96 matches for the 30 points

take into account I was leveling up my new 2 Locusts and 2 battlemaster

frankly I just played it cool and to have fun. Pushing yourself for the points tends to get you loose focus, build up angst and play pretty badly.

I mean with my sparky in one match I did 5 kills ... I didn't even try for the 4 following ones as I tend to let others get their kills when I see the match is in our favor, but freaking hell they kept going after me / could have gotten 6 but just chose to jump around him while me team finished him off.

some matches are plain weird....

Can we get more time to complete this challenge plz?

[ExoForce]

32 games, 12 points. Most LOL - 11 assists, 950 dmg, no kill, win - no point.
Anyway, I am up 7.000.000 C-Bills, so... started to play fo fun and not the points.

There should be 15 points mechbay reward - everybody happy.

Please no. Let's just go back to playing normally.

Or maybe they could award the Mech to those who got 25 points.

I got 6 points in 25 matches. I have been Derped on quite enough for one week, thanks.

No, just give us the payouts we got in the old days before the cbill nerf, and we can BUY our own stuff!
I LOVE the challenges where you get stuff you'd never buy, like dashboards, colors, camos etc

Ugh... im finnaly done with this horrible grind, got my free CTF-3D... it "only" toke me 118 matches...

I finally finished the challenge after playing most of yesterday and only a little today. Sticking my stats into excel (they paste nicely if you take care to only select the text) I did it in 95 games with a pretty poor 101 kills, 65 deaths and 407 assists, 45 wins and 50 losses. Compared to the victor challenge I needed another 29 games to get to the right number in this challenge (95 vs 66). It certainly felt more time intensive. The victor challenge I had 35 wins in 66 games.

I ended with a good match at least, 6 kills, 6 assists and nearly 1200 damage.

Why this was so much harder I don't know but herding cats springs to mind. The quality of the team work was much worse this challenge compared to the victor challenge. People would spread out looking for an easy kill and get picked off one byh one. Obviously my negative W/L ratio worked against me especially given the positive before. If I hadn't had so much free time on my hands as I did on the Saturday I would not have had a chance to finish this.

I don't think the kill requirement is a good one. I'd much rather see some overall measure of your usefulness like say getting a match score of 60 or some other arbitrary number where you can still play like you would normally and still earn your free mech.

makes the OCD in me mad, but I'm not getting this challenge either. I dont have enough free time to grind 150+ matches to get 30 qualifiers in the weekend allowed for the challenge.

pity.

[dr lao]

OMG I finally got the 30

Most with my TDR- 9s triple PPC'S !!!

[Juantamad]

[ApolloKaras]

Yeah I just don't do these anymore. If I get it great, if I dont. oh well lol. Steal a kill, get an assist - gg.

How about doing something that makes sense.

[WaughGoff]

Where's everyone getting these stats from?

[Mochyn Pupur]

As with any of these score type challenges, the worst is brought out in many players - I've been rear cored and killed by own team 9 times as they took me out to get a kill, seen folk hiding then sneak out for last blow kills and generally witnessed very little that would make me want to take out and pay for premium time - - - need to sort some other form of challenge to promote team work, not rip it apart.

[Nutlink]

Can't wait to be done with this so I can take a few weeks off from this game. Screw the next challenge, I think I'm done with this game on weekends. If I wasn't so close to it right now I'd just up and quit where I stand. Seeing how many people are using Ryokens and Mad Cats more than usual makes it even more infuriating. If they're not in those they're most likely in an assault. It's getting real old, real fast.

Finished the Challenge with 63 games. Had 32 games where my team lost. 18 matches where I did not score a kill. 5 matches where I did not score an assist. There were 3 runs of big losses, two groups of 5 and one 6. All of my matches were in the solo queue except for 6 CW drops. Made around 12 million in c-bills during those 63 games.

Got most of my qualifying matches in the Yen-Lo-Wang and Founder's Atlas. The IS AC 20 does help secure kills. If you are having problems qualifying in assaults switch to a different weight class. Sometimes the MM is just going to force losses on you to get your W/L to 1.0. When that happens, take a break and get your head right.

[Stormtempter]

The best is when you're in a light and you and your two light buddies are circle strafe killing an assault, and because they are so desperate for a kill, some jacktard teammate intentionally puts an arty/air strike right on you.

[LameoveR]

It took a little of friday and a half of saturday.
Almost no games at sunday.

[Dimitry Matveyev]

Man, reading all this I'm glad I've passed this time. This suppose to be fun, not a weekend long grind-o-thon.
