I also know of several hundred TEST that are planning on playing as well.

Signing up for Closed Beta is putting your name into a pool. We will be selecting a set number of people from that pool. The Founders program is the only way to guarantee you'll be in Closed Beta. Everyone else is kind of in a lottery. I like to think of it as the Hunger Games!

Please tell me you're actually selecting people and not just doing it at random...

Also, the new profile stuff is really unclear. How much of the new fields need to be completed to qualify? I don't particularly want my name and dob visible to anyone who views my profile, but there's nothing that says what you actually do with that info, or where it shows up. Is it attached to my pilot in-game?

I'll live with the ping if it gets me in a mech. Also, I've got 60 Australian dollars for you whenever your ready.

i'm in Oz, and an international server worries me not... considering i used to be happy if my ping was under 1300 to play games some years ago, i think i'll be happy with todays pings. lag shooting was an art that thankfully has been almost los-t

that said, if i'm forced to play solely on NA servers, i won't complain... a mech game is still a mech game, regardless where its based.

One thing i would very much like to know is are we getting oceanic servers?, if we do can we transfer our accounts to the australian server?. if we even get one?. If we are not going to get one can the devs please say so.

If we do get aussie/asia servers are we going to be able to purchase the elite packages for our server?.

I have no problem playing on NA servers, as long as i dont spend my money there and cannot transfer it later if the oppertunity arises.

I activated my beta profile and everything on that page, is there anything else I need to do? or do I wait for an invite? or what?

[Okie135]

You mean I can pay what I would pay for a full priced game as a show of support for an awesome f2p?...

Well played sirs. Well played.

What if we plan on using more than one system? I travel a lot. I have a gaming computer and a laptop and plan on using both. Is there a way to load more than one system spec for the beta profile?

FinnMcKool, on 22 May 2012 - 03:29 PM, said:

they just want the info cause its a beta, the system info isnt about where or whether you can play or not.

just so they can fix and work on problems , this info is very important.

Understood. Won't they need the info from both systems then?

I'm sure the devs are open to blatant bribery or "special" favors... it's all good if the lights are off.

Answers to this please.

I have $60 AU to throw at you, but would like some answers first.

[ChaosInside]

I was so overwhelmed with excitement I screwed up my Pilot Information. Any way a dev/mod could change that the birth DAY to 7 instead of 2. I would feel embarrassed but I think that at least a few people understand where I'm coming from.

Thanks!

Ahhh... this is welcome news indeed.

I for one am used to dodgy pings and lag shooting. As a member of House Jurai in NBT-IV, NBT-Mercs, and NBT-HC online leagues, I've learned to live with lag shooting in MW4. As HJ has a worldwide membership, we would really like to test the netcode to see if it is possible to play together in MWO. As such, I'll be signing up for the NA beta opening, and probably for the local one as well.

Thanks to the devs and the current closed beta testers for all their fine work, and I'm can't say how much I am looking forward to this.

I will be playing from Thailand ( I work overseas) and would be glad to give feedback on ping, lag etc, from here. I play WoT on the North American server with a ping of about 330 ms.

OOoooh pick, pick me for a beta key.
