That's some serious MC as prize. Such a nice gesture for anyone who bought that package.

Well I know what I'm doing for the next week. Need me some free colors

Nice challenge event. I wish I could partake but RL trumps MWO for the next 10 days or so.

Best chuck the 3/3/3/3 system out the window, Russ. Otherwise, it's going to be nearly impossible for people to get all the rewards for all four of those mechs.

Uh...the 3/3/3/3 system is long gone. Group queue is tonnage based and I haven't seen 3/3/3/3 in a solo match in forever.

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

[Lorian Sunrider]

Gonna be a grindy kind of weekend!

[mp00]

What no "Alpha Lance Packs" for sale?

I kind of expected different lance packs for sale with each including 1 of each mech..

1 Marauder, Warhammer, Rifleman and Archer in each pack and different packs available..

[Dr Marie Delacroix]

[Johnny Z]

Even the personal challenge rewards are generous. Nice.

Psht. When the Marauder first came out, my first few games were in teams comprised of at least 75% Marauders

Whooooohoooo


Heavy queue percentage put aside ... I LIKE IT!!!!

Free stuff is always great, never can get enough of warhorns, or colours for that matter

I'm one happy mechwarrior !!

Thanx PGI!


Have a great weekend everyone!

[Aylek]

Pretty generous & nicely doable by just dropping. Heavy queue will probably a painful, but at least the event lasts for full five days.

Thank you!

<*drops by, pre-reviews event*>

Hmm... I've at least had some rest, so I'm able to pre-review this calmly. The personal challenges have a Color, a Warhorn, and even a reasonable amount of MC... Looks good so far.

<*looks a little more closely*>

YES!!! They finally listened and set the time ratio right! 4 KMDD per day average! Thank you, PGI, because you finally made what I can call a perfect event!

I can even see someone else whom I happen to know managing to complete (and not falling behind into failure due to lack of time) this event. Now to just make sure they jump on and get it done. I might even be able to avoid pushing myself too hard as well, provided real life doesn't go about pulling one on me. But I can't see anywhere at all to blame PGI this time around, no matter how things turn out.

See you all out on the battlefield?

[Sky Hawk]

You know... in event times, I have big problems with the KMDD's (because, my playstyle, skills, etc).. And, when I saw this Alpha-Lance page.. and I looked at the "10 KMDD" row.. I thought: "Yes, yes, yes, yes... PGI decreased the KMDD limits.. Ye!"

Then... I recognised, that there is still a "20 KMDD" in the "Standard Challenge.." part.. And I just... "Daaaaaaaaam..!"

Anyway.. PGI, thanks for the challenge!.. After all it will be rainy outside, all weekend long... so I can/will play MWO..

(Hmm.. an event... Ye.. I guess than,... it will be rainy ingame too.. Right? )

So, since I don't have any of those mech packs, its 150MC and a bunch of monkeys for my cockpit?

I might login this weekend to participate after all, but I'm doing it for the monkeys.
