and the disconnection part is gone...

this is a kindergarten game... unbelievable

if you whine enough you get all you want...

starts to get boring... so much

What part of "Your disconnect counter is incorrectly penalizing players that are obeying the rules of the tournament." and "We at PGI can't figure out why it's doing this so we'll just shut down the disconnect counter completely for now." are you interpreting as "You fairly made this tournament too hard, so make it easier!"?

I'm getting, "We're doing a quick fix so we don't have to suspend the event completely, and we'll try something like this again later once we've solved it."

You lucked out and didn't get unfairly penalized, and now you are upset that the game is not being unfair in your favor?

Random is norm, but CW score is make best not win but survive. So CW leaderboard is fake.

The amount of points you need to get in normal play is a bit high. I won't even try it in a light or medium. This is more about doing the most damage with a few kills then anything else. Spotting/narcing/tagging is useless in these kind of events. Or at least useless for the person spotting. If you look a the queue it says it all: 38% heavies, 33% assaults and only 14% ish for lights and mediums. They should really make this scoring system better. Or at least 'fairer' for the none damage dealers.

This is one of the things that annoys me about MWO. Being a real team player isn't rewarded in the slighted. A light scouting should be rewarded for it in match score.

Yeah I was in clan wars and watched you drop client with two mechs left buddy.... I dislike people who can post such high scores and all the while abuse the scoring system as systematically as you do.

I'm not playing to provide a high score, only training up some mechs...you can see a tactical shift and a defined way people play when this event is going on all to get a higher score. I was just complaining I would be DQ'd for playing like I always do for this event earlier. Now it's watching people boast on here about the scores they have and how Clan Wars is biased all the while those people exploit every chance they can.

Not a challenge for commando's :D or is it a challenge ;-)

Normalized score to weight or average chassis performance would be awesome :P

99% of players probably will not get near the leaderboard.

Not really an event for everyone. Someone ask Russ on Twit what percentage of the player base is going to get any prizes. PGI has all the metrics and stats, they know what tiny sliver of the population is actually going to get something from this event.

Of course not since there are more than 1000 players: 10/1000+ < 1%

What´s really appealing with the event is that MC we could all get. And PGI move to get even more MC if you are an above average player in CW is a good incentive to bring more people to it.

I guess most people playing MWO wont get the prizes, but well at least we can try and have fun with it. This event is harder than others, maybe because if you achieve it, you get a whole big pack instead of individual prizes.

Sorry if this question has been sorted out before but:
"You can only qualify for one instance of each Prize Pack."

Does that mean I can only get tier 1 or tier 2, or do I get both if I qualify for tier 2?
I get that I can get at least 1 pack for random queue and 1 pack for CW

Thanks in advance!
