Nice event, nice rewards.

Sure I'm having major problems getting solo kills but I won't complain, no event should be too trivial so it won't be worth doing.

It took me 141 assists and 23 kills to get 10 solo kills in qp, now i am working on a flamer-only cheetah to help others get theirs

[LordFatman]

solo kills are stupid when you let people kill them self they should get 2 hr or more Penalty when an event is going on for more then 1 Suicide a day

I only did the qp side of it bc I mainly drop solo, but Ive already got all the challenges for QP done, so I too shall join you, only I'm running a 'Beefier' flamer build. Ya'll know what it is, 100,000 cbills you know what it is.

Pls change the Solo Kill requirement to allow KMDD. Please. Many games are devolving into solo 1v1 brawls to get that solo kill or quit if failing to do so.

[BrunoSSace]

Did all the missions but the solo kill one is kinda lame, i known kmd is broken. Please fix it. Thanks for a nice simple event.

I stopped last night with 8 solo kills and after 16 games today I'm at...8 solo kills still. I'm wondering if something is either wrong with tracking or if maybe, just maybe, solo kills was a bad idea to do.

Yea. It was a bad idea. PGI should've gone with Savior Kills and KMDD. At least those would've been easier to get.

How is KMDD broken?

[Shaolghoul]

why are some players showing 10000 cbills and 50 mc, and other players are showing 1000000, and 500 mc, for same reqs, but no tournament pack?

[James Argent]

It's ten individual 50 MC packs redeemed at the same time...the total is still 500 MC either way. Not like they don't already have a 500 MC pack for supply caches, but for some reason events use these multiple pack redeems.

[Shaolghoul]

ok thanks for clarifying

[Kali Rinpoche]

Is there no redeem loot confirmation box or is everything delivered at immediately at redeem?

Walker, Matt said KMDD is broken as tourney stat.

[Rodrigo Martinez]

It's understantable that 500 gold shouldn't be given for just 5-10 matches. But the solo kills are not the good idea at all. There is no teamplay in solo queue and the solo kill challenge wrecks what little remains of the teamplay. No problem to get this by scouting, this mode is naturally developed to remind about gladiators fights. But speaking about quickplays it's naturally disaster.

Usually I don't piss off from killsteals or chassing a cripple but after completeng this challenge I feel myself dirtied by all emotions associated with it. I would like to see something among such lines as amount of damage or match score. These requirements will get people to fun gameplay with any mech type.

[Wuffel]

Quickplay:

Kill Assists: 114
Kill Shots: 23
Solo Kills: 10

...

So, yeah, apart from the requirement of kill shots and solo kills creating a toxic atmosphere, the numbers of the requirements seem to be off, by a lot.
I got most of my solo kills by using fast mediums YOLOing into other mech's asses like a Kevin Spacey Mech and killing them. I then overheated and got my Netflix series canceled/mech killed.

So, with a smarter and less insane Approach, the KA and KS numbers would be even higher.

Edit: Only a few did I actively try to block team mates so I could get of the kill shot for my solo kill.

Well, I still don't get that KMDD is said to be broken YET it is part of the solo kill (meaning it has to register!).

[D V Devnull]

This Event is burning me out worse... People won't communicate, they've gone too selfish, and I get killed because nobody cares anymore about their team, no matter how I'm positioned. I'm sorry, but this Event is in danger of a severe Rating Loss.

Update for Wuffel's faction Play stats:

KA: 77
KS: 16
Solo Yolo: 10

Gonna get the 4 KK bills tomorrow I guess

[D V Devnull]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaannnddd all the Heavy/Assault Mechs won't move up even when they're being provided a Triple AMS Umbrella on a Medium Mech, instead being scared like tiny little Light Mechs. That's it, the MWO Community has finally shattered, and so has this Event's Review Rating. It's down to...

5.0/10

...and is risking being no longer viewed objectively. Frankly, I'm royally on the edge of posting some rather dismal thoughts as well.
