Just dont nerf the clans if we win, clans are almost (or already) dead anyway with those "great" """""balance""""" quirks.

[OffC3nter]

Love the change to the cumulative match scores. Was planning on blowing this one off, but now the personal challenge is reasonable i will likely be playing some games this weekend.

Clan nerf on possible Tukkayid 2 win confirmed .

Thanks for changing the personell reward scores to cumulative match scoreing instead of requireing a very large number of personal points. This makes it actually achievable without a ludicious investment of time.

Though I do agree with your problem of short announcements. Giving people more time would be nice.

[Husker Dude]

Yeah, I guess if I had to weigh which I'd like fixed more (cumulative scoring or contract resets), I'd definitely take the scoring, but I'm still a bit bummed I won't be with my given faction.

[TheSilken]

Anyone else feel the approach of CW phase 3 is very close?

"During this battle, Inner Sphere Drop Deck tonnage limits are set at 240 tons to test the latest balance changes in Clan vs. IS engagements."

How has nobody commented on this yet? I feel like they ninja added this line into the announcement page last night.

Wow, I definitely didn't see that previously. That's going to be a bit of a wrinkle for some maps.

Hey everyone,

We have adjusted the Personal Challenge goal structure to base it on cumulative Match Score over the course of the event, rather than the original per-Match/Event Point system. Event page has been updated with the new structure.

Well that is just awesome indeed. Many thanks

So sad, that I wont participate on this event. PUGs are okay and CW just doesn't work. I'm not surprised that the game has bad reviews as its far from a Mechwarrior game, its really just Solaris

Solo and coop missions are badly needed, a total rebuild of CW should be done, funny that Mechwarrior living legends a fan made game mod was more fun and even had more to offer than just Mechs.

[Callinicus]

I think we just uninstall the game today. :-(

Started a CW and my friend Belzador faced some issue and can't load in. Now he try repair but the CW battle ended... also its highly demoralizing.

Also highly demoralizing he just bought a Resistance II pack for CW, and now its absolutly invalid. He liked all the (S) mechs in it, except the wolfhound, and now he can't made a valid drop with mauler/knight/crab because of this annoying tonn change!

So I guess PGI just lost 80+ USD and two player today... :-(

[Kael Posavatz]

Um... Mauler (90)/Knight(75)/Crab(50)

That's 215 tons. Pick up a Locust or Commando as throwaway tonnage and try to restrict yourself to the first three mechs. GXP to quick-level before event.

If you are feeling generous to PGI, drop MC and pick up the Pirates Bane, otherwise the LCT-1E is the way to go.

I hope this helps.

[Sigmar Sich]

If 240 is our limit, so shall it be! Bring it on!
Clans are still 250 tonns limit? If so, very wierd decision..really WIERD..
(or was they 240 all the time? . still wierd, we are far from fair balance, with extraordinary pieces rise from both sides)

Few minutes between us and glory! Let the battle begins!

Not helps, (I tried) he just payed 80 USD for a drop and he still not have the C-Bills to arm them properly, also after buying 12 mechs don't want to buy a new one, want to play with his red/black c-bill boosted well equipped resistance mechs. (I think this is absolutly understandable.)

This kind of steps could kill rookie pilots, who WANT to love this game, but not get any support to do it. :-(

Getting free commandos (I would be suprised) maybe would help on his mood. :-( (Still don't have the C-Bill for arm them.)

And the absolutly ridicoulus point in the story, I checked the 2 trial lights on IS side are 35 tonns jenner and raven. Not any commando or locust...

If you and your friend are this much of a rookie, do yourself a favor and stay away from CW for now. It is hard mode, without any matchmaker to attempt to balance skill. You will be very upset and frustrated, especially if he doesn't have the cbills to equip his new resistance mechs. Honestly, you two will make more per hour in quick play right now with those mechs anyway. Stick around there until you have 4 mechs fully built out.

I'm not trying to be condescending, just some advice. CW is the big leagues for fully equiped and mastered mechs with pilots who know how to use them. It doesn't sound like you're there, yet.

You have some right. (I have 4 thunderbolt, 3 dragon, 2 hunchback, 2 cicada, 1 raven, 1 atlas, full elit so i am not that rookie) but he can make 800-1100 dmg with that build, so I think he isn't a big pull back for a pug CW group.

[TheLuc]

Sorry for your pal and you Callinicus, just stay away of CW and all the issues will be solved right there. Just stick with regular games and you will see that in the time you play a match of CW you will make more CBills with PUGs.

CW to get a match is hellish long and its just more of the same, penalties for the Mechs you have that are taken out of the match, with PUGs you dont have that, its quicker to get a game, as soon as you are taken out jump in the next match, as a bonus you the that X2 multiplier for first victory of the day and this is for each Mech you own.

got all my Mechs kitted out for CW ( I got like 20 in my hangar ) played 2-3 times and i just quit the CW thing, its just a chore, not fun and way too long to get a match or play.

[Helene de Montfort]

Yeah, sure, stay away from CW this weekend...

The cool rewards? Not for noobs, it's only for PGM, elite players are the only one worthy...

You know what elite players? You can shove your biggest mechs up where the sun never shine, i could have dropped with some fine mechs at 250 tons, now i have to drop with a couple ****** ones, made even ******** by the fact i don't like playing them... Just pray you don't end up in my team, or you will have to carry a lot more, because i have only 150 tons worth of battle steel, the rest is garbage.
