all of them.

When you say all, you mean all that are currently available for MC?

This is going to be insanely difficult Just did my first match - 2.2k damage, 5 kills, a bunch of assists, victory, and that got me a match score of 338. So assuming I can recreate that level of performance in each and every match and earn an average of 300 points per match, that's 43 matches to get a total score of 12,800. At 30-40 minutes per match (including wating times), that's 22-28 hours, and this is the best case scenario. Realistically, with all potential bad matches and losses, it's probably going to be closer to 40-50 hours. What the hell were you guys smoking? I love the idea of this event, and I love the prizes, but I'm seriously considering skipping it. People have lives outside of MWO, you know...

I'm confused. Why are the prices for heroes so different? The Warrant is 1000 MC more than the Reaver??

yup

Like many others have said, glad to have pick-a-prize and super glad we FINALLY get faction rewards for faction play!

[Danny Lafleur]

Thanks a lot for another FP Event!
I'm just wondering if you forgot to add the items and decals of the new factions to pick or if this is intended.

Really, you'll be getting things for free while having fun anyway (hopefully) and all you do is complaining that maybe you can't get all the things for free?

[Winther]

As I am now switching to a unit that focuses on Faction games, I think this event is great! I must however ask our friends at PGI if they would consider adding the Nova Cat and Steel Adder decals to the 3,200 level reward? I am sure all of us new or soon-to-be loyalists to these newly available clans would enjoy having the same options available to the other clans and houses.

Color choices are pretty MEH for people who own the faction mech Packs.

Yes, it's quite easy to get the first three items (6 matches assuming an average match score of 267) and becomes exponentially harder as you go on. If you don't care about the pattern and colour you'll need 12 matches at a 267 match score. And it's all free stuff - you don't need to get them, it's just a goal to work towards.

I like realistic goals and challenges This one looks a bit unrealistic to me. But we'll see how it works out.

And as for "having fun" - you seriously think anyone is having fun playing with a 25-ton handicap?

No scouting?

[Commander A9]

Oh good, it's based on match point. Based on my math, should take around 40-50 matches to get the good stuff.

Hell, yeah. And the prizes are actually pretty damn sexy.

Let's do this!

[Nema Nabojiv]

You do realize new players will only be farmed and frustrated just like all the other FP events. Those that need c-bills wont get any.

I was excited to see this event and I foolishly compared it to the last event that just wrapped up thinking oh the score was easy to get for that event won't be to hard. I WAS WRONG. I played 5 so far as IS and haven't even earned above 150 once yet (and these matches take FOREVER queuing and playing out).

[Sleepyboy14]

Seems interesting, better go and use my best battlemech for this event. *puts on truckers hat*.

Also Paul senpai, notice me!!

Thank you for the Heroes sale. It looks like I will be picking up a Summoner hero and an additional Huntsman hero.

Just a hint for the admins, the Redline hero mech of the Linebacker that is on sale is accessible via the heavy tab but doesn't show up in the hero tab in the shop.

New players learning how to swim in MWO should NOT be learning in the deep end.

Only easy if you're in a unit farming pugs and winning every match with premium time. Solo pugging easy to only get 300k/match (no premium time).

Maybe join a Group or a Unit if your going to play in the Unit/Group queue?

Don't like be clubbed a s a seal, then don't play as one.
