As the weekend operation closes to an end I would like to thank the players on gold for getting me through the missions having never played gold before it found it quite fun but will need alot of practice.

It was also good to see that most players on highier levels are helpful and unlike other online games i have played if your not having the best of days or being a little crap so far i have never seen players kicked from the game

Thank's Guys :)

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.

This was not specified in the event announcement and is a very important detail.  Full extraction is very often missed on gold and silver because someone gets banshee grabbed.  This event basically forces us to play as much bronze as possible to have the best chance :(.
Since full extraction was not clearly announced as the goal previously many people may not use medigel on wave 11 if needed when they should be doing it for this event.  Extract x players would have been a much better goal imho.

I'm trying to participate but my connection keeps getting dropped. Solar Storm fallout perhaps?

Is the event over now? Because the Bioware Blog says 4am PST on July 16th.

I was just wondering that myself.  10AM PST on a Sunday is an unusual time to end a challenge.

Apparently contributed only one relevant extraction (because it only counts full extractions into the 400,000). Too tired to play some more :/

I can't seem to maintain a stable connection. Gonna have to write this operation off as a loss for myself.

EDIT: And my apologies to any gold groups I may have ticked off by vanishing in the middle of the game.

If anyone at BW have home office on Sundays, can they confirm if the event is over or not? Thanks in advance.

Yeah I'd really like to know if it's over or not. My friend who is sort of new to the game wants to do it, but I'm not going to drag him through gold if the event is already over.

The thing is, if we want to get the community goal, shouldn't we just ramp on bronze after doing a gold run. While its "fun" and challenging to do the higher difficulty runs, we are essentially "farming" extractions and a bronze run takes what, 15min give or take and with a team who intends to complete with full extraction, its a breeze, even with PUGs. Sure, we'll earn less credits in a 30 min period, but get twice the extraction count.

Silver is "better" but unfortunately some PUGs I have been in seem to have more then it's fair share of teammates who just do need know how to boogie to the extraction zone at 20secs to.

Though it could be that I just get irritated more since my perception is that peeps who do Silver or Better should know better.

u can do it with average team in 21-23 minutes. So swarming bronze is not necessary. Read the link ^^

i think i did 20 or more successfull operations vs reapers on gold. Considering Bioware sold 3,5 milions of copies, i assume if we have 40 000 teams who do this extraction 10 times, it is done. I did about 20, which means i did quite a bit, and i think it will suffice in the end.

You can at least try to do some extractions on Silver/Bronze to contribute to the allied goal, then play Gold if you feel brave. And let's remember you still get a **** ton of credits for Gold, so it's win-win for just trying it.

Eh... He's incredibly new. Like under N7 50. Plus with randoms it's always a joy to play gold and sometimes even silver without having to carry everything.

Alas look like this will be the first challenge I fail. After a dozen or so attempts we couldn't get past wave 10, mainly due to the Banshee and her damn magneto hands that pull us across rooms.

Just finally got an extraction on Gold. So did I miss it?

edit:  Not sure if I care.  Just having finally managed it is enough.

We are never told that until the Monday/Tuesday after the operation ends. And the operation may actually still be live at the moment... Bioware has given conflicting end dates/times and has not clarified.
