Sigh... really wish I could talk about the game.  :-\

Anyway, Scriptwolf and I have been raging across inner sphere in all sorts of mechs. I think we ran the entire gamut in a relatively short session.

Doublepost for warning.

For those of you in the beta, I recommend you stay away until the next patch (or ostensibly forever) as the devs decided to go the completely other direction with the income levels. Maybe they want to see how many morons are willing to grind 40 games to buy one mech (their words). In either case, don't encourage them.

I and apparently a lot of other people just got an mistaken newsletter saying we'd been accepted to beta.  Apparently the devs decided to make good on it:

Your receiving this email because we made a piloting error. You have just recently received an email that was meant to go out to only all our great Closed Beta testers. So we really apologize for making this mistake and hope you will forgive us.
 
In order to help with that forgiveness, we have decided to grant you beta access as of this email!

So if you weren't in yet, check your email.

That might have also overloaded their servers... I can't get to the website.

Aren't free to play games just delightful? I think they'll fix it somewhat, but I don't expect it to get too much better.

Piranha almost seems like they're trying to enter into my "Colossal Retards" tier of game development companies.

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.

Why couldn't they just settle for a Mercenaries remake with functional multiplayer? I'd hash out a cool 60 bucks for that.

I'd even settle for a game with a nice singeplayer campaign. :)

I'm really considering pursuing a refund on the founder's pack my wife got me. My confidence in the developers has been sliding for months.

Yeah when I saw the 40 games grind just for a Commando which is by far The Cheepest mech in the game, now imagine how much a atlas at 6,000,000 would take this is bullshit.

God damn it just when I was really enjoying it

I most likely would have bought it if it had *any* single-player component.

I got in from that email mishap, but I now have realized that my computer is woefully out of date :(

I miss mechwarrior 4 when everything was blocky and ran great

Let me know if you manage to get a refund. I want one too right now.
