Good idea on the countdown timer. Looking forward to this weekend!

Wow, by now you would think Mr. Priestly would anticipate these questions and put out a VERY SPECIFIC operation description.

Just judging from the microscope the posters here have put every detail of the campaign under, and there are people here that have crunched numbers, probably for hours, to prove a weapon/character is OP or too weak...

you must know by now that many of these posters are DETAIL oriented, down to every crossed t or dotted i.

 Chris Priestly,
I don't generally post in BWS as I'm mostly content just browsing, so correct me if this is just your usual demeanor when giving replies and the community is just used to it by now, but I found your first couple replies here to be in quite bad taste. The squad goal is, in fact, not as clear as you make it out to be. It states, "Extraction on any difficulty with at least one squad member using an Earth Pack character." If it had just been "Extraction on any difficulty with at least one squad member," that would have been clear. By tacking on the requirement of an Earth character, the meaning of the sentence changes. Now the only clarification that is given is that nothing counts unless you have an Earth character. "At least one" can only apply to the the extraction part or the character specifications, not both simultaneously. So every post concerning this caveat is completely justified. So how do you reply? You question their intelligence and reading skills. In this case whether or not they can count to 1. Is this for real? Yeah, we all know what "single" and  "at least one" mean. They just aren't descriptors for the what those posts were referring to.

In the time its taken me to write this, you've probably already fully clarified all of these points, but that doesn't change that your first posts were somewhat disrespectful. These were genuine questions which deserved an answer far better than you provided. So all I really ask is that you try to better interpret the inquiries of the community and not with such condescension.

Thanks for at least being active in listening to the community and listening to me. I know we all appreciate it.

Here we go, this shouldn't be a problem for the community. Squad goal is full extraction? Last event there were some misunderstanding on this, so I would like some clarification please.

[zapphoman24]

Yeah I got my first Earth character today (Demolisher...love her) so I will definitely be playing this weekend.

Enemy: ANY

Map: ANY

Difficulty: ANY

Squad goal: at least ONE person on the team extracts, WHILE HAVING AN EARTH CHARACTER ON THE TEAM. it doesnt matter if its the earth character or a krogan that gets to extraction, as long as AT LEAST ONE DOES.

Allied goal: same as squad goal, except every extracted person counts towards the final goal. if you don't have an earth character on your team, it does not count any of them.

chris, please put this ^ somewhere where everyone can see it and save yourself all the questions

Chris, what is the amount of time that extraction has been extended? Thirty seconds? A minute? Two? Three?

What does this mean can you actually clarify this time? Does only the Earth character need to be extracted? Or do you need a full extraction? Also please put a lower cap on equipment bonuses, I have asked a lot and received no response. The regular equipment has a cap of 255 and you get 5 of them from spectre packs. So a lower cap would also benefit people who played longer by giving them bonuses they actually use and eventually ultra rares.

"Single". As in "at least one".

I'm glad to clarify, but I thought "single" was already pretty clear.

As for the rest of my post?

[IAmARad]

So all matches this weekend will have an extended wave 11?  Not sure I like that.  As for the 800,000 extractions, is that individual players, individual characters, or individual gamers?  What I mean is, if I get extraction like twenty times with six different characters, three of which are Earth characters, do I get 20, 6, 3, or just 1 credit toward the overall goal of 800,000?  Cuz between me and my friends, we'll get a few hundred on our own if it's each person in each extraction each time.

This is beautifully and succinctly stated.  And agree should definitely be tacked onto the original announcements ...

... IF you are indeed correct on the Enemy: ANY (has Chris verified this?).  I only add this caveat as the first (context) sentence says "Reaper Stronghold".  But then again, it says "Earth" which he has already said is not the case.  I'm 99% sure you are right.

[TruReynar]

Good. A nice, uncomplicated objective.

I still think the last operation failed because so many people didn't notice that the gold matches had to be against REAPERS to count. Every game I dropped into on the Friday was against Geth.

Chris must want to beat his head against a wall.

Reading comprehension, people. The directions are pretty clear.

Sigh, no it isn't, and somebody obviously has a short-term memory. Go back and read the Operation Broadside announcement and figure out what's wrong with it. Yes, it never specifies that a Full Extraction is required to count towards the Allied Goal.

The same thing has happened again. The announcement does not clearly specify what type of extraction is required. It says "Squad Goal: Extraction on any difficulty with at least one squad member using an Earth Pack character", which can be interpreted as either:

- Any extraction on any difficulty with at least one member of the squad using an Earth DLC character; or
- A Lone Survivor Extraction on any difficulty with every member of the squad using an Earth DLC character

The announcement also fails to specify if the enemy has to be Reapers on a map based on Earth. It is implied, but never stated as a requirement. As it turns out, it is not.

[AtreiNero]

Ok I'm just trying to consolidate the various questions and any open questions. Sorry, I'm not good at formatting links.

• Does the Allied Objective require full extraction? NO EACH CHARACTER EXRACTED COUNTS TOWARDS THE GOAL PROVIDED THAT THE SQUAD HAS AT LEAST ONE EARTH DLC CHARACTER. social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/324/index/13312564#13327158
• Does the Allied Objective have to be on an Earth Map? NO ANY MAP WILL BE OK FOR THE OBJECTIVE. http://social.biowar...2564/2#13327184 Original Question. http://social.biowar...2564/2#13327333 Chris' Response further confirmation of point 1.
• Do either of the objectives have to be completed on an Earth Map? NO CHIRS' RSPONSE TO THE PREVIOUS QUESTION ANSWERS THIS

Open Questions. I could only find two outstanding questions from the posts so far.

• For the individual objective, does the Earth DLC character have to be extracted in order for the squad to get the Commendation pack?
• Can the objectives be against any enemy or do they have to be against Reapers? 

If the open questions can be answered, then I think it will solve everything. I hope. Feel free to quote me if I missed something but I think I got everything.

Nice, nice. Looking forward to this weekend, unlike the last one.

I bet the RNG gods screw me and give me a character upgrade to my Demolisher/Paladin though. Assuming we actually do the objective this time :|

[BloodyTalon]

Easy one and we get count down now till when it starts nice

Also will there be a counter once things start for allied goal?

I love the count down but I agree on a goal counter as well. Could we maybe get a credit counter too?

I bet we see a ton of n7 slayers and shadows this weekend.
