I pre-loaded the game earlier today and though I didn't have time to play then, I took a sneak peek and saw several thousand Hawken points on my account. I figured they were to get me started on outfitting my first mech like in Alpha 2. I didn't spend them then though as like I said didn't have much time.

Now, I want to start playing and suddenly all my Hawken points are gone! What to do, what to do?? Gladly, my Meteor points are still intact though...

It's a BETA, expect them not to be there until they balance the game more.

Ehm... did you actually read my post? the Hawken points are what you get by playing the game and killing people/capturing points, they're like spendable XP and every player gets a starting amount. The Meteor points is what you can buy when the game ships.

The servers aren't live, so you won't be able to play.
Also, the pre-downloaded build is not the final one you'll be playing tomorrow. We should be patching before the servers go live for everyone. I think you'll notice several changes after that patch.

Remember, Beta's are not the finished game nor should they be used as a demo. We'll be changing things between tests and some things may be removed and some things added.

I was under the impression during Alpha 2 those people were only given to try out the other mechs and that when live or in closed beta we'll start with zero.

What you see today isn't necessarily what will be there tomorrow! ;)

I've also lost all HAWKEN points plus my friend's list got erased... Is that a feature during BETA? :huh:

i hope we get some meteor point to begin with when the game goes live so that we can at least deck out 1 mech as we wish. that would make for a great beginning (and also spare me from using that incredibly ugly TV mech :P )

Just tell me the assault model is just a place holder. If you expect me to pilot my parents old TV set, something has gone very wrong.

Yep, all my Hawken points are gone now, along with those mechs I bought. And I had just started getting attached to my Rocketeer... Bought her a paint job and everything...

I actually find the TV cockpit hilarious, especially because of the windshield wiper.

Welcome to testing, things will change around you, sometimes quite suddenly. If you don't like it, come back when it's in open beta.

We're wiping the database of all Alpha 2 data before the start of Closed Beta.
