I took it easy and played Novaguard against Geth Bronze solo. Got extraction, fought my instinct to Medigel reload cancel (just incase somehow pressing Medigel counts.) I had a shield gear equipped. All wordings imply that that's ok, but I should have been extra paranoid and played without any.

I assume consumables includes weapon/ammo/armor bonus, but not the gear slot?
*I hope you see what I did there

in the lobby you can click on the name of the person it will tell you if they are useing mods
Gear and ammo mods don't count, if I've read it correctly. It's if they use the ammo replenish consumable, a medigel, missile or ops survival pack ie the equipment you actively use in-game. You're fine with Cryo ammo, rail amp etc.

Here's advice to soloing bronze:
If you have a vorcha character then use this - invest points in Bloodlust (making sure to pick health regeneration), Flamer (pick damage, duration and increased damage against shields), Vorcha Resilience (pick the options which enhance powers) and Fitness (increase health and shields).
Choose the N7 Piranha / Disciple / Reegar Carbine and maybe an SMG too (but not vital).
Go into a game against Geth (I tend to find this works well on Glacier/White or another map with close quarter areas) and just spam your Flamer (pyros and primes will drop quickly, don't worry).
Enjoy.

Um...the splash screen doesn't say you can't use missiles. This might cause problems.
read it again ...."or Cobra Missle Launcher"
Maybe on xbox. On Pc it says, and I quote, "Complete Wave 10 on any difficulty without using a consumable (medi-gel, ammo,shields)"
Fail harder, bioware.
The xbox splash screen also failed to mention missiles <_<
Even though it has been confirmed here by Chris Priestly that they must not be used when going for the squad goal.

I believe your complaint is countered in the box 2 deeper than yours.
What did the XBox splash screen say Exactly?

It said the same as the pc splash screen described above. I suspect the 'counter argument' above that is actually referring to the op description splash image here in the forums. It's not a big deal to me, but I noticed it this morning and thought "huh. I wonder if bioware changed their minds about that. Must check the forums later".

The squad goal can be done solo?
I hope so. Otherwise I just wasted 21:58 on a solo bronze run. Not the easiest feat for a middle-of-the-road silver player, but I wanted to be sure there weren't any teammates using consumables.

Ok I'm new to MP this is my first week playing, I finished a match but how do i know i got the bonus pack? I'm not sure if the people I played with used any consumables.
We get the packs after the operation is complete (see timer). They'll announce when the packs have been rewarded out, where which you can find them free for you to grab in the store.

I do have one question, though. Using the medigel button for reload cancel, will that count against you?
I did it once then had that thought. I quit reload cancelling for the rest of the game. Now I feel like I should do another.

You don't, really. That is until sometime next week, when the Reward packs are handed out. If you want to make absolutely sure, you will have to do a solo run. But if you're new to the MP that might not be an option, well at least it wasn't for me, when I startet with MP. You will just have to talk to your Teammates, or maybe ask here in the Forums, if someone goes through a match with you....
I'd help you, but I'm on PC not PS3....

Ah well, I completed it all the way to extraction without any one-time mods against Geth on Dagger. Used a Salarian Engineer with energy drain, decoy and a Viper X.

Ok, quick question, since I'm paranoid. I finished the match using no consumables and after the totals screen it put me back into my lobby. Shortly after that I lost my connection. It'll still count, right, since I finished the match and it put me back into the lobby? If I lose out on this because of a stupid disconnect....grrrr.
It should count. You only have to go to the completion of Wave 10 with no consumables in order to complete the squad goal. So, you could just up and die on the extraction wave, or decide to blow all your missiles into the sky, and be fine.

The squad bonus is going to really frustrating for us PS3 players who don't get any ingame status or alert notification about operations. Most players don't even know about these things.Plus barely anyone has/uses a mic. I'm going to have to keep doing a ton of bronze and hope one of them gets lucky. Already burned through four matches where someone uses a dang medi-gel. Sigh. It'd be nice if we could track these things to know when we can stop trying.
I just took a look at your manifest. I would suggest, if you'd like to try a solo Bronze, take your krogan battlemaster, give him the Piranha, and slap on your Stronghold Package gear. Load up any other ammo, weapon, and armor mods you want (we can use those, just not the in-match consumables). Pick a map you're comfortable with. Pick Geth. Yes, Geth. Krogan vanguard has stunlock resistance and Geth have no insta-kills. Get lucky with the objective waves, and you should have a fairly easy solo.
If you don't want to solo or aren't very good at it, feel free to hit me up. My PSN is DragonRacer13. I can set up a private Bronze room and we can easily two-man it and get you a commendation pack (already completed my squad goal tonight).
Message me, let me know. I'm happy to help. My friend list is close to maxed out, so if it won't let you friend me, send me a message. I can prune a bit and get you on long enough for the operation, if need be.
