It took 32 matches for me to score the 5 wins.

I experienced match after match where I dropped with half a team of clueless noobs in trial Mechs who got ROFLstomped by premades and then left me and four others to face an entire enemy team which was barely undamaged. Mostly we'd lost 12-3 or worse, though once I scored 5 kills and four assists... which resulted in a draw.

Rather than a Centurion, can my reward please be to drop with and against players of similar skill level?

Good challenge, anyway.


MatchMaker Overlord is currently evaluating your performance in recent matches and wishes you to play a few (hundred) more matches before it can arrange for more appropriate teammates....in the meantime a lovely roster of premade metalanders, fatlas and jag40s will take turns working you over like a fresh prison inmate at rec time.

Centurions are my favorite mech! Thanks!

I had so much better matches before Elo poked its ugly nose in.

Thank you for this give-away!
I would love to see more like this. Free mechbay with a fun toy inside! If you don't like the toy, at least you got a mechbay!

I submitted a bug report

I hope you get it soon :ph34r: - while I am not a fan of the "Zombie" builds (to much a one-trick-pony for my taste) it is an awesome chassis. :unsure:

Thanks, PGI. That was a nice and unexpected gift to the community. While I already had that variant, I surely don't mind another (plus a much needed mechbay). One fellow who plays in our group just started playing a week ago and only had one mech. It was a real windfall for him to acquire a mechbay and a good mech with this challenge.

Happy thoughts to whoever came up with this offer!

Thank you, PGI, for the weekend-long break from endless Highlanders and Jagermechs.

However, I regret to inform you that I am still so utterly butthurt by 3PV that I am incapable of seeing this as anything but another cash grab.

N.O.P.E.

I´d love to participate but I tried over the weekend to log in and when UI2.0 starts up MW closes without an error.

Tried reinstall - same

After I don´t know how many times I gave up and played BF4.

Its sad what MWO has become. :unsure:

I prefer a lousy but working more than a over complicated new not working UI2.0


I heard PGI specifically programmed the game so it wouldn't run on exactly your machine too.

That's why you're here posting right!


Right?

Thanks PGI, the 9A completes my stable of Centurions. More importantly it's a great bonus for new players to get a free mech and mechbay. My nephew started playing a couple of weeks ago and only had a Spider 5d until he got this. Even if he doesn't like the 9A he can sell it for a cbill boost and still has the mechbay. :unsure:

Nice job PGI! I'd love to see more of this. One off challenges for little things, like win 20 rounds this weekend and get a cockpit item/mech bay/something but this was actually really cool because people seemed a lot more focused and over the weekend I saw a lot of "Come on guys, I need one more!" Total win.
