The pre-Phoenix timing is well calculated.

1. Grind 2XP on your mastered mechs.
2. Convert all your XP to GXP with real money.
3. Insta-Master your entire Overlord package for some quantity of MC.
4. Impress your friends with your Mastered Battlemaster!

I won't do it, but I'm sure there are those who will.

That's exactly what I intend to do. My time in This World is limited and waning fast, so I have to make the most of it while I can.

When you're my age, you don't mess around.

If it is "Double XP for all XP earned" quoting from the advertisement link.

Why am I only getting 2x on Win/Loss?

[GrandLocomon]

No sale this weekend? Would it have hurt to have both?

[Muffinator]

Something isn't working properly. I just won a match and got the following:

various xp: 1,122
1St victory of the day: 1,122
Subtotal: 2,244
Shouldn't I have got the 1st victory AND the 2x xp bonus?

And now in the mechlab the mech I won in still has the xp x2 icon showing?

Either you are much older than the average gamer, or you expect to die in your 50's.

I keep hoping they will add a cool thing I can use my GXP for, like making the Command Console do something.

False dichotomy: I am indeed much older than the average gamer, but I hope to survive long enough to see MW6 ... a/k/a a robust Community Warfare

Still not sure of the odds on that, but in the meantime I digress:

I too would gladly pay Tuesday for a functioning Command Console today.

The double xp is working for me. I believe the confusion comes from the example. Were it says "e.g." that means for example not only. So the win and lose are just a for instance. I am receiving double xp for all actions that grant xp.

The double EXP it's a server valor modified, thus all players earn Exp at double rate, while the end screen not properly showing it.

When the rounds ends it says you earned XXX ammount of exp that's just already doubled even if there is not a warning.
This basic Exp can be even doubled with 1st victory of the day and even boosted ahead with premium.

On my first match after the patch today i had a 8900 exp match (2x normal exp + 2x exp due 1st victory) and someone else reported around 9k exp on that very same match. I also got a 7800 exp with a Jagermech later due also 1st victory of day.

Just keep in mind that win by cap nets around 250-300 exp (if you cap rush) with double exp it's around 500-1k exp. so the best advice it's try to kill the enemy for bigger bonus.

I only got 2k for a winning match (defeated enemy team) this morning in my first win of the day for that mech. The 2xp is still showing for that mech even though I won in it. I suspect something isn't quite working properly.

Well i don't know the exact time the 2Xp for 1st win resets (but it's somewhere between 1-3 hours top before the time of this post) so i think there is big chance you earned a cuadruple exp (2x weekend +2x 1st victory) and then the 1st d2x of day reset in the middle.

Now if you tell me you keep winning match after match with that mech and still get cuadruple exp.. well Kudos to you sir report the bug and bask in free exp

P.S: i earned my 2Xp for first victory and it reseted as normal some hours ago that's working as intended since the timer for 1st victory it's server sided .

Dropped in 5 matches with my K2 tonight. No double XP, on anything. At least not that i can notice. Been on my average so far give or take a little. Certainly nothing noticable.

PGI, did anyone actually check this in house to make sure code from like 7 months ago would still work on the current live release?

[Kiritumi]

Nice 5000 xp haul with lady misery <3

[Zordicron]

Just ran a match in my C1, got double XP for win but nothing else, was a 2xp first victory of day.

[Koniving]

I just realized something...

Is this the first weekend in a while without a sale? Or was there always one week a month without one?

I really don't see that as a problem as I get 12 new mechs to shoot at.

Took me a while to figure it out - take a look at the values we are getting.
Its listing the normal 300xp for a win as 600 (100 for loss as 200) THEN doubling it for the first win stealthy bonus is stealthy

[Caboose30]

Why did it have to be the weekend before we get all the new mechs, instead of after?
