Nice little event here with a unique BPO rather than SP gains which is soooo 5 minutes ago. Big smile

Frame asked us if 5 million was too much and the CPM were more than confident that the community could pull it off no problem.

62500 ambush matches? reallly? that's considered reasonable around here?

5-10 minutes a piece with 5 days and multiple matches. Unless I did my math wrong (Highly likely at the moment) that's 90.5 games a day if it was 1 game running at a time. We hit 2 million in 2 days way back.

Follow the twitter, you'll be surprised

I just dont believe there's that many people playing dust and there sure as **** aren't with this 4 hour downtime going on right now. We better get extra time added on for all the server maint if we aren't close to the goal. I've been playing dust for a week and haven't seen the downtime be anywhere near 30 minutes for the whole time.

CCP takes efforts to make sure things run smoothly. It's a free game and if we need a 4 hour downtime to fix bugs and add things, so be it. They extend events if there are issues, and they do their best. Have patience and suit up: 17,000-34,000 players have been on at the same time, that's 30-50 deaths each for the goal. Since K/D is over-rated, I have no problems getting 200 deaths for the community.

Just watch: 1-2 problems will arise, but the event will succeed one way or another

Keys and components don't justify the effort, and the BPO is a mystery that might be useless to many not interested in he item type. In light of this, I think some SP is needed as a motivator. Support 'Keshava' for the new Gallente HAV name in honor of Cat Merc's cat which recently passed away.

Just watch: 1-2 problems will arise, but the event will succeed one way or another FYI, the 17,000-34,000 is incorrect, that number includes eve pilots. CCP made that change a while back from displaying online dust players to all players on the server. I believe the assumption was that it was looking bad with only 2-3k players online during peak hours, so the past dev team changed it.

The CPM has faith, and CCP may need to sweeten the deal to pull in the desired results. I won't be surprised if "Unexpected additional rewards" show up. Logi Forever Scout in Training What's Assault?

Balistyc Farshot The Exemplars RISE of LEGION 65	Posted - 2015.02.25 16:30:00 - [66] - Quote Ok, all the people complaining about the event BPO, you must be awesome people! Haters at Christmas: Normal Person: "I wonder what I will get for Christmas presents?" The haters on the forums: "Probably something in the wrong color so I will have to return it. Plus I have to buy something for the person who gave the gift. ... Get out of my house and take your stupid presents with you! I hate you all!" Normal Person: ( Shakes head) "WTF, Someone is a future cereal killer." Please be aware that some of you haters really need to re-examine your life choices. CCP - You need to make a really fun event to show you have a great twisted sense of humor. Put a bounty on all the forum haters and anyone else you deem in need of some justice. List them on a page and whenever we axe their clones it counts towards a massive kill board which has a reward if we hit a certain number. Plus triple chevron them on the mini map. Then you have a fun bounty system! Maybe one day we would be able to do this in our corps so we can mark people the corp wants dead and grant our own rewards. But CCP does it first.

To kill 5 Million Clones to get these Rewards is pointless, the SP Clone Challenges were more Rewarding and engaging, but this isn't, i'll still play the game in between the event but it won't encourage me to gain these rewards...

JIMvc2 Consolidated Dust 732	Posted - 2015.02.25 17:34:00 - [71] - Quote Awesome. :D For those who complain about 1000 components not being enough then I can tell CCP to make it 500 components. Its better to get 1000 than 500. Plus those 20 keys = :D Again it may not be a lot but its better than getting nothing. I wonder what the BPO will be ? Will it be a skin, a vehicle, or some weapon.

Xocoyol Zaraoul Superior Genetics 3382	Posted - 2015.02.25 19:39:00 - [83] - Quote Interesting... Last Challenge ended at 2,403,250 kills during a time frame of 3 days, which is 801,000 kills a day. This challenge demands 5,000,000 kills with a time frame of 5 days, or 1,000,000 kills a day. Our population averages for the servers are also comparable with that time frame.

Exactly my Point as well, this won't encourage me to kill clones and waste suits, the Rewards given are acquirable through use of AUR, & a BPO? There's loads of them on the market, what makes this one any different? & yet people would waste their 5 days trying to kill 5 Million Clones just to get these pointless rewards that CCP might as well just said "Hey, Good Job with the last 2 Million Challenges, here's another one but try and kill 5 Million Clones to gain these pointless Rewards that you probably could just buy straight out of the market & run out as soon you get them" During this event i'll just be playing casually not bothering because how pointless the rewards are & i really doubt 5 Million would succeed because of the lack of useful Rewards like SP, which is more rewarding & if SP was a reward it'll definitely encourage me and many others but thats the case now. Good Luck trying to complete the challenge, which i doubt would happen anyway...
