Its funny that failing an op actually makes the next one better than all the others! Lets fail them all!

Why so they could use it as an excuse to push back the DLC with, "Sorry you didn't promote enough so we couldn't train enough recruits to reinforce you. Hacket out," I mean really?

Any thoughts as to why such a low number (50,000 community promotions)? The last time they had a similar challenge (Raptor) it was 2 promotions and community 150,000. (And they hit 350,000 promotions.) Why is this challenge so much lower - albeit with one extra "squad" promotion required?

Because we have one less day?

Personally, I think it would be awesome for every geth/cerberus if a pack of 3-5 (3 bronze, 4 silver, 5 gold) banshees spawned in the middle of the fray, and killed everything! (i.e. no discrimination... I'd love to see 5 banshees mow an Atlas, then come after you...)

Who would you shoot first?

Yeeeeesss exciting >:D

Edit:
question, do I promote 3 different classes (with 5 different races/characters in them) to get the squad goal?


I want to know this too. I have three classes maxed out with between 4 and 5 characters in each. Would prefer not to have to promote my Sentinels (that pesky 1pt in Tech Armour just blows my whole balance!).


Based on the description, I'm pretty sure its as simple as promoting 3 classes. It does not matter which ones - so you could do the same class three times if you want.

(edit) You cannot promote an individual character, only the class


Dang, I thought promoting a class with 4 or 5 level 20s in it would count as 4 or 5 characters promoted.

If you have a class at level 20, all the races within are level 20, so that would be meaningless. You have to promote 3 classes.

Once you promote a class, all of the characters within that class go back to level 1.  You don't lose any of your unlocked character cards, they all just go back to leve l 1.

Chris lie about next time we face the enemies we would have reinforcements. No DLC and we will face the enemy again.


"This task is an onerous one, and many of you are right to dread contact with these particular foes, but rest assured that we are prepared to reinforce your battalion with reserves. The vorcha want in, and as soon as they complete combined-arms training with our technically-skilled personnel, we will let them loose."


Let's see... As soon as they complete training... prepared to reinforce...

Yeah. I don't see any promises about a DLC release before the next operation. But people on the internet will read something and understand what they want to understand, not what was said.

Ooooh, I want FBWGG with wave 10 having 5 primes and 4 banshees. And I want it to be a hack at the top level where there's no cover. Oh, and no SE's decoy either.

I have 5 rockets :)

They punish us for setting an unrealistic goal. Oh well, it might actually make things challenging with some extra banshees.

I'm not sure I understand. Squad goal: 3 character promotions? How does that work?

Basically, you yourself have to promote 3 characters in order to receive the commendation pack. They did a similar one to this a few operations ago.


Guessing so as well, but why does the official post not say so clearly?

What happend to the "guaranteed" N7 weapon in the pack changed to "high chance of containing a Rare weapon"? :( Makes me sad...


You'd think no one has played a weekend op for this game before.

Just in case it isn't mentioned in the next 15 pages after these comments (I don't have time to check) it's always been squad goal and community goal. All that means is squad = commendation, community = victory. Just promote YOUR 3 characters and you get an N7 weapon. Yes, it's easy and it barely requires you to do anything. After gold extractions, it's a break. So just stop whining and do it.

As for the guaranteed weapon in the pack changing? No. commendation is N7. Victory NOW, UNLIKE BEFORE, has a chance to contain a rare. Something got added because of the "this victory pack sucks. Why didn't I get something awesome even though I never logged in at all this weekend" whining.

Be happy. They could just not DO any operations. LIKE EVERY OTHER MP GAME.

The entitlement this community has is soooo painful.

Thanks for doing a squad goal that's manageable for casual players who don't play on gold. (I only have one class that needs significant leveling to get the three.)

Also, why isn't this going through Monday, May 28, which is Memorial Day (a bank holiday) in the US?

Its so awesome that failing these multiplayer weekend goals actually has CONSEQUENCES. Makes you feel like it really is multiplayer for a Mass Effect game =] so cool.

But I wonder if Banshees will attack your enemies as well? Probably not seeing as how they are all practically under Reaper control supposedly.

just saying, after sanctuary reapers and cerberus are no longer allies..so if banshees spawn in different enemy waves, will they fight between them??

(of course the answers is NO, they will all focus on us(allies), but just noting it for those who take the story line deeply serious, and cant imagine cloned protheans as squadmates etc)

So...regarding the victory pack, what happens if we have all of the weapons except ultra rares maxed out, will the victory pack continue to suck?

Yeah, I was pretty excited about this. And now, they made the victory pack worth getting.

The only thing bad about this Op? I probably won't be able to play much because I'm going to visit my family at home :/
