If so, what sort of style are you going to use for it? I am more of a fan of being able to permanently keep the items I put money towards as opposed to keeping the item for use for "X days".

Bryan Ekmans answer:
Currently all items are permanent purchases, unless you chose to sell them. With one exception, Premium Time. You buy Premium Time in non-recurring allotments.
Camo Spec will have a pay-per-use system. The application is permanent until you chose to change it.

I really do wonder what they mean by "straight away"

....Tuesday.

Straight away in their development build, and 2 weeks later for the live version probably
