Then you've played in a modded game. The cap is set at 2 - meaning there can only be 2 (two) Banshees on the map at the same time. Kill one of the two, and another will spawn. But there will never spawn a third Banshee while the other two are on the field.

Finally we got a real challenge, with a real chance of failure. I think it's good for the ops, we will need to do a real effort to win this. Now they need to give us a interesting victory pack, so people get real motivated to participate..

So does this mean everyone who is resenting the fact not even going to try? ;P

Count me in.... farm a bit on fbw/g/g for the extraction and the rest of my games will be against reapers on random

Good man  
My plans are about the same.

I guess it's a good thing victory packs are useless.

This.

Who gives a **** about Vicotry Pack when everyone is after the Comm Pack?

[Scottus4]

@ people talking about the pack: the point is that we need to win. I couldn't care less about the victory pack, but the community putting in the effort and winning is what matters to me. Just sort of a matter of pride. Although I suppose if we win this, Bioware might escalate things even further than this.

Now they need to give us a interesting victory pack, so people get real motivated to participate..

Well, this would work too.

I give a quadruple asterisk about Victory Packs.

I think we can do it.  I'm also pretty sure that I've seen 3+ active Banshees at one time.  Regardless, my novaguard is ready to take down some Banshees (and not die a glorious insta-death in the process).

Vics definitely need to be spiced up in the future. I think it would be cool if they had a random sp-only weapon or something similar. Mostly because I want my Valkyrie in MP lol.

Really?  So you need common blues that you can get in any pack in the game?

No.

That 1.5m phantom figure seems dodgy to me. There are around 150k active players in MP (out of over 400k). I would've personally killed well over 200 phantoms that weekend. Admittedly I played on Gold a fair bit, but 1.5m/150k is only 10 phantoms each on average. Heck, that's only about 300k bronze Cerberus games in 72hours between 150k people. 1.5M seems way too low.

No, that's not true. Play gold and you'll see that he's right. I've also seen 3 to 4 Banshees at the same time on gold.

I think I saw too, but I think is the very last waves, the others come only with the "twins", two b*tchs, high as hell, walking together doing instankill and sh*t..

I've been getting insta killed more than usual by banshees this week. good to know my streak will go on.

I swear the instakill rate has gone up for them...

Anyway, does anyone know how many phantoms were actually killed in the last operation?  

Personally find Banshees easier than phantoms...

[AdmLancel]

I have played gold repeatedly with Reapers and I've never seen more than 2 Banshees on the screen at one time. I've seen 8 Banshees in a single wave, but never more than two on screen at a time, I'd just kill the two and two more Banshees spawn immediately and scream from across the map. I find it more believable that you saw two Banshees, missiled them, then had the misfortune of two more Banshees instantly spawning very near to your current position.

I have seen Banshee pairs spaced so close together that it does seem like they were all four on the map at once, but I really think they just spawned close by.

it's a simple mathematical inevitability;

1. there are more phantoms than banshees spawning in one game
2. we, ps3 community included, killed 1.5 million phantoms last time
3. therefore we cannot kill 3 million banshees this weekend

That's leaving some large assumptions, like that everyone played against Cerberus, and that all spawned Phantoms were killed.

Personally Banshees are much easier to kill than Phantoms. Banshees let you know they're coming from a mile away, are a much larger target, and move in slower, more predictable ways.

Speaking of instakill has anyone been sucked into a banshees gravitational pull yet while moving away from them? It kinda sucks...

WTB jumbo equip packs to stock up again T_T

[DarkAbsolution]

Hmmm. 23M matches played since release. 63 days. That's around 350k matches per day on average. It's a weekend op, so maybe 500k matches per day. 3 days, 3m banshees, that's easily doable. It's also why I strongly doubt the 1.5m total phantom figure from last op.

[Kirrahe Airlines CEO]

Well time to make some roast Banshees.

[Kamui312]

Gold reapers. Probably about 20+ banshees through 11 rounds

Moving away from them???  HA.  I've gotten instakilled in the middle of charging away from them.  If you're a krogan, you're pretty much screwed if you let one get near you.  You dont accelerate fast enough.  They can grab you in the middle of heavy melee (as a dodge tactic), and in the middle of a charge (even the BM isn't safe).

I will be playing my DA all weekend.  I've never been instakilled by a banshee as my drell Adept if I knew there was one even remotely near me.  And even when the sneak up on me, the Drel Adept seems to have the best shot at not getting grabbed mid dodge.

I will be looking for Justicars to play with this weekend.  Warp bubble is the ultimate Banshee killer.  The poor things don't stand a chance against the holy trinity of adepts.
