I am still waiting to find out the "recommended" specs for our computers. If I don't have to drop $1500 for a new system I sure as heck will be dropping $60

HEY! It's the NA (North American) server. Quit crying! you guys do nothing but complain about how awful the U.S.A. is, but you whine and cry about getting into our servers. Why don't you just chill til your uber-Euro servers come on line? Jack!

Like you wouldn't be crying like a little girl if this had been a EU-only Beta...

Plus we have clarification now so we're cool !

NORTH AMERICA WOOOOOOOO USA USA USA! ...I've been denied access to a lot of South Korean betas because I don't have a Korean Social Security Number... DAM YOU GUNZ2 AND DIZZZEL!

I have been fantasizing about this game since the mid 90's when I was promised a arcade mech simulator... that never came. Few remember this.

USA huh? A lot of you seem to forget that PGI is a Canadian-based company.

You mean this http://mechcorps.com/content.php arcade 'mech simulator that not only arrived, but I've played several times in the past few years?

oh man, gotta' make sure I have the funds allocated for 6/19, those are some awesome bonuses for the Founders program.

[Alfred VonGunn]

Will you be setup prior to June 19th for Payments? So we can make them then just wait for the E-mail with login info ect?? This might also keep weird and nasty things from happening when thousands of MW f Pilots that are currently going through the DTs try and login during the same 10 mins on June 19th and crash the payment server:)

[Nigredo]

Outstanding

[Devayner]

Ohhh mann ! All i can hear is the factory horn over and over.I want to give you my money.

[Thale Hypotenuse]

No lifetime sub option?

[MasterWolf]

so in trouble - wife will kill me with the current kiwi/us exchange rate

[Howling Mad Murdock]

Sorry to be a pain but just to clarify, will there be a release for the EU servers to have similar Founders packages? I want to invest in this game from the start but don't want to spend $60 on the package if I cannot move it over to the EU servers when they go live.

MW:O is a F2P game, and thus does not have a subscription fee.

[Myrkky]

Yeah! We are going forward. Hope I get in and see you guys on battlefield.
Good luck for beta keys guys!

Which probably won't be done by subscription model, but by buying certain ammount of special currency you spend in some store in game. My guess is it won't be for possible for more than a year ahead.

From the news:


$60 ELITE Founder's Package Includes:

• Exclusive custom "Founder's BattleMech." This 'Mech includes a lifetime, per-match C-Bill booster.
  
• $80 value of in-game currency* for in-game item purchases.
  
• Two-month premium account to MechWarrior Online at launch: Earn XP & C-Bills faster.
  
• Founder's Tag - sets your status apart from the crowd & get noticed in-game and on the forums.
  
• Early access to the game along with Founder's assets availability starts July 17th.

So subscription is probably an option when the game launches.

Premium account =/= subscription. You don't need to pay to play.
