The IS Jenner is not a chickenwalker.

There is not any oversight. The I.S. Jenner has front-bent knees, while the Clan Jenner IIC has rear-bent joints. Try checking both out in the Testing Grounds. You'll find the I.S. Jenner legs move like a human, while the Clan Jenner IIC legs move like a chicken. Therefore, the I.S. Jenner does not qualify as a so-called 'Chicken Walker'. :huh:

Everyone is flipping out about which mech counts toward the challenge, i'm over here saying wow those are some cheap cbill prizes. Normally its 1 million cbills, we are getting 400k,600k or 800k cbills .... you can get that in a single good match. Weak.

There's also one prize which involves using at least 10 UAVs so the C-Bill amount of 800,000 is more like 350,000.

The IIC's legs are on backwards. The IS Jenner isn't a chicken walker.

Hold on do u guys know we only get 400k cbills for that now cause u spend 400k cbills on UAV's in this...


Thats a 100% return investment!

Or if you prefer, use up those reward mc uavs you usually don't load for fear of auto-spending mc... turns those typically unused uavs into cbills!

#maths 2017


But yeah, never seen an event under 3 mil cbills in rewards, this ones 2.2 +secrets.

And events are usually 300mc total no mc last 2 events /cry .

But hey on the positive side. Its a pretty damned quick event and for the ocd completionist me thats great means ill spend more time doing more productive things over the weekend.

How quick it should be to complete also might explain thr reduced amount of cbills rewards.

Any event is better than no event. So lets try and stay positive. Ty pgi.

I tried my Cicada 3F (L) today with 2xLPL and 2xML with 2x JJs. It works! I will be using it to hit two birds with the same stone.

Have a great time, mechwarriors and see you in the battlefield.

The rewards are C-bills + an MC item, not just C-bills alone. It's fine.

Oh well since you say so. No it is not fine. ~300 mc, ~3 million cbills is way better than a paltry sum of cbills and cockpit items. I'm not enthused over the event. When people are not enthused they do not play, which is the whole point of an event.

Progress page not updating for anybody else?

(I know it is only updates hourly, not seeing any progress after over two hours with several eligible matches)

Can't help but think that the "egg hunt" should have had some supply cache keys as a reward...I mean, maybe it should be just the supply caches since those are more like the actual eggs, but where's the fun in that? Easter egg hunts involve actually finding something neat...not that UAV discoveries aren't mildly interesting and fit the theme, but I just don't think they're "neat".

I like events, not complaining about this one, and will enjoy playing this one...but it'd be more fun combined with "opening an egg".
