I think PGI must add to game client "Mechapedia" with all info about game, weapons, modules, heat generation, tips and trics, game modes, achievments, all in-match rewards, game mechanics etc.

What part of ULTRA LAZY you don't understand? (It's a rhetorical question)

Confirmed... Starting in dropship invalidates challenge. Had a game where no one walked behind me and I didn't zoom... Still failed.

I am just glad that i believed those people saying PGI was trolling, and haven´t spent more than three or so matches chasing the elusive "freebie". At this state of potato i´d even wager getting 2 kills instead of 1 disqualifies you aswell...

Hm. Russ said in his twitter that they've reduced the number of matches needed to complete the "Flea" 3PV challenge from 3 to 1. I've just managed to pull off one match (God that was frustrating), but it says "1 out of 3" on my tournament page. Is it still 3 matches?

Oh crap. Re-logged into the game, and immediately got 3 days of premium time - one day earlier than I needed... So it's actually one match, just as the twitter says. Too bad they didn't update it on the tournament page. Now I've lost one day of premium time just when I needed it most

If you or others had bothered to READ thru the earlier pages, you'd see PGI already chimed and and said that in the thread, but that they couldn't change the text of the tourney page for whatever reason while it was running.

Hope they extend the event

That was 10-15 pages ago. PGI said "we aren't going to update the event page" for some reason. I can't believe people all have the time to dig for these nuggets... it is rather unrealistic to expect people to read all 15 pages at once.

The requirements for "the flea" (third person view challenge) has been reduced to 1 match.
Pilots who have completed it once will get this reward now.

Unfortunately, The text on the event page will not be changed to reflect this until Tuesday.

Keep in mind results can take time to show up. (up to 15 minutes)

We have confirmed that all these challenges do work (people have earned them).
If we discover that here was an unknown issue blocking these rewards all participant with at least 11 matches will receive the reward for the bugged challenge.

They don't need to extend the junky event... they need to realized its was so jacked up that they should grant folks rewards and maybe even something extra for those that really went out of their way to suffer through how jacked up it was and complete as much as they have.

I am still at one kill as well, but as I have stated though out this entire thread.. its truly unrealistic as you cant force the other team into the capping things for it. The UAV event one isn't so bad as quite a number of them get tossed into the sky -- you just have to be mindful and have the right range to reach one before your teammates take it. Heck as of late I am just calling them out for other but also mainly because I don't want them up there. If I have to kill it myself I will, but I give others the chance for the event.

Why is it defensive kills aren't awarded for stopping the enemy from blowing up a generator in Faction Warfare? You know...'defending' your base?

That and some of us still need defensive kills, people. Vote Conquest and Assault, not Skirmish!

This is Territorial Control all over again! They take our individual choice of game type and they gave it to the mobs!

Before you make events like this please fix broken code. Such as 3rd person interfering with sound fx and missle targeting. Or how about the forced first person if you go to a wall making the match not count.

[Commander A9]

This Defensive Kill crap is ridiculous!

We thought that we'd get it by killing a dude trying to cap our base in Assault, so we committed to defense. Well, we scored a kill when they tried capping our base...and we still didn't get it! Not only that, we got accused of "non-participation" by our own team for staying defensive!

PGI! This contest is motivating cancerous play and exchanges between players! What the hell is wrong with you people!?

[ManOfAthens]

Do you need to win to get a cap assist?

+1 - I need capture assists to get that shield decal. And the few times I've been in Conquest, it didn't trigger or whatever.

3 Defensive Kills = 110k = one usual match with bad playing.
MANY Matches and brain blowing instead of one usual bad match?
I even don't will to start farming 3 DefKills for 110k.
For 110MC - maybe.
For Mechbay - yes.

I know, but some of us go for 100% completion. Call me a completionist-I'm not insulted.

But this particular challenge is negatively affecting my gameplay. It's turning me defensive and pulling me off the engagement line hoping I ambush the enemy when he attempts to capture. This costs my team a shooter, makes me feel like I'm sandbagging, and typically doesn't result in a defensive kill.

It's also causing players to turn on each other on their own team. :/

This is awful!

I have completed all challenges except DefKills, but I always choose Assault or Conquest and just play for fun to help people to get Capture Assists.
