Well I'm on 8 of 9. The one that's proving hardest for me is the Roughneck.

Even when there is one on the map I can't get near it. To add insult to injury I appear to be getting worse at the game, steadily doing less and less damage and suffering many losing streaks.

It's a shame the game is so randomly one-sided. There have been very few matches that 'go to the wire' it's usually a walkover for one side or the other.

That's only going to have a certain amount of lasting appeal I'm afraid.

Starting a movement: Pick up that cell!

Just pick it up. If we all do this, then the greater chances we all get to kill carriers. Help everyone out, and hopefully sooner your time will come to get the benefit!

Got a point, grab it and carry it around for all on the enemy team to possibly get that reward. Talk about community mindness LOL.

One mech bay is not worth the crap headache it is to hope to get an incursion game, and find a stupid battery carrier. This mode isn't worth the time. I'm out. PGI you did a pretty terrible job of making an event that anyone can complete. You put in a requirement that you hope the other team will actually carry batteries and stick around for even a few seconds to get shot.

Might as well, but that might be counterproductive to people who actually need to grab the batteries to bring them back to base...

Still, once I kill the battery carrier, I'll help out.

If PGI isn't willing to fix the event, then I guess it is up to us to help each other out and finish this event together. I've already completed the event so I'll be giving other players the kill they need. It's only for the best and hopefully they will pass it on and do the same for someone else.

Already tried something like that, people just laugh and call you all sort of "fun crap" if you ask for help in chat.

The rest of the team would end just rushing to kill you instead, or worst your own team would probably just team kill you before it could happen.

8/9 still need the 5 base objects destroyed. Hadn't even really been focusing on base stuff yet, just killing mechs and grabbing power pods, etc...

Got the roughneck early in the challenge, got the 'delivery failure' almost by accident as a locust tried to grab a powerpod just as I went by the spot with a NTG-B. Was looking to get into a firing position on the assault lance coming into the valley on Grim, and as I walked by the power pod pez dispenser a locust was sitting still waiting the 5 seconds to get pod. Boom. Done. Total luck. I suppose that is pretty much the only way to get that challenge is pure luck.

And, now we're back to events starting after midnight Friday night for the Asia-Pacific-Oceanic time zones.

If there was any way that you could start events eight or so hours earlier, it would really be appreciated.

According to our probability calculations, the chance of seeing Incursion mode is 1 in 20 matches.

Incursion mode isn't getting enough exposure for an 'event'. My weekend is over and I've hardly seen it. I've also noticed I only seem to get the mode when I'm running a light mech.

The drop rate to get incursion is way too low. Only getting it once every 6 times. If people are picking a certain mode the matchmaker should skew the drop percentages a little, especially when an event is involved.

Can we assume that Incursion will show up more frequently during this event?

Haven't been seeing it as an option at all. If I can't finish the event because I'm not playing enough, that's one thing. If I can't finish the event because there aren't any incursions to play, that's another.

Not seeing 1 in 6, more like 0 for 12.

- it's impossible to get final part of event - kill mech with battery in it... just impossible at all. Thanks to no one carried it anymore... Sad.
