Thank you Russ and PGI.
I'm sure some will complain about this (why I have no idea) but you cant make everyone happy. I have invested $thousand+$ easy into this game. I'm satisfied were we are. Happy about where we are going. Weekend give backs like this make what I have spent worth it and reassure me spending more is a good decision.

Well, there you go!

How do you score a point T_T

[Twilight Fenrir]

Sweet event! I'm actually hurt up for cbills since the Hellbringer released So this will work well for me! And, I can start getting modules and weapons in anticipation of Wave 3

[trtw]

Wow nice! Gonna need some modules and this will buy a few for sure. Cool deal imho

[S Phoenix]

Awesome event. I have a few Questions though:

"Achieve a minimum match score of 30, in Skirmish, Conquest, and Assault game modes"

You mean "OR" - right?


"For each Victory receive an additional 100,000 C-Bills"
"For each Loss receive an additional 50,000 C-Bills"

Addional to.... ?
A) Is it additional to 100,000/150,000 for special mechs as above?
B) Or is it just additional to the CBills earned normally in the CW game?
C) Or something else that was missed out in the post?


Comment (not a complaint):
If its B) then it would mean:
80 non-CW matches, (~15 hours max) to get 8,000,000/12,000,000 CBills
20-30 CW matches (~15 hours + queue waiting time) to get 2,000,000 CBills

Ouch! for players interested in CW.... May expect longer waiting times in the CW queue...

It says specifically that champion mechs dont count.

It says specifically champion mechs don't count for the 50% c-bill bonus so they only get 100,000 c-bills like regular variants.
It says that hero, limited, phoenix, invasion, resistance mechs count for 150,000 c-bills aka 50% c-bill bonus.
Total times you can qualify is 20 times for each class.
Weird how people get different info reading the exact same post.

30 points match score, so no min requirement like other events such as needing a win, kill or assist, you just have to get a raw score at the end of the match of 30 or better.

[delushin]

Too complicated for me to work out what to, but I love it as I am broke as at the moment and I am sure someone in TS will tell me what I have to do ... haha

Now I think have a Hero in each weight class, so all I have to do is run that hero till I reach cap in pugs then use the same hero to reach cap in CW, then change the weight class and repeat right?

[Punk Oblivion]

Event looks fun! BUT, if it's a st patties event, why does it end the morning OF st patties? Not a huge deal, but personally, st patties was going to be an all day gaming day for me... Otherwise I have to work all weekend

"You get up to a maximum of 20 qualifying matches per weight class."
I can't understand how the weight class counted like Light, Medium or Heavy like that??!
OR like according to tons...like 50 ton mechs (all) 80 ton mechs (all)?!


It happens so sad for you....
It happens..

4 weight classes, Light, Medium, Heavy, Assault, so for solo and group pug drops you can qualify up to 80 times

Lol, if $5 is flowing (at lowest MC package), I'd hate to see a trickle.

Never look a wallet flow in the mouth.

[Tezcatli]

Anything to take the edge off grinding.

[Telmasa]

This. This is the kind of event that makes me fall in love with the new PGI all over again. Can't wait til I've got free time tomorrow!

[kka]

Does premium time and the additional c-bills stack? For example, when you get the additional 100,000 cb for a match, does it come out as 150,000 with the premium time?

I guess not, but just asking to clarify.

[Juodas Varnas]

PGI is this a test-challenge to test the viability of using the Match score as a qualification for the rewards? Because if it is, i can't wait for upcoming challenges with more interesting rewards that would use this system, because it's great and i love you.

I still want my SCP.

[Flaming oblivion]

You can keep it frankly, Been playing a lot less lately,

Isnt worth it.


You have a quarter of a million registered game accounts, Yet only around 300 people playing actively, And you still don't see a problem still wont fix stuff.

[anonymous161]

Dont see the point in this. One hand yes earning more to lower the grind a tiny bit is kinda nice...but you are playing the EXACT same ******* game you have for 3 years now when will people wake up? This isn't an evolution of the game, this is just another way to sneak some cash out of idiots. The fan base is really annoying in this.

I agree Flaming Oblivion this is just dumb. They will never give an official active numbers that play a day would probably get people to walk away a lot sooner, I often see the same people every other match almost it seems, kinda tells you something.

by playing the damn game do people not read anymore? Score a decent score thats all you dont have to even kill just get enough damage to earn above 30 points I believe.
