What if someone pulls out the missile launcher but doesn't actually use it?
That wouldn't fail the mission would it?

Just finished my squad goal with my Kroguard by soloing but also contributed to allied goal since one mission was an escort. We can do this. The Bioware community is unstoppable whether we work together or go it alone. We just have to give it our all.


We could do it if escorts didn't all of a sudden become exceedingly rare :?

All dozen or so missions I've done this weekend have had escort objectives. It's random. Just keep playing.

I'd rather just keep playing GW2 instead, wasting time trying to get a single escort mission is just, well, wasting time. Nevermind the frustrations of the squad goal.

Do the squad goal mean that I have to start from WAVE 1 or does it mean I have to be in the lobby then let the game start then finish wave 10 to get the reward cause I am getting nothing but already s tarted games.

Did my squad goal tonight by myself, Kroguard/Geth/Glacier. I've been playing excessively this weekend and have barely seen any escort missions. I think we're meant to fail?

But I'm still up for helping anyone out with Squad Goal on PS3.

Did it bronze solo on Saturday. Level 20 Fury, Geth, White, Piranha X. Had escort, pizza delivery, escort. Pretty easy with those missions and got full extraction. Have played multiple PUG games bronze/silver/gold since then and seen a lot of escort missions. Just random and luck, I suppose.

I think the escort missions average out eventually for every 10 games someone didn't have it someone else played 10 with two in it or maybe 3. If this holds true then all we need is play 250,000 games and this is across 4 difficulties and 3 platforms. Take note that the recent OP Olympus which only counts extractions in London, the community made >500k in total across diff/platforms. Add the odd game that wasn't in London, the community seems to easily do more or less 700k games in a weekend.

Plus based on the description in the OP Vigilance  BW may be counting escort missions even if you failed the game. I have a couple of solos which I failed both in by Wave 6 but I had 1 escort mission each in early waves. And game says drone mission was successful.  So I reckon this will be done deal for the Allied Goal. Feel free to shoot down my  theory if I seem to miss something.

I played two solo games last night, and every objective bar one "shoot the enemy targets" was an escort. Luckily N7 destroyers at full shields, on bronze with plus shield gear can just walk where they please mowing down multiple enemies in a hail of bullets mostly ignoring incoming fire. The trick is simply to kill them all so fast they can't shoot back at you - my maneuverability was awful with both rockets and devastator mode on so dodging was out of the question. Rocket stagger and cryo ammo kept me from being swarmed, and my collector rifle was taking out four mooks a second from across the map if they lined up in a row for me and I aimed headwards - the accuracy of that thing in devastator mode is awesome.

The collector rifle is made for the destroyer IMO, weight is no issue with any powers as they are always on, and its accuracy is amazing compared to the revenant, which is the other gun I like to use on him - over range its a much better option, especially when I can pack the Piranha for bosses.

Esaint, I'm in the process of tracking the missions on ten matches. So far, I've gotten two drones over four matches, and those where in the same round

Did 3 bronze solos last night and got 3 escorts. Did it with Krogan soldier and Vorcha Sentinel, both with Harrier/Piranha and Juggernaut Shield. I don't usually use these chars on gold because melee isn't really my jam, but it was fun watching geth ragdoll across the room and cerbies' heads fly off from my Freddy Krueger claws.

5 matches, 3 drones = 3/15 = 1/5 chance of getting a drone.

No, I got an escort mission on both of the solo rounds I played.   This is another case of people not understanding what "random" really means.

Yup. I played for 4 1/2 hours yesterday, had a grand total of 4 escort missions.

Before the weekend, I was literally averaging 2 esorts per match. PER MATCH.

However, of the escorts I have gotten, they have all only come from Bronze games (played whenever a friend needed help with the squad goal). And they seem more frequent on Rio. I have no idea why this is, but makes me a bit sad that I may have to dedicate my Sunday to Bronze/Rio in order to better our escort chances. Image IPB

I was thinking about that... I wanted to glitch away my rocket launcher but you have to pull it out to do that. I don't know.
I solo'd a bronze mission and didn't even take it out once just to be sure.
