And what 7 Mechs are on your list?

Sorry... but, that's MY secret.

Anyway, I've burned 3 off that list... 4 left to contemplate...

Multiple times I've had teammates rip out my rear side torso to gimp my performance and prevent me from getting a K/KMDD instead of them. This happens with every Kill/KMDD event. but seems particularly common this event.

Hmm...that's odd. Can't say I've seen that behavior, but what I have seen is people try to body-block others in an attempt to get the K/KMDD, which has resulted several times in their torsos being blown off by already-incoming fire.

Any chance of this event being extended one more day?

I'm guessing you hit some trouble due to Real Life? You had probably better go poke either Matt Newman (most likely this guy) or Russ Bullock on Twitter, then. That's where someone else got the 50% Off Colors Sale (I think it was that one, not sure...) extended for everyone.

Heh... funny. <*sticks a 'Like' on that post*>

I wish we had the Urbie-IIC in MWO. Sadly, the odds seem against us for ever getting that, even as much as PGI has had the interest communicated to them. I guess we'll have to keep bringing that up on New Mech Release Threads.

In regard to the Event... I've finally finished, and picked my Mech. It won't be seeing the battlefield until such time as I've accrued the funds to outfit it without feeling like choking up on my (C-Bills) & (MC) Wallets.

As for Rating this Event, I've got too many personal feelings (including Abuse by the Community) affecting my ability to only take account of the Technical Aspects. There will NEVER be a Rating from me for this Event. PGI did try to set up an interesting Challenge Set, and I applaud them for that, even with the questions that it raised. However, there were too many in the Community that were unwilling to work as a Team. This caused unnecessary pain for the Entire Player Base. In my case, this caused a level of burnout that I haven't felt in quite a while.

PGI can thank their Community for the following sad news... I'm out of here. I won't bother with the PTS (by the way, it's unnecessary, don't wipe out the difficulty for the I.S. in CW/FW/FP), I won't bother further with my Mechs, I won't bother further with trying to help the Community, and all because I'm done with the Abusive Players who are unable to understand that MWO is a game where you can NEVER play as a 'One Man Army'.

(p.s.: By the way, I'll be very surprised if I ever come back here... As many times as I've been ready to give up, it was time to finally pull the trigger and let go.)

Hi, I would like to ask more experienced players to help me pick my prize.

I only recently started playing MWO after >5 years, so I don't know any of the 'Mecs. I only have a handful of them, only mediums being NOVA NVA-S(C) and Centurion CN9-AH(L).

From what I gathered on the internet HBK-IIC(C) would be a solid choice?

Thank you.

Can't go ver wrong with the Storm Crow, i'd say.

[Xezar 123]

I think best ones so far

Bushwacker
Stormcrow
Crab
Shadowcat
Shadowhawk
Trebuchet
Wolverine

Technically Centurion and Enforcer are good mechs too, but looking at their starting equipment and price, it might not be worth it.

[Rhaezor]

Obviously KINTAROOO.
