Really it's more like 4 different events. I miss the one week with one simple board of goals/rewards.

The quality of matches just dropped by 60%.

- Need to get a total of 500 match score (2-3 matches for badies like me) for 10 out of 14 days
- Need to successfully vote for Terra Therma and get off one volley of fire for 6 out of 14 days
- Can't do Huntsman stuff
- Kill a Hunstman (Kill shot or KMDD) on 10 separate days
- Get one volley off in 15 matches per day

The kill or KMDD a Huntsman on 10/13 days bothers me.
The rest doesn't sound too bad.

The funny thing is the challenges page in the profile section ( https://mwomercs.com...type=challenges ) isn't used anymore... it's strictly the challenges page.
Oh well, I guess locality is a plus?

Looks good for the non-Huntsman owners. The grab bag/15 matches is the second week.
Huntsman owners have two extra events, one runs the whole time and the other is 5 days.
Didn't originally notice that they listed the name of each event at the beginning. There are a actually 6 different events going on at the same time...

That might be a problem for a non-weekend day.

Still has the central caldera, but looks like there are better entrances and more usable area outside of it to fight in/around.

Yah. This one wasn't thought out very well - It basically screams 'Rush, Die, Repeat.' Would have been nice if it had been something along the lines of 'Divide match score by 80, earn that many loot bags.' Would give people an incentive not to rush, and make it so people don't have to play forever to get everything.

If you've never looked at an annuity brochure, you probably should. Think bookies in a Vegas back room wearing a green visor, cigarette smoke around felt tables and chalkboards on the wall, surrounded by vintage television sets. In the middle of the table is a fat ledger opened wide, lines across the old worn yellowed pages, littered with chickenscratch etched by a not-so-sharp number twelve pencil filled with decaying lead.
Yeah.

I think there's some level of desperation. There is some retention bleeding that they are trying to mitigate, but that's not helping the level of intelligence or quality of play at all.
People will be turned off by these events over time, as there tends to be no purpose long term... so this serves at best as an intermediate distraction until whatever PGI is complete with whatever surprise projects are being done (mech trees to be announced at Mechcon, probably having done only preliminary work on it).

Pass. Will play forumwarrior instead until it's over.

Which part of the event does that relate to?
It's the grabbag portion (8-day event that includes Halloween Day).
15 matches max per day...
Why couldn't this be a timed event (max 120 grabbags total) instead of forcing a min of 3-hour grinds per day to max that out?
