You could even try going outside, and see if you can survive the deadly gaze of Amun-Ra.

What is this 'going outside' game you speak of_ Is it any fun, does it include mechs and shooting faceless whiners_

HAB was never billed as a way to make the game perfectly bug-free before the patch. It is meant to help developers get better testing and more concentrated feedback. That doesn't mean there won't be any issues, just hopefully less. Unfortunately it looks like this time they found an issue at the last minute that neither testers nor devs could find or predict earlier.

This was just the first round of HAB testing. The plan is that after the patch is released, they'll continue to work on the next set of tweaks and new content that will then be tested by another set of HAB players within the next few months. It's an ongoing process.

This i's overly harsh on HAB and Meteor.  I would have also thought they would be firm w/ their patch changes so I'm surprised to see them back off on figures (Health boost going from 15/tuning point to 10, Dodge cool down tuning adjusted, Transmitter removed).  Perhaps no one in HAB complained loud enough but I'm glad they're showing flexibility.  

Oh, believe me, we complained. Loudly.  Ultimately, the decision to remove content that was planned is up to Adhesive, not the testers.  While our input was taken into consideration and did lead to some changes, the build that we'll all be experiencing over the next couple of weeks is not representative of what most of HAB1 wanted from this patch.  With that being said, ADH understands our concerns and plans to use our input to balance the game and make beneficial updates over the next couple of months.  

Now let's all calm down, take some happy pills, and camp noob servers until ADH brings the Ascension test realm online.

Again please do not take my post as criticism of HAB but rather praise for ADH.  So many organizations insist on sticking to their guns so I'm happy they are taking feedback even at this late hour.  I doubt tuning/game balance issues are reasons for delay though; most likely it is technical/server issues so again I'm pleased they still devote some attention to gameplay.

BTW, this is obvious but I guess you're not going to put out your video or spreadsheets today
Sad Thursday.

Keep in mind that any progress made during this test will not be saved.

Do garage acquisitions stick_  Id est, during test weekend I buy pink Wellingtons for Grenadier.  After test will my ‘Nader still sport sartorially offensive footwear_

I would highly suggest you don't buy anything with MC over the weekend, as a precaution.

I now have a bad feelings about incoming patch. I will write down every subsystem & weapon I currently own (including actual pricing). Something somewhere got to go wrong and disappear I'm afraid.

I'll recommed U guys do the same!

I've got 2 tuition classes during the weekend, still I'd like to participate in stress testing
My concern is whether I have to download the whole game again (at least 2.4 GB) since I have a limited data plan. Wait make that the whole country
Edit :- I meant, Will I have to download a separate client (of ~2.4 GB) in the weekend ONLY for testing purpose, And have to download another 2.4 GB for the new client on Tuesday_ OR, on Tuesday, will you just update the client which was downloaded in the weekend, therefore saving me some valuable data_
Thanks :-)

adh, maybe take more time and  create another HAB to be completely safe_ No need to hurry, quality should be on first place in open betas.

MJ was black_

MJ was born of a native american father and japanese mother.

Due to the pressure of the music industry he received multiple cosmetics surgery at a very young age in order to appear black, because such a mix would never appeal to the consumers of soul music( the target audience of the jackson 5 ). At a later age when he started his solo career his music producer once again put pressure for him to change his appearance to please the main consumers of pop music. Slowly he became white. However the extensive surgeries he had received in his youth complicated things slightly. Since this all further surgeries only served to make him look like an alien, he was forced to stay away from the public eye as to not disgust his audience. He was finally killed by  a doctor paid by he music industry because he was on the verge of telling the truth. However the US government was aware of the music industries intent and swapped MJ with a decoy right before the assassination. He now lives in detroit, with black elvis, black james dean and black marilin monroe, under the speudonym of alan smithee.

Honestly, who didn't see this coming_ It's becoming a pattern
Hope I have the time to participate in the stress test 110%. I've only been able to log in about once every other week recently.
-Scratch that, I'll make time!
