We're also announcing that we'll be offering pre-sale bundle packages to kick off this event. HAWKEN fans can join the Vanguard Initiative by purchasing one of four bundles. Bundles will be pre-sold at a discount here on PlayHawken.com and will be priced at $5, $15, $30, and $60. Items and currencies granted by these bundles will be in pilots' mech garages at Open Beta on December 12, 2012 (12/12/12).

Patience, everypony. The servers have been up less than four hours, and there have probably been a few glitches on the back end to deal with along the way.

But, yes. Otherwise, I agree: Shut up and take my money, Adhesive Meteor man.

Mine as well. I'd really like to know what's in it, and what I can use to pay for it.

Hopefully we get a lot more ridiculous looking mechs in the coming builds;Weapon skins would be awesome.

With only a few matches under my belt I'm enjoying CBE2.

CBE3 is coming with new content.

MMOBomb (and me, for showing you) are your new best friends. As of the time of this post, they have about 6,000 keys left.

And there's no specific date for when the next test after this one will occur, but the devs have already said in the forum (if you're too lazy to search, so am I) during this test period that there will be a large pile of changes between the current state of the game and the next test. They were cagey about the specifics, but more tests are going to happen, and as we get closer to 12.12.12, the game's going to be more and more together.

I'll definitely throw down the $5, maybe more depending on what comes with the bundles. Come on Meteor, the suspense is killing me.

Depending on what the bundles are I'm definitly buying one. if there is one for 60 that is worth it i'll buy it. I think the game already is worth paying for IMO, not sure 60 dollars, but maybe 30.

And I don't mean it not being worth 60 dollars as an insult.. a lot of games are way overpriced for the content they give you these days.

Exactly my thoughts. Which is why I'm not going to commit to anything till I see the package contents myself.
