Just got "Hard Boiled"!

Only did one match for the last hour to see if it works.

You do need to overheat again while override is active after first shutdown.

So it is not like it is written on the event page, it should say:

In one match, engage Override after overheating, overheat again with Override active, survive the match, achieve a Match Score of at least 100,

I didn't have that kind of bad mileage. All I needed to do was to Overheat such that I would Shutdown and take Heat Damage, Engage Override immediately after Shutdown, and then play through the rest of the match, optionally shutting down Override after the use of a Cool Shot or provision of enough time to cool my Mech down. :huh:

Nice event so far.

Been playing some matches in jumpjetted chickenleggers for teo days, now i'm back to farming XP with and mech that has the least XP earned so far.
Just need one more Kill or KMDD on an IS mech to complete all goals.

Greetings

This is my experience as well.

Now I just need to figure out which class of IS mech I need to kill for the very last thing.

Also wasting too many UAVs on loosing matches :P

There is a broken link in the announcement but he event page is active if you search for it. The problem is in the Announcement .. at least that is my consistent experience since the start of this two days ago.
Completed the challenger and enjoyed it! Thanks PGI.

Not sure if someone else got this, but it seems flawed. In description only one achievement has "survive". Just scored a match in BJA at 296, launched a drone as well. No joy, no bump in stats...

Well, it seems it is even delayed in game, not only on stats page, had to play two more games for this to kick in.

Hi there... Did you wait for the start of the Next Hour before you tried to check for updates on the Event Challenge Status? If not, then there is the answer to your dilemma. Why? Because PGI is trying to avoid pushing their servers too far, and therefore requires that you (and everyone else) be patient while their server does its' analysis work. To give you a rough idea, I usually have to wait until at least five minutes past the hour to look for any changes, or the server isn't fully able to update the information properly. However, I'm happy to wait, knowing that things will be updated. So yeah, just be willing to give some extra time before you punch that Refresh button. :D

Alphaing every enemy IS mech in my 8ML BJ-1X did let me achieve that last objective today.

Thanks everyone,
Happy easter, may the goldfish leave many Lincoln Logs in your sock drawer!

Hello again, everyone... I've completed the 2017 Easter Challenge Event here, and I'm glad PGI actually managed to make it Bug-Free. Pardon me while I go enjoy this new Decal, the (MC), those Cockpit Items, and the (C-Bills) which I've put in the effort to collect. See you all at the Next Event! ^_^

Hey PGI, I look forward to your keeping Events in a Bug-Free state and well-balanced like this one! You hit the mark perfectly this time! Make this the start of a streak that you keep up, and your community will never have a negative comment about an Event ever again! :D
