I still can't get how the numbers of completed daily challanges are working. Does it indicate my participation or what? Now I have 1 but I've completed 3. Today I'll finish XP challenge and then tomorrow I won't get it completed because everything was acomplished today?

some of the challenges will be very hard to get: killing 10 lights or mediums as heavy/assaults? in a game where those robots are quite unpopular allready and probably will be played even less at this very day? i know allready that i will skip that one in my spiders..

I see great opportunities to squirrel-lure eager heavy and assault pilots to untimely deaths.

The Faction Participation being set at 2 is nice and all if the matchmaker can find you matches fast enough that you don't spend all your available playtime waiting for the matches.

24 hours to do 2 Invasion Faction play matches when you spend 30+ minutes waiting to try to find one match plus do the other tasks for the day when you are on a limited window of time to play each day especially during a weekday. Seems like the average player trying to do this challenge will spend most of the time sitting around doing nothing while waiting still.

I guess it might be a timing thing. With more participation, I got my 2 games in before work in less than an hour. We rolled the Clans in 15 minutes in the first match.

Nice Event PGI

And to all the people complaining here...
I know, some feel the urge to bit** about everything and more, but really? "I want to choose my grand prize" You get a mech as a gift, and you are bragging, because "youre a Clanner" and IS-Players benefit more from the prize! Imagine throwing a party, you pay for the beer and your friends then complain about the beer because its "not their brand". Guess what, those people wont get invited to parties in the future. Take the free mech (and Mechbay!) or leave it, but stfu, sorry.
And yes, its a lot of daily challenges, but hey, who forces you to play? Set priorities, but its not PGI´s fault that you play all day and ignore your girlfriend,ffs.

So, again: Cool new event-style, PGI

Im wondering how you come up with an Event over month at a time of a year where everybody should do other stuff than playing pc games! This should be something for the wintertime.

Not playing since the lovely patch anyway.

[pacifica812]

Thanx for the event PGI!!!

I really love the fact that I'm writting those words a lot lately (or at least think about them ).

Thanx for the free stuff, I won't complain about getting duplicate colours or mechs, as long as the hype is kept going

You got time to play, play. You don't ... tough luck, I have a family too, so if I can squeeze some time into this event it'll be that much rewarding.

... and after all, there's always gonna be a next event soon, for those interested

For those complaining about the battlemaster as a prize, and would rather get a clan mech...

Didn't we just have an event where the main prize was a linebacker?

Not in front of my comp, but i bet that LB prime and this BLR are almost the same cost, too...


Edit:

Whoops my bad, their prices aren't even REMOTELY close.

Linebacker is almost twice as expensive. cXL + Endo + FF + DHS will do that... >.<

PGI how about a Hero sale for this heroic event? I got some spare MC.

would not bet on it. clan stuff is much more expensive, mostly because of the cXL engines

the web bug for the daily has been fixed.

Sweet! I just noticed that and was going to come mention it in this thread, but I see it's already been brought up

There was a bug with the display that should now be fixed. If you played both of the last two days (for those of us in the US, Tuesday night until Wednesday night, and Wednesday night up until later today) you should see 2 completed.

Is it that hard to make a correct link to the Summer Blast Event ingame?

When i click on the Summer Blast Window ingame it sends me to the Clan Hero Page from where I have to search the forum for the Summer Blast Event, to find this threat and then click on the link in the first comment to finally find the event page so i can check my status.

What´s up PGI, make a big event and then let no player know what its all about? Sometimes I really think you either are just hiring monkeys or you don´t like your player community or you have some admins who think it´s hilarious to tease the players.

The problem with Canada's climate (well, one of many) is that it does get plenty hot here, but not often enough for everywhere to have air conditioning. So when it does go above 30C/90F there is no escape.

And suggesting that PGI is desperate to get the F2P crowd playing more in order to make the paying crowd happy seems like backwards logic. [And are you really suggesting that PGI really intends to troll its paying players and frustrate them enough to buy all those items? I refuse to believe any company could think that is a good idea]

Cough! Games Workshop! Cough!

I like this event too.
But the "UAV destruction challenge" shooting 30 UAVs in 4 days is a bit too much. When 12 men from a team heading for this it will be quite hard to acomplish.

Keep in mind it's at the same time as the other UAV event so theoretically there will be ample opportunity to shoot UAV's. Besides the reward for that one is UAV's essentially you get a free UAV for shooting someone one down. Personally I'm not to bothered if I even attempt that one at all.

[Commander A9]

Nice event.

Should be a rewarding cakewalk.

[Innocent]

For the Oh Canada! challenge you have to complete 5 of the week 4 challenges. I will have a problem with this. It appears I will have already completed 2 of the available challenges which will not allow me to complete them in week 4.

It would suck if I missed the big reward and am punished because I played the game before week 4.
