As cool as this is, it is getting a tad ridiculous...

How long do they plan on doing that for? :???:

Oh, just give it time, not too long from now and we'll probably be having a 10x XP weekend I'll bet. :-?

Does it matter? PC cheaters still kill me easily and the servers still kick me out from time to time. Plus, I don't even bother buying DLC pack 2.

It seems High Moon Studios are slowly killing our beloved game, in hope of reviving it... you see, they try to gather more players with these weekend events. But it actually hurts more than it does good.

I really liked the double XP weeend. The quadruple i also liked, beacuse it gave me the possibility to obtain Prime Mode, as well as to max out my classes after that. But four times the XP is just a tad too much.

And now this. Seriosuly, High Moon, if you want some more players to the game, then make som new DL with more Campaign missions. I could easily come in thought of some good ideas, you know.

This would be good. The campaign mode isnt that great, I like it its just that all the missions are way too long, I like shorter missions rather than longer ones. Even multiplayer isnt that great, Im sorry, but I liked ROTF's multiplayer better because you had free space to fly around in instead of the clutteredness of WFC. I want open maps for multiplayer! And more health for the scientist.

I definately would like a more open map. Orbital Debris is meh, as it actually is better to be Leader or Soldier, down in the ring. Gorge is though i nice flying map, as you can push your enemies over the map, and you even can fly down under it a bit. Havoc have good flying space, too, but you can`t push anybody over any edges... the new maps are also spectacularly good as a Scientist, but i have yet to have tried them with other players, so...

And for "more health"; i disagree. Scientists have the Drain ability, wich can steal some of the foes life AND restore some of your own. They also have Heal Grenades, and some can upgrade their Sentries into Repair Sentries. The Repair Ray can also come in handy, though it really only can be used for others.

And for the "too long campaigns" part; i STRONGLY disagree. I like traveling around in those marvelously designed levels, and would personally like some LONGER missions, with more vehicular interpretion.

I also have some ideas for some new characters, though nobody would probably listen to that...

yessss (bw megatron time lol) now i can finally get all the classes up to 25 an get the last three achievements...but i do agree with everyone that some new campaign missions would be welcome...a great idea is using the dlc characters for individual missions...think bout it 7 new missions based on what the dlc characters were doin while the main cast waged on

Oh, come on! High Moon's torturing me now! :sad: Well, good news is I'm trying to find a job and save up for a wireless adapter, so some of you that play Xbox Live will see me playing there in the near future ;)

Oh, yes... what about a mission, where Onslaught leads the team of Demolishor and Deadend, in the search of... well, something.

Or Zeta, Jazz and Arcee, in hunt for... somebody. On the highway, of course, so expect some high speed action!

aw heck. I'm sitting at 25 with all my classes and this tempts me to go prime mode and make some progress......dang it! Unless there's some kind of reward (possibly that g1 color glitch for some of the models) I dunno if I want to go prime or not.

You know, i maxed out ALL my classes in one day at the 4x XP event. AFTER i Primed. It wasn`t really that hard, but you have to take some time. If you don`t have anything else to do, you should go for it. You don`t have to work all weekend, though, just a few hours each day would be great.

I welcome this. I personally don't see how this is hurting the game. Although, I do agree that High Moon Studios should patch the Multiplayer. I also agree with some more DLC, particularly ones catered to Solo Campaign. I'd love to use the new characters in an actual story mission rather than just Escalation.

WOOHOO!!!! Prime mode is mine!

All I've wanted since this game came out is a better color choice for creating characters online.. The color spectrum they provide just sucks...

Glad they are doing this. I missed out on the last two weekends due my TV getting hit by lightning. I still haven't gotten the latest DLC due to not being able to justify the price for what you get. IMO it should be more like 5.99, but, whatever...I'll probable end up getting it anyway.

I wish they'd pony up and give some more solo content though. Utilize the new characters in missions from the Exodus book that they were prominent in. I'd like to replay the part where Zeta was kidnapped...

That I would pay 9.99 for. Getting a little bored with content I can only use when the servers allow it.

So? You still have Saturday and sunday.

I think the next DLC should have soe of the characters fro the DS games. I would pay for ultra magnus and Motormaster!

Wouldn`t particularly have any problem with that. It`s the point of me to write it down; so they WILL hear me.
