Seems 84% solo drops is not enough for PGIIGP.
Lets make more solo tournaments and go 100% solo drops in a TEAM play game. Nice.

The creation of a solo challenge doesn't mean they are ignoring the group queue. The whole Launch module (which is orders of magnitude more effort) is all about the group queue. And when that goes live, they can start running team tournaments, which they've already stated they are going to do!

guys, seriously, this game has so many issues to worry about, so many things to complain about, to make us heard. Would you please stop whining about harmless contest. Each time I want to adress some serous game problems to developers, I feel like I'm one of these guys, who only critique and complain on forums. Pay more respect to your own posts.

Can't find anything about whether you need to solo drop or if 4-mans/12mans count.

also, FRR represent!

[Naranak]

I will be there, representing House Marik in my CDA-X5

Nice idea. Me and my boys in the 1st Fed Suns Armored Cavalry are more than up to the challenge. See you, guys, on the field of honor.

[Phashe]

my guess is this is a way to test the faction functions early. Me thinks that everyone is over thinking it. :-P

go lone wolf !!!

[Jacob Side]

? a contest for Faction play yet they require you to drop solo again???? Makes no sense what so ever.

Looking at this page:

https://mwomercs.com/tournaments

It shows the factions in pairs down toward the bottom of the page. Does this mean they are paired as a team or paired as rivals? In other words if I join Davion am I also fighting for Kurita or against them?

[Zerberus]

^^ Neither, it just means taht section of the scoreboard is reserved for those 2 teams.

You have more c-bills by damaging instead of doing the killing shot. In the winning team I earn more than$110 000 for do more than 600 damage and 0 or 1 kill. For 4 kills and 200 damges 90 000 c-bills.

I will opt-in for the free cockipt item but i will do only the 10 matchs seeing how the last tournament was.
Can't you just take the match score instead on just focusing on kills ??? I stopped midway in the last tournament because of players behavior (arty/air strike spamming obligatory, stealing kills instead of helping team, etc). Crippling a mech by legging him / destroying his side torso or spotting ennemies for you team is as important as 'getting kills'. It's a team based game not a quake-like.

I see, the web page designers were too lazy to push the space bar a few times so the names would line up over their respective scoreboards. Thanks.

they should have done this 2 years ago, when they were promising community warfare, and while we were waiting for it...

[Dagger6T6]

can't wait to shoot at some Davion playboys and oppress drunken space Vikings.... for honor and glory and for the Dragon

[CyclonerM]

I will fight for House Marik because my character's birthplace is Oriente in the FWL.

Even if we do not have Clan factions and any kind of faction warfare (yet) i give you +1 for this!

This is the 2nd major event since UI 2.0. It's almost as if it was a major engineering roadblock in the game.

I'm talking about the formulae used in the tournament not the cbills.

With all due respect, what is the point of this tournament when all the game is right now is LRM boating?

When you kill, you also have to count the component destroyed reward plus the kill reward. That helps to even it up. In fact, if you take out a side torso and they haven't lost an arm, you get 2 component rewards and the kill reward if they run an XL engine. 1 component for the arm and 1 for the side torso.
