Now that I think about it, what if someone gets the 'Everything resets' bug after redeeming their N7 weapon?

Feels bad man.

[Xaero_Dumort]

Sounds great. But 1 million feels like a really steep number.

What's wrong with the SMG? with clip extension and heat sink improvement you fire faster and more accurately than the Revenant, and running out of ammo is for other people... Tempest in MP and the N7 SMG in SP being what i used

Anyway, i don't care if it won't get me a pack, i Will destroy every brute i can find on PS3 anyway. it still gets me credits and it might be stats counted for the overall number right?

Because even pistols have a faster TTK than all of the SMGs. They're also more accurate. That's why. The ultralight materials don't even work for some people either. The weight changes but your power recharge when you check your abilities stays the same as if you weren't even equipping it.

1 million brute skulls for the skull throne? Bioware must scheme to become Daemon Princes of Khorne!

[Creston918]

I think Cerberus and the Geth are going to have a quiet weekend.

[MRedfield]

I was pretty damn excited about this up until I read that my PS3 games won't count. I'm approaching an N7 level of 200 here and could really use a new challenge or reward like that.

Please do what you can to get something like this to us, BioWare!

PS3 screwed over, yet again.

I really hope this secret exclusivity crap with Microsoft only lasts for a few months. I'm going to be severely disappointed if it lasts more than 6 months.

It's the PS3 being a piece of **** that's causing it...

The fact that is has more than twice the recoil of the Revenant and that SMGs lack a stability mod seriously hamper its usefulness beyond very short bursts or very short range.

So another ****** on us PS3 users

Go buy an Xbox - you have 4 hours!

I actually have one (xbox 4gb version only) however no ME3 for it. Was thinking of it , but I have tossed enough coin at Bioware from the PS3 side.


Guess you would also have to pay for the Network access on the Xbox network. Not that familar with it yet.
Only really played ME1 and a few older games on it so far.

Operation Goliath
Citadel Allied Command is mounting a galaxy-wide operation to cripple the Reapers’ shock troops: the turian-krogan hybrids known as “brutes.” To flush out Reaper ground forces, N7 teams are deploying to engage the enemy in key theaters. Heavy reinforcements are expected anywhere fighting begins.

Community Goal: Inflict heavy casualties on Reaper “brutes” on March 16th, 17th, and 18th.

Community Unlock: If this goal is met, all N7 squads will be awarded a Victory Pack that can be unlocked the following week.

Squad Goal: Successful extraction from a Reaper-held zone at a Silver threat level or higher.

Squad Unlock: Your squad will be granted a Commendation Pack.

Your allies are counting on you. Now is not the time to let them down.



Welcome to the first N7 Challenge weekend!

Join your friends on line between 5 PM PST Friday, March 16 and 5 AM PST Monday, March 18, and take the fight to the Reapers like never before.

• Any player who is part of a squad that beats the Reaper faction on Silver difficulty or better will unlock one Commendation Pack.  This means that at least one member of the squad must be extracted at the end of the mission – this will earn all squad members the reward. Each player can earn a maximum of one pack, and each pack contains a random N7 Arsenal Weapon. Originally only available as single-player weapons via the N7 Collector’s Edition, these multiplayer variants will be exceptionally rare and are NOT obtainable through regular purchasable Reinforcement Packs.   The Commendation Packs will contain one of the following guns at random: N7 Crusader Shotgun, N7 Eagle Pistol, N7 Hurricane SMG, and N7 Valiant Sniper Rifle.
• Destroy as many brutes as possible – if the multiplayer community kills a combined 1 MILLION brutes within the hours of the challenge, ALL players will receive a Victory Pack as a reward. 

PLEASE NOTE THAT REWARDS WILL UNLOCK ON TUESDAY, MARCH 20 @ 5 PM PST. YOU MUST REDEEM (OPEN) YOUR PACKS IN THE MULTIPLAYER STORE MENU WITHIN 7 DAYS, AT WHICH POINT THE PACKS WILL EXPIRE AND CANNOT BE RESTORED.

THIS CHALLENGE IS ONLY IN EFFECT ON XBOX 360 AND PC. UNFORTUNATELY, DUE TO TECHNICAL LIMITATIONS, WE ARE UNABLE TO EXTEND THIS PROGRAM TO THE PLAYSTATION 3 PLATFORM.


N7 CHALLENGE - FAQ

How do I participate in the N7 Challenge Weekend “Operation: Goliath”:
To participate, you will need to:

•  Ensure you have access to Mass Effect 3 multiplayer and can play matches
• Progress tracking and unlocks are only possible if you have data tracking enabled. To verify this, in the game go to: Options -> Online -> Upload Gameplay Feedback, and make sure it is “ON”.  If this is set to “OFF” your completion and/or contribution to the challenges will not be tracked and you will not receive any unlocks.

When will I receive the unlockable packs, and do I need to input a code to get them?
Unlocks will be granted at 5PM PST, Tuesday March 20.  No codes are required, you will automatically receive your packs in the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer Store.

What is in the Commendation and Victory Packs? Can I choose my unlocks?
The Commendation Pack and Victory Packs contain a number of upgrades and consumables for use in ME3 multiplayer. The Commendation Packs will contain one of the following guns at random: N7 Crusader Shotgun, N7 Eagle Pistol, N7 Hurricane SMG, and N7 Valiant Sniper Rifle.  This unlock cannot be swapped or changed.

I failed to get extracted in a Silver match versus the Reaper faction, but my squad mate was extracted. Will I still receive a Commendation Pack?
Yes.

Is a full squad of 4 required to unlock the Commendation Pack by beating Reaper Faction on Silver?
No – but it is recommended to improve your chances! As long as one person makes it out alive (extraction) all members of the squad will get a Commendation Pack when they are unlocked on Tuesday.


How will the community know if it has killed 1 Million brutes by Monday 5 am PST?
We will announce the results on our facebook page, twitter and forum sometime on Monday.

Do I have to play multiplayer during the challenge to get the Victory Pack unlock?
No – if the community kills 1 Million brutes within the challenge period, ALL players will receive the Victory Pack. However, your contribution to the kill count would be greatly appreciated!

I think I should have received a Commendation Pack and/or a Victory Pack but did not. What should I do?
You should verify the following:

• You were logged in with the correct Origin ID (linked to your Xbox Gamertag or PSN ID if you are playing on a console)
• Verify you have data tracking enabled per the first question in this FAQ: in the game, go to Options -> Online -> Upload Gameplay Feedback, and make sure it is “ON”.  If it was “OFF” during the challenge period, you will not be able to receive the unlocks.
• Please note that you must redeem (open) the packs within 7 days of receiving them. They will disappear from your multiplayer Store menu after that and you will not be able to have them restored. Don’t delay in obtaining/redeeming your packs.

[*]it's on!!!!

[Tenkawa]

NOOOOO!!!!! I go on vacation on the 20th and don't get back until the 28th. So if I earn the packs I can't redeem them.

Well, different people like different things, and I kinda got used to the old Tempest recoil and such thanks to demo and being infiltrator in ME2, so could be I just don't know better.
I do Ok damage with it, save my predator VII for things that require accuracy. Like mail slot, and the guy in the distance.
For anything else, with mag IV and heat sink II, 85 shots per clip plus 30% chance of the bullet not counting... 130-odd rounds per reload, even with Tempest I does hurt things.

Plus the infiltrator stuff meant i can just compensate for recoil almost exactly...
Um, sorry to the people I told it was good if its just cause I've overused the thing for two full games.

...and Tempest I - Tempest 1, in case it reads otherwise, it did to me just then.

yeah, im sure the PS3 can barely handle an extra pack...oh wait, yeah it can thats why the equipment packs showed up all of a sudden....

so what are ps3 players just gonna get shafted out of everything? just because our operating system operates on a linux based system? what kinda *bleep* is this? You know i didn't mind when xbox/pc got the recruitment packs but events like this should be cross systems... You should find a way to figure it out...

 This is quite the annoyance. :I I paid for the game, Hell, I even payed for the From Ashes DLC. Yet, being on the PS3 means I don't get any of this.

classy.

[bobbo8u]

love this idea, i hope you guys continue making week/weekend objectives.

quick question though, for the devs i guess, but how are we supposed to level these weapons we get from these special packs? a lvl 1 gun would be cool, but in golds and such the level X weapons really make a difference, making this weapon little more than a novelty. maybe once we unlock the level one version of these special weapons we start unlockign them in spectre packs?

If I could tell Kinect my favorite color is green and save myself a few hours, I'd go out and buy both.

its actually the fault of Sony not bio-ware, or rather the very paranoid requirements they put in place after they got hacked, its the same reason the PS3 didn't get the BF3 soldier. and they have said a number of times that they are working on getting it allowed by Sony, but these things take time.

In the interest of not degrading the thread into a console war... I'm going to glide over the inflammatory comment, and proceed right to the part where some of us didn't have much of a choice in which platform to choose.  I would have much rather bought the game for PC, because of modding potential, better controls, better graphics, etc... however all my friends bought it for ps3, so if I wanted to play with them, thats what I had to get it for, and now I can't help but feel a little shafted by being excluded from the bf3 soldier and now this weekend. 

If this applied to ps3, I could almost guarantee we'd have 4 tv's set up at one of our houses this very night, slaughtering brutes a plenty.

[PapaKain]

Come on guys, stop crippling the PS3. Isn't it enough that the game runs slower on the system? I play the story on the xbox and multiplayer on the PS3, if my galaxy at war crap passes over to my xbox, why can't I get multiplayer challenges??? Damn it.

That's fine i'm glad they're taking their security seriously but at the same time bioware/ea should also try to work things out... Ps3 gets battlefield 3 DLC 1 week earlier than all other platforms so i know it can be done... But this seems unacceptable... I'm sure it's nothing to do with "equipment based issues" But as players of the ps3 we should get reimbursement don't you think? I use pc for certain games but others I use ps3. I shouldn't have to feel like i'm being cheated out of events that should be cross platform. Sure giveaway events like that special sniper rifle I understand because it was an alienware giveaway. But, events like this should be made available to everyone.

I don`t dare, becaus if I were to be unlucky and randomly get into a hacked lobby, I`ll be banned.
Fix that, ban those who hack and not the people who actually wants to play fair, then I`ll dare.
