~1/3 of the assaults in the game can do the 2SNPPC/AC20/MRM40 combo it's always been there. IDK why people are complaining suddenly.

You can compare the range and damage of Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifles (and Binary Laser Cannons and Large X-Pulse lasers) with the optimal range of your combo.

This issue with the bonus redeems not showing up happened to some people last year, and has happened with other previous events as well. This has sometimes included free mechs being present in in inventory but not launchable as well.

IIRC, exiting out of the game entirely, closing down the MWO client or steam client, then re-launching the client and game after a couple of minutes fixed it for a lot of people having both of these exact same issues last year.

Try that first before anyone panics.

On my end, I got the 'mechs/mech bays/c-bills/premium time OK, I'm just waiting for the loot bags.

Dear PGI,

I am done with this event, but I don't have the 25 Stocking Stuffers...

Unless they were meant as a Boost Bonus to save us some grinding ??



Fun Fact :

Once my loading took soo long because of the Overloaded Servers that the Dropships already left and my mech was basically dropping out of the sky and I was able to see the whole Solaris City map during the drop !!!

My Marauder was finally flying! LOL!!!

I'm running with a Kodiak 4x AC10 with 2PPC and wrecking stuff, that combo has been available for many years.

Running the Commando with 2SNPPC is FUN. No MASC and a little slower than top speed, and missing a little armor, but you don't need to face tank like with lasers.

I need to try one with 3LPPC next.

I was not asking about your Kodiak.

I was asking about the comparison of your "2SNPPC/AC20/MRM40 combo" with the range and damage of Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifles (and Binary Laser Cannons and Large X-Pulse lasers).

I did something like that with the Javelin we once got for FREE but did not really like it to be honest...

I think the stock loadout is pretty much good enough as it is after you move the MASC to the CT
