These are great for making points....but they also generally take the full 30 minutes to play.

Hmm...maybe I should setup another 4 mechs. Then if I die early, I can start another match with the different mechs. ...I assume this is doable, never tried it before.

If you don't need to be "optimal" it's trivial to have 4 mechs inside the weight limits.

If you need another dozen proper weapon modules and another eight or so mech modules for your four mechs... that's freakin' expensive.

cool maybe with this event it wont take 3 days to get a drop in CW.
about the only reason I don't do CW is because how long it takes to drop.

Longest I waited is 1 hour for a drop, go figure.

Sounds like it can't be done anyway.

800 damage without any friendly damage, not including taking any components, kills, assists, spots, etc.

all for a stupid experiment... silly pgi. your CW mode is just way too repetitive right now with those ******* relying on mechs with major quirks. weaklings.

[Motörhead]

This time premium will be given when the even is over?

It didn't redeem as usual for me.

[Averen]

First game?
20 minute waiting time. IS vs Clan. Pug vs 12Premade. Counter Attack. Only HBR, TBR and Crows.
And, to round off, Arti spam. Even a Poptarting TBR-Kill. Also another occurance of fps-breaking smoke clouds.

Frankly, at this point a pug just should'nt be able to attack against a premade, even outside the Clan/IS discussion.

Btw, there is a certain irony tho: This game made me wonder if I should just break the davion contract and just go for clans (got timmber+3 crows+(b)adder). Makes it easier and the waiting times come from having too many IS players and to few clanner. That's some real mercenary allegiance.

Sorry but this event is rubbish, it gives 12 man organized teams a a free mech, everyone else you are wasting your time. Pug drops will get camped at spawn points because PGI has not made these maps properly, and CW is still In a beta so why. All that will happen is players will become even more disillusioned by CW and play it less.

And please do not give me all this about it is designed for team play, because I imagine the majority of players play alone or maybe with 1 or 2 friends not in 12 man groups.

So when europe comes online then we have cease fire in effect for 40 min

Clever idea to lure in some PUG victims for feeding them to the bored premades, isn't it?

I always play a 12 man group, but this event I play as a pug because I need 80 points not a win. Easy event if you have some skill and time.

[Averen]

Yeah, take some strong mechs, play solid and you'll be able to get 80 points even in the worst cases. Stalker 4N is basically a free card.^^

[Strykewolf]

For those already complaining...I haven't teamed up with the folks I normally do; been pugging it. 5 runs, 5 qualified; 3 victories/2 defeats.

Not saying there won't be rough fights but, it's not all doom/gloom.

Also, not saying you shouldn't find a group to roll with; will make it a lot easier on you. Check the CW forums section and whatever house/clan you're with and look for the TS hub info.

Which trial mechs would you recommend that do work good without being elited/mastered and fully module equipped against, say, a deck of 2/2 TBR/SCR laser vomits?

I have six SCRs. Between CW, comp and experimentation, I run out of places to put builds. Number seven will be welcome.

Aww well I only have 5....3 of them are cousins named Splat, Splattier and Splattiest. Hm, what would I call the other 2, and now a 6th?
