    Hello @Mazupicua

    There were 7 days to unlock Madsen MG.. Battlefest started October 3rd and started with Madsen MG, Now October 10 was last chance to get it until the next weekly challenge start.

    So there is nothing wrong with it.. Also i'm sure that you will be able to purchase Madsen MG later in Your Company with Company Coins. 🙂

    If there was a specific time today the 10th that your could have gotten it then they should have mentioned that. From the 3rd to the 10th means that today THE 10TH I can log on and get it which I can't. And even if it is until a certain hour it is not 7 days.... It's 6 days and a few hours but no let's tell people one thing and do another.... Good one m8

    @WindowsManTv_CZE Also maybe it'll happen that you can get the gun later or maybe not who knows but that's not why I'm pissed, I'm pissed cuz at least they should label the times of the events properly...a.k.a. if it's until the 10th of October (today, as in right now) then week 2 starts tomorrow the 11th

    The "day" ends at like 3am EDT, so technically, yeah, you had 3 hours on the 10th.
    Been like this since the game launched with ToW timer
    So, yeah, it started at 3am EDT on the 3rd, ended at 3am EDT on the 10, that is 168 hours, 7 days.

    @Plucky6922I'm guessing they in Cali or some and it's 12am PST (since it's 3am est) and yeah you right it is 7 days but that means that the real last day is the 9th (11:59:59 PST) not the 10th. They should have stated it as week 1: from oct3-9 and week 2 Oct 10- whatever.... Another thing, they didn't give me (idk about anyone else) the update until the afternoon of the 3rd so idk Mang, they shouldnt cut it at midnight should at least be halfway through the 10th.... I'm in NY FYI so I also got edt time zone

    They are actually in Sweden. so it is 10am their time?, when the "week" begins, or maybe it is 5am EDT, so it would be noon their time?
    But yeah, I do know for sure, that on the Play screen, via in game menu, it will show the "count-down" of time remaining once it drops below 24 hours.

    Hey, @Mazupicua 

    The countdown goes towards 10 AM CEST (DICE is in Sweden) and at around that time DICE update towards a new week of ToW.

    After next week ToW the Madsen should go live and be able to buy it for company coins and it's normally around 1700 CC.

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    I didn’t get to play last week, logged on today hoping to purchase the gun with cc, but don’t have the option in my company. When will it be available for purchase?

    Not sure when but i think that it will be available to purchase next week.. It was almost everytime like this with Tides of War weapons that you were able to purchase that weapon week after ToW's mission.. 🙂
