If you die before your team wins will it not count for you.

I hope I can find time to drop 60 times in the next 72 hours. Hope I don't have to get "food poisoning"... :)

Sounds easy but with the way matchmaking's been of late, it'll take a hundred matches to make that happen. Nothing fills you with confidence when your team mates spin around in the starting area or trudge off without a word in some odd direction. At least if they said "I'm new, what should I be doing now?" we can get somewhere. :)

This is something I can get into and be a shocker for anyone who doesn't look into the MWO site and finds the holo waiting for them. I do hope they let you get the wins as a team and not solo. However both ways seems like a fun thing to do is just drop and try to win. No max kills or anything ... just 25 wins.

So, many people playing the game? Numbers not dropping like a rock?

Testing the achievement system? Sweet.

Do you have to be solo, or is team play ok?

Awesome, I love it when something like this done AFTER they break the game for me, instead of AFTER they've fixed the issue. Fantastic.

What? During the work week? Well, let me go tell my manager. Some projects will have to get bumped, but hey priorities are priorities, right?

Right? Maybe they should've made the prize something that isn't already a thing people have paid for. Oh well.

PSA:
You can drop in teams. I did team drops, our team won, it counted.

Anyone know the lag on count updates? I've done 2 wins and neither are showing yet. Fifteen minutes like tournament scoreboard updates perhaps?

Never mind, just refreshed and both appeared. Maybe it's on some kind of periodic update schedule or something.

Like the tournaments, I expect it takes 15 minutes for the match data to get processed and make its way to the win counter page.

I'm not sure I want anything in my cockpit other than controls. But hey, I am up for a challenge. 2 down, 23 to go!

Cheesebuilds go! I have a better idea than what they have. Count how many cheesebuilds, boats, and poptarters you see in 25 matches then post it. We'll tally the sum total at the end of the week and divide it by the number of people still playing and figure out just how long the game has until it's totally run into the ground! Quick Fix? Bring in heat penalties. Real ones. Stop with these lame achievements and tournaments.

I have a better idea! Let's count how many people whine about poptarts, boats and cheesebuilds in 25 games.

Seriously though, it is about time PGI had an event that is not strictly a solo event.
