Can I haz weekend something?

[Afuldan McKronik]

Weekend Weight Class Challenge. Open leaderboards for every weight class. Make the board show which variant each top 50 used. Plzzzz.

Leaderboards are still about who got to spam launch button most right? Not worth caring about...people must want more crap to clutter up their cockpit with to care about weekend events.

Simple solution : don't offer cockpit items. Offer (C) mechs again like Phase 3 launch.

Why, exactly? Would it perhaps show exactly where balance is at the moment across all 4 weight classes, right before a rebalance patch, and give the devs some info?

When has Paul ever used that data, and used it correctly?

I would bet dollars to beer that PGI knows exactly what mechs gets used, why they get used, and what the balance is across all the weight classes is like. I'm sure that data is there on their systems, but for what ever reason our Balance Overlord does not or will not look at the data for what ever reason. It's why weapons like the MG, that just need a simple .XML change to go from bad to okay doesn't happen. There are enough simple and balanced fixes for a lot of the weapons that the community has figured out, but for what ever reason, these simple and balanced fixes seem to be ignored or not understood by Paul; the Balance Overlord.

It would show it in a simple format, capable of being read by anyone, instead of hidden away. But what do I know.

I'd rather have another PGI hunt event. It's been what 2-3 years since we had one? Tons of fun that.

The last open leaderboard event was September...

NINE
MONTHS
AGO

Since then, the only way you could play a leaderboard event is if you had pre-ordered a mech. Basically an entrance fee for crap rewards.

I'm onboard. I've got 20 mechs left in my Mechbay, all basiced and 6 elited. I'd love to push a bunch across the line with double XP.

Clan vs Clan and IS vs IS Event is best!

Been a while for Double XP. Would recommend it before the next mech is released.

Leaderboards are very toxic and unhealthy.
Also, please stop bringing in "info for the devs" argument. They have that info already. All they need to do is to USE it.

Forums are very toxic and unhealthy also. Yet here we are.

Heres a fixed wording for you then.

Would it perhaps show exactly what mechs the playerbase should be QQing about across all 4 weight classes?
