Impressive! Most impressive!

I have always thought PGI did a great job with events and giveaways. Even the ones members of the community would complain about. My stance was always "They are giving away free stuff and they don't have too, how awesome!".
But this just takes the cake!!!!

Also I would recommend highly that the word gets spread to people outside the MWO community. This is a bargain/deal that I don't think any of us will see again, and it can really jump start a new players progress. I for one am spreading the word to those I know who don't play the game on this one!

[Aramuside]

I do believe I'll have to come back for this.

[Savorin]

New stuff is nice , FREE new stuff is even better . Thank you PGI.

The programmer in me needs to clarify...

Is it, log in and play ONLY 1 match? Or, log in and play ATLEAST one match?

I havent been this excited for christmas since I was a kid! Thanks PGI!

Do the new heroes have names yet?

If not, then can the forums name the new mechs?

This is probably the idea, to really advertise the game for others to play. "One day try it out, and you get a ton of items including 2 Free mechs if you stay a lot longer."

I'm actually tempted to advertise to my guild friends that I chat a lot with on Discord, if they want to give the game a go, just for atleast one day

Could just have someone you trust use your account for a day to play one game. Make a one-day password and change it back the day after.

I'm not saying it's a good option, just an option, BTW.

@ Matt Newman ---

Thanks to a problem-causing cold that my family managed to give me, I've got to ask... Is there any chance that we can have the "3 Days of Premium Time" from this Awesome Holiday Bonus added as 'Banked' Premium Time after playing that Single Match? If not, could it be tied into the New Events System so that we're allowed up to a Two Week Window to manually trigger it or effectively reject/lose what currently appears to be 'Active' Premium Time? It seems like the Holidays are always riddled with colds of some kind, and this one caused me 4.5 hours of delay from when I sat down to when I could get myself to log in again on the MWO Website.

Just wanted to post my thanks for such an awesome end-of-year gift. Looking forward to see what the future brings to Mechwarrior.

*Claps* (Not sarcastically)

Well done PGI! Now this is how you do marketing and increase your Net Promoter Score. I am so damn proud of you right now.
I already told my friends who used to play to download it and play just 1 match on the 27th.

Thank you, thank you for the work you've been doing to turn things around!

This will be especially handy for newer players seeding into the game.

I think both don't really make a difference...just login, play 1 match, and you get the rewards.

Yes!!! 100% agreed. Probably by far the best Christmas reward I had in ANY game I played, considering how easy it is to obtain. Other games will probably require much more grinding.

Hot Damn, something to cheer me up after my holidays were ruined by psychotic relatives and shoulder surgery! I do not care if I have to crawl to be there! Sounds like great fun and to boot 2 free mechs! Cannot beat that deal. Count me in!
