Oh look! Another luck based event that has "Bring your assaults, its every mech for itself!" written all over it with a very short time to complete on wich only no-lifers will be able to finish it... Bravo...

Think this challenge is good, promotes the style of play I like, aggressive teams usually get the win and a kill isnt too hard to pick up along the way if your winning.

Agressive? More like dickish with a tab of moronic. I've seen entire teems chase after one light to try to kill them and completely ignore the rest of their team because the light was cored. I've had my torso and arms blown off already from behind by teammates who wanted that kill that was in front of me and they didn't care I was already there fighting the guy. There is more fighting your teammates right now than fighting the other team.

Assaults? Hmmmph... After six hours of pretty much non-stop fighting... I have exactly TWO points, from the first game and the last I played... and those points were scored on a Centurion and a trial Stormcrow. I did score a few kills on various assault and heavy chassis, but my teams lost ALL of those games. I also played numerous games where I got plenty of assists, but not a single kill...

Since it is now past 02:10 my local time, I am going to get some sleep and hunt for the 3rd point after I am a bit better rested... :/

I'm with you G SE7EN7. I's a CHALLENGE! It should be challenging to get the prize!! I'm not logged into the game right now, but a CTF-3D(C) is like what, $30 if you were to buy it with MC? Should everyone be given $30 to play a free-to-play game for the weekend? If you're really good, or if you're moderately skilled and devote a lot of time to it, you can probably achieve the prize. If not, be happy that you can get the premium time. It would be nice to have some lesser prizes (like camo patterns or cockpit items), for those of us unable to achieve the grand prize, but I'm not going to grouse about it. It's PGI's game and their challenge, so they set the rules. Anyways, rant over. Feel free to flame away.

Well at least you have 2 already, i still have none and ive been trying for 2 hours and suffering from the same situations... Its just frustrating rather than "fun". At this pace i guess i can kiss that Catra goodbye, its (not) been fun...

I'm glad you guys released this so soon after CW truly.

First you show us pugs how much you hate us with CW.

Then you use this to show us just how bad matchmaking is in the solo queue.

Seriously thank you so much now everyone can see how long it takes them to get 30 wins in the solo queue.

Should be interesting to see the stats across the board. (disclaimer whiteknights on the forums don't count, Neither do group queue or sync abusers- solo queue only)

But thank you PGI I'm glad the larger % of your player base aren't pugs or you'd be in trouble with a lot of your moves working against pugs lately.

Oh wait most of your player base are pugs!

The top players. Like the Lords and EmP, won't have any trouble getting that challenge done. So if you're whining about it then you're probs not as good as you think you are.

I do not understand why some players hate these challenges. I mean I get why but the only way you are going to get better and even stand a chance is if you practice. I was no good when I started but kept it up and think I am decent now but in no way at all am I a top player. Will I try this challenge. ..you betcha. Will I win through...maybe...maybe not. But I will have fun trying. So jump in your mech and give it a go. As a fellow TT ER told me...Keep practicing and you're gonna get better.

[jackal404]

Can we please remove the requirement for a win? I keep getting stuck with the stupidest PUGs on the face of the earth and am getting totally fed up with meeting all the other requirements, but I loose out because my team mates thought it would be more fun to do stupid things.

Yeah, I know it's a team based game - but come on? Can't I get on the winning team just three times, let alone the 30 required to earn this mech?

I swear, I'm so pissed at them I want to start shooting them in the back.

Edit: On second thought, I'm just gonna take a break this weekend. I'll be wasting 3 days of premium time, but this aggravation isn't worth it.

One target off the field - ya'll have fun with the stupid team mates, getting shot in the back, and all of the other "fun" these events bring.

I approve this... taking out the "survival" requirement was a very smart move. Thanks PGI!

[Jeffrey Wilder]

4 hours into the game and I am still at ZERO wins.

[G SE7EN7]

your elo must be dropping so you should get some good players on your team soon

I certainly hope so but I guess 3 wins is all I am asking for. Right now, it's still ZERO.

[Molossian Dog]

This is a grind.

On top of the general grind for C-Bills.

Like any other challange so far.

I think I´ll pass.

@ Cyborg dragon

I have my reasons

Your point?

I was going to type a long response , But today I'm just not feeling feeding your forum warrior appetite as amusing as it is . Especially when you and the same people think I care about your opinion. I want the game right for the majority not the vocal minority.

Nuff said but please carry on trying to tear every post that isn't in agreement with yours to pieces. See how it works out for you.

Did he say he disagreed with you? He asked you a fair question a number of us tired of your ceaseless whining and bad grammar have asked you. A question you duck and dodge constantly.
