Edit: There was a ninja boost last week? Welp

[Nyansan]

Welp, since there is most likely no more motivation for the few people who CM to keep doing them Sega might aswell convert shared ship to an inter-ship lounge for videos, events or something. Like, that's the only use for shared ship nowadays

I'm kinda mad at this though, because C-mode is really fun (to me at least). What cripples it is really the lack of decent rewards, or said rewards are ridiculously overpriced (50000CM for one tri-boost ? wow, just wow), and more importantly, the lack of CM missions (it's even worse than Ult since those are missions with fixed spawns and events, so you can get bored of it pretty quick). So best way to fix those issues is to remove more of the appeal of it to let it die ? Yeah...

NOTE: Sega has called this week of Challenge Miles Boosts the "Final Acquisition" it sounds as though after this week CM boosts will no longer be in affect.

What the shit, WHY? There was barely any reason to do CM as it is because of the outdated as hell shop, why are they removing the boost? How else am I suppose to get Lambda Grinders to grind all these 13*s, especially OTs, without being a Zieg altoholic? This is such bullshit.

RIP Challenge Mode if this is true.

EDIT: And true it is not.

CM is fun; waiting 20 mins for an mpa to start is not (and then having most of the MPA quit halfway). The only way to consistently get 12/12 instantly is be in 801, which is almost always full.
Also, CM shop is very outdated in terms of price. Ideal weapons are not worth the effort to get, photon boosters can be gotten more easily from seasonal EQ badge drops, and every other thing in the shop is almost worthless.

I'm actually hoping that the changes mean they'd revamp CM somehow.

Unless they posted about this somewhere else, the CM boost isn't going anywhere. If this is based off the scheduled EQ calender, Google translate isn't the most reliable way to verify this kind of info. Here is the text in the calendar plus what Google translate spits out.

最終獲得チャレンジマイルアップイベント開催！(The final acquisition Challenge miles up event held!)

What it really means is your final total of CM is boosted. It's had this header for a while now. Maybe since the very first one but I never noticed until a few months ago.
