Been playing 4 hours yesterday and about 6 hours today and I am at 11 event points.

There is no way anyone can reach 50 points legit without a stash of Red Bull :P

They... Did extend it. Until the 30th day.

At first it was supposed to end on the 27th.

PGI lower the requirements for the events... 50 points is so high especially for CW

Here's the thing.
Not everyone's supposed to reach that 50.
It's supposed to be a challenge.

they said they wanted people to hit 40. 45 and 50 were the extra's.

Im not doing this event tho, due to RL but 40 matches with al the que and game time (specialy for solo) seems very high

What they need to do now is give two points for an IS qualifying match and one for a clan. You'll still get it done faster as clan but it will make it a little more even.

I was pretty burnt out after the last CW event getting 20 points for the mech.

I cannot begin to imagine the degree of mental wear and tear those who get the 50 points will suffer after this event especially on the IS side. Once I saw the points requirements for many of the prizes I simply wrote them off.

actualy. i think they need to give more points based on performance regardless of faction.

score of 80 = 1 point
score of 160 = 2 points
score of 220 = 3 points

something like that or higher for 2 points like a score of 200 or something.

its not hard to get a score of 80 but it promotes good play if you can get more points per match.

30/50 points.

This event needs to be extended for IS, because there queue times are seriously unfair.

The wait time sure as heck isn't worth it for me. I have been trying to get into games and the IS queue is always full, kicking me to the end, or populating me, then kicking me to the end again. You look at the attack and defend queue, you see the same teams playing again and again. They need to make COMMUNITY warfare for the community and not a select few. back to normal group matches and solo drops

the only real challange to this event is getting into a ******* match to begin with. half an hour wait times between matches? that's just insulting.

There's a difference between a challenge and a waste of and or unhealthy usage of time.

Currently the challange is:

"Who copes with waiting queue boredom best?"

I am not sure the masses really looked forward to that kind of challange. On the other hand:
"Next year we forego that stupid World Cup and instead broadcast a 20 hour staring contest! w00t!"

Not all challenges are meant to be conquered xD

But i do agree with all of you, it is really bad for IS pilots. I've only been able to get 12 points, just because of those 30-40 minute waiting times between battles.
