I did not bother with the challenge. I wouldn't have had the time anyway.
Ran around with my beloved Raven-3L trying to have fun and support my team-mates to victory. Results varied.
The amount of negativity, disconnecting, FF and hostility was depressing.

These challenges are hit and miss. Sorry PGI, this was a clear miss.

Yea, solo queue took a real nose dive in the quality of people in it and the total lack of any real qualities as people.

Such is solo queue. It will be somewhat back to normal Tuesday/Wednesday.

After 2 days and little progress I really struggled not to rage and DC every time I saw a repeat map again and again.

Very frustrating.

What were they thinking?

They were probably feeling awkward about us being too happy about the Anniversary Rewards.

The PTS, followed by this event, must have been the quick fix...

Well, clearly they didn't think we would have a large amount of players ruining the game for so many for so long.

Do you think we would have this many ******* in MWO? They come out in droves during these things, but this one was the worse behavior I have seen by a gaming community in a long time.

They will reap what they sow and karma is a *****.

I completed the CW event despite all odds, dropping against 12 man Mercstar in like every match. I'll take my C-bills, MC, and cockpit items thx! My morale is soaring!!

Of course I didnt bother wasting my time in standard que as most games are still a quick stomp one way or another

But I do agree Koors, this was one frustrating event. Between the 12 man stomps and the many players hiding so they don't get their score divided it got pretty bad at times. Had lots of DC's as well when people weren't getting a map they wanted.

I agree.

I even have seen respectable players disconnecting multiple times. Clearly intentional.

Safe to say they lost my respect for them.

For the Solo queue, yes.

The Group queue, nope.

Oh yeah cause in groups....exploit the system by deciding how to split up points. Drop against other groups..arrange the matches so that everyone gets 300/400
Oh yeah and then facilitate 8oo+ scores for unit memebers.
Hell group morale should be high

[SilentWolff]

Newsflash: The moral in the community dropped shortly after closed beta and has never recovered.

This event is has been about the worst thing for community morale I have seen in any game ever.

This combined with the rebalance let down really was a take a break moment.

On the up side, tomorrows update looks like one of the best this year, maybe the best. Seriously lets not forget that.

This game really needs some amazing updates before the end of the year.

You mistake me for some cheap ass exploiter and abuser of the system, I can assure you I am the FARTHEST thing from.

Now, if you wish to clump me in with that bunch of trash, you had better make damn sure your positive.

Far as the rest of your broad and wildly inaccurate statement, maybe join a Unit or a group of friends first and not base opinions on what a few cheap ass Units do.

And you cannot earn 200 points at all?

Really do not think map rotation is your problem if you cannot get 200 points.

I did 829 in one Game..
I wont get that one map i need at last.. and i played 8 hours today, in which i never saw Tourmaline Desert!!
Horrible random generator!

PS:
Ok, now i got it!
But seriously: 10 hrs gaming for one map?
PGI you forced me to complain about the game in the forum. Didnt do this in over 20 years of online gaming....
The event was driving the community mad. Many ( not me) were so upset, that they disconnected or in other ways sabotaged their teams. I was very aggravated about them, but in some manner i understand them, and beg you not to penalise them to hard.

Ya this wasnt even a challenge because dice rolls were involved or players exploiting to avoid those rolls.

Yes every match can be considered a dice roll but its not the same thing.

This is why I deliberately didnt finish. Not going to grind under those conditions.

[KharnZor]

i just want to grind my Maulers
