Maybe Bioware should increase credit gain by, say, 50%. But you only receive (full) credits when you extract. Dead men need not be paid, after all, and there is a war going on. Then you'd have a carrot, and a stick at the same time.

I mean, a credit bonus for extracting would work too, but that's nowhere near as fun.


And to the non-extractors; as been said before, there's no incentive for you to do it. But next time, maybe they'll cut credit gain. It seems to be THE way to hurt the playerbase, so it might be only a matter of time... :innocent:

Lol and if they do that I promise I'll extract.  But they won't cut credits.  That would be bad joo-joo.

I am a little annoyed at the failure of the last op, really wanted that medigel upgrade, so I would really like to see people try to take this next op more seriously (granted the objectives are hardly comparable and we have a better chance this time). We're a community here, it wouldn't hurt to play the game with that in mind.

A community with divergent perspectives or, perhaps, not a community at all.

Starts on my B-day. I have my Shadow ready and waiting.

Ah, fair enough. So long as one playstyle doesn't hinder another.

Allied Goal Success: All players awarded a Victory Pack that includes a new Earth character.

Is it going to be a completely random earth character or is it going to be one we haven't unlocked yet?

[Kyerea]

My Fury, Destroyer, Shadow and Demolisher are ready for deployment. Love the countdown timer on the top of the site BW! XD Looking forward to the event!

Random question: Do the Victory packs still contain a chance for an N7 weapon or has that reward been replaced by the Earth DLC character?

I play with folks who enjoy winning the match which means extraction.  I don't expect divergent perspectives will hinder my efforts this weekend.  I guess the course of action here is to just play with friends.

Replaced.  That was just a one Op deal.

[ClockworkSpectre]

Once again the victory pack is not worth the effort. Maybe if they put a Promotional weapon or an Ultra Rare then it would be worth it. I will probably be going for credits this weekend so I will probably contribute regardless of how I feel about it.

[hubris007]

Could we get a little clarification? A few people have asked the question of whether the map must be a new earth map and whether the opponent must be reaper. Once you guys decide it must be reaper on an earth map, will you be updating the main page or just sticking it in as a response on page 30 or so of this thread?

Edit: I slogged through some of the other threads where you did answer the question of map and enemy. Any map, any enemy, at least one N7 player on the team.... still skeptical, but ok.

Still trying to work out where I said my way was the only way and attempted to push it on anyone, especially when I acknowledged we had different playstyles.

You equated your way with right and my way with wrong.  Don't sweat it dude the types on the page now and I think we're both way past it.  Good luck this weekend with the extractions.

Fine by me.

I'm not the one who's going to be spending upwards of 3 minutes raging at the host and two of his friends in a match going through Extraction. 

Only I'm gonna be the host and you will be the only one raging about how your the only one trying for extraction

So you get yourself killed after completion the wave 10 objective, as this saves time. While when you stay another 3 or 4 minutes (don't know what the penalty this weeken is), you help towards the overall goal and get a Rare card, worth 60k credits. Which mode do you play which give you that much credits in such a short amount of time?

It's fine when you want to farm for credits and everybody in the lobby agrees to do that, but when you want to do it this weekend with randoms; good luck! Really hope for you that you have something else to after the wave 10 objective, because every random will want to go for an extraction.

 

Math does not compute.  Just because you get a IV Ammo in a SP doesn't make it worth 60k credits.  That just what you pay for it.  Likewise just because I pay 60k for a Typhoon doesn't mean it's worth only 60k.  Your logic is flawed.

Additionally.  We can assume at least 4 minutes safely I believe for the extraction waves (though 5 sounds more likely).  Which means 5 minutes on every match.  Not to mention the consumable cost if your gorup is struggling or you are just an average player.  

So no thanks.  It's not a 60k gain.  You just didn't accoutn for all the variables.

Mate; you get a Rare pack. According to your own manifest you've not unlocked 5 gear packs, and have not one at level 5, so why do you insist on saying you'll get a lvl 4 ammo? Look at my manifest and after that just keep your mouth please.

I do farm Gold or Platinum on a regular base and we all die after the objective done in round 10, but doing it this weekend will get you a lot of (Imo deserved) bad reputation.

Hopefully this works out better

[Armorat]

Countdown is a great idea! Good thinking, BW.

[Vinace]

Dang! I thought they were going to include the increase medi gel capacity on this operation but I guess not :\\

Because my manifest was never the point.  (Though I do have one at L5 =P).  That's another strawman argument. Extraction is still not worth it.  If it was a squad goal and only required doing it one match sure. But wasting an hour or more on the extraction waves (assuming 5 minutes per extract with the penalty and 12 matches over the course of the Op at minimum) isn't worth the rare card.  

So again *yawn*  Everyone that is in my shoues is still better served by stopping at wave 10.   :innocent:

i didn't find the goals confusing then either... just the goal out of reach.

And every one of them with at least one Earth character. How many non-BSNers are going to pay attention to that detail?

They really mean it when they call them "challenges"
