what does "squadgoal: promote 3 charakters" mean?
do i have to join a game with 3 others and everyone in this "group" has to promote three chars at once to fulfill the squad goal?

"charakters"?  What are those?  (this question is on par with your question, imo)

[OhPa2]

They're listening, they're really listening!!!

A high chance of a rare weapon in Victory Packs? So still nothing to care about for myself and many others who have had all the non-N7 weapons for weeks.

The thought of Banshees on FBWGG runs does tickle me though. Actually makes me glad we failed the last community goal. LOL

[cronshaw]

Can we get a conformation of the dates and times? Last op the dates and times here were different than those on the Bioware blog.

[Thunderbird_74]

I'm out of town most of the weekend so playing time will be minimal but I have the 20's to make the promotions. I knew holding onto them would be a good idea.

A bet's a bet.

We all know it's coming, I don't see how a trailer matters here. The important thing is they're making it.

I'm well aware they've been making it for a while, that doesn't change the bet that if they don't give us a date by this friday at 4pm GMT that I will remove myself from the community. as my above comment shows, a bet's a bet, if they don't then I'll go, and you won't have to worry about tolerating me any more, if not, then I'll stick around.

Will have a full roster to push on Friday night. Sentinel's hovering on the high end of 19, Adept's on 17. Everything else is at 20.

A big thanks to Bioware for making the Victory pack worth something, and for keeping the "side story" of the operations interesting and cohesive.

[joker_jack]

This will put my n7 over 400 this weekend. Banshee with my geth hunters will be ok as long as the invincible enemy glitch stays away.

[XPMUser]

meh I already maxed all rare weapons

[snk575]

if we get awesome things like banshees with other factions then why dont we fail more ofter... he he.

GIGITY GIGITY GOOOOOOO 

Although wouldnt it be nice if they (i.e cerberus or geth) started attacking the banshee, even though they should run away with fear

[1490]

Ah, seriously? I JUST promoted ALL of my characters. Oh well

You're already going to get an ultra rare with the commendation pack....

Promotionals and ultra rares are 2 different things

yeaah.. but most people have all their rares maxed out and only need ultra's so an ultra rare out of a victory pack would be very nice.

Sorry, it is not logical to conclude that "most people have all their rares maxed out". Assuming the RNG gods are with you and ony PSPs are unclocked, it would, at best, take some 7,000,000 credits to do that (or you could be very rich). With a farming approach and assuming you promote, I struggle to see how all rares would be maxed below an N7 of 500 and if other packs are unlocked, or character cards unclocked, it could be N7 1,000 or more before all are unclocked. 

I would estimate only 5% of players, at best, have all their rares maxed. Just look at the leaderboard - many posters here will be right up the top.

I can understand this misunderstanding because the BSN attracts more accomplished (a.k.a. Elite) gamers to post, so more players appear maxed and so the perception is that this is true of most players.

What's going on here is a bit like the 'False-Consensus Effect': http://en.wikipedia....onsensus_effect

How wrong you are.  N7 120 here, all common, uncommon, rare, mods, and characters maxed.

Bump that victory pack up to a definite rare, high chance of ultra rare and it will be perfect!

edit: just re-read it, seems that FBWGG is going to be royally screwed over by banshees when people are going to want to farm the hell out of it to get a vorcha when the dlc lands. Almost feel sorry for the non-forum users that will quickly close the weekend operation pop-up, jump into a game and come face to face with a banshee and atlas/prime double team

You realize A: people playing differently than you, in a way Bioware has already said is legit doesn't affect you, right?  B: the "banshees with other stuff" is *only for the event weekend*.  Not forever.  C:  Most people that are prepping for the DLC have already farmed up tons of credits in anticipation of release anyway.

[OhPa2]

I was actually saving up my characters thinking an event including promotions might be the case this time around. Lucky guess.

Thank you Chris and all the folks at Bioware for doing a weekend event like this.

* I'm going to have play a little Vanguard to promote all six classes. That should prove hilarious.

Sexbag.

To everyone in this topic posting something along the lines of "LOL @ W/G/G farmers, can't wait to see the banshees get you!":

Banshees are even less of a threat when using the FBW farming tactic than the Geth enemies are, owing to the fact that they can't get over the desk that everybody hides behind during the match. This isn't going to make the tiniest bit of difference to anyone who farms that setup.

They're not going to be as screwed as you guys seem to think.

Just try playing Reapers with FBW farming tactic.

[Paragon Soldier]

Funny, I had every class at level 20 on Monday and I promoted all of them, I even joked that an operation like this would come up after I promoted them, oh well, time to get busy.

[Chris Priestly]

I've seen a few people ask and the Operation Shieldwall will begin at 5pm PST on Friday.

Plan your characters accordingly.

[PossibleCabbage]

Hooray, I've got this one in the bag. I've already promoted 12 characters in the past 10 days (2 sentinels, 4 adepts, 5 engineers, 1 infiltrator.) This is a "squad goal" I can do!

[Hiero Glyph]

Wow, everyone is making it sound like FBWGG is going to be difficult now that there is a chance a Banshee could spawn. Seriously?! Just rocket her and be done with it. As there is a small chance she will spawn it's not like it will matter when she eventually does. Many in this thread have no idea what they are talking about if they think that a Banshee or two will even matter. Typical for these forums I guess.

Assuming you've been playing ME3 regularily since release day, all your rares should be unlocked.  Unless you're doing it wrong and not making enough credits to buy the packs.  I had all my rares maxed prior to Resurgence and then it only took me about a week to max all my Resurgence weapons.  And I don't play all day, everyday.  Now I'm playing about once a week, if that.  It won't take me long to max whatever new DLC weapons get released considering they'll be the only unlocks I need other than ultra rares.

Are you not playing very often?  Not playing gold (for max credit reward)?  Even with character cards screwing me fairly often, maxing my rares wasn't all that difficult.

EDIT: I should add, my N7 rating has been 360 for a while now and kinda has nothing to do with my unlocks (I don't understand the implication that N7 rating relates to rare weapon unlocks).

EDIT-EDIT: I should also add that I haven't spent any real money on packs.

Can't speak for adrest4, but I primarily play bronze, occasionally silver, and almost never gold.  I have been playing since release, but, well...
