To be completely safe, play reapers on any earth map with at least one N7 character for every match. Contrary to what some are saying, the challenge isn't 100% clear. As others have said, the key words are earth and reapers. I hope this isn't another setup to fail.

Except... if you had done what I just posted above you, you'd see this:

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

Key words of fabula, not objectives.

Thanks, I didn't know about this.  I still think it's ridiculous how vague they insist on being, even going as far as contradicting each other.  Are they doing this on purpose, or are they really that thick?

Community goal not worth it. I'll do what it take to get my Eagle V along with my teammates promos but that's it.

If you play as much as I and most of the people I play with the extra time it takes to get extraction cuts down on the total number of games me and my team can get in and that mean less credits overall. More credits = more packs purchased and more URs.

Also I'm still pissed at BW for screwing up the community goal last time. Most players had no idea you had to get a FULL extraction and thanks to the poorly communicated mission objective believed a partial extraction applied to the goal. Only those who read deep into a massive thread found out that a full extraction was required. Me and my team played only Reapers for that entire weekend using up medigels to get full extraction for nothing. Not going to repeat that mistake for a lousy rare card.

I've done my damnedest to participate in trying to achieve the community goal of every weekend event since I started playing the multiplayer mode (I missed the first one or two, as I was too busy having fun playing single player to get round to trying it), but I have to admit to agreeing with much of Ryan's sentiment here.

Having unlocked all the new N7 characters, including all appearance options within several days of the Earth DLC's release, there is absolutely zero personal motivation to go out of my way for the victory pack.

Also, given the fact that whomever is composing these announcements for Bioware doesn't seem to have learned the lessons from the ambiguity in the previous weekend's instructions, I find it hard to come to any other conclusion than the fact that the ambiguity was a deliberate attempt to set us up to fail whilst simultaneously dangling the sixth medigel in front of our faces like a carrot.

If they have since clarified whether or not an Earth character is actually required to extract for success (rather than just being part a team that has a non-earth character successfully make it) then you'll have to excuse me for missing it in this TL:DR thread, when that should have been clearly spelled out in the OP.

To be brutally honest, about the most interesting part of this weekend operation announcement has been the 'failure condition' from the previous weekend. So, in all honesty, if this is the best the bods at Bioware can come up with, I'm kinda hoping that we actually fail this operation, just so the next one might also have an interesting twist.... I certainly couldn't give a monkey's backside about busting my butt for what is bound to be yet another wholly disappointing victory pack, for me at least.

Thank you for pointing out this feature. I was not previously aware of it. I followed your advice and lo and behold... there is nothing clearing up the ambiguity in the squad goal as stated in the OP. Guess I'm gonna have to get a bunch of friends together to all play new N7 characters to full extraction just to make sure, as they haven't even spelled out whether a solo run will count either!

Now, if you'll excuse me... my forehead has an appointment with the nearest brick wall!

Have you got your online feedback on, have read some threads about weekend events / Commendation Pack and that seams to be one of the reasons not to get one.

This will suck because it will probably just give me one of the earth characters I already have, rather than a new one.

For the allied goal, does each of the 800000 individuals have to be an Earth pack character?


Allied Goal: Extract 800,000 individual players on any difficulty, with each live member counting toward the goal.

As long as there is a Earth character in the team, all alive players count.

My Online Feedback is turned on yet i never get rewards (PC). I still havent received the commendation pack from the last event.

Support wasn't really helpful about this issue either. If anyone has any information about the fix please let me know. I have checked my firewall and even port forwarded ME3.

It just happens. If you see you haven't received your Commendation Pack even if you completed the objective(s) and have feedback turned on, you should contact them and explain your problem.

My guide has an example text you can use.

So if I have a couple of the new characters will it guarantee me a new one I don't have?

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


:devil:


Ok Chris, to count, does it have to be reapers only? I think that is the only thing not clarified yet. Thanks.

While Im still pretty sure the answer is "No" (Seeing as how it wasnt listed under the spceial circumstances), Why dont you PM a Moderator instead of spamming that on this thread? I've seen you post that question at least 5 times.

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.



:devil:

Sorry, but mine is always set to 'On', and I am never granted rewards - I have to contact EA every week ¬.¬

Am I the only one that highly doubts we will meet the community goal? 800,000 seems like a lot more than the player base will be able to achieve.
