It is called "May Free Mech Event" as in: There is 1 free mech per month and 1 month to do it. Just saying.

I see the event page, yes

Please don't get me wrong, but distributing so many machines, offering so many discounts, you know what it reminds me of? Closed and bankrupt shopping stores.

There's also the GAR-E(P) with +30% CBills bonus if you really like Gargoyle!

Clan Platinum Collection 4, or Custom Platinum Collection

[PoohPuss]

I like the way these events are run. Not overly long, not too short. Generous prizes. Gives me a thirst for more, and I've noticed it leaves me in a state of mind where I want to purchase mechs to support the game and get more new stuff.

I like Mwo's events. I could be playing War thunder, where the events and systems in general are only designed to make you fork out money or play an absurd amount of time.

Also it's already been stated by Ross(?) that the game is dated. It's like a decade old. It's not going to be around forever. Would you rather the playerbase just leave?

Thanks PGI for the free mech and mechbay...that being said....the wolf patter for the gargoyle it's kinda ugly. It looks like its wearing a poncho made off aluminum foil.

finished.
meh.
sold.

also what happened to event queue.

[BLACKR0SE]

Thank you again. It looks really nice to me. It's like escaping from hell. Orange suits it very well. It's exactly the machine I've been looking for. I love machines with energy slots on their shoulders.

A cold machine

These challenges do a LOT to keep the game more accessible than War Thunder. I play a good amount of both but every event in this makes me excited while WT makes me roll my eyes.

now i'l have 3 of these heh good i was wanting a new build..

the gargoyle D has an insane laser duration quirk especially if you add in the skill tree i think it's like -15% duration..

And with the quality of games I've had so far, getting consistently decent match score is a challenge in itself...

Sadly soo true!

I bounce back and forth between the upper T5 and lower T4, and with how busy I am- I really don't have the time to get all elite with my video game skills.

Your skills or the crappy teams you are in all the time ?!

I have the same issue with getting back to Tier 2 and higher : T3/T4 is where it is!

Let me ask you a question?

Is your mentality that only the best of the best should be able to complete events in the shortest amount of time possible and get the rewards instead of everyone having a chance at it? Seems that way to me.

That is how it was back in the old MWO days so there is nothing wrong with that mentality IMHO

Thank you for creating a nice nickname for my future mech!

And THNX!!! to P.G.I. for providing it!

[ESC 907]

I am wondering why you all could not be bothered at least making it a Champion or Legendary/Loyalty variant? I mean, "Yay, another Gargoyle-Delta!" but it is no different from the one available in the game-store for in-game-currency! Why even bother then?

[Solomon Birch]

Because it's free?

[epikt]

Plus don't forget they some months give away hero mechs: last two months were the Black Widow and the Lacerator. Free mechs is also the occasion to promote unpopular mechs - the Gargoyle is of this kind.

Anyway, you don't know what you do with your brand new hard-earned Gargoyle? I got you covered!

If you do not like this free Man-o’-War, then simply do not bother with the challenge and do not claim it.

Easy, is not it?




As for me, I kinda like my new 'Mech.

[Duke Falcon]

Seems interesting!
Two problems:
1.: Can not mount 3 cER-PPCs on it sanely what is sad... After the 4xcER-PPCs EXE-prime a PPC-boat Gargoyle would be nice
2.: Why Clan Wolf theme?! Why no love for poor Falcons? Wait, I understand now! Next free mech would be Stone Rhino with CJF themed-goodies! <DO it, DO, DO, DOOOOOO!!! ...

[Ralph Edwards]

I plan on turning mine into a sort of Thug, 2CERPPC, and 2 either streak 6 or just regular srm6 and some electronics to round it out.

The only problem is that Clan Smoke Jaguar is the one who developed the Stone Rhino
