If you all missed it. Cmdr Wang posted here that he is willing to open this up to a two million clone challenge but does not want to make it a grind.

If we start raising that bar, then it starts the slippery slope towards the grind and that would be my main concern.
I for one welcomes this challenge, and do not believe that it will be a grind as there are staged tiers so you have the choice if you want to carry on playing or not.
What is everyone's thoughts, Should cmdr wang open it up to the two million mark
My vote is for yes |

Don't see why not. If we make it, cool. If not, no matter. Also, would that mean if 2mil clones was achieved, we would receive 3mil sp with a booster or 4mil sp with an omega?
That would be some serious incentive. |

Oh my god getting 4 mill from this event would instantly make me not even care that we only get Dropsuit Command refunded.

I support this Idea.
I agree with Commander Wang as not wanting to make this a grind fest as I know the community has angered in the past when the challenges are too grindy.
However, I could get behind the idea that: For every 250,000 clones killed, each active player will get 250,000 SP. No need to limit it, let the community figure out how much they want to contribute and grind...
win win for all

This is a home-run idea. Thinking about all this potential SP gain is making my mouth water.
Sweet, delicious SP.

It might not be achieved, but if it's stated that it's a stretch goal it'd be something really nice to try for. We might not make it, but if we do it'd be a really nice way to lead up to 1.8. Especially as dropsuit upgrades isn't being refunded.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

So wait. If the Omega booster grants a potential 2,000,000 SP from the Million clone challenge + the extra 500k it gives normally...
Does this mean 5 MILLION SP from 3 days?!??!

This is the way to go right here. Other events were "grindy" because we had a stated finish line that was, for most players, a reach.
If we just remove the finish line to see how far we can go, it's not a grind, it's a challenge. |

OVER 900- wait.... Nyx that.
Yeah, stretch goals are cool as long as they're not too specific. Killing 1,500 heavies per player is... Eeeshh. We have lives man!

Glad to see you guys are taking the constructive whining criticism into account, I got a bit sick of "forcing" myself to use heavies at around 200 kills and gave up on ever touching that sweet, sweet 750ksp
I think the thing about the skillpoint grind factor is, if we're offered skillpoints based on our individual performance in an event and we don't reach the stated cap, we're more likely to be upset about the amount of skillpoints we personally failed to get than the bonus we did get. Sure, maybe a sane, rational person would look at it like "well I didn't get the max possible skillpoint payout for participating in this event but I got some which is nice", but you know. It's us you're dealing with.
The thing about this event is the burden of "winning" it isn't on the individual player trying to reach a large goal like 1000 kills with a heavy, its shared by the whole community. I think that's nice.
Whether we reach 250k kills or a million I won't feel like I personally failed to dedicate enough playtime or effort. I don't think adding any number of stretch goals that you're comfortable with giving without screwing up your player progression plans is going to result in much whining
I think I'm going to have fun this weekend. Maybe you could try a hybrid of this total community effort skillpoint reward system and individual item rewards for individual player kills for a future event? |

Okay, 2 million challenge sounds amazing. If it is possible to expand the parameters and make further benchmarks at 1.5 and 2 that would be great.
It's okay if we fail, but many would like to see how far we can go. 2 mil clones. Let's make it happen LogiBro. |

Nah, the whole point is for this to be a community event, all of us working together towards a single goal and not individual stats. That makes it MORE fun, as selfish boosting is unnecessary.
Look at it this way, we have the original event. If we try real hard, they'll give us a bonus for doing a better job and exceeding expectations!

How about 1 kill = 1 sp
Then it feels less like a grind and encourages everyone to play.
Right now, im sure some people will just log 10 battles and hope others will do the work for them.
if 1k=1sp, then everyone would try harder to get more kills. hell, i wont even be mad when i die this time around :P

well, if everyone gets 20 kills/hour, plays 3 hours, and there are 4000 ppl online, that's 240,000/day, We could probably get 1,680,000 kills in a week. 2 mil is impossible with the current playerbase.

Not with that attitude.
Plus, it's only 4000 on at any given time, it's not like it's the same 4000 people playing 24/7.

The only issue I see with us hitting the two million mark is, "can the servers keep up?" Honestly I think we have a 50-50 chance of crashing them. So....on that note if we crash your servers do we get bonus points? |

If it's a hassle who cares it's optional and you will get the sp for just playing 10 games and having everyone else do the work it's the week end anyway.

ok some simple maths
20 kills per hr 23.5 hrs in a day (less downtime) 4000 average number of players (over the 24 hr period 3 days in the event
20 * 23.5 * 4000 * 3 = 5,640,000
Lets say an average of 3000 players
20 * 23.5 * 3000 * 3 = 4,230,000
Now lets say only 10 kills per hour per merc
10 * 23.5 * 3000 * 3 = 2,115,000
This event should be easy looking at the numbers |

Every event needs to give a larger bonus if we aren't going to set back progress for newcomers that join the game when it becomes less repetative... Which means starting at 1mil and having future events increase may be a better idea. On the other hand... MOAR SP!!! I approve. |

I think we can achieve 2 million without too much trouble. Also don't forget to double tap in case some didn't get the memo! |

I'm open to the idea of setting a stretch goal too. :) Remove the limit and make it an event about milestones. Every 250k = 250k SP!
Too boring. I think a stretch goal should really be a stretch goal and don't have save points on the way.

Getting 2 mil clone deaths would only require about 483 kills every min during the three days.
With a peak of about 3800 players and a low of around 1200 players we can easily hit two million deaths if we try.

Since only DS command is getting a respec, I really hope that 2m is made available. Will help make up for the weapon respec we never got for the new rifles.

How about making it a Million Kills minimum, if we hit more than that, then they can give the same amount of SP... ie: If we killl 1.2 mill clones, they can give us 1.2 mill clones, if we kill 1.75 mil clones, they can give us 1.75 mil clones. Just match the amount of kills :) |

I think it's not a grind so much if there are stretch goals. It's more like... you reach a million clones as the main target and anything extra becomes a bonus. As some people have said that extra mile stone becomes a challenge where those who want to do it can and those who don't wont have to.

Does this mean 5 MILLION SP from 3 days?!??!

5 million SP.... That's 6 months of SP without a booster...
