This is great. The free redemptions for Wave 3 owners is a nice reward/incentive, too. Well played, PGI.

I love the idea of this event but just a quick question to other wave three owners.

Are all your extra prizes heatsinks? I have 16 'Cool off' rewards to redeem when the event starts, am i really that unlucky does everoyne have that?

Over a week to do the event.

Continuous small prizes instead of grinding for a big payoff.

Fun prizes like cockpit items and mech bays.

That thrill of hitting the prize button and not knowing what will happen.

I'll feel okay working on xp for my lights while playing even though the way points are awarded a medium + is a more sure way to hit 30 every time.

All leads to a great event! Thanks!

:) :) :) ;p

Your 16 rewards are random, you won't know what they actually are until you press the button to redeem them when the event actually starts.

Crummy weather this weekend, so good timing for me. I think this event should be a good one, and won't skew what folks are dropping in to make for some real head scratcher matches.

Give it another hour and a half, so the event has chance to actually start. ;)

When I click one of the "Cool Off" Buttons, it's telling me, "the event time has elapsed. you can no longer redeem."

So you are not alone :ph34r:

but really, wtf?

The redeem buttons won't be functional until the event begins.

YAY FREEBIES!
Kinda makes up for missing Isle of Wight Festival...

Now I just gotta struggle through the mechlab in 1024x768 (yeah, I know :( ) and ready up my dropdeck.

Unfortunately, due to technical issues we had to remove that part of the event.
Apologies for the inconvenience.

What sort of technical difficulties? If 4 prizes to choose from are too many for PGI's netcode, I would gladly take a choice of 2 prizes, similar to how we had choices between an IS/Clan mech for previous events. :)

Just redeemed my 32 for the clan pack, got 410 mc, 587k cbills, 1 day PT, and 1 cockpit fan. Very nice.

Also noticed that the 'unlucky' items are only heatsinks. Good theme work guys! Made me laugh.
