We already made plans to do all nighters... triple XP makes it all the sweeter! most of us are over 40 and getting an achievement for getting to 50 will be sweet. some of us are trying to get to 100...lol a bit out of my reach
Kitty & I played, but I couldn't tell if we were getting x3 XP & nothing is stated when you first turn on the game, like they did for St. Pat's x2 XP. But everywhere I look it says it has already started... unless i'm missing something
before this event you were getting double XP by default so don't expect the double to be tripled.
Triple XP - here's the test, in Horde, each wave is 300 for Casual, 450 for Normal, 600 for Hardcore and 750 for Insane.
My friend and I were talking about this last night, and we remembered the last time they did double XP over a holiday, they left it like that for months and when they finally went down to single, it was awful. I thought too the last time we played about a month ago (and it was def after St Patrick's Day), the casual was 150 exp for normal, but maybe I was wrong? I know last night casual was 450 and hard was 600 when we played. Also didn't seem that the "join an existing horde match" function was working, but I had a lot of connection problems due to the weather here so who knows....
What a fun weekend of Horde mode, though I am not to sure we got triple experience. Hum.. It was still fun! Not quite to level 25! I now have all the maps too!
regular XP is already @ 2, they just added 1 more to get to = 3. Not sure about anyone else, but i went from a 44 this weekend to a 49 (1/2 way to 50). It was worth my time for sure!!
