2 kills & 1 KMDD and only KMDD was accounted.
Nice event otherwise.

I can only imagine the look that's going to be on Matt Newman's and/or Tina Benoit's faces when they get into the office in the morning. It's a look I wish didn't have to happen, but somebody didn't keep the bug fixed regarding cumulative scoring of Kills & KMDD together, and I know it has been functional before. I hope they totally burn whoever messed up the code again, and extend "Phase 1" by a day if they have to post a HotFix of some kind.

Hey, I could be wrong... But, it seems like they've been shrinking more and more inside their proverbial 'turtle shell' with each Event Review that I've delivered. However, if I am indeed wrong about this conclusion that I have come to, then I severely invite PGI's Staff to respond with a reply indicating the opposite of what I've come to reason to be the case. Until then, I only have the trail of Past Events to use as a trend to draw conclusions from. Sadly, where I intend constructive thought to help PGI improve Events, they could just as easily take it as some kind of 'nasty insult' to which they would respond with worse unkindness. Heck, haven't you noticed that Old Events in this 'new system' are being set up to disappear, instead of remaining capable of being easily referenced? I think that's a clear sign right there of trying to obscure the past by just sweeping it under the rug.

I've made 5 kills but only 1 was counted, assists and victory were counted, but kills not

[Zh0u]

Its really a pain having to use trial mechs to do all those KMDDs only, I hope they can reduce it.

[Stink Bug]

How do these kill type count bugs keep happening every event? If they can’t fix them they shouldn’t put them in events.

Did you mean "should NOT put"???

Wow... 7 days to get 100 KMDDs in 8 different mechs... I thought of those events as an incentive to play, not to encourage exceptional grind... Could you please adjust those values to something people with a life can realistically achieve?

And btw... I really hate those kill/KMDD "challenges"... Can't you think of something that actually encourages working as a team not totally wrecking it?

[Audacious Aubergine]

So uh, maybe a sale on the Hot Rod camo might be nice too...?

[Vargo Nash]

I also think that kill were not counted on my Catapult. Got 3 and none was counted. Maybe update is not like written every minute but maybe every hour???

That goes for every mech. No kills are being counted whatsoever... you need to get KMDDs.

[Vargo Nash]

Hmm, but it is written "Kill or KMDD", so....I think they have to fix it.

[McGosy]

i`m playing the Catapult atm. The Event page is only counting my KMDDs; but not my kills and kmdds:(....having fun with it anyways..greetings

This guy is always serious. You'd think he's just trolling, but I think he's genuinely serious about all his posts.

Pretty much... 1645 posts (1646 after this one)... I think I've only cracked a joke maybe once at most. But, I would be looking at a really long post history to have to check on that one.

Sam issues as everyone else with KMDD not Kill/KMDD. Pretty much as expected, honestly. I don't understand why this bug keeps popping up. Wasn't it working correctly at one point? I'd swear it was. Is someone doing a bit of careless Copypasta Whatever. It's not the end of the world.

Worst thing about KMDD is that it incentivises players to be reckless and less team orientated. Fighting for those KMDDs gets brutal. Last night alone, I witnessed 2 "accidental" team kills as players were jockeying to finish off that last few enemies. One indiscriminate air strike and one person just not caring that a teammate was blocking their entire left side's weapons.

Anyway, I do want to say, "Thanks, PGI!" for making this event very friendly to less affluent players. If not for the KMDD issue, I'd say be happy to say that it's new player friendly too.

P.S. Y'all saw there was a round 2 with the other 8 trial mechs, right? Hopefully the bug will be fixed before then.

P.P.S. It's better than Dazzle, but... Block Camo? Really?
