All 3 modes will be skirmish. Who cares about the base? Games will be faster - less time then previous weekend.
Good. With premium time + adder sold, will be like +20.000.000 C-bills.

I have Adders already. They make the best electro sounds (running+wub wub). My Adder Battle March:
Spoiler



yes the entire way adder moves and sounds is really nice, my second most favoured mech after the Nova.

No W required :(
I would prefer the win still be required with either a kill or an assist and 25 points to get the main prize instead of 50. But I guess the people have spoken and for a change (maybe even a trend by now) PGI has listened. Wins is the only stat I personally really care about.

Another great way to stress test the servers. 80 games?

Log into pug game. Shoot the enemy to get that assist. Suicide rush if necessary to get that kill. Log off of pug game.

Repeat.

CW will be different as everyone will fight to win.

I however salute PGI as free goodies are FREE :) It gets more people to to play. And dropping that win requirement will help

It'd be nice if just getting a kill or assist was enough for the points seeing how many you actually need to earn any worthwhile rewards.

Um, the game is checking WINS for the event, when it should not.

I'd like to think this code was TESTED before the event.

How hard could it be?

Sneak in, disable the tractor beam, rescue the princess, dive into a garbage shute, and escape.

Wait, what?

Here's somthin for the 4 20 unit guys...

No PGI just no. Im not going to spend 60+ games for some POS Adder mech. These challenges bring out the worst in players turning the matches into toxic environments. As others have stated multiple times it will be cheesed or abused to be as efficient as possible making it miserable for others. So to another challenge, no thanks.

This is a Challenge. . . not a Mech giveaway. Stop complaining about PGI giving the community an incentive to play more. If the challenge was easy or quick what would be the point? They are giving us several tiers this weekend and they have removed the win requirement of the challenge. Please stop trolling. . .

Side note: As frustrating as it is to have "your" kill stolen. This forces the solo drops to play more aggressive. I think this is a good thing. I find it more frustrating to have half my team avoiding the engagement than "stealing" my kill.


Ummm, no it is not a "Challenge" it is an "Event". The Win requirement makes it a "Challenge" but no one seems to want to be "challenged" they want FREE stuff for just logging in. :(

I was excited when I saw that it was Kills and Assists for points. Some how I thought that would mean that every kill and assist would equal 1 point. So I pumped out a few matches where I get 3 kills and 5 assists thinking that I would get 3 points for it. Turns out that the event is capped at 1 point per match no matter how many kills and assists you get.

Looks like it is time to get a kill and assist and then disconnect from the match since I cannot get more than 1 point per match. I wish they didn't make it like that.

I get a kill and an assist and keep on playing.

See.. the difference between you and me is that I do not value a contest the same way you do, but now, if my team loses it's less frustrating if I do kills and assists than it was on previous challenges. So I keep on playing and having fun.

To each his own, i guess.

Yep, I just blow myself up and DC when I get my kill and assist.
