When are packs handed out..? tuesday or wednesday..?

Tuesday usually around 8PM EST. If complications arise, wednesday.

If you see threads about people getting "x" in their pack, and you havent gotten one, contact EA support.

Good.. if it's on tuesday I might get my packs before I leave for vacations..

So if you join a game in progress it still counts?

Based on past experience, I would say NO.

On one of the previous operations that required a Gold extraction, I was helping a friend who was not normally a gold player. Sometime during round 10 his connection dropped, hosed all his credits earned, etc (usual story), but was invited back in before the extraction occurred. When the packs were handed out - NO pack.

So even though he was there on Wave 1, and at the end of Wave 11, the stats obviously only counted him from when he came back in on the second invite, and due to that session not being there all waves, it was not counted.

So if you drop in mid game, I would assume it does not count, and I would play another round from start to finish.

Which is better the sabre or the harrier?

I like Saber with my BF3 soldier, during adrenaline rush its just fabulous.
With Harrier i got constantly ammo shortage, so its ideal for N7 Demolisher and his supply pilon.

Harrier by far.

Stupid question, but is this going on on the PS3? I have tried about 10 matches and found only one using any N7 Characters. It was a gold and my manifest on PS3 is very sad compared to my xbox one (PS3 - sergeantawesome.) and I cannot compete in gold with the current weapons I have. I could not find bronze match and it is frustrating. So, my question is because it seems no one on the PS3 wants to participate in the operation.

UPDATE:  Finally got it after several more attempts.  Thanks to everyone who has offered assistance! 

I see this more on the PS3 than Xbox.

Yes it is.  The problem is we can not have the mission splash screen when starting multiplayer.  And i've come to realize an estimated 5% of PS3 people read the forums.

My apologies again to the people I was playing with on Firebase Glacier Silver against Cerberus. I put my character in that little room and he just stood there while I was dealing with a bad case of diahrrea. I didn't make it back in time and was kicked. My interior workings have been very messed up this weekend. I wish there was an emergency poop pause button, but I understand that would be impossible to implement. Again, I'm sorry.

You should have seen the team I got stuck in last game... Horribad doesn't begin to describe it.

Managed to drag them to wave 10, but with no missiles left (I literally only had 1 ammo refill left) I just couldn't get the last pizza past the prime guarding the LZ. Of course they had all bled out by then, just like they had in every round since wave 2...

Should have called it quits after the wave 3 objective I guess. I came close in that I decided to go at it melee with my glass cannon demolisher after they went down, just my luck I made it...

After my total of an hour and a half, I finally got a group with two and was able to do it. Thanks for offering your help!

This is one of the main reasons I have been trying to talk the wife into getting a TV installed in my bathroom.  Unfortunately I cannot win that battle.

Not if the rest decides that extraction is not worth the extra time and effort and suicides altogether.Chances are that if they are farmers(come on,specifically selecting FBWGG/P is already a strong indication),they won't bother about extraction round even.Once the money is in the bag,it's done.

So far we have been wiped out only 2 times, rest (25) are full extractions.
I am bad farmer. I always try to survive till extraction.

[Berrule]

As a PS3 player I was totally clueless about these events until I received a squad pack by what seemed like accident and went to investigate what was up. If I had known I would have definitely participated much earlier.

The Allied goal is doable since all we need is 10,000 of us doing 20 full extractions. Assuming each full extraction = 4 players. Unlike that last "made to fail" goal.

I'm afraid not. Read this VERY carefully:

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

800,000 individual players.
1 player extracting 800,000 times does not equal 800,000 individual players
40,000 players each extracting 20 times does not equal 800,000 individual players.

What we need for the Allied goal is 800,000 individual players, each extracting at least one time. And I really have NO idea how many people world wide even play ME MP. I do fear it's less than 800,000 though, especially now that it's summer holiday to a lot of people, and they're spending time on the beach in Spain or something, instead of playing games over the internet.

Individual Players does not state unique ID's.  10,000 doing 20 extractions would work.

Nope, that would be characters, not players. Just saying: don't get your hopes up, and maybe it'll turn out alright. Better than complaining after.

Lol.  My cat tries to climb up on me looking for attention while I'm playing.

That would be fantastic.  I'd like a system setup so that I could continue my game in the bathroom and then go back to the regular TV when I'm done.  It'd be even better if my intestines would just cooperate.

Wait, so you think 800,000 unique players need to extract?

So with this logic, since I extracted on Friday, I wouldn't need to do anything else during the weekend? My job here is done?

I'm sure you are mistaken, 1 person extracting 800,000 times WOULD count.

They wouldn't make a goal where you can't continually work towards it. And if they actually did, it would be nowhere near 800,000.

[LockeGenRedux]

Hey, Chris. Just for clarification, for the Squad goal, so long as one member of the team is alive, and we get extraction, all members of the squad get a commendation pack, correct? (Assuming one of the team, even if dead, is an Earth Pack character.)

Or if anyone knows for sure, PM me please. I just want to make sure.

My cat figured out that the best way to get my full attention was to sit down on my arms while I was playing. At first it was pretty annoying, but nowadays he can sleep on my lap without it messing up the gameplay much. I call it "the silver + cat difficulty". He's happy, I'm happy.

Chris Priestly wrote...

Point of clarification:
Squad Goal MUST have at least one member from the Earth DLC pack to count towards the squad goal.
Allied Goal does not require a member form Earth. You can have Earth characters, but they are not required.

Everyone who keeps asking about it, look at this. It's the most recent update.

I've extracted at least 6 timse with my Devastator in PUG's. I have extracted at least 12 times with random other characters in PUG's that had an Earth DLC character. I'm doing my part.
