I find the in game event browser to be very hard to read. Small font and using less than half the screen. Make it bigger

Ok, if I'm reading this right...

Clans have 3 planets to attack this phase...

IS has 5 planets to attack this phase...

What gives for this mismatch, Russ?



And how the hell is Vulcan under attack in Clan Wolf backfield when it's entirely surrounded by Jade Falcon and Ghost Bear? Is this another one of those BS secret wormholes?

upcoming ballistics challenges - 1 of each or all of each?
events page is not clear

[Commander A9]

Wait a minute...challenges are Quickplay only? Are you [censored] kidding me!?

So now I have to make a choice given my work schedule: drop with my team in Faction Warfare, or waste time with a Quickplay challenge.

Real smart, PGI! Why the hell can't we have damage-based challenges apply to both Quickplay and Faction Warfare? Who cares when you get the damage as long as you get it!?

[I cant want to]

challenge runs for 7 days

if it is only 1 from each category then that is not a big time investment. with the right loadout and a good game, you could get more than 1 in a match


if it is all from each category, that is a fair slog for a couple of million cbills and some cockpit bling

Just a question: why do the old clan warhorns cost 1000 mc and the never clan warhorns "only" 750 mc, any reason?

[James Argent]

They put it on QP so that people can get both sets of prizes without having to be lucky enough for their contract to expire halfway through the week. And loyalists. And they have had other damage-tracking events that couldn't be tracked in FW's dropdeck environment, so that's probably the reason FW isn't included.

Glad to see some level of sanity and dedication in game balancing.

However, NO MAPS NO MONEY.

Seriously, if you want me to spend more money create more completely new maps. Otherwise I have enough MC and Premium Time to last me years.

Maps aren't due until November

the big problem of heavy gauss is that the slot number is too large. therefore impossible to install in almost all the mechs, even on assaults with standard engine .

10 slot instead of 11 would be better and more mechs could use it


even KingCrabe 100t can not use heavy gauss , because it has only 10 slot available per arm

Very sad to see the Dragon 1C nerfed so hard; I'd stopped taking it as often after the nerf to LPL, it was a real fun mech before then. Still kind of surprised, there was a time just post-skill tree release when a lot of people started bringing it, but that didn't really last, and now I'd be surprised if I see if at all.

Well the old ones are animated, they zoom in and out when they activate, while the new ones only play the sound, I bet this is their reasoning.

iirc its the same with the LBX20 which for some reason takes up more slots than the ac20. for years, the LBX10 was lighter and slotwise smaller than its AC counterpart, but for some reason that "rule" did not apply to the new mech-shotties.

LMGs were OP as hell they needed to be nerfed, they should not be able to strip the armor off an undamaged Assault in seconds like they do, even if taken in multipes. They are anti-infantry weapons.

They're anti-mech weapons until such time as infantry are running around in the game.

*Still doesn't put back the feature to scroll up/down in chat that was in one patch and never seen again.

actually, that 'feature' was never actually removed, just the default key bindings were changed when they started allowing more consumables ... and you just have to rebind the keys to something ....

I've just read through this post and almost without except all the heat seems to be coming from Clanners moaning about the nerfing of their mechs/weapons and claims for strong IS mechs to get nerfed......

Anyone would think that you all feel you have a God given right to stomp over IS every match?

The Assassin doesn't seem to me to be any more unbalanced than the Cheetah which has been overperforming since it was released. Surely by now you've realised that there will always be some mechs that perform better than others? Clans have theirs and IS have theirs.

The one fact with the CUAC10 having the same heat as the IS version that hasn't been raised is that Clan DHS take up much less space than IS equivalents so clanners can pack in a lot more.

Just saying.......

First : I'm very happy (feel free to take a look at the loyal leader board)
what I meant on that short post about my happiness is that :
if you play bad you will die faster if its IS or clan mech
if its king crab ,LTC, Kdk, GHR , Atlas .. everything die
and if you new or average player that go solo you die even quicker .

but the assassin because of bad hit box settings - 75% that he will not die or it will take longer to kill if you don't shoot the legs.. (even when solo fight vs 3 enemies at the same time)
so old and new players use the assassin left and right torso glitch\bad hit box for their advantage, and because of that many average players drop with at least - 2 or even 3 assassins in same drop deck

again I'm just happy that all the IS players that was running around with full deck of assassins thinks they ninjas are back to normal where they should be : crying at the forum.


Just saying.......

Is anyone else having an issue where clicking on the events button in game brings up the box, but it's empty? I see no events currently running even though we know there are events running.

Same here

Edit: If I alt-tab out of the client and back in, the event generally shows.
