Did anyone else get an account injection/

[spartanspud]

I got an injection for some reason for 3 million Cbills and 80K GXP as well as something else after I loaded in post patch. I have no idea why this was. I didn't buy anything recently. Did anyone else get it?

When did you finish your cadet bonus?

[spartanspud]

It was in February some time i think. I am pretty sure that is when I started playing.

I think it may have been a Solaris reward. It looks like a new season started.

[Wendrig]

it is an Solaris Reward yes.

[spartanspud]

Ok that makes sense. If I had known they were so good I would have played more divisions. I only did tier 4 or something with my first mech.

you don't have to be good. You can lose all of the 25 matches it takes to be listed on a division's leaderboard and still be listed as top 100 because so few people play solaris 7 and even less play 25 matches per division.

When I said good I meant the rewards.

[Zyrrashijn]

I see, nevermind. Well, new season's up and you can try to do 25 matches in any division you like. Good luck 👍!

Thanks, now just to sit through the long wait times. :')

The solaris rewards are actually quite good. Upper level players get really good prizes. Solaris could use some more weekend events for sure to raise pop.

Yeah, PGI kind of killed Solaris now. For the three years until now, each season got a kick-off event with some easily farmable rewards; that got everyone flooding Solaris for a few days, making it relatively easy to crank out your 25 per division within the first two weeks or so.
I've got something like a million GXP saved up from past seasons as a result.

And a return of launch events (which have been a thing until this year!). Incentivized properly (no, the silly caches do not count), it could be a reasonably active mode - but PGI could never get a grip on properly timing and structuring the events, so we had things like kick-off events starting mid-week (screwing up player activity even worse) and events incentivizing playing maybe two dozen matches total (because let's face it, barely anyone did 2v2s).

Yeah it would be nice to be able to get some matches done. If I could get 25 done in every division that would be a lot of stuff next season if that one placement was anything to go by.
