Can you clarify on the "will arrive no later than Wednesday"? Does that mean they're currently being handed out and they'll all be out on Wednesday, or nobody gets them until Wednesday?


They listed the exact time that the packs will become available in the original post - namely at 5pm PST on tuesday. The reason he said "no later than wednesday" is because in the more easterly situated timezones 5pm PST translates to the morning or afternoon of the wednesday after. In the UK for example it's 1am on wednesday that the packs will become available.

So the point he was making is that everyone who earned a pack should have it by wednesday (and if not, then you're likely bugged and you need to contact customer service), but they won't actually start handing these packs out til tuesday at 5pm (or later depending on your timezone).

That is the way it worked during the first Operation weekend at least..


It's got nothing to do with timezones.  He said it because last time they had a staggered rollout of rewards based on region to stop the servers overloading and crashing.  It will be the same thing this time.  No later then Wednesday refers entirely to the server's local timezone (PST), not our own.

Yes!

"will require expert trained soldiers to complete" ... everybody must play gold?
Nice to know it now, because I found that promote is kinda fun.

I like this idea! Also, 1 commendation pack for every 2 promoted.

Thanks. I'm aware that's how it worked last time, I didn't realize it's following the same schedule. Must have missed the part where it said 5 pm pst on Tuesday.


ok. So now I can stop wondering what is going on. Wonder what next week event will be.

So are packs pretty much available to get in the store starting now? Has anyone received theirs yet? I am at work so I guess I will just have to try tonight.

Why do I have to work weekends? WHY.

I also find this funny considering I whined about multiplayer before release. I do like how bioware is trying to extend the life of their multiplayer with these events though, its fun.

Iron Ranger, if you just scrolled up and read you could see why they you have yet to receive your pack. Someone literally posted it like 30 minutes ago.

No. The packs are gone, something with the servers went awry and all data was lost. BW posted that on Twitter, but on the down-low... in fact, I think they singled you out, specifically, along with all the other people that do not bother to read even a single i.e. First Post of the relevant thread, as the main reason for the server failure.

No, wait I'm sorry.

Yes, the packs are all there, right now! But you only have another hour until you can redeem them, otherwise they will be lost forever. If you can't see yours, they probably didn't unlock for you, and I would call EA and BioWare support as soon as you can. There is absolutely no info on that in the First Post, so don't bother checking there. Call immediately.

Chris can you plz tell me Next week Operation will have any connection with the big announcement you are Planing to make at PAX nest weekend ?

I know from someone who's cousin with the wife of a friend of a Bioware employee that they're planning a huge DLC entitled: Operation Normandy, where we land on a jungle planet and batlle hordes of savage animals like deadly carnivorous squirrels and savage hamsters in order to resuce the crew of the Normandy and bring them back safely to Earth.   Apparently, this DLC will have multiple endings color coded for our convenience.

Nicely done!

Come on, give us a real challenge. Not just a reasonable goal from previously collected data.

You have 10 mins. Good luck.

If it's Gold, hell yeah. Hopefully a better reward. Premium Spectre Packs.

At least two rares (sometimes getting three) with a higher chance of an ultra rare. Let's go.

I actually didn't think we would pull off 150,000 promotions, but we destroyed it. Very impressive. I promoted 10 or 11 over the weekend. Hopefully the Victory Packs are worth-while this time. I'm looking forward to Operation Beachhead!

What? The OP states that they'll be given out tomorrow at 5PM PST. Maybe I'm wrong, but as far as I know no one has gotten a pack yet. Goliath was the same way.
