I got like 10 Batarian sentinels in the first 2 weeks after the resurgence pack so I wish I could help. I got Batarian Sentinell last night in PSP it's one of my most common classes wish I could help :-D.

I think the people unhappy with this Operation are missing the point of the Operation. Someone said it earlier, the squad goal was extraction on Gold. This mission isn't just doing a bronze mission. What makes this mission harder, is unlocking the requisite character for extraction.

This challenge can be completed on any difficulty.  The challenge of a goal should not be based on a randomized system.  A "complete on gold" challenge is skill oriented.  This one is luck oriented.

People are sticking up for the "new" people and that it is "impossible" for them to finish the squad goal this week, because they are in fact SO new, that they don't even have a Vanilla Krogan.

May i remind you of the squad goal a few weeks ago where you needed a FULL extraction on GOLD?
How many BRAND new players finished THAT mission you think?

If you can't ALWAYS make the squad goal, you can still help in the community goal.

Like a Krogan once told me.."Stop Whining"

The squad goals have gotten a lot easier since they went to a biweekly format.

What is the point of this thread exactly?

The OP is being a jackass to people who were not treated well by the RNG.

Yep, pretty much this. Douchiest post I've seen in a long time, but I suppose that was the goal. ::shrugs::

[CmnDwnWrkn]

There are 7 distinct Krogan, Vorcha, and Batarian.

If you haven't unlocked ONE specific character, it's an RNG troll.

If you haven't unlocked one of these SEVEN, you haven't played enough.

I agree with OP on this one.

Mountain out of molehill, is what this thread is. If it ACTUALLY is happening to you, then fine, I have room to hear it. Otherwise, all this seems to be to me is a way to rant over a perceived problem, and one not actually affecting most of the posters.

I think i've gotten a few dozen of the Operation savage classes in just the last few hours. Oh the joys of having all your rare weapons maxed...

[RGFrog]

I'm sure this has already been pointed out, but I don't want to read 4 pages right now: You don't need any of those to play this weekend.

We still need everyone to participate in order to reach the 7million base mooks goal.

Anyone that doesn't have these characters can play for most of the weekend stacking up credits. Purchase a bunch or SP or PSP packs on Sunday and then work on the Commendation pack goal. Which quite frankly will be cake as it is one round on Bronze. 15 minutes of game time on Sunday.

I imagine the character card drop rate will be increased for the event so that peeps will be able to get at least a krogan soldier card.

I believe you are mistaken.  Community goal requires all savage team as well.

Also, N7 only awarded in commendation pack.

I don't think it's a problem to unlock one of three races if you play some time during weekend.

The weekend event shouldn't be limited to people who have "played enough". It should be open to everyone who wants to participate. Sorry if that shrinks your epeen.

While I understand your frustration, take a moment and think about this. Bioware made the event, they obviously knew not every player would meet the requirements for the squad goal. So this is on purpose, and I believe the purpose is to get people including you and new players to play more and BUY more packs. As silly as that sounds, this is the way they designed multiplayer, and they are fully aware of this. I don't think they ever intended for the squad goal to be easy or to be completed by everyone, hence the prize you get for it. Best of luck getting your character to complete the goal man.

Victory pack for this one doesn't care what you're playing as long as you're killing basic mooks.  Commendation pack does, and hopefully they'll up the drop rate for the people that don't have any of the required classes unlocked.

[Siansonea]

This isn't my idea originally, but I think they should offer a Savage Pack at the beginning of the event that is guaranteed to have the Krogan Soldier character card, for people who don't have one of these characters and who just want to start doing the goal. For people who do have one, it's just an upgrade to their Krogan Soldier. Easy solution, right?

Maybe im just being thick but ive never understood how you could be missing ANY of the characters let alone two that were there from the start ive had every character within two day of them being released and i dont even stockpile credits or buy packs i farm occasionally but if im playing for fun ill play silver and bronze i mean its not hard to save up 60 70k in credits and get a spectre pack or wait another round and get a psp i get at least one character with every pack so yes OP is right if you dont have one of the seven barring extreme newbies or mega rng troll you havent played enough

You are exactly right, this is their goal.  Pushing people to play more is fine.  However, holding part of the game out of players reach to encourage them to spend money on microtransactions is a dangerous practice that could seriously hurt gaming in the long run.  Good for companies, yes, but bad for players and creativity in the industry.

Why shouldn't extreme newbies and mega rng trolled players have a shot at participating, though? Extreme newbies are new players, and we want new players, right? Mega rng trolled players have suffered enough at the hands of the stupid Store, haven't they?

Exactly.  Making the challenge available to everyone encourages sustained play.

I don't think it's unfair to have a special requirement, within the context of the game, for unlocking a special weapon.  Without that, then it's basically an N7 weapon free giveaway to anyone that plays during the weekend.

Priestly twitter feed says all savage teams BOTH goals.

[xxHiDa SuFixx]

The community goal is for everyone ... the victory pack = virtual participation throphy

It's not unfair to make the commendation pack something that only some can get. I cannot imagine how someone playing since release with any bit of dedication could not have at least one of these characters. Of course it is RNG so it is possible that someone playing everyday since release doesn't yet have one ... but I highly doubt its any significant % of players.

If you have been dedicated and the RNG gods really hate you that much ... I'm sorry ... maybe next time buddy.

Friend of mine joined the ME3 multiplayer about 3 weeks ago. Plays several games a night (Silver or Bronze, he knows he wont be good enough for Gold yet).
He took part in the last challenge and did his part, dozens of pizza box missions.
And rightly so, he's maxing out the recruit and veteran packs first to rank up weapons.

You can't get the rare characters with recruit packs and there is VERY little chance of getting them with veteran packs.

Why should new players be penalized for having bad luck with the store?
He's now going to be kicked out of every game he plays this weekend due to not having one of the characters, and misses out on getting a commendation pack. That's very fair.

Mission should have been all human males or females to mix things up a bit (how many all human teams do you see in Gold? How many all geth teams do you see?) And as all players have the human characters, everyone would be able to do it.

Alternatively, Bioware should have given all players who haven't unlocked any, a free character unlock.

Very poor weekend challenge IMO.

/end rant

Who cares about new players? They don't need N7 weapons yet anyway.

If he got it 3 weeks ago ... he probably got it on sale ... tell him to stop being a cheapo and spend the $20 he saved on PSPs.
