Me and my 9000 closest friends are quite eager for the beta to begin.

Heck, i hate Goons in EVE for your "you are all nUbz and even if standing straight you are still bowing before us", but if your folks are going to play for FRR than it may just be the reason to switch faction because one doesn't get a chance to play with such skilled PvP players very often.


Anyway, the beta launch is great news, it just made my day a lot better.
One important thing though, one which as far as i know doesn't have an answer yet: What criteria will be applied when picking closed beta participants?

[combatplayer]

i hope i get into the beta, i really want to try out the game and see how it run on my system etc. however i'm also kind of interested to know what so many others have asked already, will i be able to move my account to Europe later or am i lost forever?
no matter the case, i will have $60 read for you. twice if i have to.
my only experience is MW4 mercs and vengeance. i also played mech commander but i don't think that counts.

[Capsilus]

This is great, I cant wait, love betas and contributing for success.

Bring it on I'm ready to log in.

[Vulpesveritas]

Thank you devs.

Though I would like to point out, the system information gathering tool is very limited. (though you probably know this) and doesn't show disabled cores, total system RAM (only usable RAM) and the series of GPU rather than the actual GPU model.

Also, I would like to point out that WEI is a very, very limited tool. For example; my integrated ATI Radeon HD 4250m is on par with (and in most games just above) the performance of an Intel HD graphics 3000 (mostly due to drivers, 3Dmark has my GPU about 2-5% slower) yet the Intel HD graphics scores two full points higher in WEI for the gaming score, despite my GPU having the same gaming performance.

Sick! I've been waiting years for this game to revive! Ready to play, guns hot.

Oh yeah, I've just built my own gaming rig that runs pretty much everything no problemo, if that makes any difference to your choice

Cheers

Thirdly, the reason this announcement stated 'North America' is that it's for North American servers – As we have mentioned we are working very hard to launch MechWarrior Online in every region worldwide. We may also run a similar Operation for other regions, therefore we are required to recommend that for the best play experience you register and play in your region in the near future. However There is no IP blocking. You can signup from everywhere just keep in mind that if you are outside of North America we cannot guarantee your play experience.
Thanks for being the most awesome fanbase ever, and we hope this clears up your questions.
Sincerely,
The MechWarrior Online team.

It keeps irritating me that whenever a game has beta it's allways open to the USA and the rest gets shafted... . I'm not making this post to get reply's with IQ statistics and all (pls do ;-)). But I don't think the rest of the world should be happy not getting to play the game we clearly look forward to play.

My 2 cents (of gamer heart talking here)

[Molecule]

YAY!!! You can't imagine how happy I am right now. I've been waiting for this for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time!!! Thanks for making my day!

[DarkAnubis]

Thanks for the info update.

[Cryptwalker]

nice

[Howling Mad Murdock]

Few.... hopefully a few of us Brits will get the chance to play during the Closed Beta

what? login & click profile... what's next? Oh... System profiler scans only C drive. I have more than 1TB HDD, but system profiler shows 70GB. Im not using C drive for game...

Mine did the same, only picked up my SSD but I have another 2 SATA HDD's in it

[Havarok]

Excellent news. However, when I rushed to activate my "Beta Profile", the system profiler did not detect my "high performance" graphics card, only the basic graphics card.

So if someone in another region was to pay for the early access would we be able to access the US servers during beta and then take our accounts ove to our own resepective regions at launch?

This. I'm very willing to pay for a founders package, but only if I can take it with me to the Euro server once it launches.

God mittens here... go away, shoo...

[Hador]

Yea, the founders package is a nice deal, but I hope that you can "activate" that for a server region of your own choosing (Beta on NA servers is ok, but after that I'd prefer EU servers ).

But still plenty of time to clear that up till June.

Yeah we need an official answer on this soon!

[Night Hawk]

Woot can't wait for sure. *Crosses fingers.*

[Preceptor]

Repeating a question from below: Will you be splitting off progress made on these servers to the yet-to-be created EU servers in the future?

Dosn't mater this is Closed Beta, it all will be reseted anyway.
