Beta

[Valorfall]

Who's all in it besides me?

[loakii]

In what exactly....

[Valorfall]

In the beta for mech warrior online. I just got my email invite.

[ButchCassady]

I am.

[Valorfall]

well add me A4VFallen. I think I tried to add you.... in game name butchcassidy?

[loakii]

Oh I applied guess I am not cool enough to receive invite


Sent from my iPhone because I have that option

[ButchCassady]

Haha sorry loakii you haven't got your invite yet, but I'm sure you're cool enough. Yeah my pilot name is straight up ButchCassady.

[loakii]

I may have to wait till game officially comes out or serious ponder a founder status

[loakii]

So I received a email that said I hadn't accepted my beta access yet and to go into my profile and download the beta client.. Well I did and it said I was Beta pending Status. So I replied back to the original email, and stated I received an erroneous email and what the deal was I in Beta or Not.. They replied back

"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!

Please enjoy the game and help us make an even better product as Closed Beta continues, as after we have fixed our error we are closing the door again.

We look forward to seeing you on the battlefield!"

SO IT LOOKS like I AM IN

[ButchCassady]

Nice what time you guys usually on?

[loakii]

I get a chance to play about 1800 MST... I cant add friends in game says invalid every time

[ButchCassady]

Yeah I'm having trouble adding people as well. Its probably just a bug in beta. MST 1800 for me is 0100 London time, I could definitely do that on the weekends. It would be a little tough during the week with work.

[loakii]

Ok so how does one find each other online if the friend option is broken in beta


Sent from my iPhone because I have that option

[ButchCassady]

I put a ticket in, but it's probably an already known problem. Just have to wait until they patch it.

[Valorfall]

I have your guys on my friends list.

[loakii]

I have your guys on my friends list.

I wonder why you were able too and I cant

[loakii]

and right after I post that last comment I log in and have friend request waiting....cool

[ButchCassady]

On the MWO website it worked but for me I still don't think in game my social list is working.

[saviger]

I'm in the MWO beta as well, got myself a Founders Hunchie!

[ButchCassady]

Nice! what's your pilot's name? The Hunchback is my work horse money maker, good choice.

[loakii]

I actually don't like the founders mech except for the Jenner. I gave abused me two ravens awaiting for the third

[ButchCassady]

I'm not really any good with the scouts. I hoping that may change when they introduce the Flea into the fight.

[loakii]

I had to severely mod a scout to my liking. I upgraded the engine to the fastest and lightest I could so it zooms fast

[ButchCassady]

Not sure how you guys want to do this, but MWO has teamed up with this website C3 for easy team speak. I found it out last night by trying to create a group on the main page under the Social tab down at the bottom right. It took an e-mail and two seconds to download, seems to be one hell of an easy way for us to group up and set up a comm channel........ it works in Beta too.

[Valorfall]

I've has C3 for like a week and a half.

[loakii]

I downloaded the program I haven't set up a account yet I also need a headset that won't piss my wife off

[ButchCassady]

I just got in those turtle beach X12s that work for PC and Xbox 360. I haven't use them yet but they were only 50 bones and over 600 people on amazon thought they were amazing.

[loakii]

I have a set of turtles but they only fit the Xbox ... Mostly if my wife hates when I talk on headset because she doesn't know if talking to her or game... That why in cod I rarely talk but always listen

[ButchCassady]

Open Beta October 16th!

[ButchCassady]

Nevermind it got pushed back......I would rather take their time on this before releasing to the public anyway. You guys want to get some practice matches going?

[loakii]

They needed to push back the open beta after the stress test they put on Thursday... That shit was miserable to wade through while playing


Sent from my iPhone because I have that option

[ButchCassady]

I had to stop because the FPS destroyed me, I completely understand why they did it.

[ButchCassady]

I guess it's official again the 29th, this monday, is open beta.

[ButchCassady]

The very last reset and open beta starts tomorrow. After that what you spend your MC on is permanent and all xp/c-bills won't get wiped anymore. ;)

[loakii]

So much fun. One last reset


Sent from my iPhone because I have that option

[ButchCassady]

Does anyone want to setup a time and day this weekend to get a little action going as a team now thats it's open beta?

[loakii]

I am totally down

[ButchCassady]

Well there's one, you name the time loakii what works best for you.

[loakii]

Well there's one, you name the time loakii what works best for you.

I just got home... Shit hit the fan at work today, I cant give great time for getting online to play.... that what my life is all about playing it by ear

[ButchCassady]

Hey it's cool man shit happens, hope things settle down for you at work.

[ButchCassady]

The Cataphract is playable in beta and now has a hero version of it.
