Well, considering the current shape of MWO, it seems to me that it was Russ Bullock who was on the island, after all ... Posted Image

Today is my tenth anniversary with MW:O, so I will gladly kill some Mechs to get the cockpit thingies.

OK. spent 45 minutes trying to create an event queue deck. All I've been able to do so far is swap out the first mech...

Same here, I can't add mechs ti the drop deck. However I can launch with only 1 mech in the deck.

EDIT: Lol, it's a 1 mech only event going on right now. :)

Challenge completed!

I have played it in the Quick Play queue and I needed the last four kills ... and I got them in one game.

The Incubus works nicely on Tourmaline, even without jump jets.

I really like that speed and agility of this BattleMech. Posted Image

You can use unskilled Trial Mechs to fill the rest of your Event queue deck, but the results will not be pretty...

You can work towards filling out your Event Queue deck for the next Event...
Heck, you get 1x free mech per month, right?

We can offer coaching for faster filling out your stable of mechs should you wish! ;)

IT'S A DRY HEAT, 20 min match, but only 750 tickets. That does not read anywhere, btw.

Really needs 1250 to be useful with 4 mech dropdeck, you can actually do this with just 1 mech.

!!!!!! LOVE EVENT QUEUE !!!!!!

750 tickets is not enough for a 4 mech deck. I haven't gotten to my 4th mech yet, and have never left the drop zone in my 3rd mech.

Conquest need to run to 1250 points or so.

20 minutes with 750 means it's just old conquest with too many mechs.

I will fix the IS faction pattern (and Warhammer IIC) sale as soon as I can, and I will extend the sale 3 days. I'll also throw some heat-themed 'Mechs into the sale.

PLEASE remove the domination nonsense! Let us have a proper deathmatch for once.


This, Domination is determined by the first team to get 8 kills. After that It only becomes a exercise in frustration for the other team as the opposition only needs to keep them out of the circle.

I like the Event Queue but every Domination match in it has always been 1 sided after the first drop.

I have been on the winning team smart guy, it's still redundant to have multiple drops when the first drop determines the entire game.

The conquest matches were over a little too fast, but other than that it was a great event. We basically got to try out faction play with 6 or 8 players on each team - it's much better! I recommend smaller teams for both FP & QP.

Dropping with only 1 or 2 weight classes was perfect - some of the most fun & balanced matches I've had in a while. It prevented the usual nascar & assaults desperately trying not to get picked off by lights.
