Mechwarrior Online open beta delayed

Postponement due to stability, matchmaking, and balancing issues.

Pirahna Games has announced that the Mechwarrior Online open beta will be pushed back to an undisclosed date.

According to an official post on the game's forums, lead designer Paul Inouye said that the game has matchmaking, game balance and connection stability issues. "[Pirahna Games] agree that the game's current state of stability is not allowing us to get the latest experience across to new and veteran players alike. This is a short push back on the date and will depend on the stability and playability of the build."

A patch for connection stabilities has been resolved at this point in time. The full details on the fixes for the rest of the game are on the forum post.

The open beta for Mechwarrior Online was originally due to start on October 16. For more information on the game, check out GameSpot's coverage on the title.

So they decided to wait until the day it was supposed to beta-drop to announce that they were delaying the beta? Me thinks they could have figured that out sooner and said something about it then.

 @DarkLord Actually, they posted the announcement (and sent an email to beta testers) on Friday.
