Im a big fan of Mechwarriors, my first video game was Mechwarriors 2, but the only Mechwarriors games I have played are Mechwarriors 1, 2 and 4 mercenary. And I played 1 and 2 when I was like 5, so I dont know much of the story. All I know is the basic back ground where there the inner sphere consisting of clans, then the Jade Falcon show up and start invading and the Inner sphere is fighting them, but that's all I know. I dont know anything about the different houses or who there fighting or why, and houses seem to be important here so whats the whole deal is with them?

See faction information here:
http://mwomercs.com/game/factions

I'm sure this will be expanded closer to launch, such as what houses have discounts on which Mechs.

I'd hate to lock in someone in Beta and them make me keep them when the game launches before we've even figured out what kinds of discounts we get.

I think you should side with someone with an epic looking logo for their faction. Like House Kurita (Draconis Combine)

We have a freakin serpent dragon.

Obviously we're awesome-er than everyone else. It's a no brainer :P

Also, is a house the same thing as a clan, because I here people say the Inner Sphere is consisting of clans and sometimes people say houses and im not sure if its the same thing or not.

Just remember that if you join Kurita, you are joining these people:

Unless proving your honor by massacring 52 million people is right up your alley.

House Kurita, they follow the code of Bushido. They are the Modern Samurai, join us and prove that you are honourable.

Ya I was thinking Steiner, I mean the thought of economic power house sounds appealing.

Why join a house? You picked the Merc faction insignia for the forums - stay with us Mercs. Why get wedded to one House when you can fight for several of them? :P

Read up on the factions, search your feelings, and make whatever decision you feel is best.

I was thinking mercs, right now that's my choice. But if I was going to make a merc group I wouldn't join like a HUGE 100 people merc group, it would be like me and a small group of friends and people that I know.

Not quite, the Great Houses are the Inner Sphere factions, while the Clans are the invaders of the inner sphere, the Jade Falcons are one of the Clans.
I would look up the different Houses on sarna and pick the one you like, keep in mind the Clans are not yet here, so you can't play them (yet, we hope), and if none of them suit you, play lone wolf, or find a merc group to join.
