Well, congrats I guess :D

And happy hunting everyone. Going to get out there and do some myself as well.

Happy Birthday Bombadil!!

The event looks fun.. Hopefully I get to kill some of you..

That free MW5 steam key seems like something that would be a nice way to get my wife to co-op with me, since she refuses to buy (or let me buy for her) another copy of MW5 for herself..

I'm gonna shamelessly ask for a way to get one of those :D

Happy Birthday, Mr. Daeron Katz / Bombadil... I hope nothing goes sour on you. :)


Out of curiosity, will there be a set of Event Trackers on the side with items to earn this time? Many of us generally don't have any slight shred of luck with the MatchMaker at all, and therefore get automatically shut out of these Streamer & Developer Hunts entirely. Why, you might ask? These kind of Events simply never run for a long-enough time amount (...no, really... 3 or 4 days is honestly too small... we need this Event Type to run at least 7 days because people are never on 100% of the time... they are HUMAN after all...), and the MatchMaker constantly refuses to give us a valid Streamer/Developer for a target to take down and claim a bounty from. :(

^ this
worked for me pretty much every time.
Except for one time where I actually focused Starwolfs Fafnir, I always got the rewards by accident, didn't even notice when it happens.
Also I like having a streamer on my team, it feels like escort just with a VIP that can defend themselves now.


When am I not focused when I'm in my Fafnir? lol (GG's on any kills you've done on me)

So as expected.
People play as pure s**t, because of this event.

Bravo.

Not participating for next 4 days. What a ****

In the last few of these kill the streamer/ dev events, I counted less than 10 matches with a bounty in it... Great concept, but unless all the streamers and devs are going to play through the entire event with no breaks, it's just not worth the false hope this type of event brings.

Of all the things you could have done for an event... it's another one which rewards anti-social behaviour, stream sniping and synch drops. Interesting.


Agreed. Ugh. This is going to be a long weekend.

Not good for skilling up off-meta mech when you have a bunch of try hards running meta and trying to keep their kill death up.

You can tell the tryhards are out in force when they are STILL spamming arty strikes halfway through the match.
