In future, rather than just saying one Gold match, we should get a choice of either completing one gold match to get a comm pack or completing 5 silver matches for those of us that can't do gold.

agreed, from a silver regular, gold is very difficult, i will be lucky to make to wave 6


Have faith. Gold is tough, with good reason, but with the right squad members and the right tactics, it IS do-able. You just have to learn to stick together and help each other out-lone wolfs need not apply Image IPB

I've only done gold once, on accident. Got put into a FBWGG in Wave 3 when looking for a bronze with my Lvl 16 Batarian Soldier. It was intense, but we got to full extraction. Personally, I'm looking forward to the challenge and hoping I can be a contributor to the groups I pair with. I'll be hitting some PUGs....and looking to push myself!

Why do these operations only happen on weekends? There are people out there who do work or have other things to do that may keep them from playing. They really need to do operations that last a full 7 day week. That would give everyone the best chance of getting to play the game.

If they do a full week Ops, then they can simply jack up the target goals. Like this operation goal could be 1.5 million extractions for the allied goal if it was all week long.

This would be fair for most people. In particular, this operation's early end time means I can only play Friday given the things I have to do this weekend, and I wont be able to play long. But I don't think any of my ME3 friends will be on that day.


Yeah it is tough for those of use who work retail therefore we work saturdays AND sundays. I'm usually too pooped to play after.

I know the feeling. If they did make weekly operations, it may take a lot more time to get the Comm. and Victory packs to us. Plus they would have to quadruple the amount of the goals to make it equal to a weekend operation.

Allied reward is significant permanent powercreep now? =

To be fair, some players have already had this advantage (or a similar one with Cobras, Survival Packs, or Thermal Clips) since shortly after release. The really lucky ones have some of their consumables capped even higher, as high as 10 in some cases.

I am aware of this, and I think it should be removed.

Operation: Broadside begins at 10am PST on Friday July 13and ends at 10am PST on Sunday July 15.

Okay...for a competent silver player with mid-level weapons and not so competent gold player...which map would you recommend for the challenge (and why)? My biggest worry with Reapers is the ravagers...those buggers get everywhere and seem to be perfectly placed to pick you off when you fall back from a multiple Banshee or Brute attack. My only Reaper gold experience was on Firebase Hydra, and I got my ass handed to me by what seemed to be a Ravager town meeting. Not fun :-(

 I'd just like to apologise in advance to those players who'll have to continually resuscitate me for the two gold games i play before giving up. :D

I use Microsoft Windows 7 operating system on the bottom of the screen, bottom right I have the date and the time.

When you click on the time and the date the clock expands to show a bigger clock . I can then click on change date and time settings. A new window opens that allows me to change the time or date or add an additional clock or synchronize the time with the internet.

I don't know if other operating system have this system.

hope this helps some of you

Word. I use three clocks myself, one for Local ofc, one for Denmark, and another for Australian time zones. Helps me keep track of what time it is in my friends' relative time zones. Since I'm EST, the math behind figuring out Pacific is elementary too say the least.

Eh, I don't know what he's talking about. I played my very first Gold matches tonight and I did just fine without a mic. In fact out of the eight matches I played, two people used mics and they barely said anything except to call for help.

I thought gold would be this horrid nightmare but it's not, it's a lot of team work but if you have a good team it's easily beatable.

Don't need a mic to beat gold if you have eyes and a brain.

Rely on yourself and take advantage of opportunities your team creates when you see how they play. Don't rely on them to be your eyes or conform to your own playstyle.

Also helps to have a quad.

Yeah all you really need on Gold are just a few capable squad mates and any combination of enemy/map should be fine. I think Hydra will be a good map to try this on first, only have to watch for Ravagers shooting across the map. No brain squad members will definately be the frustrating part here or lagging hosts of course :P

Yep, was PuGing Gold yesterday and was able to easily get at least one or more people extracted on Random/Random. What's funny is I dropped down to Silver the last game and nearly had a wipe. Bad teammates are worse then the difficulty. They can make even Bronze hell.

Honestly, if you join a random gold match and you see your teammates dying multiple times in the first 2 waves it's best to just drop and save your consumables. It being gold you can easily die, but people shouldn't be dying from dumb things like not using cover, getting flanked by cannibals or eating a grenade that sat at their feet until blowing up.

I wish it were so Foxtrot813 but they backed themselves into some bad design which limits how they can do.

Although being part of a Squad that gets at least one member extracted on Gold is not hard to do so kinda your picture back at ya. Getting the whole squad extracted is Burce Lee along the lines of Bruce Lee telling the guy he should drop dead. Come run a "faster mile" on Gold. You'll never know until you try.

Iwon't even bother... Will not get the Com-pack anyway with EA support T_T


I let it slide last time, but if they don't do it right this time and dispense accordingly, I'll be sure to let them know.

You didn't get it. I haven't got com-packs the "normal way" since Golaith (1st oparetion). Had to contact them every single time since, and I'm really sick of it.
