Hard Boiled isn't working for me either.

3 times now(over the course of 3 hours, I did one try per hour block); I've overheated, then turned on override, got over 100 match score, my team won and I survived the match.

Wish I knew why it's working for some people, but not others like me.

Maybe you need to take some overheating internals damage ?

if that's the case, guess it would be nice to have it in the qualifying notes for that accomplishment


that does bring the question, . . . What exactly needs to happen ?

I'm sure it's just a delay showing up as completed, but if there is more to it, then what is written, then what is it ?

I have a complaint, not sure if it's happened with anyone else. But ive completed the Hard Boiled challenge, twice and it has not given me to reward.. Kind frustrating.

Never mind, if i would have read previous posts i would have seen people are having the same issue lol.

Just an update for anyone having the Hard Boiled challenge issue.



This worked. I played using an Artic Cheetah. laser spamming right at match start. Overheating, immediate override, and then shut override off.

wait .. So we need to turn over ride off ???? after we turn it on ?

Hi all

They surely are working on the HARBOILED thing, as i'd unlock it yesterday, win the prize, and have the surprise to find it locked back this morning.... (and, i have bought fire warnning as first decal... flamers u know ).

So, we surely just have to wait a few
By the way, ty PGI 4 this event.

Hey i know this is ridiculous but would be nice if we could see what mech has been killed and what is left to kill out of the clan or IS mech challenge...

PS. when does the event update cause normally it says it on the page.
im guessing its every hour but would be good to have it on there for new players that haven't played events before...

Problem loading page? Hmm.... Maybe it's on my end, was working fine earlier.

[Appogee]

On the event page, Oxide (JR7-O) is listed as a Jump Jet capable Mech.

However, you can't put Jump Jets on an Oxide

Isn't there an easy way to track our progress through events? There should be a way to track it in-game and in real-time, like the achievement system. It would make our lives SO much easier and a lot more user-friendly.

And then it would lead to a server crash, which happened with Previous Events. That's why they absolutely avoid Real-Time Updates, otherwise they risk losing everyone's progress. This is massively different than earning an 'Achievements Roster Item', as the updating to be done for 'Achievements Roster Items' only affects one user's profile. These 'Personal Challenge Events', on the other hand, cause the MWO Back-End Systems to do a massive aggregate injection of items to Player Accounts, which is no laughing matter due to requiring that time is heavily provided to allow the matches to be analyzed and properly qualified before any action is taken as a result of them.

All I know is that:

an hourly update of the challenge progress is not as userfriendly as an 15 minute update of the challenge progress.

I'm 3/4 on both clan and innersphere mech class killing.... I have no idea which size mech to kill to complete these, kind of frustrating.

[anfadern]

Thnx and best wishes for the Easter

I would put Money on Clan lights (rarest for me)

And yeah its annoying not being able to tell, but at least it gets us playing a bit longer =p

Diggin the easter surprise

[SQW]

Would be nice if we know which mech kill we still need for the two Easter surprise categories.

[suffocater]

All finished. Thx for the free stuff PGI!

[Rekkon]

A friend and I were just joking that that Easter surprise standing items should melt if you overheat.

[Marquis De Lafayette]

Hardboiled not working for me either...should have had it 3 times, but nothing. I love events, but PGI please either clarify the terms of what we need to do or make sure our completion of hardboiled challenge registers.
