Any chance for stretch goals for all those players who already finished all the stuff?

OR they could have just not extended it.

Maybe it was a last minute decision based on completion stats or requests from the hoi polloi in the forums or customer service inbox.

You've been given a second chance at completing goals and getting free things and having fun with a game you like and you're telling them they didn't meet your timelines for giving MORE to you?

Yikes.


Well, it's logic - IF you plan on extending a deadline in order to alleviate the pressure for your players, do at a point where this pressure hasn't build up.

And, since you are heavily uninformed - I finished this challenge without any need for the ten days already granted.
I am just considerate of my fellow men.

Thanks for extending the event for those of us who do not have limitless amounts of free time!

Thanks for extending the event, the '180 intel gathered" part took me forever, now maybe I will also complete invasion challenge.

Excellent Idea to extend the event another week. I managed to finish up early Monday morning, but I know many that didn't finish in time.

How about a "Mech bay Sale" as an added showing of positive spirit! :) :)

Thanks for extending the event!

I was a few games short of the grand prizes and had a power outage last night. I appreciate the opportunity to finish it up!

That'll happen the weekend after the patch, which includes the Kodiak release. It will be a Kodiak leaderboard challenge event which will follow the format of the last four leaderboard challenges which were done for the classic four heavies released from Dec-March.

Having to wait 5-15 minutes to land in a match and somehow complete all of the required matches (while also having life obligations) is definitely the most "challenging" part of the challenge.


As PGI would say, "Working as intended". I gave up early & couldn't have been happier spending time on another hobby and enjoying friends/family in the sun.

MWO/CW has become more of a chore than a game.

Ok, look - PGI says "We have CW event with decent rewards! Go try it!". So I ask my family to wait and give me some time to do it - they say "ok dad, we can wait (and go to Zoo next weekend) and give you time to relax and play". So I've put like 60-80% of my free time to this event. Done it all. 100% solo. And now PGI says "we are extending it! secebrate!". Do You get why im angry!?

P.S. Guys THINK BEFORE you anonce event! Not AFTER! Thanks for ruined mood.

it's great that you're giving peeps more time, but I'm a little sore as I ground out 7 matches last night, until 2.30 am!

So I completed it, but don't have limitless play time, just chronic sleep deprivation ;)

Thanks for extending the event. I just got finished moving across the state which was a couple weeks long process and sat down a few days ago to play and was excited about the event until I saw there was no way I'd be able to finish it in time.

Now I can!

So I finally get into a winning invasion match.... and you have lost connection to the server, and I cannot rejoin.

I have never lost connection to any game I can remember since I started playing MWO. The connection on my end is fine. This is the second match I have lost connection to since this event, the first being a scouting mission.

The time investment in this event is ridiculous enough, now I lose one of my precious invasion victories on top of it. Can't help but feel a little face slapped right now. Faction Play already gives the middle finger to solo players, and now I'm losing connection, and experiencing lag spikes in the middle of a fight. GG PGI

I was wondering if this was going to get extended. I finished the scouting on Thursday or Friday and had someone call me a "machine" which felt like a little bit of an overstatement, but then I started invasion mode...

I had someone on the opposing force on a match thank us for showing up and claiming a 90 minute wait to get a match. Even if he's an outlier, it is essentially impossible to get 30 drops in the week if it takes 2 hours apiece.

I hope traffic stays good on the servers, I'm not up for binge watching the first 5 seasons of Game of Thrones while I'm in queue this week.

There is nothing they are giving away that is worth a 10 minute wait, much less 90. That is dedication.
