I got 5 heatsinks, one of which was a single. The rest were pretty good though.

Previously I said about 10 hours of CW to get all 40. It is actually 20 hours. In CW you get 40 in about 20 hours while in Skirmish,Assault,Conquest you get 60 in about 15 hours. That is really not fair at all. CW takes twice as long so rewards should be twice as much. You also have to get a match score that is more than twice than in the other modes to qualify. I am really getting sick and tired of seeing CW getting shafted in these type of events.

Those 32 'free' unlocks from the executioner pack actually weren't all that bad.

As expected, not a single cockpit item, but 2500GXP, 180MC (which is what, 75 cents worth? oh boy!), 1,044,000 c-bills (hey that's almost a free DHS upgrade on an IS mech), 1 day of premium time, and 3 MC consumables. Lowest MC awarded was 5, highest was 50. Lowest c-bills was 50k, highest was 112,500. GXP appears to be in increments of 100, starting at 200 and capping at 500.

This was just from my 32 though so actual numbers might vary.

Actually that's assuming your matches are 50/50 counter-attack and invasion. They won't be, so it would probably take even longer.. 80 points in CW is a joke by the way.

I think it would have had been interesting if it happens after the two wave 3 mechs were released.

I just realized this even lasts till next weekend. You might be able to take part in it.

Whilst I agree the CW prizes could do with a buff given the time involved in getting/playing a game,
why the complaints about the 80 points to qualify?
You get FOUR mech's to score this. Surely 20points per mech isn't too much for you?
I hardly play CW, but applying all the basic rules of playing a solo PUG 80 points is no problem.

Btw I started a petition to get CW on equal terms with the rest of the modes for these type of events.

Edit: And getting the 80 match score is not the issue. It is the time invested to get the rewards.

Actually the 80 points in CW is very easy to get. I constantly see most, if not all get more than that.

If i recall, all we need is get is 6-700 dmg, that's about 150-200 dmg per mech.

As I said, the minimum 80 points is easy to get, with 4 mechs in your deck to achieve it with.
For the damage, I feel I've let my team down when I score below 1000 damage, but it happens, heyho.
I consider my job done if I take down at least 240 ton of enemy mech, (same as my drop deck).

Gotta give credit to (most of) the community in these events.
When something like this is going on, I do see a little chat now and then, asking if anyone needs help getting points.
Well I raise my tankard to those pilots! :)

I'd like to take this moment to reiterate my advice for all future match-score-based events: allow for roll-over scoring.

If I get 120+ MS in an Instant Action match, give me 3 qualification credits. If I get 160+ in CW, give me 2.
