As much as I love this forum, I have to think that less than 5% of players are actually visiting it or other competing forums. The fun of MP is that you just pick up and play...no research required. So cognition of a Operation Broadside may be one of the top causes of the goal not being met.

I find it vary hard to believe that we failed the challenge, 400,000 squad extraction dosnt seem that hard
I am with you...didn't think it was going to be a big deal. I guess the qualifier is that it was 400,000 FULL Extractions against Reapers. Still thought it was going to be a breeze, thought everyone was panicking for nothing,...but someone made a great point of 3,000,000 banshees was easier taking into account the bronze/gold/silver mix of enemies and we didn't get that one either.
Good fun either way, and it will be cool if there is actually a penalty to deal with like last time.

As a PS3 player, the aspect I question most is if the average player even knows that a mission is in play. I can't seem to find any information that references the missions anywhere in all of the PS3 multiplayer-dom (please correct me if I am wrong fellow PS3-ers). Is this different for XBL or PC? Is there any kind of in game notification of the Mission Weekend?

We xboxers get a full-screen notification when it goes active

Bioware had been saying, in the 2 or 3 Ops after we finally got in, that there was a "known bug/issue" that was preventing the notification screen on PS3, but they've stopped writing that altogether and won't comment on whether PS3 is EVER getting that screen or not. It'd be a huge help, because I always find players who don't even know there's an Op going on...

(if you remove the amount ps3 owners got you guys still didn't lose too badly.) Bioware needs to do more to raise awareness of these ops among ps3 players. No one cares to play reapers anyways so a mass of unknowningly players offers minor helps. those who helped are problably forum heads.roger4950 wrote...

that is an excellent idea! to see in realtime where our progress stands as a whole combined. Maybe even with a small breakdown pie graph showing xbox group progress, ps3 group progress and pc group progress.
I like that idea I think that would be kinda fun to see
view during the event.

Normally get one on PC but I know I didn't get one this time and I am sure others didn't as well. I kept jumping in to PUG with Geth or Cerberus as the enemy.Unfair_Banana wrote...

Up until about a wek ago, I pretty much never used SMGs for that exact reason. I finally tried out my N7 Hurricane II, and actually I have a lot of fun with it. I've figured out how to deal with the recoil, and that thing tears through some enemies. I got the Hurricane III in my commendation this week and I was actually happy about it. I've become so used to it that when I have it and my Carnifex, I forget to use the Carnifex because I'm mowing enemies down pretty well. The SMG+ permanent gear also adds to the fun.CuzMikDntTlkAbout wrote...
I got a Hurricane II in my pack. I can't think of a worse ultra rare for me. I almost never use SMGs and that thing has such a brutal kick that it's almost unusable.
Then, when I got the N7 Paladin Sentinel, snap freeze, energy drain and hip shotting with a Hurricane...I've had fun the last 2 days with that combination. I wouldn't say it's the most efficient combo but yeah, fun.

i got mine last night, so they are getting handed out, be patient it will come
Sorry, but that's not good advice. I never get the pack when I'm supposed to. Ever.
I've succesfuly participated in every challenge and every time I have to contact them in order to get it.
Once I was patient. They told me to wait 1 day, and another day, and another. And then the pack "expired" and they wouldn't/couldn't give me one.
So if in the next few hours you don't get it, start bugging them. That's what I'm going to do when I get home from work.

I already contacted the help center. They say it's a temporary issue, but still no commendation pack, so not fixed yet...

Same here, didn't understand the hype of this SMG, all the accuracy of a dead storm trooper, and about as lethal as one as well. I like my Saber for it's uncanny abillity of occasionally taking someones head off, and backup Evicerator for those close encounters (and for when I run out of ammo for the saber), could really do with some level ups for those guns though.
