Feindfeuer posted:But only because they have the ability to have an obscene amount of armor on those legs compared to tracks which can't be armored with skirts or anything for some obscure reason. The ingame explanation only makes sense if you don't think about it and just accept it. I'm fine with that, but it's far from a good explanation. It's actually stupid easy to throw a track on a tank.

Some of the Gundam stuff is really nice, the 08th MS team communicates a feel similar to what I get from playing Battletech or Mechwarrior. Including looking like a horrible 80s show, even though it was released in the mid 90s. Same for the original series if you can get over the horrible animations, but even those are not worse than the Mechwarrior cartoon series. Which is terrible, and which I love with all my heart.

Mitch confirmed on a Ask the Devs thread that the beta will be about 5gb in size. No confirmation on time available, but a KS update will go out beforehand.

The only bad part about it being released on pacific time is that it means there's basically no chance it'll be available before I have to work here on the East Coast.

I have a feeling it will be around 1 PM EDT/10AM PDT. If not, probably later. Obviously that's when Steam updates but I doubt it will work like that because this isn't a normal release, it's going out to about 25k people, and the keys are all off-Steam.

Just to make sure I properly understand all of this, we'll be getting a KS update email that contains our key (or a link to it) sometime today?

The email will tell you your key is available, you'll have to access your BackerKit for the actual key.

According to the official forums there is a MechLab button on the main menu, sighted by the first video in the wild (it's French). http://community.battletechgame.com/forums/threads/7102

They used BackerKit for the Shadowrun games (at least some of them?) and it worked fine there too.

Until two weeks before the close of Beta, you can head here to become a Late Backer at the MechWarrior level and gain Beta access. https://battletech.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders " So if people are still on the fence, give it a few hours and you'll start getting some goon first impressions.
