I am also grateful for the extension. I usually work more on weekends, plus those of us who are students have loads of finals, term papers, and end-of-year projects. Weeknds are one of my busiest times.Not that I was gonna let crummy schoolwork get in the way of a new Banshee...

Few sec ago saw: 1 grp in attack queue and 50 - in defence. Thats called "balance" ! Great - where its needed (like mech-weapon stats) PGI ignore canons but here they did follow it - at last canon fans should be happy - IS overhelm clans by numbers of /bad/ pilots

P.S. Extention is a great thing but still - as some1 above calculated we need 25h of playtime while overall time going to be over 50h... or, if nothing will be chan ged, over 100h...

P.P.S. PGI stop this! Right now! We will understand it - stop it right now and start it few weeks after, when you will be technicaly ready for such amount of players!... Its not bad to say "no, we cant do this" if you can add "we cant do this now but we will be able to doo it some time after - just to get prepared!".


UPD.
40 min in queue - im still 40 as PUG. Maybe for groups its better?...

Thanks for the extended time.... but... I'm finding myself getting closer up the queue line.... then suddenly back in 50 or 49. Repeatly...
Then one moment (or two) I was actually in a group with a full team.... then got pushed back to the queue line.

Yeah... this isn't working.

[SilentFenris]

With the balance a little one-sided right now, 1 Clan group waiting VS 48 IS groups waiting, any chance PGI could code in a quick contract release rather then the 72 hour wait period to get more players clan side?

[Sixzero]

watching the cue jump back and forth without actiualy giving a match is starting to really show how poorly this was put together,
20 minutes in waiting and I am at the back of the line again and again

[SolutionCat]

Lobby has been destroyed, auto win for the clanners...

Same problem. It's been over 15 min, I'll give it till 25 then I'm done with this experiment.

impossible to get into an game currently... queue restarting after 30minutes i think it is enough of waiting...

[SgtMac]

2 hour wait, and still no CW match. The concept here was great, but the execution is seriously flawed. I understand there might be bugs but this is stupid.

[Nacon]

An hour later after the opening of the event.... I'm calling it offically that Battle of Tukayyid has been cancelled.

Please roll back the patch and hold this event off for another week or so, find out what's wrong with it.

[sdfjkln]

Waited 30 minutes in queue, get a game, then while loading map it crashes sends me to lobby, can't rejoin as it just sends me back to lobby

gonna be a nasty grind for the personal challenge

[PanzerTC]

PGI - love the game hate this Lobby destroyed BLEEP and going from 11 to 25 and from 34 to 50 stuff that's going on. Not enough clanners to kill. Suggest a pre-registration/opt-in that more fairly divides things up. With the 72 time its impossible to switch.

[Alexander Garden]

Hey everyone,

Engineers are working on resolving the queuing/Lobby Destroyed issues that are occurring. We'll keep everyone updated as soon as info becomes available

At this time there have been no auto-wins or uncontested matches for either side.

THIS!!!

2 hours waiting time!

Man u're a hero )) But seriosly - stop this event coz players cant play! Or unlock other planets at last - we cant play with 1/50 C/IS balance...

[Slimspadey101]

Yikes.. Our unit could switch to a clan faction. Most, if not all of us can fill a drop deck with our own clan mechs.. Allowing a switch at this point seems like the only solution.

PGI had to see this coming to some extent. Planet queues have always been weighted more heavily towards IS.

In the meantime grouping is definitely required to get a match any any reasonable amount of time as IS.

Holy dear sweet mother of God.... 46 teams cued for defense! Are you F*ing INSANE?!?

This event is completely, and utterly broken XD I don't think they thought this one through quite all the way. The number of IS vs Clan bias that broke the system before, has utterly destroyed this event!

They need to throw away the cooldown entirely, or just let people pick 'clan' for a match to make this one work.. jeebus...

I'm not even angry about it, it's just so broken it's hilarious XD

EDIT: Oh, Alexander Garden posted they're trying to figure it out... Whew, thought we were locked in for the weekend already. So, hopefully this will get sorted out! At least our sale is still in place n.n Got me some MC, gonna finally buy that Misery, I think...

[Sixzero]

well, this is broken.

what a waste of my time, I am starting to feel buyers remorse for paying into this game.

[PanzerTC]

...and I'm done with this one. Too many destroyed lobby/dropping in placement from 11 to 27 +. Not worth the wait.

Thanks for the update... don't feel bad about cancelling the event though if the fix is going to take more than a day. I just find it odd that there's no testing before the actual public release of this event.

Agreed. A lot of people will *****, but they will no matter what. I certainly won't hold it against you, though. I mean, in retrospect it was really obvious this was going to happen, but the thought never occurred to me beforehand. Perfectly reasonable 'oopsie'


Though... if you want to start handing out Clan Mechs to anyone who wants to switch sides.... Sign me up!
