I kept getting partials 'til I started hosting only Reaper games myself. And to make damned sure we got full extractions, during wave 11, I bolt for the Banshees and Brutes to use my rockets before anyone gets grabbed. Nerve-wracking, it is.

Some guy trolled me today by rolling out of the landing zone at the last second. It was just silver, so not a big deal.

I did get 2 full extractions on gold with random people so it all balances out.

Wowz, we made it! Thank you, you three randoms! I was so on the edge that I forgot to check the gamer tags. It was a blast and we got a partial extraction (with me and some other player alive). It was fun!

And a special thanks to the geth infiltrator - you saved us a bunch of times!

Seeing as it requires full extraction and the in game announcement didn't say so?  No.

So I have never beaten gold, got to level 10 a month or two ago whenever it was that the last challenge was gold. Literally everyone I know in real life uses PS3 so I pretty much have no xbox live friends who can help me with gold. I can beat silver pretty much every time I play if there is 4 of us and bronze I find to be easy. So im definately not a noob.

Does anyone wanna work on completing the gold challenge with me this weekend?

This is one objective that whoever assigned the objectives should be ashamed over. Full extractions are hard, even on Bronze, because - let's face it - problems happen. A Banshee gets lucky, a Ravager covers a seldom-used defile, a Brute manages to get someone killed just as the time runs out.

Sometimes it does come down to luck. But on bronze, I don't think Ravanger spawn on Wave 11 or at least they haven't in any of my solo runs. Killing one Banshee isn't that much of a problem either. Brutes may be a pain but at least they can be dodged since they are melee only. I say to be honest, a sneaky husk can be more of a problem as unlike Brutes, you can't hear them all that well.

I've seen it happen. I was helping a team on Firebase Ghost on Bronze, and on the final wave, some dude got Magnet Hands'd through a crate on wave 11.

Much later on, I was helping a team on Silver when the Asari in our group got Ravager'd. Nobody could get near her because there was a brute, a Marauder, and a Ravager in the way. We missiled our way into the crowd, only for a Banshee to show up and make the Phoenix Vanguard in our group her ****.

It happens.

Can anyone help me out with this? I've had a terrible time getting a full extraction with randoms. I'm not particularly good, I can dominate a game of silver but I've always struggled with gold. (PS3, by the way.)

I'll be free most of the day tomorrow if anyone can help out. I typically run a Turian Soldier, but I can go Asari Adept or an infiltrator just as easily depending on what the team needs.

Try Firebase Dagger with a salarian infiltrator and a mostly biotic sqaud. In this map, an inflitartor can easily take out the minions from afar and the rest of the sqaud can run around the map with a banshee on their tail.

I played 3 gold matches in this map (as turian sentinel) and finished all 3 (1 was a full extraction).

But you will have to run around to keep the banshee away from you. Spam warps and overloads and you can win it pretty easily.

You DO NOT need full extraction for sqaud goal. Get atleast 1 player safely extracted. thats all you need.

For the allied goal, you need FULL etraction but you can do that in ANY difficulty.

Wow. The element of "playing with friends" is so much more meaningful now. What a difference...

From barely being able to accomplish a full extraction with PUGs on bronze to full extraction with 3 players on silver several times...

To those of you newer to the game trying to help out -- get a microphone please! It will help us help you immensely!! Back to pick-up silver with my KrOGuard... Time is running out!

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.

48 hrs to do this (Friday and Sat for USA)? Must extract everyone?

Calling it now: we won't make it. To many intelectually chalenged players in pubs. Even with a good pup team gold extract can be iffy.

I am trying; I need cbills for the 17th ;)

Yay!  My plans changed and I was able to play this weekend.  Somehow completed the squad goal on first try!!!  Thanks new xbox360 friends, it was a close one, but right at the last second, FULL EXTRACT!!!  We all made it out alive on gold!

So much easier when everyone has a mike, and the drell adept calls out who he reaved, so the biotic explosions are going off constantly.  A Decoy placed in a Justicar bubble is awesome too.

Gold matches do not need full extraction, just one team member making it gives all in that match credit for squad goal (commendation pack).

Allied challenge needs full extraction but can be done on any difficulty so, doing those on bronze makes more sense. As long as everyone in the group are playing for allied goal. Unfortunately, there's always some moron who'd choose to ignore the mission goals and just go on shooting just to get that one more kill.

Do you need full extraction for squad goal or only for the community goal? I can't seem to find a conclusive answer although the challenge does say extract at least ONE member... idk.

Vorcha sentinel on Gold/Dagger, melts Brutes all day, every day. Slight problem with the banshees...blew all my launchers by wave 9.
First attempts ended up being Firebase Condor...what a nightmare.

as long as the glitches dont mess up any game. for example earlier today, in one of the matches i was in, the objective was to get an artefact and take it to the extraction point. one of our team picked it up but then she disappeared, either he/she decided to leave the game or had connection problems. the problem was when they left the game ended up taking the artefact with them, and we ended up failing the mission. oh well
