I have no clue what is in your parentheses.. lol


fair enough, it is a fairly old technology that is somewhat unknown today.

IRC = Internet Relay Chat (old time chat room)
Software to access: mIRC or web based: Go to http://synirc.net , webchat, pick a name, change channel to #Hawken

The tool there harvests publicly posted beta keys which you then put on your PlayHawken account.
 
I was in the Alpha, and let me tell you, it's a pretty sweet game. They've got some playbalancing issues, and I'm not a huge fan of the limited customization options (compared to a MechWarrior game), but it's still fun as hell. It's far more of a twitch FPS than a true Mech game.
 
Hawken, War is a Machine A Free to Play Multiplayer, first person shooter Mech game for PC.

Closed beta begins Oct 26-29.
