Dear PGI, stop being dumb. You need a event-que (See: Fortnite event modes, IE 50 vs 50 or whatever flavor of the week it is) if your going to have events that really on specific maps or modes. Iv done like twenty games tonight, solaris came up four times two of those times it was trolled and outvoted. And lemme tell you getting shoved into games with a bunch of crabby people that have been trying to do the same thing all night isnt fun.

I resemble that comment LOL!!!

A separate event queue we could opt into would make a lot of sense.
It would also allow some very specific event rules to be applied without affecting regular game play.

Eg.
Solaris City - Urbanmechs only.

Actually, going to put something up in the events area about this.

Alright, that makes 4 time I got disconnected tonight, needed to reboot twice. Ether Microsoft screwed up bad with their last Windows update or someone really needs to run a diagnostic on the servers.

[Hershey Barnone]

I played 12 games the other night. Solaris City came up 4 matches straight, skipped one, then another 2 in a row.

I was (un?)lucky to play with great teams on all of them, and just can't get my hands on that duct tape...

Is there a reward for actually getting to play Solaris city. Only seen it twice since the patch.

Yes, there is. I'm highly disturbed that you missed it. Go to...

...and look at the first TWO parts of the Event Challenge Set. Like... seriously... HOW THE HELL DID YOU MISS THOSE?!?!?

Sounds to me like you need to run the MWO Repair Tool. Upon Launch, please go to the Options and Uncheck the first 5 Checkbox items, leaving the last two checked. Then press "OK" and Uncheck the Checkbox on the initial dialogue, followed by clicking the "Start Scan" button. This will result in a Scan that enables you to do a Non-Damaging Repair, and dodge losing any/all MWO Profile Data. Hopefully, this finds something wrong and enables you to repair it.

Should this fail to find anything wrong, your only recourse may be to give up. (Micro$oft NEVER helps anyone... known fact.) Unless you're running your Graphics settings way too high, in which case you should really lower those a little bit. You might be pushing your computer far too hard since the last MWO Monthly Game Update Patch.

- the map looks like a city from the first "Duke Nukem", but constantly freezes and lags.
- in some places it is impossible to drive to assault/heavy. Do you want nobody to choose these classes in the game?

So because you can't use 4 total paths with a few specific mechs, (the wide ones) you think the map is unplayable with those mechs? Use a slightly different route instead of trying to be a potato.

It's not like you can take an assault up Mt.Tryhard in Alpine without hill climb nodes or jumpjets... And there are similar places in every map.

Good rewards. I like it, thanks PGI.
I like the new map too. Reminds of me Vegas.

[Mighty Spike]

in 3days i had 3 times the map.. Iam sick of this damn stupid event

[Buenaventura]

You have 10 more days to complete this little event.
TEN

Don't chose any map but Solaris City, this way you save up your map vote multiplier for those times it really counts.

Actually, you have to chose to get a multiplier... Gain multipliers by voting for less popular maps, like Terra Therma and Caustic Valley.

It is too bad we will need an inordinate amount of time to complete a relatively straight forward challenge.

Indeed... I can't seem to lose on the map, so having completed all other challenges, I'm still waiting for my losing teams to show up on this map instead of all the others.

[Juan Cabrillo]

50000 CBills in total for this event... stingy money eaters...

[Bwah Ha Ha]

And there's some clipping problems if you run into building.

[Violator]

The map is garbage. Even with such an event running people simply refuse to pick this map. It's THAT BAD.

IF it ever appears on the map list that is. Because i've seen it only twice in 3 days.

[Mochyn Pupur]

Did exceptionally well with the uncommon/rare supply box - 1000CBills ! . . . . really?

[Buenaventura]

Had one "ultra rare" supply box so far. The items in that were 1 rare item, the rest was below that in rarity.

[Spare Parts Bin]

I love this map, do not think if I can get back to this map I will not have any problem losing based on past performance by my team mates.
