Just want to say that I played all weekend and never once saw a PGI player in game.

Don't take this as sounding greedy, this was a super fun event and I'm grateful! But: when are the rewards typically delivered? Is this insta-reward, or will they all be injected when the event ends.

Had the honor of taking down Mr. Paul this evening right after thinking "there's no WAY I'm going to even find a dev at 1AM on a Sunday"


Log out, then back into the game, and that should have a prompt talking about item being redeemed to your account. Then it should be mixed in with your other cockpit customization items, only cooler by nature.

Well they are dropping at early hours for Europe. Russ should give hem 3 hours playtime in he late afternoon.

It's a bit of fun.


Next time some Group-drops.


The real players almost only do group drops.

Yes, especially as I noticed bad tactics (groups) are worse than no tactics (PUG).

False. I'm real, I'm a player and I do solo drops.

Define "real"?

I do quite well, (see my sig) and I drop almost exclusively Solo. If I group at all, it's no more than 3 or 4 others. Usually groups of 3.

Good golly gosh those 'real' players might have to step down from their beloved group queues and enter the disgusting cesspool that is the PUG queue. /sarcasm.

Seriously, it's all about personal preference, and that's all that matters. I am a firm believer that neither queue is 'better' than the other, they exist to serve different kind of players. Having recently grouped up and dropped in lances and teams many times now, I can say with confidence that I've had much more fun in the PUG queue than in the group queue.

You weren't promised anything... There was no garuntee. Thousands of people play the game, the odds of getting in a drop with a dev AND him being on the other team is very small.

This wasn't some large elaborate event, it was supposed to be small and fun. I never got the chance to drop against any PGI employees, but I did group with them a few times over the weekend. The drops were entertaining to say the least.

Best bait is dev bait.

Was a mix. Add them as friends in the game and you can see when they are online, and if they are grouped or solo.
