Last year with each event you should be rewarded by hundreds MC, some free colors, tonns of cockpit items, mechbay(s) and some time one champion mech + mechbay and we all thank you for this PGI !!!!


2 weeks ago we could won 50mc, 30mcs, 20mcs also 100 MC for the last event and last mechbay i won was like 4 months ago ?


For this event WE HAVE TO GIVE MCs TO PGI ? Posted Image

For all the new players out there: XP conversion is not worth it. From the start it is better to spend c-bills to get your 'mechs and to get them well built. Modules have lesser importance and by the time you have your 'mechs kitted out sufficiently to warrant module usage you generally have sufficient GXP to unlock what you need.

'Mech bays and possibly heroes are a better investment IMO. I mostly have more GXP than I care or need to spend. Right now I am unlocking stuff because I can, not because I need to and soon will have all unlocked... in about a year of active play.

Sorry PGI, it is just so.

Thanks for the Double XP! Decided to buy like 10 chassis during the sales and it was getting out of hand to master them all :D

Just the most stupid Event ever. It's like milking the players to the max. Releasing Mechpacks for $55 every month isnt enough? A Event that wants us to spent 20k MC for totally useless GXP sounds almost offending to me. I have like 300k GXP I will never need cuz there's no more Mechs for xping or Modules to unlock, so why convert more? Better think about a GXP to MC converter -.-

Just a clarification: does double XP apply both to solo and CW, or to solo only? It doesn't specifically say on the event page, but many of the previous events were Quick Play only...

Why all the salt? You get double Mech-XP for free. Everything else is purely optional. If you want to exchange Mech-XP into Global-XP, you'll get a 50% discount - if not, you don't lose anything. What's not to like?

Double-XP-Event is OK. Thanks for the Chance to level all my New-Sale-Mechs by playing.

BUT:
why should I spend real money (MC) to get XPs, that I can get cheaper by playing the mech? I'm not sick enough to do this! Its a Trap for new pilots.


The game is for playing the mechs and getting better every game. Not for buying full-leveled Mechs!

Because, you are either...

1. Very rich
2. Very stupid
3. Both

But, Double XP's are always welcome..

I could take the 90$ it costs to complete the weekend challenge and buy a full blown mech package that includes-

12 mechs complete with mechbays
2 months of premium time
A crap ton of faction content with said package complete with titles and badges.

Or i could spend it on c-bill bundles and get 32,500,000 cbills.

This has "cash grab" smeared all over it.

This Weekend is a Double XP weekend for All modes! That's twice as much MC as you would normally earn!


So we're earning MC now?
Good to know.

Can´t understand the complainments. Well this exchange offer is some kind of weird but nobody is forced to exchange XP. So those who wanted to exchange should do it now and be happy about the bonus. All others (me included) should be happy about the doubled XP. Posted Image

I fully agree, if you don't want to spend MC on converting XP, then don't. Problem solved :)

Timing is good though, with all the recent sales I have plenty of new mechs that need skills unlocked.

Converting the full 20k MC of xp is not a good deal, as many have said. But if you like to have cockpit fluff items, converting 50k xp for 1000 MC gets you 3 cockpit items plus some consumables...which is certainly cheaper than if you were to buy those things without some sort of event/sale. Anything past the 50k xp/1000 MC point, is a pretty bad deal.

Thanks for the double XP, I will finish mastering my Warhammer. As for the conversion "challenge", I will pass, I can preorder two more Mech packs for less than $99.
