I got my two orange flares, so I’m good. I haven’t hit that mode since, but I bet if I don’t play it little more, I’ll miss it once it’s gone.
I’m thinking, maybe I need that Taco too.

I might get that taco too…
I made 2 flares, kind’a think’n bout the anti missile flare for a second unit. Paint the kaleidoscope is kind’a neat but expensive IMHO. Not sure have the tricky treats but not so excited about the rest of the choices.

Previously, you could just play pvp for the tricky treats at a similar drop rate to wires. I wanted the harvest paint but will earn zero tricky treats this time. My lava paint is just as good.

The mode is fun, why don’t you play it?
One, matter of principle. They take away a source of tricky treats to force me to play the mode.
Two, takes time away from the many challenges and the grind to earn the desired rewards.
Three, preconstructed vehicles.
Four, random allies.
Five, random disconnects of allies.

I wish it was less serious. The way the developers nerf everything, keep changing the game parameters, and the generally unstable nature of the game economy here, has me a bit skeptical about grinding for anything at all.
So, I’d rather just have some balloons, silly horns, gaudy paint, or whatever. I’ve got some pretty low consumer confidence in the perpetuity of this game. It’s different every month, often wonky, and I’m done chasing it. What would I grind out today that they won’t smash with a nerf-hammer tomorrow? Who knows?
If they ever decide exactly WTF this game is, and settle on some parameters, I might play harder…I might actually spend some money here too, but IDK what I’m buying when I make purchases here. They are sure to eventually punch a hole in the bottom of any bucket they sell. I think it’s tedious and unamusing to get sucked into that eddy.
Until they figure out what they are doing and stick with something, give me superficiality. They can’t nerf decor…can they? The power-scores can be pretty ridiculous on decor.
IMO, the art is what they do best anyway. I’ll have some of that, please, but their game economy is an unstable mess and isn’t worth the effort, IMO.

You have no friends to squad up with?
My decor once amounted to 300 extra powerscore. What is the PS on decor parts???
Do you mean like, what is it for? To keep you from having too much fun, I guess.
There is an actual excuse, but it’s like listening to an alcoholic rationalize when you hear it, so I won’t repeat it. It’s just more of the bizarre game wonk that this game is notorious for.

i want to get a few more things from this event myself so im gonna keep grinding.
i want to get 2 decor and 3 medians just to have them. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiincase they get rare again and people jack up the price 
im going to need about 600 more for what i want so 6 games isnt bad.
now that i got everything down about the mode it doesnt take long to get through it.
I’m at 2.6k right now.
The developers ran them off years ago when Dawn’s Children released with their cash grab schemes when Hovers and Fuse drones were pack only.
What pack?
You do realize you can craft hovers is dawn’s crafting bench, right? The pack hovers are a different type, but they are both still hovers.
You realize I am talking about before they were able to be crafted. They were only able to be crafted because of player outrage, same for Fuse drones.

remember the bastion? lol they ran 5k each cabin and players were wanting the blueprints for them and kept begging the devs so they added them in then they dropped to 800 each 
Point is, With the current instability of the game for this past few months perhaps even longer. (Post Fire Starters)
Why would I want to spend countless hours of my life which cannot be returned grinding for a measly weapon & or component that WILL be “adjusted” AKA nerfed in the near future. Even grinding for uranium & or badges now?
I played Steel Troopers for the loot which was actually fun at times, Doubtfully will spend the resources to craft anything as it is just a tad too pricey VS the market price to buy out right. (Decor items only)
I now play Patrol just for the fun of blow’n stuff up & for the dailies solely . The latest flood of events have become tiresome and a burden to keep up with. Making XO a side line job rather than a hobby.
Yes, The thrill of grinding was squelched many years ago post fire starters .
Life is too short and I am allergic to B.S.
This Coyote has turned Rabid.
