Heh, the thing is that my SSD is full, one of the similiar games (Dreadnought from Six Foot) will soon get it's servers "lights" off, still dealing with bad things in my life; not mentioning that my buddies are attempting to take me over for WoWs, Elite Dangerous, ETS2/ATS, and even... Farming Simulator

But yes, maybe I should keep my mouth shut...

I will preface this with a "I intend no offense" but... yes. The playerbase has, in large part, proven that they are unempathetic and prod for weakness like sociopaths would. They will dish out **** and screech like scalded cats when it comes back at them. They don't care. They're incapable of it. Hallmark of certain generations of people, best denied headspace and upon whom kindness should never be wasted.

Some nights the only thing that keeps me playing is the potential opportunity to become good enough to grind one of them into dust. On my own, without their help, and I will use that fact to salt their wound.

This is one of the politest and most helpful online gaming communities I've seen in my ~30 years of online gaming. If it's general atmosphere offends you then the problem does not lie on the community.

It's a free to play game. If you're playing out of spite then again... The problem does not lie with the game.

There are nights where I can enjoy it as is, and the mouthy ones don't bother me. Last two have not been like that, especially after the stunt one pilot pulled because I disagreed with his baserush plan sharply in the previous match.


And I'm STILL glad I did.

When there are 5-6 light mechs on the enemy team, I don't really enjoy this game. We're not fighting, we're chasing flies.

Just play MWO like you usually do, don't worry about Phase 1 loot bag yield...

It's quite OK to get your loot bags from Phase 2+3, and especially Phase 4 of this generous 2023 Beach Party Event!
(Four Hero Mechs alone would have costed US$40 in a 'special sale' three years ago--I was there).

Thank you MWO in advance for the four (4) Hero Mechs !!

Hello there, 'Roodkapje' & ''... Are you telling everyone who can see your posts that you would rather LOSE the additional September Event that our friendly 'Matt Newman' is intending to launch in the future?

There is no shame in overlapping Events

THIS IS LITERALLY NO TIME TO BE HAVING ANY KIND OF NEGATIVE TILT ABOUT THE EVENT WHICH IS RUNNING!!!

You are being weird again! PLEASE DON'T !!!

Plus, do you both REALLY want to be out there in the Heat for a while getting sunburns which require tons of time laid down resting, sand in your toes which you would have to clean out later, scrapes caused by falls needing many a bandage, and all that nutty junk? And do you also REALLY think that many people get vacations which last anywhere at all near as long anymore, and would run past this Event's timeframe too? (By the way, the answer on that one is a "NO!" in all its' juicy glory...) I most certainly shall not want that madness, neither would others, and nobody needs the associated headaches from the downtime caused by wearing the body too thin! Be happy that you're getting to hunker down with your computer and Mechs to pilot, safely covered in Real Life by the cool & shade of your homes, all while you're earning even more in MWO's environment to enjoy!

Sorry you don't feel the same way!

Elite Dangerous was kind of fun to play for a while but I was quickly done with getting my good old Freelancer fix by using that game due to the lack of cool ships once you have aquired the first 3 of 4 ones in the beginning :
- Starter ship.
- Eagle MKII
- Cobra MKIII
- Some MKIV ship similar to the Cobra that I forgot the name of...

I mostly just play for events... and this setup has encouraged me to pretty much just not play until end of July.

I think I will try to do it in two parts :
- Phase 1 & 2 in one blast.
- Phase 3 & 4 in one blast.

Not that I need or feel like wanting any new mechs by the way, but hey... who knows... I might figure out something new that I still haven't tried with my current mechs!

We're not fighting, we're chasing flies.

Time to build some Light Hunters then :
- Streak SRM2 x 5 of x 6 at least.
- Light TAG/TAG
- Light PPC/ER PPC
- Light Beagle Active Probe/Beagle Active Probe
- Carry one UAV at least!

And protect your big slow buddies against those flies and flea's !!!

Redeem all -button seems to work only on Phase 1.

Tried on 2 browsers so far.

There's a redeem all bonus further down.

[Erik Jorgensson]

I looked about 20 times, but for me the Supernova Seraph is missing as an option to pick as an assault price. There is only the Supernova Boiler. I asked to other guys and they have the same problem, no Seraph found in that list. Can you pls add that hero mech to the list?

[SmokeGuar]

Seraph and other legends are monies only. Only those on in-game store heroes are available as prizes.

Seems like a wise choice. I have only 19 lootbags so far (not counting the bonus redeems from the legendaries).
It just doesn't feel rewarding at all.

you get free MC events like these are where I get the MC to buy hero mechs like the boiler the UV and such.

[w0qj]

Many thanks to MWO for being so generous!

Having fun while playing MWO; it does not feel like a grind to achieve the Beach Party Hero Mechs!

[CwStrife]

I know some people have said the grind on the match score for the loot bags seems like alot, but there is alot of time for the event and even with pahse 2, 3, 4, phase 1 rewards will still build.

I ended up buying a legend and really like the Battlepass, and the fact you get an extra 50 loot bags is awesome. Picked up 6 of the legends, played them thru the battlepass, and can't beat the extra 300 loot bags.

The amount of premium time and such being given out is just awesome. Thanks PGI. Need some more Legend mechs added so I can buy some!

[BLACKR0SE]

I find the regular boxs too in the game enjoyable. I like opening box

I won today.

A decal. There is so many of them. I never bothered to have a look upon ALL of them. Would consume half a day or so...
I think if someone take the time for it may found real shinies...
I am content with my CJF logo the rest I either won of got from salvage caches - still only about 8-10 decals from the 50-60 I already have.
Still I wish we could have custom decals to upload but PGI sure not have a spare employee to check them before accepted (CoC violating contents and suchs)...

[Ashvins]

Yo PGI you missed a heavy hero on your selection drop down, the Roughneck - Bolt.
It is the ONLY HERO you do not have on the dropdown list for the heavy Hero's.
Please Fix this oversight.

[CFC Conky]

Earned my 400th loot bag last night.

Very generous event, thanks PGI.

Good hunting,
