Some of the problems with this past operation.

First, banshees does not spawn alot per match if its not in gold challenge, which brings this other problem. The Commendation reward was for any successful full extraction in gold.

And most of the players know what that means, easy commendation reward by farming FB WHITE in gold challenge with the geth as opponents.

Now IF it WAS a full extraction in GOLD challenge with the REAPERS as the goal for a commendation pack, then and perhaps then, the community would had reached the required goal for the victory pack.


Absolutely right, the gold match needed to obtain the commendation should be played aganist the faction in which the targets are in. I achived several full extraction in gold aganist the reapers, and wasted a lot of rockets when there were two or more banshees chasing at me. Geth farming on white is just too easy, i've made it even with my level9 krogan soldier.

So... has anyone on ps3 been able to get a commendation pack yet? Or is it just other platforms that have it unlocked so far. I hope I don't have to contact tech support. :-/


I'm on ps3 and got it yesterday around 11pm GMT+2



Okay, thanks for replying. If I don't have it by this afternoon I probably will have to contact EA... *sigh*

Why is everyone so happy with n7 hurricane? Stat are very similar to locust, and precision is awful. Glad that i got my valiant III, it is the only "promotional" weapon that is not outclassed by a rare weapon of the same class, i mean carnifex/eagle, claymore/crusader, hurricane/geth smg, valkyrie/vindicator (this one is uncommon but has same stats with lower weight). Valiant has almost the same damage of black widow, but with much less weight and sadly no piercing effect

 For those who are yet to receive commendation packs. Let me refer you to my thread where it should be explained.

Thank you!  Appreciate the heads up on that.  I jumped into chat and they took care of it right on the spot for me.

I think this is genius, because it seems to be somekind of Viral Campaign or Story for us to prepare the launch of the next MP DLC possibly named "Rebellion"

First of all, Vorcha Troops are prepared to step into action
Hackett: "The vorcha want in, and as soon as they complete combined-arms training with our technically-skilled personnel, we will let them loose." -> Vorcha are part of the new characters

Then we have new weapons
Hackett: "Already, we are implementing plans to supply our forces with a better arsenal so that, when we next meet the enemy, they are ours." -> There are possibly three new weapons in the pack

Also there is Asari Space
Hackett: "It is with great regret that I must announce the withdrawal of forces from several colonies in asari space." -> With the new pack, there is Thessia as map coming to MP. To get control back over lost Asari Space

And of Course the (perhaps leaked) Name of the Pack: Rebellion
As if BioWare wants us players to start a rebellion against those damn Banshees, that have beaten us players for the first time in a challenge. But we strike back, the next time.

But perhaps its just speculation ^^ And if not: Great Idea BioWare! :D You´re the best !

If it were somehow effective on long range, it would be ok, but I can't kill anything unless im right in front of it, therefore there is no need for the weapon to be so extremely accurate.. If I want 3 shots in a shotgun where I have to get up close, I just use the Eviscerator X which makes just about as much damage but I get a recharge speed of 170 - 200% contrary to the Crusader's 20 - 50% ???

Am I doing something wrong with the Crusader or is it just really that bad??


In the single player I use it long-range all the time. It's really accurate. I've used it to hit targets across the field on Dagger, although I stopped  using it after that due to high weight.


if you don't get headshots with it, it's pretty inaffective at long range. But if you get headshots, it really owns, even on insanity/gold. If you pair it up with Cryo ammo, it's incredibly effective.

Some one explain to me that some how out of 22.8mil matches played with 10.5mil successful extracs that we didnt manage to kill 3mil Banshees. Lets say only a quarter of those were Reaper (when actually it should be a third) matches on bronze thats still 2.7mil banshees at one per round. Knowing full well that there are min 2 per round and up based on difficulty this leads me to believe that Bioware is full of #$%^! Plus, 3.5% of the 22.8 mil matches ended in successful GOLD extracs....700,000+ banshees if only one per round know full well that there sure as hell isnt just ONE banshee in a gold round. First your delaying crap and blaming Sony and their crap network, now my commendation pack is a day late with, yes again, another Eagle! Second, you want us to believe we didnt make our mark when your numbers dont add up. We may be a bunch of couch potato console drivers but we are all not idiots! BIOWARE EPIC FAIL!


Looking at your numbers, I can't help but agree with you.

it is possible that there were hardly any reaper matches.... but just between the hundred of us on this thread... I completely agree with you, i think we got it and they said we didn't to fit in with the lore.....

except that with a bunch of bronze players on gold, even farming becomes difficult. 

I got full extraction five times on white, and once on Ghost. Ghost was actually easier, surprisingly. 

I'm pretty sure that most people don't even care about the victory pack anymore. They, like myself, understand that victory packs really aren't worth the trouble...

Hands down, the Valiant is the best N7 weapon there is. Every other N7 weapon can be overshadowed pretty quickly, even the Crusader, but the Valiant holds up even to the Javelin under the right conditions.

I was wondering where my Commendation Pack was, then I saw that link ShadowRanger88 posted above. It did the trick for me: two minutes on text chat and my pack was unlocked.

On gold extractions: I guess my play style just doesn't suit geth on White. The two gold extractions I've gotten (:P one for each of the two most recent weekend ops) have been Cerberus on Hydra. Stasis bubbles for everyone!

I know we did not meet the weekend challenge, but I received a Victory pack but no commendation pack. I extracted on Gold at least 2 times against Cerberus, anyone else have this issue?

They should have restricted it to reapers only. The idea was to get as many banshee's killed as possible not how many geth we can kill.. The tips that the games give are really helpful, I love shooting the tank on the geth pyro's back and then watch them explode.
