Announcement tomorrow

Tukayyid! YEAH BABY!

If I remember correctly, Tukayyid is only like THE BIGGEST event in MWO, the ONLY time when this community livens up, and the ONLY time when honor and glory matter more than cbills!

(Not to mention it usually has mechs and great other stuff for prizes).

I just hope my unit will be able to field multiple 12-mans like we used to!

Tukayyid was the most fun I've ever had in MWO.. it was 24/7 drops for Clan Wolf honor and bloodright, and if I remember correctly, BOTH Tukayyid events were WON BY THE CLANS.

Clan Brothers!

Time to show the freebirth the strength of the Children of Kerensky!

One last time! For honor, for glory, for our birthright, for TERRA!

Adapt, survive, thrive!

AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!

Looking forward to it. Last time was only one weekend for 50 CW matches, I really hope they extend the timeframe this time.

Personally, I hope the event lasts a whole week, and they give us some nice mechs..

Altho, It would have been nice to get the announcement earlier, so we could organize and get into the right side factions..

I just hope it doesn't turn into the worst grind imaginable.

What i really hope is they don't do things like "play x matches of invasion" or "x matches of conquest" in CW. That would be really, really terrible.

Time to go Clan and farm some LPs. Bound to have faster queue, at least, compared to IS.

*edit* MS still has 4 day contract left. Bah, whatever.

Well taking into consideration that FW is now MUCH different than it was during the last Tukayyid event, yeah, it will be different..

Back then, spawn camping was a legitimate strategy.. now, not so much.

Back then, O-Gen rushing was standard. Now... not so much.

Back then, the modes were Attack and Counter attack. Now, we have Skirmish, Assault, Conquest and Siedge (I wish they add Incursion to replace Assault)

Back then, the king od the hill was the Timberwolf, and the Thunderbolt. Who will reign supreme now? The Kodiak KDK-3? The Marauder IIC? The Warhammer?

Back then, much was different..

Now..

Who knows?

Clan Wolf honor


No single piece of "Honor" was found to be had by a single trashcan born in the entire event... dishonor your supposed code & disgrace everything that you are supposedly fighting for. Have tech superiority and fight like dezegra... THEN CROW ABOUT IT???

so pathetic

As my friend said in SWOL, it's time to get are salt licking windows ready...

On topic about the event, really I feel like they shoulda done Operation Bulldog unless they saving up for the Civil War update, but I'll ask my unit commander to switch over to Wolf for the event.

Who won last time (2015)? I cannot find the main event page with the official results.
According to these stats, it seems it was a very close call:

Clans and it was Wolf in 1st place, 2nd Falcons, 3rd Jaguars, and last Bears

The top three units if I recall
1) MS
2) ???
3)SWOL/ or some other Merc unit...

Been awhile since I remember that one.

We had the Warhammer in the last Tukayyid, you are really reaching there if that's the only IS mech that Clan players consider a challenge. It's good but it wasn't the king of the hill then either. Both Tukayyids were rediculous challenges, if anything we should commend PGI for making Clanner mechs more powerful while cursing them for not giving the Inner Sphere mechs a shot at making up inferiority in tech with numbers. A few extra tonnes in our drop decks doesn't even come close to doing it right. Balance in this game is a wreck, another Tukayyid would be a waste of time for an event, we have had two already with no significant changes to game balance. Civil War tech will help a little, the new skill tree sure won't.

Wait a sec...Tuk-3?

Um, so, don't you need folks playing CW for that?
4.1 has only been in place for what 4 months and already the CW forums have commentary from the regulars referring to increasing wait times and lack of population. So is Tuk-3 PGI's big plan to get people interested in CW again?

Ok, consider the last two attempts at such an effort. Did it work? No.
Now, consider the relative populations playing both times as compared to now.

What am I missing here?

How about instead of another Tukyidd, you instead do what you said you were going to do back in January and focus your efforts at giving your game the "frequent weekend events" focused on Clan v Clan and IS v IS as promised...hmm?
