bad joke is 25 points win but we can not have access WHAT gives 25 points. That's bad joke.

If only you spoke spanish instead of portugese I might be able to help...

Si habla espanol, yo podria ayudarte...

[K19]

Portuguese is not the same as Spanish but this well.
The scene and the following 25 points to the PGI mentions are for? I already have the PGI the accounts and would like to have the Cyclops and so difficult to understand there is a joke.

PT.
Português não e o mesmo que espanhol mas esta bem.
A cena e o seguinte os 25 pontos que a PGI menciona são para que? Eu já os tenho pelas contas de PGI e gostaria de ter o Ciclope e assim tão difícil de entender ai está a piada.

[Saobh]

Ignore the "25 points" part. If you have any of the pre release Mech packs (Cyclops for example) you get an added 25 x loot bags to try your luck at.

Why they don't call them loot bags outright I have no idea.

I don´t want to complain about free stuff, but I want to point out how lucky the most ppl. with the grand price are:
100 qp made, no gp, 7 sm no gp and one invasion still no gp.
And its sad that there are so few cw matches around atm to finish these.
I have around 10 ghost drops on each gamemode and there is no qualification for lootbags of cause.
Now I have tons of cardecks and urbiewarhorns which are complete useless for me.
Well, I think I am not on the lucky side of life .

I feel you, if its any consolation i missed the champion timberwolf + mechbay which is worth more than this grand prize tbh... ...and that was with me being a guy that buys a lot of stuff from mwo!

Just remember its all just a carrot to make people spend more. Its bonus stuff that means jack diddly in the long run.

I bet you've collected enough mc to buy 2-3 mechbays in the meantime right?

I made on this event around 400 MC.
If we get an Mechbay sale, then yes, 2 at least.

[marcusgioavanti]

well 50 redeems now

still no cockpit items whatsoever

did get the grand prize though!

[Lorginir]

Half qp through, no GP, ~150 mc, 4 identical warhorns, rest is just junk. Not sure if there is any point to continue trying, especially with kind of teams I'm getting.

[Apollo777]

please extend the event one more week. thx.

[Dee Eight]

the event duration is fine. People need to stop whining because they can't finish grabbing loot.

[Helene de Montfort]

the games stopped logging for the event? My last game logged was 2h30 ago?

Ah, they started logging again, but a few look missing...

[DAYLEET]

I LIKED THAT THE SCORE BOARD IN THE TOURNAMENT PRIZE PAGE SAID WHICH MECH YOU WERE DRIVING IN PAST EVENTS.

[paws2sky]

It took 60 pulls (35 match, 25 from the Cyclops), but I finally got the grand prize. Yay, me. I don't know why, but this one felt like it took forever.

-paws

[Dee Eight]

Has anyone pulled the grand prize twice or is that one capped at one per player ?

[Helene de Montfort]

I got the grand prize after a dozen games... of course, it's not what i was interested in, none of my mechs can use a xl400... I'm still hoping to get an urbie warhorn...

It says 1 Grand Prize. It's the only item in the list for which the amount is specified. Sadly the chances it happens are under 1% or everybody would have gotten one just with QP games. I just reached the 100 QP games and had no grand prize here. I'll just go and be a potato in CW later in order to get more attempts.

[Boclos]

so far 72 pulls. no GP,

but
~350 mc
~2.5 m c-bills
~ 1 warhorn (kickers)
and some consumables

[Laughing Fat Man]

After 125 pulls (100 QP and a preorder) I got 5 classic isobaric speakers but only one (real) grand prize, the Urbanmech Warhorn.

Didn't get Grand Prize tho

[DGTLDaemon]

Finally got the grand prize, after 68 QP matches, 11 scouting matches, and 3 invasions - a total of 82 attempts. Also got over 300 MC, a bunch of C-Bills and GXP, some consumables, and a ton of useless cockpit items All in all, it's way more than is usually offered as event rewards. So big thanks to PGI, they definitely got generous this time. I'm still not sure about the 400 XL engine as the grand prize, because only a few people can actually use it - but hey, it's free, and it can be sold for a bunch of C-Bills
