How about adding less Bags but increase the reward? So people have to put some effort into it to get the cool stuff. 100 DMG is a joke, like 1 Assault alpha strike. I would even go further and give no credits or xp if dmg stays below 200.

Like:
5x 100-DMG Bags
5x 200-DMG Bags
......
5x 1000-DMG Bags


It's 100 match score, not damage...

FYI - We switched the Consumables in the event from MC consumables to C-Bill Consumables. (as of 4:35 PM 6/21/2018)
You may still see the words MC Consumable displayed on the web but you should receive C-Bill Consumables.


Well, it didn't work, because I'm still getting MC Consumables in game and according to the web page.

Aaaaaand, a full day after they announced they'd changed it from MC consumables to CBill consumables, I'm still getting MC consumables as loot bag rewards...

Thanks for switching to CBill consumables!! Now I'll actually use them. :) There's no point to them, now that MC and CBill versions are the same. And after we got refunded for the ones we had left, I swore off wasting them in the off chance hat ever happens again. :)

Seems running AMS is a nice way to boost your match score, just wish they rewarded you with CB as well.

so no 100/100 pick a prize....... lost chance for people to want to play the game there, also, interesting to see that both faction play and solaris didnt get a "specific" section of bags to earn.........

also since no one from the brown sea has said it yet, ill preemt it for them:
"LOWER THE MATCH SCORE TO 10 SO WE CAN GET THEM FOR FREEE REEEEEEEEEEE"

Wow... You just love to complain, don't you? Get off your soapbox, as it's nauseating to see. For starters, PGI finally got something right with these Loot Bag Events. Quite a while ago, people were clamoring for the Loot Bags to NOT be limited by MWO's different game modes anymore. Just look back through older Loot Bag Event threads, and anything even talking about the subject. It's finally happened, and I'll be damned if anyone's going to mess that up to the point of losing it for everyone! :angry:

Also, 10 Match Score? Excuse me? No... Just NO. People should have to be able to put in a minimal effort, and 100 Match Score is a pretty good identifier of having done that. It would be pretty poor if someone could just launch 100 matches and get all their Loot Bags from the ~20 Base Match Score while AFK, which is a thorough violation of the Event Rules. Worse, people would just get the Loot Bags and then leave the MatchMaking Queues empty. That would create a situation that other players simply should not have where they would fail to get a Match to play in the first place, thus being auto-denied their Loot Bag chances. I might be mad if they pumped the requirement for each Loot Bag to 150 or more, but I think that PGI's Event-Handling Staff have it in the right place with asking for ONLY a mere 100 Match Score. -_-

The 2nd part about brown sea and 10 match score was blatantly obvious sarcasm DV.



DONT DO WHAT I DID AND GRIND 65 GAMES AND 38 GAMES (2 ACCOUNTS) AND THEN REALISE THAT ON THE 30TH JUne TO 5TH JULY THERES GOING TO BE 2 LOOT BAGS AVAILABLE PER GAME, SO THERES NO POINT IN GRIDING MORE THAN 50 GAMES (per account) NOW Posted Image Posted Image

so 12 games to go b4 30th shouldnt be too hard =p

Nice! Will it be the same for all future similar events?

We tried to bring that discussion up after you had the CB version event when you switched back to MC. We wanted to know why, like if CB was a mitake or if it didn't went as you expected or whatever and we never heard back. I'm just too lazy to find the thread but it's nice to see CB consumables are back now.

Thanks for reading, listening and switching!


What? I don't understand at all what you mean, my native language is french so that may explain why I don't catch the meaning.

Is it possible to make faction play (not scouting) matches give 2 lootbags per match given they typically take longer than a normal quickplay?
You did it here
https://mwomercs.com...t=201803luckyfp
1 bag for 50 score, another for 100.

Thanks!

Yeah... I complained about this literally the post before yours and no one else appears to be noticing it either.

Tons of people saying "thanks" to the devs saying they changed it, but are those players actually checking their consumables in game to verify that the change was made?

Or, is it just broken for you and I? If it's just us, why? What's so special about our accounts that we're still getting MC Consumables instead of CBill Consumables?

I don't want them, won't use them, and I can't sell them, and they said they'd be changed, so... here I am, whining about PGI's game that I'm attached to for some reason, as usual.

Is anyone else still getting MC Consumables from the bags?

I have to say that this is a pretty good event.
Lootbags are always cool and i got what i wanted, some random stuff including Warhorns.

I also have to admit, that i didnt even think about some missing "Pick a Prize" until i read it here.
Of course pick a prize is awesome but not really necessary.
The 25 bonus Lootbags for Tournament Supporters are already generous.

Same. Two days in, after PGI claimed to have changed the consumables from MC to CBill versions, and I'm still getting MC Consumables. It makes me not want to redeem any of the loot bags in the event that they'll get wasted on being MC consumables.

Its 40,000 cbills for a consumable your missing out on for a 25 mc consumable you will never use. And maybe one day we might get refunded unused mc consumables again. Im sure its a everyone provlem. I havent looked coz i dont care about 40000 cbills. And you wont get a reply to the issue for at least another 30 ish hours if ever so just leave it you dont need to keep reposting the issue we know.
