The new characters are very viable, they just have a very different way of playing then the existing "Human" characters (the CV for instance is no NovaGuard). Playing them like the old characters won't work, you need to figure out new rhythms. Some people either don't or won't do that.

I'm not so sure we succeeded. I had 2-3 Fetch task in 20 missions. After that I was done for the weekend. If everyone else had the same experience, there is no way we accumulated enough. This, inspire of having gotten missions with multiple fetch tasks in the same missions as recently as last thursday, and was getting on average 1 fetch task per mission.

Tuesday morning!

Now we just need someone over there in Edmonton to get up early, hit the Tim's drive-thru so they're fully caffeinated, and tell us if we won!

I'm hoping to see a VP and CP when I get home from work (and subsequently a Hurricane IV)!

only 2/20? wow that is off even for an average... did you try switching lobbies for every one of them? some of the missions even gave me 2 deliveries in the same game...
and you are right about the phoenix players, their whip animation leaves them vulnerable to get shot in the process so a new careful tactic must be taken with them.

I must have taken part in at least 20 retrieval jobs over the weekend; most missions had at least one in them.

Firing with the Eagel isn't that bad, controlled bursts will serve you well & firing from the hip. I still can't aim the Hurricane though

Are the packs out yet and did we make it?

I wonder this myself.  I had very few fetch missions.  The ones I had went great, but they are actually few and far between. 

I would like ot see the Devs look into beefing up the number of 'fetch missions' if those are our objectives for the weekend - it would help us immensely.

Other than that, I am enjoying playing the new characters.  I do not have them all down pat yet, except the Vorcha soldier - and they are a lot of fun.

not for another 10 hours minimum for the packs and im pretty confident we made it i done 28 games over the weekend all with the pizza delivery mission...

[buthane22]

I hope we did it. I played about 20-25 games last weekend and did about only 5-6 pizza delivery.

[Slojack]

Fri night=Lots of deliveries
Sat=less deliveries
Sun=only had two.
Seemed to me the farther the weekend got along, the less the retrieval missions populated.

I had total opposite luck.

Fri night = operation started after I went to bed
Saturday = very few
Sunday = almost every match had at least one

[superligerzero]

Pretty much every mission I did was silver or gold.

[Skullheart]

so, did we fail?

[JMC002]

Patience.

 Victory should be an Ultra-Rare IMO, what if somebody didn't even participate in the weekend event, but the community still completed it, he should get an N7 weapon?
I remember doing the Full Extraction on Gold with no deaths, one of the hardest things I have ever done but the N7 Eagle I got was so worth it (/sarcasm) but my friend did get a Valiant when he did, and it was satisfying as hell, but now everybody gets an N7 for doing nothing? 
I am prepared to see Crusaders and Valiants in every single game for the next while...

Although I'm looking forward to unlocking more N7 weapons, I agree with you. They probably want to keep people interested by making the rarest weapons available simply for participating, but they could also have achieved that by offering guaranteed ultra-rare weapons instead of a second N7 weapon.

What, so the "Promote X number of characters" weekends shouldn't give N7 weapons because they "didn't really earn anything"?

The fact that they added a N7 weapon to the Victory Pack is a good thing. Whether or not those who "didn't participate", the Victory Pack is not a reward for just you. It's a reward for the community for participating in the event.

I did 64 Retrievals(as in: 64 Retrieval objectives; not Extractions)  over the course of this entire weekend, all on Silver and on my Male Quarian Engineer.
By your logic, I deserve at least 3 Victory Packs. And another Commendation Pack!
Because hey, I was participating!

I love it too, but i'm hoping for something else this time around.

[BackwardsMarathon]

Would love a hurricane myself!

[Achertontem]

The entire period i had exactly 2 delivery objectives out of about 5 games a day.

[megabeast37215]

The Hurricane is the only good promotional weapon IMO so far. The Valiant was devastated by removing headshots on bosses, the Crusader isn't even as good as the Graal, not even close to the Claymore. The Eagle... well... I don't have an Eagle, and from what I read on here, I would like that to continue.

Hoping for double Hurricane.

[Kadoosh]

Out of 4 CPs I've received 4Hurricanes...Kind of hope for something different.
