So other faction loyalists got screwed again. How about making all units mercs by default?

There is no longer any penalty to Loyalty for quitting a Faction. Switch to Davion or Kurita for the week, then rejoin Steiner anytime you like Kurbeks.

• the odds of being able to get what you need to complete the task is diminished too heavily.

While I can sympathise with feelings about the short notice, the fact that I would consider myself of only average skill and yet I still managed to get all but one of the challenges completed in the first match (only 3 out of 15 components left to get in second match) I think that the level is not too hard for most to achieve regardless of mode. 300 MC in one match is a very nice prize thanks .

so you can't do this as a clanner?

Yep, need to be Kurita or Davion and play the special FP mode.

[Mad Ox]

Boo there goes 1200 MC's down the drain. Oh well needed a break from events anyway

[NocturnalBeast]

Nice, I might actually log on for this one. I missed IS vs IS. Of course I will have to side with the Fed Suns and take out Dracs.

Alright, it looks like I get to come down hard on PGI, even though I'm going to try to attack this Event's Challenges. Among the starting stack of problems with this Event...

Nobody actually cares for your reviews of the events you know right? It took me 2 matches to complete the day 1 challenges of the event. Actually my second match was enough on its own... 7 killing blows, 8 kmdd, 3 solo kill, 15 components, 2427 damage, 36 kill assists. I didn't actually need the first match at all.

Is anybody else running into problems trying to change their dropdeck from Clan to IS?

I've switched our unit's contract to Kurita, but in the dropdeck selection screen I can only pick Clan Mechs. Restarting the game didn't help.

Video of the problem:



EDIT:

And I've figured it out. I had to click on the Clear button first.

Confusing UI is confusing...

So, its event for dead game mode with limitations when loyalists will not participate? Such a great idea!

It's a special event; designed to draw new folk into FW and what do you go and do - shove the scouting slider all the way over to skew the experience - ffs, think for a change. We actually want new players and seeing them be hunted down by experienced crews is tantamount to killing the mode off - PGI are willing to improve the experience - the experienced FW players seem to want to destroy it.

Why would you want to rejoin a unit that doesn't switch over for events? It's either dead at the top and nobody can switch or it doesn't align with your interest in completing FP events.

[Alexandros]

There should be a penalty for switching factions and mercenaries should have lesser rewards from such events. Loyalty units need to shine at some point. *Waits on his Marik office for PGI to throw a bone at Marik loyalists at some point*. The event is nice but do cross fights along all factions THE SAME TIME.

[Kalleballe]

Rewards for day 2 and 3 is the same.

Fortunately the "get 1 victory" part can be completed in scouting.

We have recently had QP only events, Solaris only events, we needed a FP only event. Sadly player population is not high enough to make all events completeable in all modes.

That wasn't quite what I was talking about, and sorry for the room for misinterpretation. I was actually referring to the specific requirements of Skirmish/Assault/Conquest/Siege Game Modes within the larger Faction Warfare Game Type. PGI is being way beyond too specific with the criteria again inside of Faction Warfare, and that's what I'm docking the Review Rating over because I can see the problems this introduces with the Event through requiring the Randomizer to cough up the right Game Mode inside of Faction Warfare's structuring. Simply put, RNG should NEVER have any control over whether you can complete an Event Challenge or not. Having an Event for Faction Warfare is a GOOD thing, but requiring a specific Game Mode within the Faction Warfare Game Type is horribly BAD.

Given your Location of "Strana Mechty" as of when I'm typing this, it's no wonder your mentality is so horribly negative. Get your mind out of the Clanner mindset, which is always too harsh and oppressive on people. Instead of penalizing (as in, Nerfing) Mercenaries and Faction Switching, there should be Big Bonuses (as in, BUFFING) for going Loyalist, like it used to be back in Faction Warfare's "Beta 2" Phase!

So, basically this is just for davion and kurita, that already played 10 probation matches?
