In case the thought of purchasing a game before its release wasn't thrilling enough, MechWarrior Online has now gone and given you the opportunity to tell your friends that you're participating in "Project Phoenix." It may sound like an initiative to raise you from the dead upon your departure from this world, but really, it's a fairly standard MMO pre-order program.
So what's the deal, anyway? The $20 tier will net you one classic battlemech, while the most expensive $80 tier includes all four mechs and 90 days of Premium membership. Or you could, you know, not pay anything, because this is a free-to-play game and all. But if you've been enjoying the fun in open beta and intend to keep playing upon MWO's looming official release, Project Phoenix could add to your adventures in the competitive world of laser-shooty robots. And keep note: if you pre-order before July 25, you get an additional 30 days of Premium time, too.
