Actually, the only questionable one out of those three is the "100 Components Destroyed", directly due to an In-Game Bug that can cause those to not register. Everyone should know by now that Teamwork is a thing, and people should learn how to use it and not be too greedy! There's also the Issue with the Tuesday Monthly Update to MWO, which warrants adding a minimum of 3 Extra Hours to the Event Timer. If the game will be down temporarily, why cost people time that they couldn't play? :huh:

For the moment, I would start the Event off with an...

8.5/10

...with Recommendation To PGI that they...
  • push out the Event Timer's Ending Point by 3 Hours, in order to end at 8 PM PDT on Sept.19th, 2018, because of the Monthly Update Patch
  • only ask for "60 Components Destroyed" due directly to that In-Game Bug preventing some from registering
...and other than that, I think I need to head for the battlefields. I'm rather happy that they're allowing ALL Game Modes again with This Event! So, see you all out there! B)

Hmm
so
do i need to "Enemy detect" using the pin wheel during game to register UAV detection
or
Is it a case of just putting up my own UAV and detecting enemies?

Please help

ciao

Just lit up enemies with your own UAVs.

Maybe a bit more c-bills for the uav challenge would be nice since you'll be spending them on the uav's :P

Yeah, and if you do it right you get immediatly rewarded by boni for UAV detection, UAV locked damage, Counter ECM and you see where back armor needs a rubbing. UAVs tend to pay for themselves as it is.

If you are afraid to loose more c-bills than earning, simply leave that part out.

It means pick a fast light, run to the enemies, launch UVA and suicide.

Thanks Matt, another good event.

One little thing: I checked the event browser (in game and out) just a few hours ago, and there was no 'upcoming event' listed. So I actually logged off and didn't play for the past few hours when I could have been.

It would help me schedule my private life to ensure I make time for MWO - which would help drive up my and others' participation - if you gave us a day's notice or something via the upcoming event features.

But again, thanks.

Is anyone else having reward redemption issues? I got the missiles one in about 10 minutes and redeemed from the event page but the hanging item hasn't shown up so I don't know if it registered properly. It says it's been redeemed both on the site and in-game so ???

At first I read the Detect as Destroy 50 UAV's and I was like, dude, I don't even see 50 in a month, and that includes the ones I pop :)

This should be a fun one.

Thanks Matt
