I'm finding it's more of a ''Artillery and Air Strikes vs the World'' Tournament. (Last match my team copped 8 Strikes within the first 4 and half minutes, and as a result, were all dead by the 5th minute.) I guess 600+ points of damage from spending up on consumables inflates one's ranking considerably.

I didn't see much of that though, maybe those guys i played with were arty shy...

THis Tournaments could be so much fun if there was a solo queue but it realy isnt funny to get stomped by 4 man jumpsniper assault premades in every second game. And BTW why do new players start with a medium elo score? cause it realy sucks to have 3-4 trial stalker in your team that do about 30dmg alltogether.... but thats an other story....

[Master Maniac]

I can't say I didn't have fun during this event, that's for sure. Wouldn't mind a more substantial prize pool for all the stress, though. :-p I've been thinking about nothing but MWO for like two days straight, so if that was your goal, devs, then I assure you that you have accomplished your mission. :-)

Jenner doesnt go 170. Not even close. And iirc the engine buff came slightly before PP hit

The engine buff came when the Phoenix Pack was released (though it didn't help the Locust, since the Commando+Spider reaped most of the benefits).

I would like to see my top 10 matches during the tournament. Seems like if those scores are being recorded that it wouldnt hurt if I was able to see them as well.

A playback feature would indeed be nice.

Well Id like to put my input as well to all of this! I want to thank the team for this useless event! the prices are worth 1-7 bucks woot!
i cannot count how many airstrikes have been fired off over the last 40 games ive played. everyone is grabbing the kill shots and team work is out the window.
thanks! thanks so much turning a team cooperative game into COD. Cant wait for the weekend to be over and have "normality" return.

And the Leaderboard is empty AGAIN!

I keep mine in a spreadsheet. It's pretty easy to setup since they give us the formula. I just setup one column that totals the score, then copy and paste it 10 times, then I add a SUM of those 10 scores for the total. That way, I can keep track of whatever stats I want.

But yeah, it would be nice if it showed up in our profile.

BTW: What's up with the leader boards right now? They all just say "No data available at this time."

[Mofwangana Bogogono]

So... the server stopped updating... "data not available at this time"

Does that mean matches right now don't count?

That's what I'm wondering.

[Axefan]

Yay! It's back.

[Deathlike]

I'm gonna hazard a guess that it may or may not have something to do with when the server issues double XP (it's like 7PM EST when that happens)... but that's just a guess on my part. They are not directly related, but it has more to do with the server "clock".

Wow some people, it does not suit my schedule........its unfair......I do like it.......Its a opt in people, if you dont like it dont join. What do you wanted them to poll the entire community find the best possible time, work that around a world clock and then ask you have you upadted your schedule since last time they checked.
Really are some people that self centred they create their own gravity that other must abide by.
As to the prizes stop bitching.....................what do you want a mortage down payment, some money to get new plugs. Its just a whimsy a muck around to spice things up, its not who wants to be a millionaire.
Whilst I will not even come close to getting in the top anything its been a good laugh, have there been people screwwing around trying to try to stat pad probably but no more than in any other community.
So many people need to stop bitching.............WE NEED A HUG A MECH DAY TO BRING BACK THE LOVE

[Eglar]

Well I have one complaint though: PGI should have removed ELO restrictions for the duration of the tournaments.

It's hard to perform well if you need to try to drop 3 times in a row before you get a match.

This is an excellent excuse to finish-up my Grid Iron... I don't know how I did it, but I accidentally got into the top 100 by screwing around with AC/2s.

Dual-AC/2?

So far today I'm averaging 500 damage and around 5-6 combined kills/assists per match... with Dual AC/2 and dual ML. No consumable strikes.

When we win, I get 10-12 combined kills/assists... when we lose, I get a kill or assist for every dead enemy Mech. Like I said, I don't know how, but I am mopping up today with the AC/2x2.
