All the warhorns are meh, except the Bagpipe...

Wish there was at least a select your prize when you reach 100.

So other than for it's not very attractive... but again it's free.

Looks like its going to be mwo all weekend :).
I also would like a pick a prize at the of this event. Id like to pick a mech or paint scheme. Like buccaneers for my Grasshopers or Warhammers. Free colors, camos and war horns are what I will be after.
But thanks for all the events, I for one love having active events running all the time.

PGI, you don't always have to give out c-bills and MC. I will do missions for experience and maybe free skill points? For example play a heavy, make 2000 experience, receive 5 free skill points.

Could we increase the max number of bags you can get to...Oh I don't know...let it run throughout the entire event? No cap? No limit? Pretty please with sugar on top? Posted Image

*edit* Could we please stop getting MC consumables in these bags, unless we can be given the option to sell them?

Am I doing something wrong, I have played several missions where I scored at least 100 and I dont see any loot bags. Am I missing something?

They did that only ONCE ( consumables) and we were all very surprised because we thought they finally understood why we were asking for this but then they reverted back to the consumables. Shame!

Why are you so stingy with GXP? I opened the first bags and got lots of 200 GXP content --> The time is over where i could buy a module with GXP, so 200 GXP is worth nothing (like your champion mechs --> let them produce only GXP instead of XP then they get at least some sense in the actual gameset). The smallest amount of GXP should be 800 (for one single skill node) in your bags.
Yes it's free, but things like that give me always the feeling you don't know what you're doing with your own game.

oh MC consumables! and what do I do with this?
You hope that I want to use it, but then forget it and start spending MC instead of C-bills?

You don't have to click the checkmark to automatically refill the consumable. And based on the 50 loot bags I've already opened I figure you'll gain several hundred MC during this event so if you do check the box and are a bit forgetful you'll probably remember well before you use up the MC you won during this event.

You are a very interesting young man!
I have 4 coolshots (and I'm sure there will be more and more after I open these 200 boxes), you ask me to make 1000 clicks every time after each game to equip them again manually? hehe.. Posted Image
And Yes, I bought 4k MC in addition to received in the events, OK?
MC consumables is one of the most useless things in this game

keep them all until the day they get refunded because of some elemental game change.
The last time that happened they brought me about 6k mc, no **** dude!

Edit: (read about refund because of skill tree change if you dont believe)

I think he was pointing out is it's your own fault if you use the MC consumables and leave "auto-refill" on.

course, i don't even use Cool shots on any mech period... mostly because i actually make viable builds and don't "Alphawarrior"

HEADS UP!
Switching the Consumables in the event from MC consumables to C-Bill Consumables.
You may still see the words MC Consumable displayed on the web but you should receive C_Bill Consumables.
