I'm not even proposing something huge here. It just donned on me playing tonight how cool it would be to have some kind of special condition/map/commentary/bots/etc when you played on Monday night. To deal with the global span of the game it would obviously be controlled by server time. I would really just be happy with some additional commentary from Micky or Bull's eye. I really like the seasonal bit. It would be great to extend it to a weekly bit of fan service. IMHO If you think it is a good idea feel free to post what you think it would be cool to have. Just some thoughts off the top of my head. Beer item drops that would blur your screen a bit for a few seconds. Just a added hazzard for when you dive into money/juice/churros. Turret flair based on team composition. What ever class is most numerous the level three gets some sort of addition i.e make the missile turrets tank shaped. Fans actually shooting their sniper rifles at Bull's eye for some added chaos when he's out on the field. Just once a week. Think about it.
I actually think this is a good idea, on the basis of changing things up with a game that can get pretty stale.
An idea someone had in a topic of mine was "Double Earnings Mondays", where you would earn twice as much money (For buying protags as well as leveling up) at the end of every match. I think it would be great.
Double money mondays! It could be like a bi-winning! It makes the players happy, and it could be an advertising point! OH MY GOD I'M A GENIUS, UBER SHOULD HIRE ME AS A MARKETING CONSULTANT!
For this to really be effective, I think MNC is going to need a little bit more purchasable items other than just tags and classes. NO NOT HATS. But just something else to take into consideration.
Yeah double money is an option. But like OD said. There really isn't any need for extra money. The tags do add some fun but I always feel like I have more money than I know what to do with. I'm not even at the 1st level of All star yet and i feel like my pockets are bloated. I think a special night of chaos or pageantry would be more welcome. Or even just a match where bacon dropped instead of Churos.
Lifetime Earnings is what determines your level, so it would sort of be like a double xp day once per week.

On mondays 3 or 4 new mini game types are available based on the community mini games like sumo, they're only playable on mon though. "Monday Night Combat arena fan exhibition matches" Also the juice machines run out of stock after Sat night so all crossfire matches on Sunday have them turned off. They get restocked in time for Monday night so no juice until 8pm GMT -or- on Mondays the juice dispensers change to juice drainers - 'buying juice' drains all the enemy players of juice and keeps them from earning any for 10 seconds, but gives you no juice.
Nobody answered my question. When is this "monday"? It's quite clear by the official servers that Uber's not catering only to the north american time zones. If it were determined by server time it could easily be abused by setting the server clocks to stay on monday. >_>
"American Monday". It lasts the whole day so while us 'Mericans sleep the others can get exp, or the other way around depending.
