Those are the Roman named versions of the Olympian Gods.

Hey nice, mech bay in there. Should be fun thanks PGI.

'Juno - Queen of the Gods Win a Match and achieve a Match Score of at least 100 while playing in a Group of 2 or more' - oh I see I have to team up with someone eh? What is this foreign concept of ~team~!

Yeah...PGI, you need to do a little research. These are Roman Gods, the Gods of Greece (where the Olympics started) are different. There's a lot of overlap but yeah, you got the names all wrong.

Well, nice flexible event. You don't have to complete all the specific challenges, just 8 out of 12 to get a mech bay. Good.

It took a lot of patience to go over the skill tree (like, seriouslyPosted Image ?), but guess I was able to finish two mechs.

With the design of the challenge, I am relieved that there's the possibility of not going over other weight classes, to fully skill additional mechs.

For now, will only do that if I really feel like it, something not to happen very often...Posted Image

nope :) I'd rather have fun.
I like the event but often seems like they are TOO easy. just play normally and you'll get it. I kinda prefer the more specific goals.

Seems like a nice opportunity to test the new game balance. And thank you for letting us complete only 8 out of 12 challenges to get the mech bay. I personally will be skipping the group play challenge because I'm not in a unit anymore, and the UAV challenge because there's no way I'm paying 400,000 C-Bills for 10x UAVs to get a reward of 250,000 C-Bills Posted Image

I'm all for competitive events, but I think it's not a good idea to run a "tryhard" event right after a major balance change. Give people time to get used to their new rides Posted Image

You know you can get multiple detections with just one UAV, right?

Ah, my bad. But then, you can waste a UAV and detect nothing, right? In any case, it's spending C-Bills on consumables to get a C-Bill reward. Doesn't make much sense to me :)
