so will there be an announcement when the first 50 have been killed? (assuming they haven't already)

^ yeah, I've been playing for at least 6 hours straight*, I'd like to know when my efforts have become futile.

*hint: I haven't seen a single dev yet. Nor has anybody on my friends list.

It would be better if they dropped without any one knowing, sure as hell if someone sees one everyone is going to rush to get the kill, shooting up their own team in the process, and all those I d 10 t's that think team killing is a tactic will kill them first. Even thou any thinking pilot would know Tk's don't count, but since peeps had to actually ask that question I rest my case.

Not really when you think about it. Maybe 1 or 2 devs playing at most and only for like a hour at best will take forever since their are sooo few of them.

I have to say this this is the worst event PGI has produced in the last few weeks. Very low dev spawn rate. This event is little more than an easter egg hunt without easter eggs...

Hey everyone,

I wanted to mention on behalf of the team that we do still have some MC Reward Dev Kills up for grabs, but I'll be surprised if they last beyond tomorrow. Apologies if you haven't spotted us yet; we've been working all day! Keep in mind though that you'll still receive the snazzy Cockpit item if you manage to take one of us down throughout the rest of the weekend.

And who knows, if you miss the boat on this event, you might have more opportunities sooner than you think...

i think the devs should challenge themselves in makeing more mechs enjoyable instead of asking players to grinde away cbills and xp to finish another day's 24 hours.

I keep sending friend invites to the "devs" so I can go 1 vs 1 and claim a prize. I am guessing your just to busy, or to gutless, to go ONE ON ONE, with the DARING ONE!

(You didn't specify the conditions, or modes ;))

The rarity of seeing PGI in any match makes me wonder why bother?


I have played all night and not seen a single PGI to blast. Lame.

That would be great if we all had a chance to kill you. The way it stands now, I have played since 1700 EST and have not seen a single PGI tag to shoot at. This is not a good challenge.

My guess is purely the solo queue. Which irritates me actually as I've been dropping with a group of 4 or less and ALWAYS seemed to get a match via group when I know 4 or less are in both solo and group. Guess I gotta solo it til I see one.

solo que is just that: solo.
All groups go in group que.
This is not how they originally announced it but, it is how it works.

I found one dev. in solo, Jon, and I challenged him to Batchall. He was a good sport about it, thank you btw, but my whole team basically ignored the entire enemy team trying to hunt him down and someone else got the kill. I highly doubt that I'm going to run into another dev. before this event is over.

Oh well... Hey PGI, I'll be on a dig out in the field (away from civilization) for the next two weekends... Not sure what I'm going to do if you have an amazing Battle'Mech sale. Maybe we can come up with some kind of compromise for people who miss these things due to, well due to life?

I wonder if you Devs. Understand how bad this looks?
Do you think we are so stupid as to think we can kill 50 of you when we never even see you ? Oh and when you tell us about someone who does it , we will all know that person isnt to be trusted , cause we all know it was given to them not earned.


and you wonder why so many people give up on this game.
