Not really, considering you have to be extreely lucky to find a dev in this game. And even then, there's a 50% chance he'll be on your side.

If get one on my team, I'm going to leg him. Just to help out the other guys actually get to kill one.

Leg my ass. I'll take a leg and both torsos....then leave him flailing. It's not a teamkill, so I'm good.

I've been doing drops all day. The devs are MIA.

You have to drop in the group queue to see them. They're too afraid to hit the solo queue, man.

Besides, noone wants to play on a team with a bunch of new players...not even the Devs.

[Mike Forst]

Alright, it's time for me to play again. Happy hunting!

[Kyle Wright]

This challenge sucks for higher ELO players, as most of the Devs are not that good or rarely play to begin with. Only people with a PGI tag worth playing with skill are Sean Lang and Bombadil. Worthless challenge other then for the lower tiers.

It's ok, we don't really get to see them in low ELO brackets either. I've had 25 games so far and nothing. And then jsut as I type this Mike Frost is on my team.

FORK!

Can the original post be editted to include a comprehensive list of who the devs are? All I know are Niko & Paul.

Look for the PGI icon in the start screen

If they drop in the solo queue, it doesn't matter. Plenty of new players (even those in the cadet matches) find themselves in the deep end.

I'm starting to think this shouldn't have been a challenge - it should be an achievement and available at all times.

[Mudhutwarrior]

TK a dev weekend sounds nice...... I like that better.

[Mike Forst]

Well, back to work with me. Someone did finally manage to earn a medal off me though

As cool as that sounds, you have to keep in mind:

A ) The developers don't know crap about battletech nor do they understand the nerfhammer everything has been hit with.

B ) The developers don't know how to play their game, nor do they realize how much things have changed since the last time they tried...Paul's nerfhammer hit them as bad as it did us.


Personally, I don't care. Teamkill or Goodkill, I'm gonna get me a developer one way or the other.

There are some of us who know how to customize and optimize a mech and use it effectively

[eFTy]

How is that in any way relevant to the fact that devs show up in the game extremely rarely?

If I were a dev, I'd have a special 9000 armor point Kit Fox with 4 ER PPCs and 160 DHS... but I'm a bad man.

[Moment Killer]

Any way we can get a list or notification of the first 50 status?

[Unleashed3k]

Thx PGI for another fair event, we've been playing with 17 people for 6hrs now, all gamemodes, not a single dev sighted, now its freakin' 2:15AM here in Germany!!! Seems we in europe dont get any chance to earn such a medal.... dunno what kind of elo pgi-devs have, but seems it must been below everyones on my Unit.... Sorry but not really a great weekend event.... ggclose PGI, Europe looses again.....

Well, I hope you guys (dev) get a ton of play time in this weekend. Gonna make a counter offer for ya'll. If I do see a dev I am going to buy some MC for the first time ever. And if i kill one (and gonna be honest here, blue or red doesn't matter a ton to me), I am going to buy a Hero. And if I kill more then 3, gonna buy a wave 2 clan package. You guys doing stuff like really motivate me to spend a bit.

EDIT: Welp, found one of ya'll, sadly you rolfstomped my team. So got me some MC and some fancy paint. Now let me kill you=)

I've found a highly effective tool to locate the highly elusive devs....
