It predates the Weimar government. The KKK waves the American flag. Do we judge the Stars and Stripes because some fascists wave it around? Cuba's flag is based on the Stars and Stripes, but they are a totalitarian state. By your logic, the Stars and Stripes should be banned because it inspired the Cuban flag. And as long as we are at it, why does PGI allow the Republic of China to have a flag, which is definitely a totalitarian state responsible for killing 45 million plus people? Imperial Germany isn't the same as {Godwin's Law} germany by a long shot. The logic doesn't click with me. PGI may not want to make the old country flags or symbols - like England's golden lions, Imperial Chinese dragons, or Germany's black eagle, but if they do, they better not pick and choose which cultures get picked by your methods of selection and/or censorship!

As far as guilt by association, the US flag flew during the slave era and during the genocide of millions of American Indians. Take down one flag because of guilt by association, and you're going to have to take a whole lot more of them down unless, of course, politics is at work here, and not logic or history.... hmmmm.....

Actually You'd have to take them all down. History...History...History.

Anyone else not seeing points added even after meeting the match score of 30 req? I've played at least 6 games of Assualt and I have not gotten a single point for any of them.

It feels like the webpage is slower than usual at updating the points, but maybe that's just a trick of perception~

btw, has match score been documented somewhere by pgi?
I just had a match that I barely did anything (1 assist, 100-something damage, and a few spottings) and yet got 41 match score. (?)

I wish I had a Lithuanian flag and some other Americas countries to choose from.

[ExoForce]

I will not pick any flag. The only flag I would fight under would be Black Flag.

You only fight for bug spray?

So, this is the "We need to figure out which warhorns are terrible" event, bu looking at which free warhorns won are not put into mechs?

I'll tell you that most of your warhorns ARE terrible.

Go listen to the victory music of Star Control 2 ships... maybe too lengthy, but it should give you some ideas...

You're a bit uppity there aren't ya? Most of the warhorns in this game are good / decent, with some being full on amazeballs like the Steiner and Sonic Boom warhorns. If they ever release a warhorn that plays La Cucaracha that would be the greatest thing ever. Sorry MWO doesn't sound exactly like your 23 year old game.

Just had a match with 6 (or more, maybe they reconnect faster) disconnected in blue team. This would be five disco for me in few days, on EU server. I had only one or two disco from USA server since closed beta...

Sorry, I am totally noobing out here but.. I just completed 24 points in EU Conquest. My profile shows 24/24 complete, but I can't figure out how/where to get the flag? Am I missing something really obvious? I haven't got any pop-up's in game or anything..

Go here.
Scroll down, see where to pick flags.

And I had a match where I got 2 kills 1 assist ... and only 29 match points.

Beats the cr4p out of me.

[Deathlike]

The easiest way to figure out your score is simply raw damage divided by 10. If you do 300 damage, you get your 30 points guaranteed (win or lose).

A helpful way is to use a UAV for the "scouting bonus" (you have to do it early though, before anyone else), allowing more leeway for Light mechs or people struggling to get the 30 points to get it more easily.

Could we get these flags as well?

That would be awesome!

Does anyone know if this counts for groups too or if it's solo only?

[Codestar]

Groups work too.

Already racked up my 6 flags!

[HamburgerJung]

Great event, but I´m missing a warhorn in the mechlab. I got only 2 of 3 european horns.

[Rataxas]

well i got 24 points but can pick up the flags , still want me to pay 500 MC

[Motörhead]

Great event, especially because it lasted long enough to not making a grindfest if one wanted a decent quantity of the gifts.

I got 6 warhorns, 6 million cbills and then I took only 1 flag, EU union, since that's what the event was about

[Dorci]

Hello there!
Since the European server arrived, we have some problems while we are playing on the American server. We (me & my boyfriend) play in a group from the same internet. Our ping is sometimes over 1000-1400, but if the game displays normal pings, we still have terrible lags, it makes the game unplayable. We are from Hungary, the EU server is working correctly, but there wasnt any problem with the American one before the EU server arrived. We checked our internet connection on speedtest, the internet has no problem, we checked everything. Even if we close our browsers or other programs that require internet connection, the lag is still on (we restarted the modem twice). Any ideas or similar problem anyone?

I earned the Six Flags. Where is my rollercoaster...?

[el piromaniaco]

12 points in every discipline on each server.

That's enough, don't care about flags.

Thanks PGI!
