That's like a minimum of 10+ hours of playing Dust 514 over the course of the week just to get some items most people probably can't even use.

Remember that if you don't meet the requirement for tier I rewards, you can go for tier II and get both tier I and II rewards. This means if you play 50 matches a week, an average of 7-8 matches a day and win 21 of those matches, you will get rewards from all three tiers! You don't have to be Rambo to win 21 out of 50 matches, so the goals for this event are very reasonable.

Okay, so you guys want better rewards for doing events, we get it.

We want to make sure the events themselves are working in the right direction before we start throwing out the goodies, and believe me, there are some sweet things coming (for events at least ). We are working on a holiday themed event for later this year, and we'll make sure you guy get lot's of cool stuff, but to do that, we have to make sure the event goals are solid first.

So, thanks for all the comments, yes, even from you trolls because even your rants provide useful information and I'll be seeing you on the battlefields of New Eden soon.

..I really like that the event is requiring people to actually attempt to win battles. At least this will keep people from Event AFKing...

Not sure of the need to increase complexity of these events when you have no tracking. Make it simpler, no 42% here, 45% there at tier this or tier that. Is it asking too much to say just win 20 matches and get xx items, win 30 matches get xx items.

They stack, I don't have to worry about leaving a game wasting my time to try to get the magic % of win/lose or figuring out I lost too many game for tier one so I have to win xx to get tier 2 rewards thus also unlock tier 1.

From one programmer to another, simple just works best.
"Make it so, Number One"

I totally agree simple is good. But the danger is making events too simple. Then people say it's not fun. The Human Endurance event was pretty simple, but then players complained that it was too much grind. Other feedback on previous events also mentioned that multiple goals in a single event will help motivate people to keep playing instead of stopping after reaching a single goal.

Not being able to track progress is something we are working on addressing. In the next patch, you will see the first step towards that. I won't spoil it but you'll be able to read what it is tomorrow when the patch notes go out.

I havent read through this thread yet ( and probably wont )
but if i end up playing 500+ matches in this time period ( which i probably will )
does this mean i have to win 42% of them all??
Or do i just have to win 42% of the first 100 after the event starts

So i ended up reading and coolio
But why are the tier 1 and 2 rewards better than the tier 3 rewards? lol

I like the direction of the event, just not the pay off I guess.

events should honestly make the game feel different bring us out of our normal shell, in this case it's going to make us care about our win loss ratio, but I just find it hard to get motivated for those bpc's...

might be different if the market was in and we could trade them, or if they were officer grade equipment maybe...

end of the day I think i'd of prefered to see this most coincide with the release of a new game mode and then allow players to get said reward by playing said game mode.

So this is your idea on how to get people to care if they win or lose, as opposed to actually fixing the bloody game as we've all been asking for, for months and months. Good job.

Unfortunately yes... I would like to suggest to have a 'no count' for joining a match with like oh say 1 minute let on ambush or 10% clones left.

This may or may not be the right place for my comment but it is Because of this event that I am interested in it.

Specifically how can we track win/loss besides pen and paper. We can get total win/loss over all but I don't know of anyway to find this information out in game. Or in forum for that matter.

If there is, please let me know Dusters.

If not, please think about adding enough information to track event results.

And, as always, we really are anxious to get the API. Even it is means the interface changes with major release numbers. Yes, I can help you design it if needed.
