To usher in the Year of the Pig?

[El Bandito]

Boar's Head for the event's grand prize, anyone?

If you haven't noticed, we have hit weekly events with some overlapping. Chances of an event for anything are very high.

Indicates population was nearing a tipping point and events are so frequent to retain players. MW5 preorder bonuses utility is absolutely dependant on there actually being a population to play with.

Unless population has a.large uptick, I would anticipate increasingly frequent events. Good while it lasts.

I second this motion! Love the Chinese lanterns and other such cockpit goodies.

A decal that looks like the face of one of those Lion Dance costumes that I can place on the faces of my 'Mechs.

I wouldn’t mind a surprise release of the Razorback and Warthog to celebrate the year of the pig

May rise with the release of MW5 as people finish the campaigns and turn to multiplayer.
Same like Call of Duty for example.

The Steam Solaris hero pack is 33% off on Steam. Not sure if that's because of the Steam Lunar Sale (Just got Mechanicus, whee!) or something else. Guess I should have checked that befor posting but whatevs.

Always wanted a boarshead. A light 400 or 375 engine sounds like fun to me.

Unless PGI gets off its rear end and starts adding maps at a rate of 1 or 2 a month, there isn't going to any upticks. I love this game but I have to admit I can't really stand playing it more than 1-2 months at a time without taking a break cause it just gets so damn old playing the same 4 maps over and over.

Heya, I chatted with Matt regarding this, he mentioned we didn't have any piggie-related items in MWO to make a themed event for Lunar New Year, unlike last year we had plenty of dog themed items for the year of the dog to make a cool Lunar New Year celebration event, however I reminded him we do have the Boar's Head!

So maybe he'll add a little something to the current event he's creating for you guys, since you're inquiring!
