well those of you stubborn enough to go for a pointless community goal. I and all of the rational players won't be helping you. Better get used to the idea of soloing the extraction wave by yourself.

People like you are why we can't have nice things.

Do us a favor and stay out of MP this weekend.

well since YOU are in the minority how about YOU stay out of MP this weekend?

I'm clearly not in the minority, since most Silver/Gold games I've played with PUGs result in full extractions.

And what nice things?

A sixth medigel, for example.

The victory pack offers nothing useful. If it was an n7 promotional weapon that would be a different story. 

If it was an N7 promotional weapon, I'd just have to carry scrubs like you through more games anyways while you die on Wave 10.

So no. I hope they never again do Victory Packs with N7 guns.


Only you clealy are in the minority as the majority do not watse time on extraction, especial when its lengthened. 
The operation will fail, you will be forced to solo extraction and everyone will laugh at you. :lol:

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. :lol:

What is the Time (Start and finish)?
 


Check the brand new countdown timer at the top of the page. :)

This timer will countdown to when the Operation begins and will then switch over to a new timer counting down until the Operation ends. Hopefully this will prevent confusion over the start and end times.



:devil:


OMG, just logged back in at home for lunch and noticed the timer.

So much love. So much love for you guys. Seriously. The haters just need to shut up. They may not like some of the things you guys do for balances and whatnot, but you continuously show that you DO listen to your fanbase and implement what changes you can (that make sense) in a timely manner.

*hugs* for y'all. Every last one of y'all. Image IPB

Don't waste my time by joining my match and dying on wave 10.

Because quite bluntly, I will waste yours by soloing Wave 10 and 11.



Have fun with that, I'll just hug a banshee and the grab a bagle and cup of joe.  I will enjoy seeing you try so hard only to fail.

Squad Goal Success:[/b] All squad members awarded a Commendation Pack.
Allied Goal Success: All players awarded a Victory Pack that includes a new Earth character.
:devil:

Looks like an interesting challenge! But one question: If I have all of the new characters, with all of their appearance customization and it's impossible to get redundant rare player cards now, what do I get? A gun?

Thanks in advance! Image IPB

Edit: Sorry if this has been asked before; I didn't want to read all 4 pages...

Bump :/ (haven't seen it answered)

Go to the forum overview, and click on the "BioWare" tag underneath of it.

Chris answered it, you will get a random rare card. For most of us--that's going to mean crummy ammo unless we can feasibly get Ultra Rares.

I know he answered that, but I want to know for sure if it's just an ammo type. "Rare card" is kind of vague. I hope I'll get an ultra rare though...

Rare card being kind of vague is likely the point.

I don't think he's going to out and out say "You're going to get Rare ammo!" but let's face facts here.

That's what the majority of us are getting at this point, not Rare Gear equipment or URs.

Wow what a waste of community goals.. Why would you ever want to extract? Your just wasting everyone's time.


Some people like to finish missions. I think what the non-extractors do is great for them to farm more effeciently.  Makes sense. I just don't understand the parading around that a few non-extractors do. Like it's a thing to do or something. Such rebels.

So it goes.


Some people like to eat glass too.  Doesn't make it the smart thing to do.  Why would you not be efficient?  If the waves with endless enemies are your thing, then wave 10 is right up your alley.  And you get paid for it =)

And right here is the problem with your attitude.

It's a game. You're not min/maxxing for the most "efficient" credit farming. If you want to do that, you might as well be playing a stock exchange simulator.

Don't waste everyones time extracting for an Equipment Pack.

Don't waste my time by joining my match and dying on wave 10.

Because quite bluntly, I will waste yours by soloing Wave 10 and 11.


Uh-huh.  I'll enjoy seeing you solo that plat wave.  I may even stay infront of the TV for it.  Probably not though.  I'll likely go to make a sandwhich.

The problem with your statement (I'm ignoring the first part because it was so blatantly wrong.  You are min maxxing.  If you can't see that...), is that you think not extracting equals wasting time.  I can see we're going to disagree even though your statement is obviously false.

So is the extension of the time supposed to help or make it harder? The longer the time the longer it takes to extract the longer you have to survive. I doubt most military organizations work that way. If you find an operational procedure causes casualties then you work to decrease those casualties not increase them or punish the troops for faulty ops planning. I really expected more from you guys I know you have former military on staff did anyone think about this?

The extended time is because of the last operation's failure.

Wow, I really hope you're not on 360. I'd hate to play with you. Who joins somebody's game just to try and make them fail? You sound like a terrible teammate.

The extended extraction time is supposed to be the punishment for failing operation broadside. Says right in the original post.

Hahahahah very true indeed! But who am I to say anything about what they do with glass? What I'm asking about is the 'look at me, I don't extract' thing.

I think the smart thing to do is have fun with the game. For me that's getting through extraction. If that's akin to eating glass, then...well your analogy doesn't make much sense as a comparison but I see what you mean.

Sorry buddy, I don't ever join random matches. I only host or play with friends--who all go for Extraction.

Guess I don't have to worry about ever having to carry your scrub self then.

Allied goal not even close to good enough. Just will do squad goal and wait for next operation weekend. Way to set us up to fail a second operation weekend in a row BioFail.

Luck :D

I've always been able to max out my characters and weapons within the first week of a new DLC being released (the Typhoon being the only exception thus far...).

Ooh, I like this OP. And it is also nice that you guys were pretty clear on the goal and helped us out by counting each member who extracts towards the goal of 800,000. So, assuming Full Extractions, we only need about 400,000 Full Extractions on any difficulty versus any enemy. Seemse easy enough. And it looks like people will be breaking out their Earth characters this weekend to help out with the squad goal.

You seem to not understand what victory means, victory is earning credits or hard to get items, extractions offer neither. Therefore victory is completing the squad 10 goal. I think what you mean is that you'll drag us into wasting time whether we like it or not.

It's not luck. It's having a full manifest.

When you have all the previous content, you have a higher chance of filling it immediately with the "new" stuff as it takes priority over IV ammunition.

What if you already have all maxed Earth Characters?  Level IV gear, maybe?


You will get a Rare card instead.



:devil:


so basically lvl IV ammo then?:(
i think people who have all rares maxed out, as a reward for doing the event and having played so much/spent so much money that they have all rares maxed, should get a guaranteed ultra rare

i don't think that is too mucg, since there are 11 ultra rares with 10 levels each, 1 freebie out of 110 would be nice

All this arguing is why I enjoy silver more than gold. People play to have fun there and like seeing a "Mission complete" Sign at the end.

You're going to tell me that you think between 600,000 to 400,000 extractions on ANY difficulty versus ANY enemy is an impossible goal?

all i have to say is i plan on extracting every game as often as possible all you wave ten suicide bombers need to go find some other circle jerk to play in this weekend and let the people that actually care about helping each other achieve something do our job.
