OMFG i have been accepted into the beta!!

Been in the beta for months, haven't play much of it. Wasn't particularly impressed, mostly because i had no idea what was going on since none of the parts have (had?) descriptions, and it seemed that only the atlas was useable. It's probably changed by now though, i just don't feel like reinstalling the beta client.

for anyone interested. mechwarrior online announced that if you now buy a founders package, $30,60,120, depending on how much stuff you get, you are automatically granted beta access. it is still in the closed beta phase.

they have just announced in MWO that the founders packages, $30/60/120 which when purchased gives you access to the closed beta, will go off sale sept 6th.

mwo is almost open beta. right now, anyone can get a closed beta key. just apply.

word on the grapevine is that the game is going open beta on tuesday the 16th. it is FtP. if you did not buy a founders package, you will start with 4 trial mechs that you can not alter, eg customize weapon loadout, but you will have no repair bills. eventually you will earn enough c-bills to buy your own mech that you can do with as you please.

well open beta has been pushed back. they put out a patch a few days ago that had a few bugs in it. mainly, when you killed an atlas, something happened in the net code that caused the game to lag out and lose all sorts of packets. this problem was fixed and the patch came out today, but the devs still want to hold on the open beta.

as of now, there is no release date for open beta.

MWO went open beta today. anyone can now join.
