dear devs, please try to combine those 2 parts - give us "easy" daily quest and one "hard" daily quest (like get 5 kills in one match in solo quick play queue or 10 kills in one match in solo faction play queue).

Really??!!

Am I the only one to have noticed this wording?

Eligible Game Modes (any combination):
Quick Play (Solo or Group Queue)
Faction Play (Solo or Group Queue, Invasion or Scouting)

As of the moment, there is only one queue for faction play...

Hey guys!

Thanks for the reports and feedback. We changed the Calendar appearance to be clearer and easier on the eyes with color coding each challenge rather than week.

We also fixed the typo's with the Zap! PPC's requirements and oh my god I know, Wub Wub should have been pulse lasers!!! What was I thinking?!?! Do you guys have a better sound effect to change it to? Please don't say "PEWWWWW"...

Zorch or Hummmmmmm

Perhaps too dramatic but as a send up to the originator of Mercenary Maxims (Schlock's Mercenaries)

THOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


Edit:
this might do it more justice...

Pretty sure it just means you can drop on your own or in a group and both count but i wish it meant what your implying it meant too.

[Baron Blitz Fokheimer]

Hang on...

You guys actually thought that creating unique challenge components with 24-hour completion windows was a good idea? Really?

[Deeber]

I'm pleased to see this event, in contrast to the previous all-or-nothing event, as it gives low tier players (like me) an opportunity to win at least some rewards. Thanks, PGI.

[ShooteyMcShooterson]

Great challenge. Lots of prizes, and none of the big prizes are hard to get.



Oh... The only thing I wonder about is giving away red and white with the Battlemaster, after having just given away red, white and blue in the last challenge.

80 Protected Light/Medium

80!?

Why do you do stupid **** like this PGI? Where tedious challenge completion depends on what someone else does.

That one's not actually that hard to get, it's quite easy to get 10-15 per match, just involves staying near your team mates and supporting them.

Now there's a bit of mixed bag. I might have to read this all again, but my first impression is very mixed. Plenty to do of a large variety, so that's always good. From the casual player perspective, some of these 24h challenges will just not happen, not that sure about these 3-4 day long 'weekly' challenges either.

@Lord Orion. Just run a kitfox with 3 x ams. Complete the challenge and get the score for killing the lurms.

[Tsukimi]

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.

[Ikokujin]

I dunno.... for me it looks like to keep people busy for an unlucky created Skill-Tree! Not for me guys, I´m out...

[Audacious Aubergine]

I wonder how many Nova primes we'll see during the pew pew challenge?

[ZortPointNarf]

I am loving the look of this event.
The prizes are amazing, the only potential problem I see is the Kill UAV one, I rarely see 30 UAV in a week (from both sides), let alone be able to kill that many in 4 days. I seriously doubt I will be able to achieve this one, all the others are quite achievable, even if it means I have to group up.
Thanks PGI

p.s what about the trashcan cockpit item on urbie day? Can't wait to run it

[Exbe]

Hm, I played two games in quick mode and got 400k as a reward... It should be limited once per day, isn't?

shush mate, dont tell them as long i didnt had the opportunity to "test" it myself

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..

How about next patch you change all the trial mechs from (C) versions to (S) versions, since they no longer acrue XP for new players. That'll help with the grind for them, and might encourage them to buy hero's & steam packs once they get addicted to the 30%, and then you'll also get more new players running said trials filling the queues up better during the event.
