I feel like several of the 3 times should be 1 time, but since all the rewards are small, not a big deal. Overall, though, fun stuff, wish we had more achievements along these lines as well.

Have a total Match Time of 10 hours throughout the course of the event.

This...may be a bit too hard...


Edit: just thinking

An average match time of 10 min...so about 60 matches...and than there is fw

and during an earlier event i did about 45 cw matches, so it is definitely doable.

Wow, this is quite different. I hope it all tracks correctly, because I see a lot of this taking a long time.

And how do some of these count? I.E. the whole "Super Powers" section? Can you get more than one per match, or 11 matches where you meet the requirements?

well, thats an interesting challenge, some of them might need teammate to cooperate to get it ("lance formation", protected medium / light).
Getting savior kill,.. in purpose.. this i think will be hard

I couldn't call them challenges if there was no effort required.

This will be funny watching everyone run around in third person view.

Some people should. That's a damned good deal - 70% off stock prices. That's the cheapest I've ever seen PGI sell anything.

I wish I didn't own every Mech (except Vindicators) just so I could buy them now :)

(No, I'm not buying Vindicators at any discount.)

Yeah, read the page, that's explained.

I don't typically track progress. I just play and what happens...happens :)

I feel like this event is full of many references and I don't understand any of them. Posted Image

My only major complaint is that MWO events are usually about random pop culture or real life references. Like most people on this forum, I feel like PGI keeps dropping the ball when it comes to relying on LORE. There's a lot of lore in Battletech and it would be a lot cooler to have events that built on some kind of pre-existing narrative from Battletech lore, or even a completely new storyline that fit with Battletech lore.

Make up some stuff about Clans and Inner Sphere units testing out experimental tech or something. Whatever.

We just need more events that have to do with Battletech and not That 70's Show or Halloween.

PS: This wouldn't be such a big issue if there was more lore in the game itself, by the way. But MWO has zero information about factions, mechs, planets, etc. It's completely stripped of lore, basically.

This is just a great event. Sounds like pure, total fun.

I'm so happy to give this a try. First time i'm totally blown away by an event. Great job PGI.
