If I had money, I'd get this. I like that they're keeping the Clan mechs out of it for a bit, too. I've started replaying MW4:Mercs with a control setup similar to MWOs so I won't be totally lost when they finally let plebeians like me in for open beta.

Which, hopefully, will still be sometime this summer. Are they still on track for that, or has it been pushed back to a more vague "when it's ready?"

It's going to be a few months more at least until open beta.

I don't think it was ever set for release this summer sadly. Maybe you were thinking of the Founder's early access date? That was August 7th.

That's probably the case and I'm remembering inaccurately. Oh well, haha! Thanks for the reply.

Alright, I was hoping you guys could give some opinions or share some ideas on upgrading comps to run this monster.

Here's what I'm planning to upgrade my system to:

Intel i7 2600 3.4ghz
Asus Nvidia GTX 560
8gb ram
1.5TB HD

PREEEEEETY sure that can run this very well... but still not 100% sure. It'll cost about $711 though, with free shipping.

Hrm, could you give me a bit more detail on how well that computer runs? Like... what are the settings you run Mechwarrior at? And what about Shogun 2? Things like that. It'll help me know what to expect and plan if I need something stronger.

Am I allowed to disclose that I'm signing a non-disclosure agreement?

The whole concept of paying to sign an NDA has somewhat soured me on this game, and definitely steered me away from spending anything on a Founder's package.  I'm not normally in closed betas; is this kind of thing typical in the industry now?

You've always had to sign an NDA when you were in a closed beta. Just think of it as paying them in Kickstarter.

That's how I considered it.

It certainly is quite souring though, being asked to spend money on a product, then not being allowed to talk about it.

Yah, it sounds like minecraft with content, you have obviously missed the point, people dont like content, they like different coloured blocks.
Seems to work fine with my copy. As soon as I loaded the human caravan came by and the world burst into fire.
