Can somebody tell me how we're suppose to do the solaris objective if no one is on Solaris??

Ask through the in game chat, usually can find some bored smuck who wants to let you murder them (or troll you and murder you instead)

Ask a friend to play solaris together.

Team play is a learned skill thats been an issue since day 1.
Early on there was several players who made simple online tutorials on how to not nascar, how to communicate, don't go leeroy jenkins on team, ect. and haven't see any of those guides referenced to newbie posts in about 2 years now. Last night a bunch of team matches and only 2 had teams communicating, some we'd say hello and try to guide but all for nothing and no doubt some of them have every chat and voip disabled in game knowing block list is a joke. And too many people just leeroy jenkins into red team, left the assaults way back (nascar'd) then back seat drive the rest of team and complain, harumph and naysay everything the active player had done 2 minutes back but not helping the player in the current situation ie Charlie legs cherry, etc.

Yeah so to answer your question directly, I couldn't be bothered to keep track of all complaints I just picked what appeared to be the last one about a lack of players when there's no events.
Hard to get new players interested when all there is on the forums is pretty minor complaints comparatively speaking.
And if you want good complaints start with the match maker in solo or team play, or how everyone on the fake "block list" is unmuted upon rejoining match and same when relogging into game to avoid players disabling every chat and VOIP!!!

If PGI fixed "block list" to keep muted then PGI's support load would be less and probably have a better chance at keeping new players.

See now we understand each other.
Honestly, VOIP is not 100% necessary but it does help, simply looking at the mini-map and using common sense would be enough for most matches. The commander UI is also a great tool no one uses, those who know how can actually lead to great results.

I've said it before and will say it again. PGI should lower the cost of mechpacks and MC, this will likely bring more people and sales would increase, 3-5 mechs does not equal to a full AAA game, also, would it really hurt that much to increase pre-order bonuses?

[Luckz]

Will there also be mech sales or just these gift ones?

To anyone doing the "Hit and Run" part --

Have you tried manually releasing your Target Lock after dropping out of sight, or at least looking away from your Target while you're behind Cover, in order to speed up the waiting period?

That is because they are disappointment scented, your too used to it to notice.

No, No, No!!! It's because MWO lacks the capability for "Smell-O-Vision"!!! Disappointment smells pretty awful, so anyone could notice it.

OK, "hit and run" rewards do not show up in-game at my end, not in the popup overlay, nor in the end of match breakdown... Anyone else?

Nope, it's absolutely fine for me. I've completed the challenge in a few matches through normal play.

Hit and run works for me. I use a Wolfhound and usually go after heavy or assault mechs. Hit them with 10+ damage and move back into cover before they can return fire.

Thank you very much for the event. The free stuff with only minimal hoop jumping was fun and appreciated.

I think my Scented Candle is defective, it doesn't seem to smell like anything. Anyone else having this issue?

Matt, what's it supposed to smell like?

There is no such decal as "Girl In A Pink Dress." There's a Red Dress, but no Pink Dress. I just checked the full list...

The decal most definitely exists. If you redeemed the rewards but it doesn't appear in your decal list, contact support.
