Interesting challenge. Everyone using classes that otherwise are seldom equipped was fun and refreshing.

Don't worry, just wait a day or 2 and if you still don't see your commendation pack, get in touch with EA support, they will add it back for you. I've had to do this for all the past operations except the very first one. Its frustrating to have to do this after every weekend event but I don't think its going to get fixed.

To be honest i am really disappointed in this game anymore, get all excited over the weekend to do these events only to be let down on tuesday. I don't see the point in playing any more when your victory packs are a glorified jumbo pack and the commendation pack gives you a weapon you don't even play with on any character. The nerfs, the changes (good and bad IMO) fix the bugs, here is a simple fix for example (people who play often have a ton of thermal clips take them out of spectre and premium spector packs) I truely feel like the people who are making the game are really not playing the game. If someone has 70 smg rail amp 3's and 80 rail amp 2's along with just as many rail amp 1's why give them a hurricane? This game is lacking a veteran reward, I realize n7 rank does not mean alot but with a n7 rating over 6000 it is safe to say i have not come to this conclusion in a short amount of time.

I found this event to be very frustrating. The matchmaking system is a bit frustrating already, and is one of the places where the multiplayer experience doesn't feel polished.

This event was bad because it accidentally shined a bright light on some of the weaknesses of ME3's match making system:

I played for several hours both Saturday and Sunday in pursuit of the squad goal at bronze, silver, and gold and only managed to get into one match where all four players had the right races. We only got a partial extraction, but I hope that counts.

I played numerous matches where a disconnect or player quit would insert a random class that presumably invalidated the run.

The lobby experience was frustrating. With a PUG of 4, none of whom are using mics, it's hard to communicate that a class change is needed. This led to a lot of kicking, which really sucks. Even without getting kicked, the random disconnects and failed matchmaking attempts cause a lot of time spent staring at loading screens. It's also not fun to sit in the lobby and wait for players of the right race, and I saw a lot of people drop because they couldn't wait long enough to find the right 4th player.

All told, I think I spent more time in lobbies and staring at loading screens than I did playing the game.

Based on this, a few suggestions:

If you're going to have squad challenges that require specific character classes (I'm all for it), the lobby system needs to be either much faster or more flexible. The loading screens are very slow, and the current lobby system (along with random disconnect) causes them to happen far more often than they should.

It would be nice to see tighter integration between the game and the event weekends. Others have mentioned ideas like progress meters for goals. Take it further and provide a way for players to actively opt-in to the campaign, or provide additional game modes where the lobby enforces constraints on class/race/level/whatever and attempts to optimize player mix. If I opt-in to the campaign, I want to know when I hit my personal or squad goal.

The whole system needs far better support for xbox live parties. I've had a few occasions where my lobby filled before the people in my party got past their loading screens, so my friends would get booted with a "match full" message. It's also not at all obvious whether party chat is public or private, which leads to a lot of confusion for new players who are trying to bring friends into the game. If I'm in a party, I want to be able to talk to the person in that party privately, but play with additional, publicly-recruited players. It would be even better to provide to ability to switch between both party and public comms with a visual indicator for the current mode. In my experience, people rarely use voice chat in the game unless they are playing with a friend.

I'm sure none of this stuff is easy, but there's a good enough foundation to build a truly excellent coop game. I've now poured easily 3x more time into multiplayer than I did on an intentionally-lengthy single player experience, which means it's already pretty great. Thanks for the hard work that produced such a great game.

What our team did was to change the lobby to private when all savages were accounted. That would prevent that after a disconnect/bailing out of any squadmate, another pug wont ruin your run by dropping in with the wrong race/class.

Got a very crappy Victory pack... level 1 cryo bullets twice, level 1 shield thing, some weapon amps for weapons I never use, and a upgrade for my Phoenix Vanguard, whooo, I can turn on his lights now -_-

Commendation pack was crappy too, Crusader (I never use shotguns) and a sniper rifle amp I never use...

to all who are complaining about the victory pack not including an n7..

maybe, just maybe, Bioware is the party that is keeping track of the stats on a week to week basis. maybe they realize how difficult the community challenge for that weekend is over the players of the game who have no way of knowing legitimately; for this reason they might not give out an bonus n7 weapon for people to literally just play the game. (Kill troopers? so challenging!)

I personally enjoyed this weekends challenge. Many people were playing the right characters and if they weren't I just (I know it's crazy) messaged them to inform them. If we couldn't get 4 people we just closed the lobby and played from there.

I have a complaint.. BW, can you post as many updates as possible on your blog so I don't have to search the forums and read witless complaints? There are justified complaints on this board but they are few and far between.

Can anyone from Europe (Specifically the U.K) confirm that they received their commendation pack?

I just checked the store and was only able to redeem my Victory Pack.

yeah, again ... sigh -.-

I complete the conditions the first day like usual.  No pack so I have to get on chat w/ an EA person .... every frigging time.  I just don't feel like doing it again - it will probably another level for the Kishok and some exp for a human adept again anyway.

Why are you people complaining? How many other games give you this much for free? Be happy with what you've got and if you're not then go play something else and leave the game to us who enjoy it and all it has to offer
