HUH? lol how can u awnser this without knowing the quality/type of gameplay, or anything else? Its not something you go into with a plan without knowing anything about it. Also the survey refuses to accept that I haven't played any mechwarrior games in the past, and won't let me advance until I've said 'yes' to all the questions and picked one of the games on the list, for the questions related to previous mechwarrior games. Also find this amusing. But it will be intresting, be stepping into territory I haven't touched(Althoug I suspect mechwarrior gameplay would be similar to ace online yet restricted to the ground?)

In answer to the "How much would you pay?" question I just chose "Whatever it takes to get what I want". This is the best answer as it doesn't obligate you as "Whatever it takes" could be absolutely nothing. This answer also doesn't imply that you plan to be a freeloader either. I'm not saying I won't buy stuff if it turns out to be a good game but they will have to prove to me two very important things first. That the game is a quality product that will be around for the long haul. That the game isn't "Pay to Win" with over powered weapons or perks you can only get by using the Item Shop.
