Are we going to get a private subforum to talk about this game while the NDA is still in effect?
No. We only do that if the developer/publisher gives us special permission. |

It's really not the same. This game totally deserves its own f13 forum (not a just thread) when the NDA will drop.

Lower than I'd expect but not surprised to see Legendary outselling the others.
On an unrelated note fuck CTDs and lockups.

I think these numbers are only from people who have posted on the forums, so there are probably more. |

I'd settle for a list of folks in-game name, so I know who to shoot.  |

Yeah. Sure we can be patient, but damn this game screams for playing it with people you know.

As for goonswarm, they are about the only guild I've ever seen manage to even touch the serious business part of an mmo using casual players so no idea why all the sand is getting in vaginas about them.
Just about everything I've heard about them paints them as nerdy bullies, people who want to have fun by ruining your day, and fuck with your shit on a personal level because lol internets or whatever. This is stuff coming from both their enemies as well as the Goons themselves. I've never encountered them myself as far as I know, so I may be way off base, but that's the image of them that I'm getting. *shrug* They are that but what you said doesn't invalidate what eldeac says. To quote someone else in a serious discussion about the PVPing in Eve Online. 3. We want absolutely nothing to do with your nullsec politics. With the exception of the Goons, you people treat your members like garbage. You lie about your ship replacement program, you behave like killmail nazzi's, you don't respect your members RL priorities, you scream and rage on coms, you demand 24/7 mandatory fleet ops, and you use your members as disposable meat shields. Say what you want about the Goons, but at least they treat their own right. All others are horrible.
In short: WE PLAY EVE TO HAVE FUN, NOT AS A SECOND JOB AND CERTAINLY NOT TO BE SCREAMED AT NOR CHASTIZED. |
OP is assuming its somewhat of a design-goal of eve to make players happy.
this is however not the case.

Dammit.
In entirely unrelated to game news, why would you release a 'Mech that is all but useless without an XL engine ? And then, you know, equip it with a standard engine as standard ?
It makes no sense, unless Bear is driving.

There was a post somewhere along the lines of 'all founders are in closed beta' so yes they can say they are in beta.
I've always been fond of the name Galen Shannow when playing mech games.

We can totally say we are in the beta. But I don't think we can say our handles.

Just a question but how can saying your in game handle be construed as breaking Nda or what sort of f'ed up Nda regards a game handle as topsecretinfo!!! ? |

Oh sweet. This just bluescreened my machine and now it won't startup. Just what I wanted to do, spend an hour troubleshooting and repairing.

I just wish i knew if this was good enough to be worth spending some money on a founders package. So sad that there is no way to find out if it is a decent mech game before buying....

Unless you are a big fan of mech based games there's no real reason to buy a package. They will be selling mechs that get a c-bill boost after launch so all you miss out on by not buying a founders package is a chance at the closed beta, a mech or mechs with a spiffy paint job and a forum title. If I hadn't prepurchased GW2 and Torchlight II, I probably would have bought one of the packages but I really haven't run across anything that makes me feel like I'll be missing out on something special by not being in the beta.

It is an awesome 'mech game. It is not a mecha game.
It is a MechWarrior game.
