Wasn't this going to be double xp weekend?

I have no objection to double XP weekends. Great time to just grind some new or neglected mechs.

None. Cause when mechs came in action These Nations did Not exist anymore. Maybe some themed units like waco Rangers, snords irregulars, camachos caballeros and so on that feel a connection with the Cowboy Lifestyle May Do it.

Has anyone had problems getting the rewards? I've completed all of the challenges and haven't gotten the colors nor the flag...

I realize that this is an international community, but my hat is off to PGI for honoring America's veterans. Most of all, I wish to honor the memory of all of those who gave their all so that their nation could be free.

Before I got sick, I used to be a writer. This is my little contribution:

Our Lady of Freedom

Philip Damon



[color=#1C1E21]

Born in conflict this nation was,
A hope for the world to see.
A fight for freedom from tyranny’s jaws,
By a people who must be free.

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

A nation to be ruled by a people as one,
No matter what the cost.
So off we sent our daughters and sons,
That this freedom would not be lost.

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

Freedom called, the nations bled,
As evil played its hand.
So America took this world and led
The charge on foreign sand.

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

From France to England to the Philippines,
Our nation rose as one.
An army of boys still in their teens,
Sacrificed all ‘til freedom was won.

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

Terror struck our heart one day,
And mothers learned to weep.
Then American’s rose with one voice to say,
“Our freedom we will keep!”

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

Through wars and strife our flag yet stands,
Its stars and stripes revealed.
Not on our knees nor on our hands
Will this nation ever yield!

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

Remember today the cost that was paid,
The price for freedoms held dear.
Many bodies in graves were laid,
So that our citizens would never fear.

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

Tyrants and rulers hide in terror,
As America raises her fists.
This lady is our standard-bearer
Flag held by unbending wrists.

[/color][/center][color=#1C1E21]

Through wars and strife our flag yet stands,
Its stars and stripes revealed.
Not on our knees nor on our hands
Will this nation ever yield!

[/color][/center]

Restart your clients. I've noticed chills and MC inject after a match, but items and colours seem to require a client restart to inject.

No need to restart, just relog and it should be there.

The Event seems to be broken. No progress on my account. Could that be because two Events ended and it's bugged again?

fix faction ....... stop playing events, fix the **** ................... omg 1Day 23 hours Conquest
start playing you own game solo and with small groups undercover THX


Those who are responsible for this borked CW, have a special place in hell, where they are forced to play 365 days Incursion with pugs vs coordinated Units.


Good thing is. No matter who from PGI should read this, does not get what hard punishment this is, because they have barely played MWO and probably never played CW.

Dear US guys,

as peace proposal i also want to show respect for your fallen soldiers.

It is always hard to loose someone and nobody should die through force in a perfect world.

I respect your belief in freedom for your people and that so many are willing to give their lifes for a certain purpose.

Still, i also want to emphasize that we all have the chance in this international game and international section of the forum also to remember the Fallen of other people, other countries, other families.

Unfortunately there are no such events for other nations, so my wish is that you have in mind that we all have the responsibility to remember that where is war, there is suffering. Not only on one side.

I've extended the event 48 hours as i got some requests through support tickets!
Hopefully everyone can get time to grab the prizes now.

RE: Colors
Unfortunately there isn't a solution if people already have the color.
This is one of the reasons I rarely use them as a reward item.
They are much better suited as a pick a prize item.

If you're the first team member to get a radar lock on an enemy mech, and then your teammates then attack the target (might be tied to missiles specifically) while you have them locked, that's a spotting assist.

Thank you again, PGI!! (and Matt Newman). As a retired military veteran, I enjoyed this campaign, which gave me a chance to play tactics, and remember friends I have lost, both in the service of my country, and in this gaming community. The comradery I have found here helps to fill the gaps that exist. Keep on, and I will keep searching for my sunset.

I already have the white color but I still got 2 new colors that I likely would not have bought so I say more color rewards please. For those like me who got the White in the previous event maybe you can refund us the 0 MC we spent. Thanks for the events and for remembering the fallen. 07 to all who have served.
