Problem in Trick or Treat Event!

Info says 15 bags/day and the first table shows 10/15, but at the bottom it states 10/10 and I only have 10 bags to open.

Clarification please!

@Iain Sumner: You can get max 15 / day, you have gotten 10 so far... and opened all 10, too. Once you get your next one, you will be at 11/15 and 10/11 before you open it. I hope that helped.

[Todd Kuuf]

note, I have only done 7 of 15 so far, and only have opened 5 of 7, in this image

might look redundant, having the 2 different counts showing.

EDITED out info that was guessing, and didn't want to cause any panic for something that possible not true, no rumors

Thanks! ERescue coming to rescue me from confusion!

Worst event of the year so far, as far as I am concerned. First, there's a challenge that requires you to play the most hated map on my list for 6 days. Then there's another six-day long challenge that involves hunting an almost extinct species of mechs with 11 other players on your team gunning for the same target. And finally, you have to grind 15 matches per day for a chance to reach into a bag filled with useless crap. Maybe I'm just an ungrateful SOB who doesn't appreciate free stuff... But so far I'm totally disappointed. Or maybe I'm just burnt out and should take a break from MWO...

@JaidenHaze: There are multiple events, but...
Trick or Treat Event:

Starts: Oct 24th 5:01:00 PM (PDT) / Oct 25th 12:01:00 AM (UTC)
Ends: Nov 1st 4:59:00 PM (PDT) / Nov 1st 11:59:00 PM (UTC)

So that one has barely started.

Honestly, if you aren't boating lasers, Terra Therma isn't to bad.
So far, from 8 bags I have gotten 120 MC.

[Piith]

all I have used is lasers a srm's in Terra Therma, I had no more issues there then any other map.

I only have limited time to play, got to finally win a vote for the first time today. So far I like it. the terrain is awesome. would like to play there again instead of watching someone else get it, and have to watch over their shoulder .
I have the worse luck.

You are burnt out. Just play the game like you usually do and take whatever free stuff the event happens to give you. The only goal I have chased is the Terra Therma map thing but I actually really like the new map. And it is so different from the old TT that I do consider it a 'new" map.

[Dorci]

Yeah, very RANDOM generator... just the usual thing, as always in every lootbag event...

I think this has more to do with the fact that there wasn't a single challenge during this event where both the challenge itself and the prizes would be enjoyable. The Hunt the Huntsman challenge had really nice prizes, and the reward for Terra Therma Redux was also OK, but I literally hated every second of playing them. So I clenched my teeth and did my best to get rid of those two event components during the first six days, so that I could move on to the nicest part of the event - playing my games normally and opening a Helloween present for each match I played... only to find out that every time I reached inside a loot bag, I had to go to the bathroom afterwards to wash the sh*t off my hands. I guess I got spoiled by all the cool events we had earlier this year, like the Faction Play ones which I enjoyed greatly - playing with my buddies, taking planets, earning faction loyalty ranks, generally having fun, and grabbing a bunch of nice rewards while I was at it. Is it too much to ask to have an event that wouldn't fit the definition of "either the challenge itself sucks, or the prizes suck"?

/Yeah, yeah, I know. Burnt out, should stop ranting and find something better to do /

Hey all,

As of approx 2PM PDT today (about 7 minutes ago) we set the Event to provide earned Rewards upon each hour, rather than at the conclusion of the Event. The Leaderboard reward will still be provided upon the conclusion of that portion, however.

I got some, but not all the earned rewards:
3 supply cache, 3x50MC and the warhorn, the 3x50MC and warhorn are correct, but the "hunt the hunstman" no (and I finished "yesterday", my yesterday) mising the cbills, 100mc, 8xconsumables, 1 supply cache and 4 keys)

Looks like they were redeemed after the initial set of items, but I'm seeing those missing items in your redemption list now.

get some sleep, or what ever the reason you need to go to bed for

Nah I want to know if i have got my 15 or not.

[Frostvectron]

Gamelog delay is ridiculous.

[WVAnonymous]

I think I'm all "evented" out. I may play some over the next week, but playing every day for 15 or 20 days in a row has burned me out.
