It's just past 3:30 in PST, so unless they switched the time, you're both wrong. Sorry, but you have about 2.5 hours to wait.


Yes, because Bioware is notorious for keeping to a strict schedule. 


Are you trying to say they are notoriously EARLY?  ...Because that would be news to me.  Otherwise, stick to my original comment.

I got the splash screen just now, but since I'm not sure if this signifies the event started already, so I'll just wait until later to play. Do some work for a couple hours.

Also, not many others are online and I don't feel much like playing Public games right now :P

You'll get a special image and text while opening MP after the mission beggins.


Maybe one does not have the game available right at this moment and wanna ask here if it has started before changing location to go play... :)


We on the PS3 must use the force, as we get no splash screen, in order to know when it begins...

*disclaimer: Unless it's been fixed recently

I got the in screen thing telling me it started, that is why I am saying that it has started. :)

When it comes to starting the weekend events, yes, they have started most of them a couple of hours early or so.

And yes, this event has started, at least for me on PC here in Sweden.
But as far as I know, the starting time for these are global and cross-plattform, so should'ev started for everyone by now.

Got the screen here as well. I'm going to assume that it has started.

Cool beans, early start. I wish the ps3 got the splash screen. Don't guess anyone could screen capture it, so we ps3 people can live vicariously through pics? lmao!

The Commendation and Victory Packs will be giving a guaranteed N7 weapon. The N7 weapons that have the N7 in the name- N7 Valiant, N7 Crusader, N7 Eagle, or N7 Hurricane.


It's going to be the promotional N7 weapons in both packs. But I want an ultra rare and not promotional for my victory pack if we get it. They're pretty much giving us 2 commendation packs with different names. <_<


I don't see a problem.

I Still have yet to receive the valiant, and I want to level up the crusader. The cusader my vorcha soldier will be using this weekend when I get everyone who plays with me the squad goal completion.

for the personal goal does the game has to have a retrieval objective?

No  It just has to be silver or gold, at least one team member using a new character, and at least one person is extracted.

A new point of clarification:

Operation Mastiff must be completed on Silver OR BETTER. So Gold completions do count.

Just so you (who like a tougher challenge) know. :)



:devil:


Right, so the personal (or "squad") goal has to be completed on Silver or better. Got it, no problem.

But when you say that Operation Mastiff must be completed on Silver or better, does that mean all of the retrievals for the Community goal as well? If so, this might be a little tricky.

Damn I managed to unlock only one of the Rebellion characters an Ex-Cerberus Vanguard. Hopefully that helps me out on Silver and don't kick because of being a Vanguard.

I got the mission screen as well, who cares if it started early. Oh no more time to complete. Just hope they count what I just did. Not worried about me but I helped like 6 people on this site complete the personal objective. I'll feel bad if they don't get their packs.

The Novaguard and the Phoenixguard are two very different beasts.  The Ex-Cerberus works much better with other biotic classes and even cooperatively with tech classes that catch what you throw around the field.

That would be an ultra-rare not an N7 weapon. Stop mixing them up >.>

Ultra rares have an N7 band on them. Everyone knows that.

Nail a mob that's airborne thanks to lash with throw. It takes some damned good timing and knowledge of how to arc your projectiles, but my god the payoff is worth it, especially if phoenix player took the DoT evolution of lash. Extra extra bonus points if you're a human sentinel and specced out for maximum force on throw and have on your power damage equipment (to the best of my knowledge, HS's have the strongest possible throw in the game).

I've comboed an enemy so hard that way they clipped out before it registered the kill in the log.

Exactly my point. Last event started early, too. Did a silver run and extracted with Squishy Lolguard, and I'm out of medigel. Guess it's back to bronze to buy jumbo packs for a while.

 Does anyone notice that when you play Silver only 1/3 of the game are retrieval?

Still haven't gotten my splash screen, so I'm kinda wondering whether it has started or not for me.

Allied Goal: Complete 100K  retrieval missions.
Personal Goal: Extraction on Silver difficulty with one squad member of the Rebellion Pack classes: Vorcha, Phoenix Project Defectors, or Quarian Male.
Special Circumstance: None.
 
Completion of the personal goal awards that player a Commendation Pack.
Completion of the allied goal awards all players a Victory Pack that has a guaranteed N7 weapon.

Operation Mastiff begins at 6pm PST Friday June 8 and ends at 4am PST Monday June 11
Packs will be distributed Tuesday Evening if the mission is successful.


:devil:

Why do you list the times as PST instead of PDT?
