Next mission: complete 100 000 successful escort missions.
And by escort missions we mean kill Banshees.
And by Banshees we mean Geth Primes.
So that's 200 000 Geth Primes, everyone got it?

I still find it hilarious that Bioware continues to post mis-information to the public. This was not the first, second or even third time that Bioware failed to inform the community of the apporpriate goal. Worse yet, they (Bioware) invented the terminology of 'full extration' and 'lone survivor' yet seem incapable of using it correctly. "Squad extracts" is never once used in Mass Effect 3 multiplayer. The only thing failed about this event are Bioware's communication skills.
I wish that Bioware would improve their communication since updating/correcting their mistakes via twitter is not enough considering that the millions of players only use the in-game information as a basis for what the individual/squad and community goal is for an event. Sure, you can say I am being overly critical but, as I have noted, this trend continues to occur because of a lack of effort on Bioware's part to clarify the event goals properly. Never once was full extraction mentioned in-game for this event.

SIR, YES SIR.

You are aware that the squad goals and the community goals are two separate things? You will still get a commendation pack in case you have met the goal of defeating the Reapers on gold with a partial extraction.t1n0 wrote...
Last operation, I only got one of the two rewards...didn't bother raising a stink.
Now this time, no winnings at all.
thing is, Our squad did one of the goals, I should at lest get one pack, the other was a 'community' goal, for the 400k total...does this mean that BOTH objectives had to be met?
Because that is just more proof that this was ambiguous at best, and unachievable, given the declining population of MP players ( I wonder why?)
My understanding was to have anybody extracted on GoldReaper was a win for the four people involved, and 400K extractions (NOT SPECIFIED FULL) on any level for the second prize.
Am I to understand correctly, that in addition to the time snafu, and that the 400K had to be full extractions, that our squad goal reward was dependent on the community goal?
So even if our squad got one person extracted on Gold/Reaper, we don't get dick unless the community ALSO did 400K FULL extractions?
When you add this BS to the recent BS of nerfing of infiltrators, and overall BS of spending 99k credits for character training, enemies consistently getting stronger while weapons are being weakened after every 'update', I can see why people are starting to play other games and I don't see them online anymore...
However, truth be told, these are moves from the same crew that EPICally fumbled the ending to possible the greatest video game in recent history....

I want numbers, dammit! How much did we fail by? I did think 400,000 was a very high number.

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.
Hey! I never said any of that.Chris Priestly wrote...
There is an old human expression: “You reap what you sow.” The word “reap” has been co-opted by our enemy, but this does not make the expression any less true. We have spent much time in recent weeks planting seeds. We recruited, we trained, we defended, all in the hopes that, sometime soon, we would have enough breathing room to mobilize against the enemy on a grand scale. Over the past few days, we did just that.
Operation BROADSIDE attacked Reapers all over the galaxy, and we made them take notice. They expected to fight asari on Thessia, turians on Palaven, batarians on Khar’shan, but what they got was turian bombardments covering vorcha troops using human tactics in asari streets. It was perhaps due to this complexity that BROADSIDE did not go as planned. We sought a way to defeat a numerically superior ground force with little loss of life, but there was no sure strategy to adopt. When we innovate, our enemy adapts. Yes, we’ve seen losses, but a war worth fighting does not come without a cost.
Take inspiration in that. I know it is discouraging to fight for alien real estate when we have not yet taken the battle to your own homeworld. Operational secrecy prevents me from saying exactly when we will deploy and in what strength. All I can say to those who are waiting is one word:
Soon.

Not sure if anyone knows this, but weekend Operations are "scripted" in order to setup future weekend Operations and/or DLC. Operation Broadside was most likely intended to be a failure regardless of the outcome.
Just saying.
