Sadly, this is worse than the "Blood Money" rewards tourney.

Thanks PGI, nice simple event that isn't reliant on random factors we cannot control!

Nice and easy event, but what will we complain about?

Don't worry, I'm sure the community will find something...

Nice, thanks PGI!

Also, I think the name is a cheekily clever given the last Event's debacle. ;)

So...i was looking at these NEW LOYALTY MECHS.

I hope PGI reconsiders on giving these NEW LOYALTY MECHS A COOL DESIGN.
The Angel on the 1 year Loyalty MECHS were awesome....Please Repeat or have another Cool Design

Come forth yee LRM boats. Rain on the parade of everyone around you for 20 matches. Funny. I was just logging in real quick to see what I could make on a LRM crab boat. Don't own any heavies. NOT going to buy one because I want my marauder pack to be my only heavy. Trial mechs here I come?

A nice refinement of the previous event with less parts and thankfully no reason for tards to disco every match till they got the map they wanted.

Edit: Now that i think about the grind.... it's ok PGI... just make sure to have the other grinds in these coming weeks!

Hooray... another excuse for players to bring out dedicated Large Laser, Gauss and LRM mechs so that they can rack up damage without receiving any, instead of using their armour to cover for their teammates. I just love seeing Twin Gauss mechs with 96% health at the end of a match.

Every time an event rolls on, brawler players get screwed big time because they rely heavily on their teammates for damage absorption and focus fire. Doesn't help when they're 1.5km away taking potshots. You're just encouraging MWO to become what MW4 was - ridiculously high alphas, poptarting and sniping only.

I won't be participating for this event. Brings out the worst in the players. All for a measly 4mil C-Bills. Worst reward yet for lots of work.

yeah... its a laptop.
double bummer is that it broke down due to a mainboard power failure 50 days ago just as i arrived for a vacation somewhere... with no MSI service centre nearby, had to wait till i get back from the said vacation to return it for repairs... which hopefully takes 20 days.

:(

Sadly, you try to be the first on every announcement to grab "likes" with a controversy. No one takes you serious ..

Actually, I just randomly hit refresh, and it comes up.

Sometimes it's better to be lucky than to be good in this instance.
