So the BOO drone is back for new players_ I paid for it the first time and was told I couldn't keep it. I don't want to pay for it AGAIN. Kinda miffed about that one.

Edit: B00 drone is back as a purchasable through the Nemesis Bundle. I don't need to spend $30 on a bundle that gets me a bunch of mechs I already have, but I do want that B00 drone. And I paid for that B00 drone once already.

Shenanigans.

That trailer!  It's oh so beautiful!  Thank you for the 1080p goodness!; I was waiting for that.  [HWK]en team, you rock!  And with headphones on, the music!  I got chills watching that.  Now, on to 4K resolution... when_! lol  Never satisified, right_   I'm kidding... but only a little.

Bugs so far.

#1 sometimes unable to swap incinerator weapons.

#2 Switched weapons during the launch lag and got this http://cloud-4.steam...79641884849F46/ on a rocketeer chassi even though i chose incinerator.

#3 VI emblems not available.

The animation for the new thruster YAROST is way to slow. By the time repair scan starts happening the repair is almost done.

+1 on this. I'm getting itchy to finally get the full benefits of something I paid for over a year ago.

Congrats to the team!  Even though I am still looking forward to the day it goes back to being a F2P game on Steam, I recognize this to be an important step!  Here's to a bright future for the best mech game on the market!  I even ordered the Genesis graphic novel to celebrate!  

Now if we could just get word on when the live action web series begins....  

Update: considering this roll-out isn't F2P, Hawken is already doing quite well according to Steam's statistics: (current players/peak players today):

2,074    2,099         HAWKEN

This puts it around the 60ths most-played game on Steam today (so far).  Nice!

Oculus Rift support is really buggy now, though :\
