so if i read this right, once you have all character appearances you will not get any more rare character cards?  If this is true then why am I still getting character cards?

COMMON character cards still drop even if they are maxed out And IIRC they give 60K EXP now instead of 12K

In case of Uncommon/Silver Characters

Let's say you have a Turian Soldier with maxed out customization options (lights, pattern, ect)
You were supposed to get another Turian Soldier CC. Instead, you get an uncommon (lv.3) ammo now. If you were supposed to get another Silver character that you haven't maxed out, you would still get that.

In case of Rare/Gold Characters

Let's say you have a Krogan Soldier with maxed out customization options (lights, pattern, ect)
You were supposed to get another Krogan CC. Instead, you get an rare (lv.4) ammo now. If you were supposed to get another Gold character that you haven't maxed out, you would still get that.

Why the heck would you want a CC that only gives EXP over a consumable?

Because I don't need to use consumables maybe? :huh:
So at this point I prefer to have the chance to level up a class to level 6 without wasting at least 40 minutes in 2 silver matches since I can't play more than 2 hours a day. :wizard:

Holy crap. I didn't think Bioware would ever do this. I might actually play Rebellion now.

I played it the day it was released, got a crapload of cards I'd already maxed, and realized at that point that I was done with ME3 MP as it was and I haven't touched it since.

I just checked mine too

It gives 60K

I think you need to right click the ME3 icon on origin and select "check for updates" or whatever the Xbox360 equivalent is

Amazing, Truly amazing. They bring great change, one that everybody wanted, and now you ask to remove this
fix because of what? You lvl up with character cards and only play one class?

Millafan4526 wrote...

I never wanted the change and was voiciferous in that regard

so when you say "everybody" you mean "some people"

I, too, never wanted them to remove the rare character cards because of this:

jgcasa wrote...

Who would want start bronze or silver because you have a level 1 character ?

I did, however, recognise that there was a significant portion of the player base to whom the continued dropping of character cards was useless because they don't promote their level 20 characters.

Consequently, I argued for for a system to be implemented where character cards would still drop for characters that weren't maxed but that would be replaced with something else if the class was already at level 20.

This is not because I only play one class and level the others up with character cards, but rather because I play all the classes to level 20 and, after promoting them, I want to be able to play my adept as an adept, my engineer as an engineer, my sentinel as a sentinel, my infiltrator as an infiltrator, my soldier as a soldier and my vanguard as a vanguard.... not have to play all of them for one game as a glass cannon with a BFG with only a slight variation between them caused by having a couple of powers at level one.

There are several ways in which things could be changed from the current system to accomodate both camps and I find it disappointing that many players, on both sides of the argument, aren't willing to recognise the fact that neither approach to playing the game is wrong, that it's purely down to personal preference and that the right solution would be for Bioware to implement a change that works for both.

that was from buying a RECRUIT pack.. 60K exp

if you really want to level up that much just buy recruit packs. Your net EXP will be much greater than from buying Spectre packs

Each gold run gives you 70K. You can buy 14 recruits. Each has a very high chance of a character pack.

I'm sure that's much preferable than wasting 60K and getting only one gold character card that gives 120K exp

But recruit packs only give level 1 equipment and have zero chance of pulling an ultra rare weapon.

Players who actually choose to use the promotion system should not have to sacrifice their chance of getting better equipment to level up their promoted characters a little bit.... just like non-promoters should not have suffered getting character cards for their level 20 classes.

Non-promoters got a change they were looking for... and I'm happy for them. I even argued that the system should be changed so that character cards didn't drop for classes at level 20, so I'm not asking for it to be changed back.

I'm asking for the system to accomodate both ways of thinking without unfairly penalising either camp.

Is it really too much to ask for all you 'level 20 for life'rs to reciprocate now the boot is on the other foot?

1. I don't buy Spectre packs any more... ever. In my opinion, they are bad value compared to Premium Spectre Packs, particularly in regards to UR drops.

2. That system still has me getting some level 1 equipment I likely won't use. This wouldn't bother me so much if it was the only drawback, but...

3. It also has me sacrificing some of my chances to level up my Ultra Rare weapons, and they are hard enough to get as it is without dropping my chances further.

4. I guess the answer to my question is "yes" then.... at least in your case. So much for 'live and let live'.

Hello everyone. Unfortunately I'm not very happy about this change. I, like others,prefer to get character cards, instead of rare ammo. After having promoted my 6 classes, with the money earned, I buy Specter Premium pack to bring back to a decent level my characters, then to start again. Of course with the hope of getting even upgrades N7 weapons.
One of my friends tried the deforming ammo IV, but he was not happy.He felt that the bullets were better level 1. Maybe its efficacy does not justify their price.......imho

A possible solution could be to maintain the old Specter Premium pack with character cards and add,at the same price (99000 credits),another package (e.g. Specter Ammo Premium pack) with the same opportunity to obtain weapons N7 but the only option to get the rare ammo instead of the rare character cards

I'm sorry for my bad english! :)

It all depends on your current inventory and needs, and with your manifest you could basically economize your chances now. If you have most of the weapons and gear already, then you could basically target your purchases and chances now... level 2 consumables are found in vet packs with 1 level 3. Spectres give all level 3 with 1 level 4 / weapon possibility, and PSP gives all level 3s, 2 level 4s/ weaponry.

Every once in awhile you get a goose egg in a character card if its not maxed... but if those options are, you don't see the card at all, again, making what you recieve better than what was previous. I spent 1 million creds so far under this system and with this purchase order as it is, no longer have to deal with the crabshoot in the Jumbo equipment packs... really... does anyone need or use level 1 equipment now? You should slap the hand of the player which purchases the recruit pack... seriously, play 2 bronze games...

The change doesn't mean you'll always get something you don't have. What it means is that instead of redundant character cards you 'would' have gotten, in place is something that's more useful than that.

You could actually play the game to get your character level back up. Which cost you no credits for that... and makes your game mechanics better for the challenge. This also makes your gain more credits because now as you play more to level your characters after you promote... you get paid for it.
Doubt that at any time level one bullets are better than level 4 or even 3 bullets. The effectiveness of the gear also falls on how he has his character built, his weaponry mods, and his gear... It is only effective as the person using it.

I personally don't want to see a character card given equal standing as an UR weapon... or even a rare weapon... simply to max out your experience in characters and not to max out the options of the character appearance? gear and consumables are more helpful on gold

if you are a bad player, yes.
and...I'm not an "elite" that can solo gold, but I learnt to play gold with random and learnt to not waste cosumable because people rage quits or connection fails, or they don't use rockets, medigel at the right time.
consumables are for sissies.
