Changing from hours passed to points earned makes absolutely no sense with their rubber-banding and scaling mechanics. At least, not from a gameplay perspective. If this clusterkitty of an event ends up generating record amounts of revenue then we will have to get used to it.

I don't think anyone wants to ruin their PVE MMR for the next 5 events to get his/her 20th red Patch cover. If we see Dakens as progression rewards, it might be a different story.

I'm fairly sure the top of my brackets didn't, anyway I'm super new to the game and I manged to grind out a two Power Falcon(***stars) in that Event. That was only like what, 2-3 weeks ago. Same thing for the ***star Cap America PvE event. Got the Red/Yellow cover reward. Then again I will seriously sit here at work and grind this game for 4-5 hours (I work overnights at a desk, LOTS of time to grind this great game!)
