Is there going to be an opportunity to break a contract without penalty in order to align to the faction you want like last time?

Anybody?

[Kael Posavatz]

Hmm...

Unfortunate as my unit is on permanent contract to Clan Wolf because I do like a good blue color.

I don't suppose you could make this 'free premium color of your choice', or even 'pick either Sapphire or Caput Mortem' the way we could pick between the Champion-Banshee and the Warhawk-C the first time we fought over this planet?

I agree with RustyBolts, I'm on contract and would like to join a unit that's in a different faction.
Or the unit wishes to fight for a different faction, but now stuck on contract.
72hrs would be too long to wait to change!

I think this is a test, but at least think about the players and where they would like to be!

I'll 2nd (or 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th if necessary) this, I wish to rejoin a Unit that is in a different Faction at present but the cooldown will take me through to mid-Sunday.

Also is there anyway for you (PGI) to check with the larger Units and see where they want to fight? This way you can try to balance the populations a little closer than the last BoT event.

Ugh no.

Having a back to back CW event grinding is not interesting at all. The prizes should have been better (or equal to the last) and not less than the previous event if you're going to run this.

The Quick Play half was really enjoyable and we really thank you for that. It even brought out our casual players back. The CW half was a slog and only bearable due to prizes and smaller wait times (not 30+ minutes thankfully) The ONLY Negative: Again we have the 12 man premade's stomping a co-ordinated stomp vs. the random PUG scrape (of which I was part of.)

This isn't even worth posting to our Gaming group page. Sorry we're gonna pass on this one its not worth the waste of time and superfluous banners and cockpit junk.

Thanks again for the last event, it was quite enjoyable. This would be just another grind/stomp fest.

Get on your faction Team speak. There is MC enough from the last event and this event to buy a nice Hero mech also and cockpit junk to add to it. Plus enough cbills from match earnings and rewards to fully fit said Hero mech with radar dep/seismic and mods. Do you have any foresight?


People need to quit being so negative.

Clan Wolf is already blockading Terra.


Please explain why we should climb back in our DropShips and travel 2/3rds the way back to the Periphery to engage in a proxy battle while we have the planet right here?

[YaKillinMeSmalls]

IS gets an Urbie cockpit item as a reward and Clans don't? Ok, I take back what I've been saying. IS OP.

"Because Comstar"?

Seriously though, the rewards are still rather meh. Although the C-Bills rewards aren't totally awful... I remember being able to get a mech prize.

The anouncment time is pretty short. You don't even have enough time to skip the old contract (allign to the home faction), because 3 days. Gosh damn it

[KursedVixen]

I hope you Inner cube pilots have to observe full Zellbrigen in this event, and give your life for your lords and masters while your leaders sit back and command the battle from their safe capital worlds

[KillaBeez1972]

Hi Folkz,

to reach every goal in personal challenge at least 40 Matches maybe 45 must be done in 3 Days?
Every match will be around 30 minutes with the waiting time.
Makes 20-22 Hours in 3 days.
I must play 7 hours a day to get everything done?
Why not 7 days for this event?

[E X C A L I B U R]

will different factions have to ability to group up? for example, can CGB individuals group up with CW?

[Husker Dude]

Yeah, I would like to revert back to my normal faction for this.
I'm still on the IS side, but I'd rather be fighting for the Steiners.

[CycKath]

Pass. Not enough of a draw to a CW puggers.

[Precentor Ward]

Ah hahaha! Nerf clan heat and range then start a new CW event, priceless! I mean there is really not much gap between the two things. Anyway, if IS gets smashed again there really will be a lot of salt ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Btw why the frack is there not a ComStar Faction?? I can have a ComStar warhorn but not a faction to play in?? The Com Guards carried this whole event, they're beasts! Get your act together PGI

We even won the last battle, so why is Terra not ours NOW? I feel cheated.

[Navid A1]

So we had a grand re-balance yesterday...
Innersphere overlords now rein supreme.

however...
Lets refresh some memories from tukayyid 1 event:
You remember the Thunderthug-9S super PPC era?.... and by a great grand coincidence, it was just before tukayyid 1 too.

[Jack Spade Ward]

How many clanners will change to IS in this event? I know some units are.
Remember, people will always go to the current meta... but, in fact, what saves the clans is that most skilled players play in clan units. Why? Because they know that clans are not as OP as IS fanboys cry, those mechs are harder to pilot, to manage and its weapons arent as good one might think, but they are better if used properly.
To sum, i believe that most comp teams will be IS in this event, is where the meta is, and it will be a stomp

[ChewBaka]

Holy Grind!

That said, I'm likely to still participate in the event but I'll probably stop at 15 points after I get the 500 MC and the Premium Color.

After that, I'd really rather focus on RL instead. That additional 500 MC is nice but 40 CW games...ugh...

Really, PGI? You want me to devote close to 20+ hours of my life to your game on a weekend? No thanks...

So this way we can spare Terra from the ravages of war by fighting at Tukayyid.
