Maybe they'll boost the number of Banshees significantly this weekend just to help us out. Right now, it just seems to me that there simply aren't enough Banshees per match (even on Gold) for this to seem like a viable goal.

Hmmm 3 million banshees aint happening. considering we get about double amount of phantoms / game compared to banshees. 3 million ravagers could be doable, but considering we barely got 1,5 mil phantoms. so that would require quadruple effort(not to mention the rockets we use) to kill the banshees. And reaper missions atleast for me are the most boring, as despite being challenging they have the most monotone tactics... Run for the spec ops team. atleast geth and cerberus use varying tactics in trying to keep take us down... and i am not kidding here, i once dozed off of boredom during a 5th consecutive silver match against reapers(it was random -.- ffs, and 5 times the boring enemy ZZZzzzZZZzzz)

increase the amount of banshees and you risk making the reapers un appealing atleast on silver and gold for a lot of people, as people rather would finish the mission than kill a few more banshees and get a wipe.

What happens if the community doesnt make 3 million banshees but your squad still makes the squad achievement? Do you lose both rewards?

In ten rounds (+extraction) on Gold you run into at least 15 banshees per game. That's >3,000 complete gold playthroughs per hour this weekend.

it is impossible to fail the community challenge...

BioWare had kept track of our records...and they know we kill more than 3 million banshees per weekend...so they throw this challenge too see how many banshee we can kill on the weekend....

im assuming we will kill more than 12 million banshees by the end ofthe weekend...

I bet the folk at BW will have a laugh on our expense when they release a statement saying:

'Aw, sorry N7 troopers only 2 983 645 banshees fell this weekend, if only you had bothered with the remaining 18k you would have all gotten 3 URs now that Jumbos are permanent. Oh well, better luck next time. Hackett out!'

It can be done

As far as I know, headshotting a Banshee does nothing special.

And I suppose it's possible that they might have upgraded the rewards.

Since when?

My Widow X with Incendiary ammo disagrees.

Oh, try aiming sometimes.

I'd post the Fry not sure if troll or just stupid picture, but I dont think it's worth the effort in this case. 

Just because you imagine yourself doing more damage to a banshee with a headshot doesnt mean you are.

This is the Banshee numbers on gold...

4 banshees on wave 3 or 4
6 banshees on wave 5 or 6
8 banshees on wave 7 or 8
10 banshees on wave 10
15 banshees on extraction wave *we wont be able to kill them all but they are there*

there are actually 10 banshees on wave 10 *6 right from the start and then in groups of 2 as we take more time to hack/deactivate/kill*...but its is in this wave where we use the Cobra Missile launcher...so we probably kill 2 or 3 in one shot...

on wave 11 there are 15 banshees...but the most we get to kill are 4...

i have given up on making an effort for the community goals. The victory packs are garbage and not worth the effort. Im just going to work for my commendation pack and call it a day. Unless bioware wants to give us something worth working for i dont see a point.

Agreed.

just throwing it out there what if the victory pack gives you early access or a pre-unlock for the one of the vorcha classes ( as they were mentioned in the post )

im pretty sure the Victory pack will never be more than just a disappointment...but if it does give you a new character...i might be really happy

Hmm, I assumed that they just tossed the Vorcha comment into the event announcement as a teaser. I dont think they would do that though, since theyd be cutting into their own micro-transaction sales by giving everyone a free Vorcha.

You gotta bear in mind for the number of people that have stopped playing ME3 multiplayer, we also  have the PS3 crowd contributing now too.

squad goal is gonna be easy, but considering that you'll only see 8-10 banshees per game - even on gold - killing 3,000,000 banshees is gonna be pretty damn tough.

8-10 banshees on gold?? You get 8-10 on silver. You get at LEAST 20 on gold. Sometimes more if the spawns are being cruel. 

Well you could just delay the missions on wave 3, 6 and 10 and kill banshees when they spawn, so you get a ton of banshees.

Victory packs don't give us anything anyways. Just complete the squad goal and don't bther with community goal ..... Commendation pack is the only 1 that matters.

It's a moot point anyway since no one in their right mind would spend time doing that.

ment more like a single vorch soldier 1 card ( will still need to wait for the DLC to use it ) and there are still four more appearance options needed for him and 5 other classes to unlock yet ... not to mention the geth pistol (just assuming there is one coming) and what ever other weapons they are tossing out there

It seems like there's a lot more banshee corpses than 10 when I play reaper gold.

I know what you meant. My point still stands though. People are paying real life money for packs to have chances to get the new characters and weapons, and its not likely that Bioware would cut into those sales by giving away the very thing people are paying to have a chance to get.
