Calling all Founders!

We've got a Main Event running this weekend just for you, so bring out your Founder 'Mech(s) this weekend and show us your Founder pride.

We'll have a fun Leaderboard and 'Kill Counter' Main Event just for Founders, along with a Personal Challenge where everyone can be a winner.

If Founders can get enough kills before the end of the Event they will get to choose which of the following three maps will receive the next pass in our map overhaul!

Forest Colony

Frozen City

Alpine Peaks

That's right. If you haven't already heard, we are returning to the original maps and adding key features and upgrades to bring them up to a new standard. Work is already underway on River City.

These updates may include:

Dynamic Time of Day

Weather

DropShip integration into non-CW game modes (still under a 'single spawn' system)

Map design improvements (size, geometry, and layout)

Physics objects that react to collisions (such as trees and lamp posts)

A Founders Only poll will be held after the Event, during which time Founders will be given the chance to cast a vote for which map we will update next!

Future map update release dates are TBD, but the update of River City has a targeted release date of June 16th!

Kill Counter



Get a Kill while piloting a Founder 'Mech to contribute to the Kill Total.

50,000 kills

Reaching the Kill Goal will unlock a Founders Only poll on the forums once the Event is over.
