Silencer, how appropriate.
Challenge accepted. Ready adepts.

Are people going to get locked out of their single player games again like last time?

[Clearly Balkan]

I don't see a problem with full squad extraction on Gold. My team does it every single time without problems.

[IceFire89]

I just wanna say the name of the Operation is pretty fitting

[GGW KillerTiger]

Well I'm ready to fail another community event and watch Bioware claim we beat it by .5million instead of being like, "Epic fail! Our community sucks!"

[Cricketer15]

yay

[Amila]

So, 3.5% sucessfull Gold Extractions(not FULL extractions mind you) and they make a Weekly Event that requires a Full Gold Extraction to pi$$ off the big majority of "normal" people that can't manage a full gold extraction with randoms?

Sure for a skilled team (preferably friends) it is easy, but for the normal player that plays the multiplayer casually and that has to rely on 3 strangers it is gonna be a big challenge.

TL,DR: Not a very communityfriendly Challenge this week!

Hoo boy... I have a feeling we're not going to make the Allied goal. Even with the PS3 player community, we only made 1.5 million Phantom kills. That suggests a steep drop off in the number of people playing ME3 multiplayer since Operation: Goliath. Considering Banshees spawn even less than Brutes do, and not many people are going to want to play Reapers on Gold, I suspect we'll only hit the 1 million mark.

Ah well... The Commendation packs are where it's at anyway, and you only need to get a WGG match going to get that.

nice to see another challenge but you would think they could be a little more creative with them. maybe everyone has to use a certain class or something other than kill this many enemies and survive this difficulty.

Agreed. I'd also like to see some variety in these challenges. So far all of them have been either kill X amount of a certain enemy type or survive X difficulty. I'd like to see some different challenges for a change. For example something like the entire squad has to use X class or the entire squad is only allowed to use X weapon or something other than kill X amount of enemies because that has been done to death already.

I agree with this.  Its very difficult to get a random party of four to complete full extraction.   The reasons:
- the others may or may not already had their extraction, they may just want to keep killing.
- someone including myself may trigger a map / player bug, making it impossible to get to the extraction point.
- and why full extraction, why not just the player able to survive to extraction.  Alot of us are casual gamers, we dont have friends online.  And we put in the same effort, we should not be punished for mistakes that others make.

The bottom line is, if the pack is too difficult to get, then casual gamers like myself would loose interest in weekend operations, and the multiplayer as a whole.  I mean who really play for the victory packs right.  The commendation pack is the reason why we all get involved.

My Justicar says COME AT ME.

[Ogrinash]

Actually (going back on what I said), I don't think the community will kill 3 million Banshees.

[ViciousDesires]

Solo gold extraction counts as "Full Extraction"?

No friends will be online this weekend, and public is just full of fail, even if you carry them, somehow they will just find a way to screw up.

Cerberus defectors have verified key intel on Reaper banshees to help provide us a vulnerability to exploit. Banshees are created from a specific kind of asari that cannot be replaced quickly, so we are diverting forces to focus on an all-out banshee extermination effort.
 

Oh so if we meet the goal banshees will be removed from MP for good?

[BDawgzter]

Damn I know I'm going to get a serious beat down by Reapers on Gold since I only tried it once and didn't make it to wave 3.

"For Thessia!"

Gold Full Extraction with random public is easy, Firebasewhite with Geth, I played 10 match's today and had full extraction with 7 and 3 lost (but made it to rounds 8 or 10 so got money).

If you don't know how to do the map, get on gold and join a team then watch + search the forum. You can contribute without firing a shot with just Ista Kill pulls over the counter/barrier.

That only leaves the Prime, usually 2 or 3 of them, 1 rocket and done. Most players should have 4 or 5 rockets each in case of an area download at round 10 (bastards!).

A week ago I had never done a Gold, now I can go through FBW with most teams and am trying Gold on Hydra with all ebemy to see if I can improve.

[N7Kopper]

Note to self: set all gold match enemies to Reapers to prevent FBWGG, and kill more Banshees.

[HunterKiller_]

The statistics are a nice treat.
lol @ firebase white.
Highest N7 rank fails for not being over 9000.

[stysiaq]

Damn, I hate Reaper gold, I rarely play it.
But I think it's time do some shotgun justicaring.

[element eater]

this should be fun

Wow, this challenge is going to be... interesting (to say the least).

I think I'm an OK player (not great, but I get the basics and try to help out my teammates as much as I possibly can, and screw the score card). Bronze has been becoming not challenging (and dare I say it even boring with a good team) as of late, so I suppose I am a Silver-grade player (a rather green Silver-grade player, as I haven't done too many of those, but Silver nonetheless). But Gold just scares the hell out of me!

From the thread, I gather that Firebase White against Geth is probably the most advisable map/enemy combo for someone like me to attempt, as it has the highest probability of success of the Squad Goal (also my best toon, a Human Engineer, likes to go against Geth). Or is there another map/enemy combo that I should go for on Gold?

Last operation I was shaking in my boots for the entirety of the 2 or 3 Gold matches I experienced - it was an incredible experience, I will grant you that, as it WAS challenging as hell and I hope I learned something, but I also absolutely, positively HATE it when I contribute very little to my team or, even worse, I'm a dead weight dragging my team down. Kudos to the Krogan badass that soloed wave 7 or 8 against Cerberus on Firebase Dagger, when all three of us were eating dirt. When all hope faded, he rose to the challenge and carried us to victory - what an experience!

Question: will Operation Carry be in effect this weekend in conjunction with Operation Silencer? I thought that was a truly brilliant idea by those more seasoned veterans, to take us green noobs who have absolutely, positively and categorically ZERO business hanging out in Gold lobbies under their wings, show us the ropes and hope that maybe, just maybe, we'll get some valuable lessons through our thick skulls from the experience. The FULL extraction requirement has got me worried and I hope I will be able to rise to that challenge.

I've been trying to improve my gear with Recruit and Veteran Packs, before moving on to the Spectre Packs (dear Bioware, if I get yet another Drell Adept card in my Veteran pack instead of a weapon card, I will simply go banannas - getting a Drell Adept (you know, the one that's been maxed ages ago) from 8 or 10 Veteran Packs consecutively will make even the most seasoned of soldiers go all PTSD), and think my gear is OK (again, not great, but passable). I don't mind using consumables and equipment, especially since I don't get to use them too often on Bronze.

This operation will indeed be quite challenging and I hope I will be able to contribute to my team on Gold. I will ask the Gold veterans for patience and to give me a chance. Yes, I do have a mic but strangely enough I have only heard people use voice communication on 2 or 3 separate occassions - but since I generally hang out on Bronze, suppose it's not so strange after all.

Good hunting to us all!

Can the reward for meeting the Allied Goal include eliminating the redundant character cards? Thanks!

[Bl00dwish]

Hello, I have a question. How many Commendation Pack can I get ? Only one per weekend event or unlimited per each successful gold match (during weekend event)?
