Not receiving awards for 80+ matches unless on the winning side - working as intended?


Agreed. Winning conditions state only a score to achieve. I only get the loot bag upon a victory.

I get where you're coming from, valid point. Although, is it even possible to equip a coolshot 9+9 or improved UAV without having the appropriate pilot skills unlocked first?

Ah! Excellent insight. I hadn't thought of that. Most likely the reason :)

Yeah, ran a lot of scouting missions last night, only two bags. Something is up with this

Nice event...

But we all have no time because of the Andromeda trial.

So maybe see you next week.

I hit the magic mech on pull number 38 of the events. now I'm running it. Not bad.


It makes for a pretty decent 5xLPL boat. The trick is to add a small laser to each torso to push those LPL up to the *good* hardpoints... i can't remember what order to add the lasers but they have to be added to the torsi in a certain order to accomplish this...

Odd that some people are not receiving loot bags... is anything showing from those matches? Does it even give you "this match does not qualify" message?

Also, please make sure you are not confusing your damage score with match score... you will need to do way more than 50/80 damage to get a 50/80 match score...

Nah the point is not to use the small lasers, they just push the LPLs up to the high mounts, making them *much* more sttategically placed and useful.

Using flamers would be fine, i guess, but you lose a DHS...

...and I've had matches myself that were at least 80 Match Score (50 for Scouting), but were NOT a Victory, and they DID show up on my roster as qualifying for a Loot Bag. I'm thinking PGI might have a bug to fix here, but I'm wondering why the bug ever showed up in the first place. Further, I would like to know why these bugs only ever affect some players and not others. :wacko:

Very irritating as those of us who preordered months ago have to wait for Thursday in the UK...

Unless they're very heavily delayed quite a few of mine aren't showing in the normal queue.

I live in hope that suddenly a lot of bags appear. ;)

Unlucky: Flamer

Are u kidding me ?

Or maybe unlucky, because the flamer wil be so better with his new heat behavior plus his old visual effect ? (My urbie still crying after his flaming hidding screen !! )

Remember: it isn't really much of a "Grand Prize" if everybody ends up getting it. Everyone has the same chances, though.

I disagree, there's nothing about the word 'grand' that means 'exclusive' or 'limited.' It just means it's the best prize out of all of the ones offered.

That being said, there's no implied guarantee that everyone will get one, but there are probably sufficient chances to put the odds in everyone's favor if they get enough qualifying drops. That's pretty good event design.
