Why cant they just use Greenwich mean time like the rest of the civilized world?


Because even fewer people know how to translate GMT to their own timezone than know what PST stands for and considering most of the people who post here are probably in North America, GMT is useless to most of us.


You can keep your GMT over there with "the rest of the civilized world" for all I care. When the game is developed, stationed in and majority of players are from Europe I'll be more than happy to go off that. Till then, we'll just keep doing things the snobby North American way.


Got two things:

1) It's technically PDT now, or Pacific Daylight Time, since California uses daylight savings.
2) EA is headquartered in California. That's why everything is in pacific time. And because my state is awesome.B)

In fact UTC is used worldwide nowadays, in europe and africa some use GMT as a synonym for it because it is basically the same.
PST is basically a synonym for UTC-8.

So if they want everyone to understand they should neither use "PST" nor "GMT-8", they should use "UTC-8" instead.

I think that they should use MDT, because BioWare Edmonton is located in the Mountain time zone.

These issues never happened to me on PS3, but looking at the thread I can tell quite a few people had problems.

The commendation pack is if you and your entire team makes it all the way through gold and gets extracted. If one team member dies and fails to get extracted or if a team member is not in the LZ for extraction when time runs out the commendation pack earning fails. The victory pack only gets rewarded if the challenge itself is a success.


I know about the extraction part, my question is do you get the comm pack (if you completed the gold challenge part) even if the Phantom challenge is failed.


Okay, FIRST, Heather is WRONG, Chris already stated ANY extraction will do, partial, lone wolf, or full, ALL count.
And second, IF we failed the phantom challenge (hahaha...yeah right...) But you completed the extraction you still get a comm pack on tuesday.

First they know typical kill totals and there is no way 1 million would not be reached.
I bet we kill way more than that every weekend

We got 3 million brutes but even with no 'contest' we would have killed probably 1.5

its a lock and what i want is a spectre pack every time i promote a character. Give me a reason to start a new character.

^^ It'll actually happen faster in gold challenges because brutes show up so much more often. In my humble opinion, anyway...

Phantom... Guess I will see a lot of sniper rifles and stasis bubbles.


As a matter of fact i kind of regretted not having an asari adept leveled up on hand:pinched:... or at least the batarian sentinel and his submission net, which i just havent acquired yet.:crying:

But yes, plenty of stasis bubbles. They were quite handy.:P

this pulls my count up considerably then. i only counted full extractions, and got quite peeved when somebody was dead or missing at extraction. :P

When will they announce the results? I don't expect the pack/packs until later today, or tomorow, but it's already Tuesday and there aren't any news.

I think usually the results go out around the same time the packs go out.

Probably hear later on today.

Chill out friend! The weekend operations have been in process for almost two months and the packs have consistently been granted sometime around the late afternoon or evening of the following Tuesday, so unless you're in a location that is drastically different from mine, there are at least several hours to go before you can even start looking for them (hopefully there won't be any glitch issues affecting these packs like there have been before). It certainly isn't time to start getting your knickers in a bunch!

Bioware has ben very consistent, for me the packs were available at 20.00 hours (GMT +1 (Netherlands)) every Tuesday after an ops. weekend.

However, Bioware should be able to give us the info if the 1 million Phantom kills have been made or not. It's not rocket science.

 Please tell me that by doing multiplayer on Silver this weekend that I still qualify for the 1,000,000 phantoms pack - I know I won't get the squad survive pack, but they didn't say anything prior to the weekend that the phantom kills had to be on Gold.  Here's hoping.

One wierd thing kept happening to me - although I set the options on 'Quick match' to Cerberus, occasionally we ended up fighting Reapers.  What's that all about?
