Here's hoping I'll be able to get my squad package for doing that objective, that is unless it expires before Bioware decides to fix the Black Screen of Death that has been around and they have known about since launch....cause I'm completely unable to play

Heres how i see it.
Squad = Everyone who is connected to a leader in multiplayer IE anyone and everyone in your party.
Atleast one or whole squad on gold ( squad goal ) 400k Squad extractions, any enemy, any difficulty= for gold even a sole survivor wins for allied everyone needs to survive to be extracted.
Every challenge i take it that way.... think about it that way it makes sense they wont make it easy for the packs maybe in the beginning but not now.
My opinion BTW

Not our fault. Between unclear objectives and cheating AI, what were we supposed to do?

Sigh. Hate it when you lose to a technicality. And also glad I made it to extraction. (Can't say the same to some pesky teammates who kept wandering off to soak up points and miss the shuttle.)

But I won't mind this time, as long as the next crack at winning comes soon. Like REAL soon. And yes, that goal tracker/counter would be fun, even if it means the objective target is way high.

Yes to the first part, but what do you mean "cheating AI"?

We DEFINITELY need a goal tracker. This would definitely create a tighter bond between the community and would push us to get other friends to help out if we knew where we are at. It's kind of stupid without a tracker.

This is crap.

"Extract at least one squad member against Reapers on Gold difficulty"

That could only be interpreted as needing only one of you to survive a gold MP match against reapers. I did that myself two or three times, and once where I was the sole survivor. It doesn't say extract all squad, it says extract one squad member. So how exactly does it make sense that I am not going to get my commendation pack?

@bisr, they are talking about the allied goal, not the squad goal.

@
HeliMedic Thanks for explaining that at least my squad acheivement is safe.

Dear Chris,

I don't read the bioware blog since ME3 came out, nor do I come on BSN except in a blue moon. Since you can generate the mission announcement in-game when you start multiplayer in ME3 then that is the only valid place for any clarification of any terms and conditions of success. It's where I read about the mission in the first place So any other location for clarification or explanation except on launch of multiplayer in ME3 is unacceptable. Most people do not come on BSN. They just play the game.

What a surprise, oh wait, it isnt considering it was put out halfway through the event "oh yeah, by the way, it had to be a FULL extraction."

So really that left us with half the time provided for us to try and catch up...

Even though I come on here a lot, I agree with you. The clarification should also be made the day of the announcement once people started asking. Not wait to say "Oh yeah..."

Well, that's a first..


Actually, it is the second failed mission.



:devil:

can we have a meter of sorts? This unknown marker that we have to reach is discouraging, most of gamers try to put as little effort as possible just to earn commendation pack I think.

When you dont know the finish line your strenght and will depletes faster - you do not have a goal to reach... simple as that.

How does 400,000 SQUAD(S) not mean "full extraction" when on the squad goal they specified "One Squad member"?  I guess to some it was vague but I guess in the future Bioware needs to spell these out word for word with pictures.....


It was ambiguous at best, since there are three types of extraction
(lone, partial, full).  Adding one word would have made all the
difference here.  I reasonably assumed they meant "any" type of squad extraction, and I only found out about the requirement for full through multiplayer comm chat.  I had
to go to the forum afterward to confirm it for myself, then I switched
to playing bronze Reaper missions because I just knew I wasn't the only
person who'd have fallen into this trap and we'd have a tough time meating the goal.

Commendation packs come from the squad goal, not the allied. So if you succeeded at THAT, you get the Commendation pack.

I agree with this, IMO it will seriously improve the teamwork, people will stop think "It's okay,  i did my part, i leave the rest to the community", that way players could see how close they are to the assigned objectives, and would play more to ensure the goal is achieved!

Maybe we should've play more bronze match in order to ensure easy SQUAD extraction but how many of us are still playing bronze(except the ones who promote their characters when they reach lvl 20 the max their N7 rank), i think a lot of us are playing for credites, so they only play silver or gold.

Next N7 weekend will be interesting as we failed the allied goal. Hope Brutes turn put in all missions and not Banshees again hate them!!! I saw a lot of level ones trying to join gold missions and it's crazy 16 the lowest I'll go for a gold mission.

N7 characters hopefully bring the fight back. :ph34r:

As always? I recall alot of commendation packs showing up on Tuesdays.

Regardless, it's pretty BS that originally it was stated "Special Circumstances: None", then half-way through the event, we were informed "Oh, btw, only FULL EXTRACTIONS count toward allied goal."

I really blame BioWare for this one because they failed to communicate that we needed full extraction to begin with. It wasn't until Saturday that I learned that we needed to have full extraction. So I played 10 matches and only had one full. I really feel cheated because of the lack of communication.

Just a hint next time guys, be specific in your communications and respond quicker so this doesn't happen again.


Not to burst your bubble but BioWare had clearly stated for the community goal that it had to be a full extraction on any difficulty from the get-go.


Sorry to burst your bubble but no they did not. blog.bioware.com/2012/07/10/operation-broadside/ Only says Extract 400,000 squads against Reapers on ANY difficulty, Didn't state that it needed to be full.. 


Last time I checked a 'Squad' especially in terms of this game meant 4 people hence your argument just became invaild...


Last time I checked, it says EXTRACTION SUCCESSFUL even with one successful player.


Well people are still gonna be arguing about it, but what's done is done.. will have to use my BRAIN a bit more :bandit:

If I understand what my fellow players are saying....you'd prefer that the mission orders were explicitly and unambigously written as:

Squad Goal: Extract at least one squad member against Reapers on Gold difficulty

Allied Goal: Extract 400,000 squads against Reapers on ANY difficulty.
*** ALL FOUR SQUAD MEMBERS MUST COMPLETE FULL EXTRACTION ON WAVE 11 ! ***

Special Circumstance: None
