Hey guys!
After reviewing your feedback regarding this event, we've made a quick update to the page and cut down some of the requirements to half the amount as well as made little detail adjustments here and there to some of the challenges.
We rather not extend or delay anything so a reduction to the difficulty was the best solution for this! Unfortunately we are not able to increase the rates of game modes at this time.

I wish you all luck in accomplishing the challenge and have a great weekend!


What the changes are:

I've Got the Power: Retrieve 10 5 Fuel Cells in the Incursion Game Mode (while piloting a Light or Medium 'Mech)

Powered Up: Deliver 10 5 Fuel Cells in the Incursion Game Mode (while piloting a Light or Medium 'Mech)

Rock 'Em: Destroy(Kill or KMDD) 5 2 Enemy Light or Medium 'Mechs in the Incursion Game Mode (while piloting a Heavy or Assault 'Mech)

Sock 'Em: Destroy(Kill or KMDD) 5 3 Enemy Heavy or Assault 'Mechs in the Incursion Game Mode (while piloting a Heavy or Assault 'Mech)

All Your Base: Destroy 10 5 Enemy Base Elements (Mobile Field Bases, Air Control Tower, Radar Tower or Jamming Tower)

Raid Complete: Play 10 5 Incursion Matches, each with a minimum Match Score of 100

Achieve 1 Kill or KMDD against an Enemy Roughneck 'Mech while in Incursion in any Quick Play Game Mode

So a hundred people have complained they haven't bumped up the chance of coming up. Has anyone actually done something about it like flooded Russ' twitter account?

Forums don't work. I've got the ball rolling but just keep spamming em please.

Russ deletes complaints that would make the game better unless your saying how great the latest mech pak is its dangerous to tweet him.

[AureliusDean]

I'm thinking maybe the modes have discrete servers, and since everyone on is picking it every time, it kind of falls off the que? I feel bad for PGI... and my wife is freaking because I played 7 games today already, and I haven't even seen the incursion mode. The rewards are great, but at this rate impossible to achieve.

Don't worrry guys, PGI will come good for it. Has anyone said anything officially? EDIT: HA PGI posted at the same time I asked this. Thank you Tina.

Which does not deal with the actual problem of incursion not showing up.

It's probably easier to tinker with % of a map appearing than it is to tinker with % of game mode, when that game mode is dependent upon which maps appear.

We can only do so for maps unfortunately, not the modes yet.

I have an issue, I had enough kills to completely the "Rock'em" and "Sock'em" challenges with the new values [I was at 3 light/medium kills, 4 assault/heavy]. However, I have not received either of the two rewards. [the "2 Leopard DropShip Standing Items and 125,000 C-Bills" and "2 Clan Sidearm Standing Items and 125,000 C-Bills"


While the "First Forey" and "Necessary Roughness" were redeemed correctly.


Edit :

Received them, must have taken a bit longer due to the requirement change. o7

Rather pitiful really. Do you people not player your own game? Reducing the requirements only acts as a band aid to the plethora of issues this event has brought up. For one the inability you people have to influence your own game is laughable. Other much lager games either influences their map/game mode rotations or simply put it in it's own special section where people can chose to play it. Then we get to the team work, now contrary to what some people think this game doesn't have as much team work as they think in most quick play matches.

All you guys and gals have done is made an event that lays bare the deep rooted issues your game has. I do hope the development team looks at the issues that have sprung up due to this event and endeavours not make them again next time.

[L1f3H4ck]

Aw man, and I was almost through the event with the old requirements

[BSK]

9 matches, incursion wasn't even part of the choices once ..

[Weeny Machine]

The worst 2 things in this event:

1. Being at RNG's mercy to even be able to participate in the event
2. (and that's because of 1.) kill a mech carrying a fuel cell. Good luck with that


Edit: I just give up. 16 matches, 2 of them incursion. My bad luck gave me a bunch of potatoes in those 2 matches where 6-7 were barely able to break 100 damage.

Something to consider going forward that is not just an issue with this event is switching the selection screen so that the Mode is selected first and then the map choices appear. With some of the modes not available on all the maps, the issue of some modes never appearing or some maps never appearing has become much more of an issue than it was in the past. If we could select the mode first then we could raise the likelihood of playing the mode we want and seeing the maps that play with that mode.

It would also be a great quality of life feature for some of the FPS arcade shooter only crowd that only want to play team attrition if there was a Skirmish only box that could be checked. Yes, it would increase wait times for everyone somewhat for matches but those that did not want to wait could leave the box unchecked and play whatever comes up and they should have shorter waits.

Yes, I know it is like adding a bucket but we are talking QP here and population is not quite as big an issue here is it is on FP.

[shadowcat67]

2 hours of playing and no incursion to even vote for.

[AureliusDean]

Uh, what maps are Incursion exclusively available on? That would be pretty handy info!
