Anyone else get worse items the more you get?

At the start i was getting prem time,MC and and even cockpit items. After about 10 games for the last 40 games i have only gotten gxp and cbills.


Im not complaining just wondering :)

Got 1 day of premium and 1 cockpit item in almost 100 matches.

MC has trickled in so that by the end I will have about 750-1000

About 5 million C-bills so far.

No mech bay.

A few "naughties"


Overall, it's OK, but I'd rally liek to see them throw in some truly rare prizes...... like a mech, or a month of premium.

Nope. Got a few lumps of coal mixed in here and there, but have been popping 100k cbills, MC and Premium time with just as much consistency.

Might work..... but probably would limit it to the Invasion Mode or something that makes it a little more effort.

Or possibly have the ability to trade in multiple Stockings" for a "present" that is of higher value?

At least you are receiving your gifts. I've played a dozen games that I received nothing for. It's been eight hours since my last series of matches and I've still received nothing.

@ Shock wave. You need to manually redeem, its not automatic.

Just make it random, like everything else but with a much lower chance of being drawn.

I got very little useless fluff like single heatsinks, flames etc. I think overall it was fun and very equitable. Helped me in getting my second dire with premium time. Bought a Crab because of that.

Greetings all,

Just so those that are not seeing anything 'appear' after match's.

- You need to go to the web page thread, here: http://mwomercs.com/tournaments

- Scroll to the bottom and see the 4 tabs listing the different game play modes.
(Your Games/Tickets/Prizes:)
- Select any modes you have played, there will be a 'button' labelled 'reach into stocking'.
- upon selecting it you receive your 'gift'.
You need to have had a minimum of 30 match score for normal games and 80 match score for any CW games.
(stocking are delayed about 15mins after match completion.)

Each game played is listed under the tabs, and labelled if it qualifies for a stocking.
- The tabs will now display how many prizes you have been given for each mode, 25 available for each tab.
(you can also see the Global Prize Totals change as the different items are given away.)

Good luck, and have fun.
9erRed

And to add it runs till the second. You will win premium time. My buddy is on the road this week and only home today. I warned him not to click on anything till he gets back or he will have wasted any premium time.

I don't know but whoever gets premium time and mechbays is lucky. I haven't gotten either.

I would say is if you get a bad prize, stop clicking to redeem for a bit.

There's something to the RNG that more of the same stuff is claimed after redeeming within a short period of time.

My first prize Friday was a "Lump Of Coal" cockpit item. 8th or so I got a day of premium, and pretty random amounts of c-bills and honest-to-goodness MC in my account. Pretty random for me so far.

out of the 33 or so rounds, I've pretty much gotten only low amounts of cbills or GXP.

I did get 1 day of time, which doesn't really matter to me.

I wish I could get like a nice lucky load of MC. Would love to get a fang.

Ive claimed all 75 of my normal drop modes prizes, I did manage out of 75 prizes 4 days premium time and one mech bay, 3 mc prizes, the rest were cockpit items IUAV's and Flamers. So I guess I was naught too much this year LOL, I still have the 25 to get from cw.

Ill give grand totals, once CW if completely claimed out.

:( GXP, GXP, and more GXP.....

4 in a row.... I don't need GXP :(

also, conquest is junk....total junk.. I can't believe how bad the teams I end up on are. my team splits, the other stays together and we get rolled....every round. can't wait to get 25 and be done with it. Assault and Skirmish are not like this.
