I think that whatever lance I happen to be in will need to be called Promethean Lance. Mess, NF, Wolfie, you with me?

Most Definitely Rock.. Hopefully Wolfie pops in soon as I've not seen him drop by recently.

You guys know I'm always in for this. That sounds like a great plan, Rock.

When does this come out? What are all of the details? It sounds like an online game, is there monthly fees? Does it work the same as how MW3/MW4 did with our online stuff?

Wolfie! (Hrrmm not sure we should still call you that, guess you're not so much a kid anymore ;) )

The game is persistent online and free to play. Its that newish model where there are things you can spend RL money on to get things in game, but sounds like nothing game breaking.

Looks sort of like MW3/4 did but with a bit more use for all different size mechs and no clans, at least to start.

Closed beta invites started to go out on the 25th. I didn't get one yet. Don't know if anyone else has. No more invites will be going out until after E3.

Pretty much all I know so far.
