Just a thought. The commendation packs give weapons that are powerful. If you are playing bronze, you don't need them yet. I know, not what people want to hear. if you are playing silver, go for it. we will help you. Shoot, I am willing to help anyone, but don't get stressed if you are not ready for gold. there will be other weekends, and you have access to weapons that are still pretty powerful in the specter packs.
That makes absolutely no sense at all. So the only people who should get powerful weapons are only the people who are good enough at playing third person shooters and do constant runs in Gold? So it’s a “Screw you.” mentality to those of us who suck at TPS games and will never be good enough to attempt Gold right?
Funny, and here I thought that getting powerful weapons would help players to even attempt to try Silver on a regular basis or even the occasional Gold one day. Go figure.
By the way, no, there wont be an endless supply of “other weekends”. As it is, to get all of the N7 weapons and max them out would take 80 weeks (40 to get them and 40 to add in the off weekend). That’s about a year and a half. I for one do not have any interest in playing this game even on these weekend events for that long. Do you, considering all the other shooter games that are on the way in that time?
-Being able to get or earn a Commendation Pack should be available to everyone, no matter what skill they can play at, not only to the elite players.

I joined a gold game on wave 3, but we managed to get full extraction by the end. Will I still get the commendation pack?

I am ticked off now.
Just finished a full extraction on gold, only to not be let into the lobby after the match was over. Gold is a big deal for me. I normally play silver and bronze.
I have no idea if it counted... and I have no idea if I'll be able to pull it off again.
When you logged-in next time, did you get the money and exprericen you got from that match. If yes, then I guess it counted.

Hi guys, a quick question.

I doubt it. For the last operation (operation Savage), you had to start from the very beginning. But I could be wrong.
Yesterday, I made full-extraction in GOLD reapers when I joined-in at wave 3. Anyway those other guys let me play 1 more match with them so I could do the match from Wave1. - to make sure.

My squad of four completed a full extraction today, fighting Reaper forces on Firebase Goddess, gaining a full extraction and a nice set of pockets jingling with 75,000 creds, not too mention 365,000 XP. The date is 14/07/2012, yet I did not receive a commendation pack.
Is the commendation pack supposed to be immediately awarded? I thought it would be awarded after the event was over?

I think Bioware send out the reawrds after a few days - usually Tuesdays

You must be new here. The Commendation Packs will be distributed on the Tuesday (or later) after the event, like with every other event so far.Arkus Eon wrote...

I'm not talking about the squad goal, where a partial will work on a gold match vs reapers.
Somebody just gave me the link.. It is FULL extraction

Did they clarify yet whether "Allied Goal: Extract 400,000 squads against Reapers on ANY difficulty" means full extraction is required?
Yes, full extraction all members.
Leave no one behind.

The worst part is that the description of the event is so vague - assuming people even read it in the first place - that most of the folks I play with don't even realise the community goal is supposed to be a Full Extraction. Ugh.

Oh no you don't! You guys cannot keep doing this every time an extraction mission comes up. Every bloody time you yank it back and forth over the Full/Not-Full line. Start using the terms you have in the game and explicitly state what qualifies.
Add a full sentece at the end of every Announcement which lists all the Extractsion types (Lone, Partial, Full) that qualify. Hell just put it in parentheses after the word Extraction. For example the current Allied Goal should be writen:
Allied Goal: Extract (Full only) 400,000 squads against Reapers on ANY difficulty"
That's by what you say Derek Hollan.
What it should be is
Allied Goal: Extract (Lone, Partial, or Full) 400,000 squads against Reapers on ANY difficulty"
Stop this buill**** ambiguity!

Had a second Krysae player at Quarian infiltrator, ammo power IV, and all that. Infiltrator nerfing it looks to be really sound, it even out the team score at least the teammates who aren't infiltrators don't get left behind now. Before these players would just get pushed aside to 1000k-3000kish, now it's like 4000k-5000k, the whole team is contributing it's good.
Tried helping a few lower levels guys after that late night but they wouldn't use medigels on round 9, so whatever.

But does anyone know for sure if joining a gold game in wave 3 will get me a pack or do I need to start from wave 1?
Should be okay if you exit the game with a full completion, extraction. But if you're weary of it, you can always double tap it to make sure. Should still be alot of people playing Reapers on Gold, Saturday even more so.

now im contributing by doing silver full extractions, switching to gold a few times as well
tip for gold: always have some equipment with oyu like the cyclonic one that increases shields even if its just rank I it helps a lot
and cryo ammo is a god send against reapers
but i have to say one thing to say
some people are not ready and thus are missing out on this (bronze casual players) like people with N7 ranking of 10 or so joining gold matches its just horrible to not be an elite player in this game it seems
my advice would be to make more diverse types of squad goals like kill this ammount of brutes or banshees or just finish a game with a set of weapons everyone using eagle pistols for example

did this twice yesterday: once with a full extraction against reapers on giant and then again later with a full extraction against reapers on reactor, all on gold. hard as f*ck to run around the map to keep from being gang-ra*ed by reapers on wave 11.
It was pretty ridiculous... FIrebase Giant seems to be the most manageable (i.e. has the most running room). At Firebase Jade, with two Ex-Cerberus Adepts, an Asari Adept, and an Asari Justicar, and biotic explosions in every direction I still felt like we escaped by the barest skin of our teeth.

I have seen some downright terrible gameplay today thus far, bad enough to make me stop playing and cool down until Tuesday comes.
I'll be shocked if we meet the allied goal, out of 15 matches I hosted with randoms...
Gold: 2 of 5 were full extractions
Silver: only 4 of 10 were Full extractions
I haven't not had a full extract on a silver in a month. Now this challenge comes and all the jackasses come out of the woodwork to die! Livid!

Last attempt was no mics, FBW/R/G. Made it finally with 3/4 of us. Went through all except one ammo pack and one ops pack to do it. 3-target, 6-hack,10-disable. We had 1 Gengineer, 1 AJA, 1 Krogan sentinel, and me Infiltrator specced for duration (for disable objectives)
