I spent all my points all at once during day 2 just after realizing I could play more than 3 mechs. Below average K/D does not grant a great return of credits/points either and I wanted a respec.

EDIT: Just now realizing this is probably OT given discussion, I'm curious if they did anything to our garage in Beta, or gave some leeway with credits. Patching atm.

Alpha is still covered by NDA.

I dont really get Alpha STILL being covered by NDA.
At the time, yeah, I understand but now we're all playing Beta, why we can't talk about Alpha_

Because they said so.

Because it is your LEGAL obligation not to talk about it.
If you don't like it, you can either violate it and risk getting banned (at the least) or get a lawyer and take it up with the devs.

If people have a problem with it then they shouldn't have agreed to the NDA contract present in order to download the alpha client.

The only mistake I made in Alpha that I'm certain of was that I didn't play it nearly enough (I'm trying to make amends in Beta though..)
There is no time like time wasted...

I don't have a problem with the NDA (I wasn't even on alpha), just wandering why it is still up...
I mean, can't people discuss how the game got better, or how they rather someting that was in alpha, not beta...
Why, is it ilegal to ask about NDA too_

Possibly so we don't have threads like this one. They seem to have their game as they like it, and want you to comment on this stage, the beta stage. You were chosen to test, they tell you how, when, and where. They tell you to focus on the beta stage. That's all that needs to be said.

An alpha is never meant to be representative of the final product as it's usually done when extreme changes could occur. Alpha is not the game they were trying to make. Beta is though, so just pretend that the alpha didn't exist and tell them how to improve from here.

Im pretty sure they wouldnt mind if you just said "i liked the old sharpshooter in alpha". Now my Alphas know what i mean by that but if i were to say WHY and then compare it to the new one, then i'm sure that would be breaking NDA. Oh god the screenshots i wish i could post :(

You'd technically be breaking NDA. The only thing you can say was that you were in it. Though I've never seen them call out anyone for mentioning small things like that.
