 ...What's the consequence. On these "Kill ## Banshees/Phantoms/Brutes, etc" it makes sense. BW is going to throw more of them at you. But what could they possibly do to punish us for this? (Even though I think it's unlikely that we don't complete the goal) The only thing I could think of is to push back the DLC date or to make three player matches instead of four.

Don't worry man. We got this.

I think it would actually be impossible to fail this challenge.

[Sovereign24]

To answer your question, suspend the ability for players to promote for a period of time?

You'll feel bad and lose 1000 karma points.
They'll probably slash xp/credits or something like that.
Or perhaps they'll remove JEP's and PSP's

Yeah, I think it'll be easy. But the only reason we failed last weeek was because they bumped it from one mil to three. Surely they'll do something similar to one of these challenges eventually.

That wouldn't be much of a punishment.

Except if you want to respec and you're out of reset power cards or something.

[Moonphos87]

I dunno what will happen... maybe...

...The banshees we failed to eliminate the last Operation attacks the training facilities, slaughtering and converting the trainees into new enemy factions...

YAY! Rebellion has new faction for us to pewpew!

... ... ... ...

I don't know...

Well after reading this off of the page description The Reapers are targeting our training centers, and your mission is to
draw their fire and attention. Put them on the defensive! Buy us time,
and the reinforcements in training will soon back you up.

My thoughts would be that if you fail the mission (I won't be able to join you I have exams that are a 4 hour train ride away from my Xbox) that there will probably be a significant decrease in the % chance of drawing a new character from packs. It would make logical sense to me if they Reapers are targeting your training centers and killing your recruits off and you fail to draw them away there are going to be less recruits to go around right? So less chance of drawing New character cards. (I still reckon you will get spammed with Character cards just not Cerberus or Vorcha)

When we did the first promotion event, the following event was a bonus exp event. So clearly failing this one would give us a hit to exp for the following event.

[tallinn]

The alliance will take what we have if we fail to promote. All player profiles will be reset. Then we have to get all our beloved chars back to lvl 20.

[Zhuinden]

Yeah, that would seem reasonable.

So many people would be pissed.

[Radio Moscow]

We ain't gunna fail this one.

Enjoy Banshee's in firebase white, geth gold while you're promoting your characters.

It's easy folks, embrace that sweet, sweet N7 ranking.

[Blissey1]

Clearly, they just won't give us the dlc. Gonna have to wait till the next operation to earn it!

[ZachNyeScienceGuy]

They'll reset our N7's back to 0. lol I have a feeling we're gonna fail, with everyone playing Diablo 3, Max Payne 3, and Ghost Recon, the player base isn't as large as it once was.

[SarcasticXL]

Operation Shieldwall has failed. Our training camps have been hit hard and casualties are a-plenty. Due to these unforseen circumstances, The Alliance is going to need additional resources, medical supplies and manpower.
Im deeply sorry to inform that the new DLC pack will now cost money. 10 dollah

[Poison_Berrie]

We won't fail this one.

But I think people should consider that the previous challenge was set intentionally too high in order for us to fail as a set up/connection for the upcoming DLC and this week's challenge.

Since when did gamers have to worried about being punished for not doing what a retailer wanted us to do..............I graduated high school already lol. I understand it makes the game more challenging but to some of us who have jobs, kids, class, and dare I say a life, we can't always keep up with these operations. This is literally the first game I've ever played online with and actually enjoyed but if I'm going to start getting punishment for making a made up goal why play lol?

[Theghostof_timmy]

It's impossible for us to fail. Even farmers and leaderboard watchers will be contributing this time, and since the Individual goal contributes to the overall goal, everybody who doesn't give a rat's ass about victory packs will still be contributing for the sake of their commendation packs.

Its not really a punishment like they are going to come to your house and kick your dog and put hair in the shower drain.  How many people are complaining about Banshees randomly spawning?  Most posters here have thought it was pretty cool.  More of a new challenge than a punishment.

[Prawny]

Wasn't the last promoting allied goal like 2,000,000 promotions? We absolutely smashed it, whatever it was.

[Bladesong013]

If the end result of continued failing of operations was mixing of enemy types so that any and all could appear in any game, I'm sure that the vast majority of players would intentionally fail just to make that happen. That's not a punishment, that's a damn reward. XD

[Gaploon]

I suspect that the punishment would be less money and/or XP per game for little time No DLC delay (little too much don't you think?) and resetting everyone’s N7 to 0 is not fair to community because someone's don't care about operation weekends at all.

If we fail you will no longer be able to see the character levels, N7 rank, or loadouts of your team members. This will send lobbys into complete meltdown as many players will not be able to cope with the fact that they may be playing with new, inexperienced, and badly equipped players

The forums will be awash with traumatic posts such as:

I thought I'd made a new friend, a really nice AA, and then she pulled out a sniper rifle - I feel dirty

and

I got beaten by a Lvl 2 Soldier but I really think he was lying and is level 20

or

Then on wave 7 someone asked on the mic "Whats a biotic explosion anyway"?

Dark days my friends, dark days

[XCPTNL]

If we fail we have a 100% chance that every card in every pack will be a character card. So not too big of a change

[Gmang23]

-XX% xp gain i would guess
