Title says it all. CCP said that if you got 100 matches in within April they would give you something extra special (I think).
I'm hoping that this would be some kind of BPO (so that I wouldn't burn through my reward in mere minutes like all of the other April giveaways).
My questions are:
1) Does anyone know if ANY of the rewards are BPOs, even the bonus, before I go out of my way to get 100 matches in?
2) And also, do the expendable rewards even do much good? As much as I seem to die, I don't really see much point in getting only 5 of anything, as I would burn through that real quick. Are the Non-BPOs rewards really worth anything? |

A cheap suit that isn't entirely crap? I'd price it at around whatever your normal suit is worth if it isn't all around better. |

None of the rewards are BPO's, their all BPC's. and I think they said that the reward for 100 games was some kind of special dropsuit module for vehicles. |

The 100 match bonus is a infantry module BPO. |

The only reason I was doing this event was to sell the rewards when Uprising went live.
But obviously, I cant, no trading system  |

Some type of new infantry module. Would love it if it does end up being a BPO. |

Would be nice if the Infantry Combat module had an effect on vehicles like someone earlier suggested, but I have a feeling it doesn't. |

I think the 3 match reward on Saturday is better than the five match one.
Maybe its just 'cause I cant drive a Sagaris yet, but I already have 6 of those things. Chances are too I wont be speccing into tanks after Uprising though, so I'll just sell all my tank related assets.
Also, I dont think I need anymore dropships, please CCP.... |

"Should you accumulate an average of 5 matches per day, four weeks in a row during these days (100 matches), you will receive a special unique in-game item after the conclusion of the event!"
Ah crud, I've already missed a two days, does that mean I'm ineligible?? (A dev response would really be nice here) |

It said nowhere that you had to play 5 a day for those 5 day's each week to get the 100 match's during the event so you could skip two day's play 10 match's 2 day's in a row and 5 the other day or even just 25 in one day and not play an others for that week.
Q: Do I have to play 5 matches every day in order to qualify for the bonus reward?
A: No, as long as you play 100 matches or more during April you will be eligible to receive the bonus reward.

Could you please provide a link Cody, or could someone else confirm this? This is seriously the determining factor for me in whether or not I should start keeping count of my matches (I hoping for a cloaking BPO :D).
Also, does anyone know whether you get credit for any kind of match (skirmish AND ambush) or whether it needs to be a specific type? (I'm wondering because if type doesn't matter, then it'd be better to do ambushes since those go faster)
Thanks!

1. Cloak is (like the Active Scanner someone mentioned) an Equipment item, not a module.
2. The "BPO" part isn't confirmed anywhere I've seen.
3. All matches count. Even Corp Battles are confirmed to count towards this. |

Near the bottom. Sorry it took so long so to respond.
Also, I could have sworn that they said it was a BPO somewhere. |

"This reward will be a specially designed infantry combat module which will be released with the Uprising update."
Ok, so what we know is that this is a "specially designed" module (something you don't even see in game, so it can't just be aesthetic like the special dropsuits) and it is supposed to be a special shout-out to the "hardcore dust players" (think they said that in the newsletter).
So where I stand, I see three possible results:
1) it's a relatively normal module that is a BPO, despite above, to make it extra special.
2) it is some sort of super-overpowered module, but a BPC, so no one will use it often if at all.
3) CCP has set up an overhyped-letdown right before launch, which will in effect make many people disappointed right before they want them to pop out their wallets 
What do you guys make of this?

Honestly, this could be something as simple as a re-skinned militia AR BPC and still satisfy the conditions the devs have laid out. At the moment all we can do is play the event in the hopes that it's worth it. I think it's still a pretty good deal, you still get the BPCs we know about and there's a pretty wide selection. It's not like they're going to release a gamebreakingly awesome module so the real consideration is whether or not you think you'll regret not getting a "special" item that offers average performance (if you can justify using it at all). |

"specially designed infantry combat module" Is pretty vague, sounds to me like the OP wants an exact answer. |
