Also, would it really kill PGI to put up the timezone for USA Eastern Standard Time? Not everyone who plays the game lives on the West Coast...

GMT would be nice since its not effected by daylight savings (im not in gmt im in +10 +11 depending on time of year, interesting we get Berling time over GMT, is battletech that much more popular in Germany than UK ?

Berlin time? I only see PDT and UTC times, Germany has UTC +1:00 in winter and UTC +2:00 in summer.
Should be easy to find your timezones UTC modifier.

And disregarding a few seconds, UTC IS GMT.

[Appogee]

Wow.

I don't like to be critical of giveaways, but compared to prior Leaderboards, those prizes are crap.

People bought 3-packs (and more) of those Mechs, but the most they can win is a camo, a standing item and 1M CBills...?

So does the personal challenge include Faction Play? The Leadership boards are all Solo/Group Queue but what about Personal Challenge as it does not list anything?

Come on, you are all old hats at this. We do not want to ASSUME, as we know what that means...

I am looking forward to achieve this personal challenges in CW.

Since the website does not mention any particular mode so it MUST be for ALL modes INCLUDING CW/FW/FP.

You guys must be on vacation or something, cose' you've become sloppy.

I like that there's an event, but the challenge names are the worst sort of puns I've ever seen, plus, you guys simply forgot to mention which modes are eligible..

Just... sloppy..

I guess its only in quick play?

Yay, no faction play this weekend! /s

Hmmm... Five people, all with the same concern? Make me number six. Let's hope PGI fixes their page quickly and tells us which modes are actually eligible. Frankly, with the way this Event is designed, allowing those in Faction Warfare to do it right along with those in Quick Play seems totally suitable to me. It might even keep Faction Warfare up and running, which would be a first in a while on MWO, all by leaving choice of game mode up to the Player Base.

Now, as for me, I'll see if I can't raise hell during this Event. I just picked up something during the "War Chest" Event, and I think I'll bring it out during this one. Well... Maybe.

[Mystere]

Yay! We have another leaderboard event. It's always the best tIme to play MWO with my HOTAS, rudder pedals, and iPads.

I also apologize in advance to whomever I will end up dropping with.

Have fun!

[Grayson Sortek]

Nice event... Unfortunate that not everyone will be able to participate, but still nice event.

Hey, you know what would be a good idea? Making conditions like this a part of a daily challenge that stacks a maximum of 3 like in HOTS so that people can complete them whenever their lives give them time to do so.

[Doctor Dinosaur]

Should be possible to show the LOCAL start time of the event. Server downtime notification manages to do so.

Best regards

[The Unstoppable Puggernaut]

Wow another event. I am actually glad this one seems pretty short so I am all in !

Kick out some free PT PGI. Personally I don't need it as I seem to have a few months of it running, but I am sure others will appreciate it.

[The Boneshaman]

wish these people can figure out how to get the page to refresh at least every 15 min. this one hour is stupid.

[shameless]

crappy event. it's for the Civil War mechs, not the actual Civil War event. I'd actually care if it was the latter.

[Commander A9]

:/ So it doesn't apply to Faction Warfare?

Once again...LLLAAAAMMMMEEEE!!!!

I thought PGI was trying to get more people into Faction Warfare?

For the personal challenge has any body else had trouble with the counters? I'm stuck on 15 kill assists for heavy despite doing much much more in the game, did at least 20 assists in the previous hour but it's not updated?

Ah, thats what you mean. I was talking about the event page itself, which only lists PDT and UTC. This clock page isn't handily linked on the event page, is it?

But I agree that the clock page could be expanded with some more time zones.

When PGI used to do that, it caused crashes and loss of data. Their server backend simply can't handle that speed of updates. Please have some patience, because you're not the only one disappointed with bugs creeping up.

PGI has blown something with the Event. I'm also having issues with counters not being where they should be. It has to be a bug in their tallying functions in the server backend.

[Archer Bowman]

Hey, what gives? Twenty to thirty percent of my assists are not showing up on the event page.

[Kinski Orlawisch]

He stops counting the assists when the kills are done.

[Mikayshen]

My progression hasn't updated in over 2 1/2 hours now, even refreshing the page does nothing. I'm going to go out on a limb and speculate that there's some kind of problem, hmm?
