Greetings everyone!

 

I'm Leonis and I'll be the producer and community contact for all things Metal Assault!

 

I am new to Metal Assault, so please bear with me as I learn, but am also very excited to be here!

 

We've been doing a number of in-house test periods, making sure everything we can see up front is working and polished. As we clean up some of the dust, and get ready for the official launch, I'm happy to be able to announce that registration is now open! (www.playmetalassault.com)

 

If you're new to WarpPortal, please feel free to sign up for a new account, and for any existing WarpPortal players, there's a link up at the top of the registration, you can use to create and link a Metal Assault account to your WarpPortal account!

 

Special Notice!

All pre-registrations up until our launch date will receive a special package.

The package will contain:

  • No.8 hot key opener
    Unlocks the '8' hotkey bar shortcut.
  • No.9 hot key opener
    Unlocks the '9' hotkey bar shortcut.
  • No.0 hot key opener
    Unlocks the '0' hotkey bar shortcut.
  • Inventory Expansion
    Unlocks a Character Inventory Slot
  • Personal Storage License
    Unlocks a Personal Storage Slot

 

To answer a few immediate questions I've seen being asked.

 

Q: When will Metal Assault launch?
A: We do not currently have a date set, though we're hard at work getting everything setup and ready to launch as soon as possible! Keep watch, as the announcements will go out and move quickly once they do!

 

Q: Where can I download Metal Assault?
A: The installation client is currently being built and tested.

 

Q: Will there be any stress test period and can I help?

A: We are currently considering a couple options, but while we're still getting things setup and ready, nothing is available to the public quite yet. I'm excited to get you all in-game and playing as soon as possible!

Hello,

 

I already have a Warpportal account (I play R.O.S.E online). 

 

Do I need to register a new account to get the special package?

You can register your MA account using your existing WP account and you will receive the special package too.  You do not need to make a new WP account.

As far as I am aware, yes, they will be permanent unlocks. I'm still working with the dev team to put the package together while we get ready for launch.

No you do not need to register for a new account. Registering for a Metal Assault account is all you need to do. It won't matter if you're an existing or new player!

Registering for a Metal Assault account is all you need to do. It won't matter if you have an existing WP account or are a brand new player! You will still be eligible for the pre-registration package, as long as the Metal Assault account was registered prior to our launch date!

Hi, if everything gonna be Permanent with that special package, it should be 'Non-tradable'.
So none would take advantage of it.

Yes, we have plans to have it on Steam.

I'll have to get back to you on whether it will be region locked or not. I have not received any information on that yet.

Is there going to be a closed beta (with wipe) or are we jumping straight into launch?
If Beta; I hope there's events. I love earning stuff for launch doing beta events (eg. Hit level 15 in beta, earn commemorative hat/title/etc). No-reward wiped betas are a hype kill.

We're not planning to have a beta period. At best, we're looking at a soft launch with some selective client distributions to do some initial stress testing and feedback sessions that will not necessarily be the actual launch date announcement. This will be in the event there might be some additional downtime or fixes that are discovered beyond our initial tests and checks. Most of our tests and checks are basic, and to ensure the new server configuration/hosting is all setup correctly. I'm sure there's a lot of content nuances we'll miss we're going to keep an eye out for as feedback from the community. :)

So, question so I can be sure. If our WarpPortal account was made via the registration form at the Metal Assault website, then we don't have to do anything else but wait, correct? Not having a Metal Assault section in the game accounts page confuses me because I'm unsure if my account is already linked to Metal Assault, but since my name already seems to be taken, it seems like it's linked. But I want to be sure.

 

EDIT: Apparently, while there isn't a section for it in the games page, there is in the account overview. Nevermind!
