of naming the next series of Officer Weapons?
Obviously the Rifles are going to be in the high hundreds, if not thousands, but what about the rest of them?
I mean Swarms will maybe break 100? They need to be in the vehicle to earn a Swarm kill. How many tankers and pilots actually go down with the ship? If everyone is going for weapon kills, how many vehicles will actually be around to try and pop?
I would be very surprised to see the Laser Rifle or Mass Driver over 500.
Forge Gun? The Assault is best for infantry, however it is ineligible for this challenge. Will it break 200?
Plasma Cannon? A tough weapon to master for sure. Can anyone break 300 kills?
These numbers were pulled out of my ass like 87.3% of stats on the internet, but what do you all think will be enough kills to earn the title of "Ultimate No-Lifer for a Weekend"?

Sad but true. Only the hardcore swarm launcher users will get a chance for that. |

Indeed. I understand all the betting on which merc is going to earn the right, but I have yet to see anyone put up any potential numbers.

If you lock onto a CRU or something you can sometimes kill people who spawn off it.

ScR? We're going to be need 400+ to at least qualify
LR.... given not many of use hardcore users exists.....and in the proto stomping rifle centric environment..... 200+ should qualify for contention.

Right, and you would be lucky to get 1 or 2 kills off that CRU if a Tanker doesn't pop it first. Meanwhile the Rifle users have farmed that same CRU for 30+ kills. I'm really wondering if anyone will break 100 kills for the Swarm Launcher.

I know, but it should be possible.
If you kill an average of two LAVs a match you should be more than fine.

I'm sure I can break 300 PLC kills, so the number has to be higher than that.

Given that there time frame to complete a high score will be 69 hours (3 days minus 3 hours of downtime), and given that an Ambush match can be played roughly on a frequency of once every 15 minutes, counting for time in-between, the event has enough time to play 276 matches. That is about 4 kills per match to get 1000 and 8 kills per match to get 2000.
Just imagine all the people going for that Officer Combat Rifle! I imagine some people will not sleep, make every one of those 276 matches.

Or alternatively, use an Anti Infantry weapon, and Swarms, and you can go for two weapons at the same time.

On the flip side, a real concern would be those who are going to share an account, such as say one person plays for 8 hours, then gives the log-in info to someone else to play for 8 hours, then to a third person to play for 8 hours, and back to the original guy for day 2.

If I no life this event, I can get +2k kills with my Shotgun on Weekends. I don't think its enough to beat the best players, but I'm hoping those players will win the first few weekends and move onto other weapons, allowing me to sneak in and steal it.

I'd be pleasantly surprised to see anyone rack up 100 kills with Swarm Launchers over 1 weekend, maybe over the entire event.
Tanks and dropships still take a lot of effort to solo, and drivers/pilots often bail, which means you get the vehicle kill (not assist if lucky), but not necessarily a merc kill.
LAVs are good, especially if they are loaded up with mercs. Easy to take down quickly, before mercs can bail. LAVs are a tasty treat for my Swarms.
Plus even for a Swarmer, I don't run it all the time, I split between that and Logi or sometimes even a Heavy or Scout depending on the circumstances. Going all Swarms for every game for an unlikely reward, not worth it to me.
Anyway, good luck to those competing for the honor of naming the officer weapons.

Does a well-tanked LAV help?
I'd probably be running a Saga-II and abusing the recall for this event...

Actually the kills to achieve naming rights isn't so much popularity, but how quickly you can reach out and kill someone AND how competitive the proto tier is.
Sure the average user like me might get 40 CR kills over a weekend. But I'm sure this event is going to come down to outliers - and if there is a running tally we proably will see daylight between the couple of contenders and those help filling their quota. |
