Any chance we will get information in regards to the specific hardpoint mounts for each 'Mech variant before launch in order to plan out builds ahead of time?

Do you plan on creating a 'training mode', or allowing for custom matches so mercenary companies and others can train with each other and develop tactics?

1.How will missions/matches be setup? Will they all just be team deathmatches or will there be more specific objectives? IOW will the matches have a "point" other than just killing eachother for credits and xp.

2. Will there be combined arms eventually? i.e. Tanks, infantry, aerospace/vtols?

Will there be regional IP bans in the live version? In any case, would you consider a regional IP ban on the basis of not having established a payment system yet for that region? (ie, Boacompra, SMART and ZONG for their respective regions; no point in supporting regions that cannot have both free and paying options for playing)

How in-depth is merc corp management?

And back to my previous question (albiet in simpler form) Will Canon diplomatic relations effect Loyalty points and contracts? How about canon events?

Normaly MechWarriors starting as Sergeants or the lowest Officer. May it be possible to reject an promotion to stay inside the NCO ranks or at an low officer rank, first to gain (more) respect/xp/or some other kinds of reward without canceling out further skills/modules/and so on, advancement ? And second, to gave an better in-game feeling toward what you fight for (having only four-star generals and so on on the field is more than a bit dubious) ?

thx for that minute of reading.

greetings
Jennifer

Will there be any choices/gameplay outside of combat that will affect your standing with your house/merc group? also, this may have already been covered, will you be limiting lance tonnage so that we get realistic lance makeups that are diverse and really drive role warefare instead of a wall of Atlas' lumbering toward us?

Thanks,

Dean

To start a Merc Corp, will you have to have a set number of players with you, or can you travel around as a lone gun for hire till people join your banner?

I noticed in Ask 1 that the Arrow IV system was not listed but the TAG system to guide Arrow IV is. Is this because it will be off the map and not available as a weapon system for players or something else?

Will skins you have unlocked be avalible for all mech's or will each mech have its own set of unique skins.

Also

How will the Clan Invasion play out in game will it be PvE (Players as the Inner Sphere v AI/ Developers as the Clans) or PVP Where Players have the chance to play as the Clan vs other players.

What kind of items will you be selling in the cash shop, or in game store? Will it be all cosmetic or will you be able to buy better mechs or weapons?

Question 1. Will MWO have protection against people generating multiple accounts or bot accounts and potentially using this to swindle XP\c-bills\match-fixing etc.?

Posted Image

Question 2. Depending on system implemented addressing question 1, will it be possible to have multiple accounts\computers from the one internet connection playing simultaneously? (ie. Friends\family all playing online from same locale)

Question 3. Will there be an offline\LAN\training mode, and a confirmed methods of testing of variants with\without system\weapon load-out purchase?

We miss you too Nubnub.

Hey!
Hope my english is good enough to understand my question...

My question is:

Centurion and Hunchback, two of the mechs you released so far have both 50 tons of weight and with (4-6-0) the same movement capacities, wich means same type of reactor. On your videos you say that you can add and remove every weapon and armor so as jumpjets, ammo and heatsinks... (reactors not i think..., say if i am wrong)
So if you have them "nude" they are the same (ok i know centurion lacks some arm actuators, but as long as hands are useless...and yeah, the "look" is different too...)
What i mean is you can easily make a Hunchback out of a Centurion and vice versa...
So where is the sense of releasing this two mechs?
Wouldn´t it be logical to release a different type of medium mech or a different 50 ton mech like a Trebuchet?
The variety of game would increase more than in the release of two "nude twins"...


This is not Mechwarrior3 where all mechs were you can strip mechs to nothing and rebuild them up.

The Centurion and Hunchback most likely have different hardpoints.
It is likely that the Hunchback can only mount ballistic weapons in the right torso whereas the Centurion can only mount ballistic is in the right arm. Weapons mounted in different DO make a difference in targetting.

Other possible ideas would be that they have a different torso twist range, acceleration/deacceleration and different size hit-boxes.

Will you ever ask the players for new types of mechs/weapons and stuff or ask for newer idea's? to imporve the game based off a non-biased set up? like new mech models new weapons what they would do a story or somthing idk but im good at all that and have been in 4 betas so far and have reported like 20 bugs so far ^.^
