Thanks. Could you let us know which Heroes will be on sale?

[YUyahoo]

Sadly my unit just decided to change to one of the new factions, due to a 7 day "cooldown" we are blocked from participation...great timing

You can still drop FP during the 7 day cooldown.


Thanks for the event!

Yeah looking forward to that most of all. Would love a protector and a pirates bane. I doubt I will grind FP (off all things) unless its easy to get a color or 2.

Looking forward to a color/patterns sale in the future.
Might be interested in double XP
Has a war-horn sale ever been done?

Well thats awesome if its true, but I thought that was the whole point of the penalty, when did this change happen?

[Desintegrator]

Oh no - we dont wanna play a Communtiy Warfare event !

CW is dead for many years now - we need QuickPlay events !

[Meppoy]

Am I get it right? 100 games for ~2 weeks, it's 7-8 CW games per day. 7 games * 25 minutes (the game itself + waiting/loading) = at least 3 hours 15 minutes per day to get all the event rewards. Man. I'm kind of quite active player myself, but it's look a bit too much, isn't it?

P.S. Still, I'm happy about a new event incoming. And I'm also looking forward for the list of hero mechs on sale.

No participation rewards for clan players? Won't it be hard for IS players to get match score if they keep ghost dropping?

[Darky101]

Why release a half backed anouncement?
Give us the details please.

[dominikabra]

Could you please please PLEASE put some regular mechs on sale as well (preferably the ones I don't already own ), please? Did I say "please"? Just in case, PLEASE!

[D V Devnull]

So much in so little time and so few posts... I gotta catch up with this!

It won't be that much of a grind. You'll only need an average of 8 matches per day, if you put your best effort into it.

It's not as dead as you think... At least I know how to get rid of those keeping CW/FW dead.

All we have to do is get rid of those trying to keep the battlefield quiet, right? I do like "Slapstick Humor", as it's called.

Hello, Meppoy... I don't think you'll be stuck spending that long. Non-Siege rounds tend to not reach 25 minutes under most circumstances, just like how Siege mode doesn't last to 30 minutes.

Do you really think things are like that? I've been seeing the Clan side winning and riding along the meter, not the Inner Sphere side. Maybe you should be keeping a better eye on things.



And that's it for now... I'll see you all at the Event, and I'll certainly be tracking this thread as things evolve.

I said this too at the last event, the time sink requirements were daft then. It took a week to just get three of the pick a prizes! The lucky dips were more rewarding!

Plus why now does it take 2 hours for content to arrive in game after waiting for an hour already for game logs to be updated?

50% Sale on heroes (selected) - YES !!!

Ohhhhhh Yes !!!!!

[Beaching Betty]

Too bad I hate FP

[GrimmigerPetz]

As someone above already wrote, there won´t be that many matches needed to accomplish the challenge as in quickplay.

At least it´s not split with scouting again. So matches will be found. And if there are not enough clanners around we will change
factions in a few days eitherway.

Let the cbill farming begin!

[Kalleballe]

You do realize new players will only be farmed and frustrated just like all the other FP events. Those that need c-bills wont get any.

[Gwei Loong]

Why don't you organize the new players by faction. Make two different drop decks one Clan one IS then ask them to please build accordingly. If you have to run any trial mechs to fill out your drop deck your better off going Clan.

10M CBills is the upper cap. Pilots get rewards for whatever they put in. Makes sense. For a lot of pilots, not every match played will achieve the 150points. I would hate to see pilots holding back on the eject button, even though their firepower has drastically dropped, just to keep their match score up.

No penalty never prevented you from joining cw. But until new contract you get no loyalty points and have to do 10 trial matches if you go loyalist for new faction.
