whats a mech worth anyway, 10-15m cbills?

If I spend the time required for this event (some 40 odd hours with the queues and stuff) in regular matches that would be about 300 matches. 300 matches at about 150k cbills average is 45m cbills. I mean, I could just do regular matches for one day and buy the mech normally (not fussed about exp bonus) so um yeah.

As far as the whole place in queue thing goes... there's the generic screen that tells you jack, and there's this screen, which specifies where you are in the queue.

You should not have... It's not a good solution to listen to guy asking for something requiring more than 24H of playtime... Theses guys usually spend there lives in a game and shouldn't be really encouraged to keep doing so...


OMG... ^^THIS too!

******* this.Seriously, it's not even worth taking advantage of the sales. I've cleaning at working between matches though, so there's that.

Maybe for the next cw event like this we can get a point for every 80 match points(160 match score = 2 event points). Would make people want to do better to lessen the grind.

I would love to do this event. But I wait in the queue (solo) and everytime I get within 12 people I get kicked back to 30. I have been waiting for 30mins jut for 1 match.

I have tried the LRG system but nothing is coming up.

This is coting me Premium Time I have been saving since the last event!

My gamertag name "SAHIL 619" I am unable to enter a Tukayyid match it always throws me out every time I get in to a match.

It loads the map and then another page loads written "TUKAYYID-Mechlab (nextline) mode/ @_mechlab_defend (nextline) @ui_mechlab_defend_rule" ??!!

Then I come back to the mechlab saying "Disconnected from game server".



I tried the MWO repair tool but it starts downloading uselessly 48 MB and then 370 MB (cobra?!).....and then I cancelled that..

What to do please help I don't want to miss this event..I want the points, give me the answer to fix. :(

Have you played since the last patch? They changed some of the programming... the repair tool HAS to download the ENTIRE game again, all 7 gigs of it... so, kick on the repair tool, and go to sleep. Come back tomorrow morning, and you should be good.

I think PGI needs to adjust the numbers for IS players. I got 6 matches in 5 hours, while a clanner will get >10 matches in the same period. The normal IS pug is even worse off because of the long queue and 10min timer.

In other words: if you're in the clan you'll hit 50 points in ~25 hours; if you run IS it will take over 40 hours.

Ya now I tried to play the solo simple game skirmish it worked..but this tukkayid is not working and yes I hav't played since last patch..

Yep, just gotta run the repair tool and let it do it's course... it will re-download the entire game. We all had to do it... Just unfortunate timing for you to realize it... The game will run, and some aspects will work without it, but it's random.

The 50 Point tier should really be seen as an extended, edge-case reward. The ultimate goal for most players will be the 40 point tier for the Banshee/Warhawk selection.


CW is not fun enough to dump that kind of time into it.

these waits are atrocious, staying in queue for up to ten minutes to get to 5th in queue only to be bumped back to the end of the queue is just beyond ridiculous.

Thought I'd try it, but this just sucks.

30 minute wait to drop means I've been in two matches in two hours. Both were against 12 man drops, who dropship camped.

While I'd love to participate in THE defining battle in BattleTech lore, I'm pretty sure it's not worth it.
