You all do realize the tracker is delayed by 30 minutes or more correct?

In my case, it's been a day or so. Sorry for being impatient.

Can't remember who said it, but thank you guy that said how the overheat one works. You have to overheat WITHOUT override, AND overheat WITH override in the same match....and survive. It worked after I did both like that.

That makes sense. I was trying for it over and over again.

Yeah, I'm seeing mine go up using this method.

But it doesn't always record it...

Think they should lower the defensive kill challenge as well... so hard to um well - you can't force the other team to base cap. Its all pure luck, who knows maybe that one will be easier to get in faction play?

Yeah I feel like defensive kills are pretty rare. Got the call to RTB to help some lights defend our base from an Archer and 2 scouts. The archer died on the way there so as soon as I show up I blow the Ravens Leg off, 2 hit the locus and put another 20SRMs into the raven to finish him off. They were both near the base and had nearly capped it when I did so BUT since they were not actively capping when they died, no reward.

Perhaps defensive kill should be changed in some way. Mechs killed near base who were capping or mechs killed withing X seconds of capping... Something like that.

Actually ended up getting it. Started overheating my marauder (runs hot anyways) in all the ways imaginable last night when I realized something was off. Thank you though

Its interesting that after promising to not implement 3rd person view this version of it is nearly entirely worthless for its states purpose (Game-play) and is pretty much ONLY good for looking over/around walls and cover. Doesn't do what its supposed to do, does allow you to do what the community was afraid it would.

Stupid pointless MM and PSR

+ Events players ( potatoes )
+ Stupid event achievement ( potatoes )


= playing in the best Esport in tha world during this weekend

[Kaptain]

Now that more things can be tracked would it be possible to add rewards for

-Long Range Detection (1000+) (bap/advanced sensor range)
-Shut Down Mech Detection (Bap)
-AMS proximity protection (protect a friendly from LRMs with your AMS)
-Damaging an enemy mech while its capping

And can we please please please have a damage taken stat? Even if it does not reward us it would be nice to able to see how much damage we tanked before going down.

The event is buggy. I got manny games where i overheated, and even lost components to overheating and i survived the game with override enabled - didnt get a single point for that part of the challenge. Updated several other challenge points and got rewards. It isnt the time the server takes to update the entrys.

Manny people in ym little clan have problem with getting challenge points accredited. Whole game in 3rd person - yes they did enable it in the options menue - 2 kills game survived nothing for them. Have a lootk at that pls.

For defensive kills it's best to use a lrm boat and kill someone who's shooting at you while walking backwards, not a problem with a lrm5 jenner.

[Commander A9]

Well, with defensive kills, you have to kill them while you or they are inside capture points correct?

For thingts like this don't ask PGI but ask smurfy or li song mechlab i mean PGI don't give **** about inform their playerbase and i don't talk about the answer of matt in this tread ...

[ManOfAthens]

Yeah... 3rd person thing not working. Had a game where I was careful to not have the drone glitch back into my mech.. Still didn't get credit. Do they have it set to solo kill?

I'm actually asking the community, here-us.

If anyone managed to get the Defensive Kills, how did you manage to pull it off? And how can you do it in Community Warfare?

Nope, in my very first match that should've counted, I stumbled over a hiding AFK and got the solo Kill.

[Commander A9]

Well, I've seen THIS, but it's also several years old. Is it still accurate?

[Waxjock]

Yea, I suffered through the physically sickening 3rd person mode to get a pathetic amount of premium time that would probably run out by the time I got a chance to actually use it anyway. Enabled "start in 3rd person" settings, got one kill, and survived to win the match at least twice confirmed. Over 18 hours later; no recognition at all.

[White Bear 84]

Bit late to the party.. ..but why on earth encourage 3PV..

[SVTmk]

Somebody know and can tell - how to get Capture Assist in conquest mode?
Even I touch cap zone one second - I got First Capture, even if I not first who go in cap zone.

[VitriolicViolet]

why are so many of you complaining about half the players sucking so much? i havent gotten scores like these this consistently since the steam launch, my ONI-IIC-C is EATING all these lrming 3rd pving fools.

btw you dont need to complete everything every event.

Edited: itll be over soon anyway so hopefully itll balance back out, while i am getting good scores there are not many wins
