Nevermind lol (can't edit post on my phone). Bioware, please make it an ultra rare for us with all the characters, otherwise the pack is useless to many people.

Hmm,

Yeah Ultra-Rare or a N7. Giving us a Character Card is pointless.

REMEMBER: Feedback upload MUST be on for us to know if you complete the Squad or Allied goals. If it is not, we will not be able to grant rewards to deserving players. Thanks.

Well some of us haven't maxed out our Earth characters yet, the DLC hasn't been out that long. Sorry we make the rewards so inconvenient for the rest of you.

If your trolling through this sloff, why not reposnd to some of the questions here.  Some info from your end would likely quell some of the grumbling.

Sarcasm detected.  What you just wrote was rather selfish.  No one is arguing that its not a good reward for some. However why should you get a reward and those people that already have the earth characters get the shaft?

It's a two way street man.  People just want to know it's worth their time to participate.

Does this mean each member extracted must be one of the earth dlc characters for it to count? Don't want the nonsense of broadside to happen again so please clarify immediately.


The squad has to have at least one earth character. If there is at least one Earth then ALL living squad members, Earth or not, count.



:devil:


so i have to survive extraction to get the commendation? 

What if theres an earth guy and he dies, do other people get it then? CLARIFY :(

Correction, THIS is selfish:

the allied(community) goal is not worth the effort this time.
there has only been like 2 allied goals worth doing and 1 of them we failed.

i already have all the earth characters maxed out and there are alot of people that already do too.
so lets just say i will only be trying for my individual goal this weekend, since the allied goal gives me nothing.


It's a freebie, be grateful they're offering a reward at all. This is no different than the other DLC where we got character cards for an Operation victory.

Sabotaging the allied goal because it doesn't provide personal benefit is extremely poor form.

Besides, it has already been stated that a Rare card is on offer for those who have their Earth characters.

Well hope they make any clarifications before hand, can't say we're to blame for the failure of the last operation.

But looking forward to this, already picturing tons of Demolishers and Destroyers hand in hand in battle . lol

Those two have fairly weak synergy, actually. Somebody ends up starved for ammo and grenades, and since devastator mode limits mobility of the two to run to an ammo crate it should be the demolisher since she's faster and the destroyer can hold ground until she returns.

You wanna see real synergy, try a full defense justicar or geth engineer with a destroyer. Dear christ. A destroyer under a full defense bubble doesn't hold the line, he is the line. With a GE, you can spec either healing turret for just about anything, or chuck a flamethrower turret out near a destroyer engaged in CQC to catch enemies in a crossfire and restore the destroyer's shields.

Likewise, practically any other engineer synergizes perfectly with the demolisher. Special mention goes to the SE and FQE, though, for the ability to chain elemental explosions and spam tech bursts with their respective deployables keeping the heat off the twosome.

Pretty much this.  If I extract, fine.  If not, I won't be worrying about it, and really won't waste any consumables on it.  And depending on the length of the longer Extraction (ie, like 5 mins or something) I may just not even bother.

Q1. Does this have to be full Extraction?
NO.
Q2. Does this have to be on  an earth map?
NO.

Q1. For this I'm assuming your post in the MP section meant at least 1 earth char must be in the squad for all people extracted to count?
YES. One Earth character must be in the squad. More is fine, but at least one.

Q2. Again any map or Earth maps only?
ANY map

Cristal clear :)

I hope to get a Paladin

Huh?  You want to drag morals into this?  In a world filled with moral relativism?  Don't be ridiculous.  No one wins that type of debate.  So if it is your opinion that it's bad form, then cool.  

One looking at it from his point of view would say, why are you so selfish as to demand I participate in an Op that has no incentive to me?  His playstyle doesn't effect you unless you in a match, in which case you can always quit.  

The truth is that extracting offers no incentive credit wise, and is a waste of time.  That's not an opinion, it's a fact.  If you want to extract feel free man.  Just don't try to force others to do something counter-productive

Ok so here is some math 800,000 individual extrations (lets go with full extractions for easy numbers) this equals 200,000 extractions on any dificulty with at least one N7 character which means only 50,000 of those extractions need to be N7.

this is doable on bronze and Silver i am shooting fora personal goal of 20 full extraction games myself.

Well our punishment for failing the last op is a longer wait for extraction...Bioware's punishment for being somewhat vague about the same op seems to be having everyone that has EVER played ME3 MP spam them with questions & skepticism (and the truly paranoid keep asking over and over using different words). I think WE got the easier end of it, lol

It's a two way street man.  People just want to know it's worth their time to participate.

Look, I've played ME3MP about an hour or two a night on average since release day, and since Earth came out I've played about two or three hours a day for a total of two or three PSP's a day in the last week. My manifest in total is about half-full, and I've gotten four N7 character cards (three slayers and a destroyer) in the past week.

Assuming perfect luck, you have to buy twelve PSP's to max all six N7 classes. Considering other new gold and black cards from the Earth DLC and a full manifest before that, you probably need to buy 30 or 40 PSP's to have maxed all your N7 classes thanks to random unlocks. That's four million credits on the topside.

To get that many PSP's worth of credits in the past week, you've probably glitched, farmed, bought packs with real money, or just plain and simple played more ME3MP than is really healthy for you to have. That's not the community's fault, that's yours. And, blaming BW and the community, and taking your toys and going home with them (and in the process, denying toys to others) over something for which you are ultimately accountable is the epitome of selfishness.

The truth is that extracting offers no incentive credit wise, and is a waste of time.  That's not an opinion, it's a fact.  If you want to extract feel free man.  Just don't try to force others to do something counter-productive 

Case in point. Perhaps if you'd not reduced the game to a calculus of maximizing credits per hour this operation would have incentive for you to participate. Which is ironic, considering you're griping about how there is no incentive to extract in a thread about an operation which includes incentive for extracting...an incentive for which you've excluded yourself, thanks to your own choices. Own it.

that is 50,000 full (all 4 players being N7) extrations
which equals 200,000 extractions the other 600,000 extractions can be non N7 characters

sorry if i was unclear

so say there is 100,000 people around the world that have n7 characters then each person would need to extract 2 times

seems easy enough right

Hey Gockey, i applaud your "theory of relativity" but wonder if you had a compatibility glitch when applying it to the statement which stated extraction being a waste of time is a fact...

Great limit it to MUST have one of the new characters in the squad. I can see this is going to be a fun weekend. I spend 2 million credits on PSP and didn't unlock any of them over the past week.

Operation OVERWATCH drops troops on Earth to tackle the most secure Reaper strongholds. Reaper anti-air defense will make for high-risk shuttle extractions.


Because of the above from the Overwatch description. Hey, after the last mess, I want to know, for sure, what we are doing. I mean, it doesn't say Geth, and it doesn't say Cerberus, it says REAPER. So all I am asking for is a simple clarification. That way on Tuesday we won't have find out we didn't make goal, because we find out then, that only the missions run on the weekend that counted were against the Reapers. Ok?
