Hi there,

after the event I played a round of CW and on the first victory of the day for these Mechs in my CW-Dropdeck I didn't get the Announcement "First victory of the day" and no double XP

IS -Dropdeck used 2x JM and 1 BJ, 1 TDR not used (in CW Drop)

all had the 2x on display in the Mech select screen, before and after!


Before I played several lights in normal PUG-Games and got my double XP with the first victory of the day for each of these.


Premium bonus and Mechbonus for xp were given in PUG and CW.

Is this a bug or a new feature, that the double XP is only granted in Assault, Conquest and Skirmish but not in CW???

Thx

Greetings

Edit: my internet connection dropped in the first 10seconds of the match and I rejoined after ca. 5 mins.
maybe this has something to do with it?

This happend to me once. too. I accidentely ran out of bounds on grim portico with my last mech and killed myself. If you do run out of bounds you don't get the double xp on pug games or on cw.
I don't know if this is fact, if you get out of bounds with any of the Mechs on CW or only the last.
Maybe that was the reason ?

no I never was out of bound, but my screen showed the incoming "shuttles" with my mech in it on the minimap and then the mechs in shuttles went with the departing shuttle (because the server connection was already lost => maybe this counts as out of bounds

As I rejoined my mech dropped like it would do after shuttle release, but the game was already in the 5th minute of play so it should stand already in place and not drop

I got a ghostdrop now with no disconnect and I got the double-XP for first victory of the day with same dropdeck

only 750XP for 1 mech and in the match before I would have gotten 4times of it....

You don't get XP for mechs that didn't actually drop.

In a Ghost Drop... unless you manage to kill yourself (suicide or the turrets mauled you), the first mech you drop with gets the XP.

Double XP on applies when a mech didn't get the that bonus yet AND it actually gets used in CW.

If you had lost 3 mechs in CW and on your last mech, ALL 4 mechs that can qualify for double XP of the day.

To be clear on XP in CW...
Physically dropped with 1 mech (never used a second mech) = ONLY mech to get XP
Physically dropped with 2 mechs = both mechs you dropped with get XP
Physically dropped with 3 mechs = those 3 mechs get XP (the one you didn't drop with does not)
Physically dropped with 4 mechs (regardless of whether or not you lost all 4) = ALL Mechs get XP

The Double XP aspect applies when it hasn't been used yet for the day.

I hope it clears things up..

You said you had a disconnect? If it took you longer than 2 minutes to reconnect, you don't get the XP, etc. Prevents people from dropping into a match, disconnecting, coming back after 5 minutes with a "fresh" mech and farming kills against battle-damaged mechs.

Which XP, etc don't I get after rejoining a match?

that i already know

to clear things up:
in this CW-Drop I used 3 of 4 mechs. All 3 used mechs were unused on this day, so all should have been able to get the double XP for first victory
this match was won but I didn't get the double XP for first victory

maybe my loss of internetconnection did and rejoining after maybe 5mins caused this

You get none of it, no rewards, no XP, no CBills, if you take longer than 2 minutes to rejoin a game.

It's supposed to work that way but this being PGI, who knows what went wrong and where ...
