Looks like i'll take a break from leveling light mechs =)

Nice event! I like!

Hmm... the overall players get yellow... the Rifleman players get Purple... what does that remind me of?

Nice event, nice prices. I am looking forward to get some of those.

However I think the time might be too slim since it all is about the already crowded heavy queue. So any chance of a prolonged time frame for this?

[Narcissistic Martyr]

I bought camo black long long ago but I really wanted obsidian black... the difference is so slight though i couldn't convince myself to buy it. Hooray obsidian black shall be mine!

FML do i need to cave in and buy a Warhammer?

Seriusly considering that too.
I also wanted to get the hero Marauder...
15$ Bounty Hunter upgrade + 20$ standard pack WHM + 15$ Black Widow.
Decisions, decisions...

[Aylek]

I can sadly advise not to buy the Bounty Hunter. Those $15 are better spend for the Black Widow, which has been a beasty mech in literally every single more serious loadout until today.

[PeterPansen]

Awesome! 3 free colors and warhorns for me.
Thank you, guys!

I agree that the MAD-3R is the best Marauder, but the +30% C-Bills of the BH2 is useful and I like the hero idea...
We'll see.
Certainly I will take the Warhammer pack with the Hero.

[avenger cannon]

Here I was just bitching about this game and another event rolls around tempting me to spend like 60$ >.> For so little reward by comparison, just for the challenge of it.

[Morggo]

Yesss! That's a pile of free Phoenix Warhorns... my favorite! Move the fridge next to the desk.. here comes the happy grind!

These rewards are sweet, thanks PGI !

[Duncan1dah0]

The assault queue is going to be rough.

[ExoForce]

Please correct 10,000 XP - 750 XP to 750 GXP in Personal challenge event page and game database.

Surat brings bad luck. Would trade 3 of them for a Lump of Coal.

And nobody will play CW this weekend due to the event... I hope that after Phase 3 they'll organize events also for Faction Play

[Volts]

What has my life come to that I am cancelling weekend plans to play mwo :/

It's nice when they do, but they will need to up the faction play rewards to reflect the added time investment. I can finish anywhere between 2 to 6 public matches in the time it takes to do 1 CW match without considering queue time. Hopefully phase 3 will address the queue time and the lack of participants.

I doubt you'd regret it. It's the easy best of these four, IMO. I'll be finishing the other three first, saving it for a "treat" at the end.

[invernomuto]

Damn these events. I finished buying the warhammer pack + Black widow...
For just 50 mc, 250k C-Bills and the obsidian black colour (my main driver )

[kesmai]

NO.
this sucks.
extra grab bags are ok.
leaderboards are ok.
this is plain and simple a "f.uck you normal customer" to those that haven´t shelled out the money for the mechs.

i have way over 200 mechs and paid for quite few of them, but this "alpha lance challenge" is a hit in the face.
think it over for the next time pgi.

[B L O O D W I T C H]

Not a fan of whalesupporting events, i get that it's a good way to say "thank you for purchasing" to those who bought packs but it leaves a sour taste for all those who did not chip in.

On the other hand, the personal challenge rewards are so generous, how could i be mad.
I actually think it would be rude to demand even more rewards. Tho, a grand price for clearing the personal challenge would have been nice too.
Then again, such rewards, much wow.

Thanks PGI!
