I'll be stunned if we got the Escorts. I figured they;d make at least one appear in every other game or some such but I got 4 escort missions in about 30 games, and very few people are talking about rations much better then that. Oh well, the individual challenge was a doddle at least!

I've got maybe 6 escorts max while playing few hours daily. Funniest part? After the operation I played with my friend and boom! 3 escorts in a row...

Playing with friends make game too easy and fun, you should avoid this.

Got a couple with 3 escorts and 4-5 with 2 escorts yesterday don't recall any without at least 1

If we didn't complete the Allied goal it won't really be our fault since objectives are random. Before giving us this type of Operation goal, maybe they should have added an option to the mission setting menu that lets players select which objectives that you can get for atleast one of the 3 rounds.

2 solo's meeting squad goal (Shadow, Kroguard, both Bronze).
3 more missions with folk where we explicitly set out to get squad goal (and AFAIK achieved) including one with a couple of N7 <20's.
Plenty more where I did not see any consumable use.
26 escort missions. 22% of all missions were escorts.

I think we have a decent chance, though I'm less sanguine after reading many others' experiences.

[BioticArm]

for some reason, the drone escorts were a lot more frequent on gold... So we had a choice, either we help with the squad goal by hosting bronzes, or we try to chip in for the community goal... We chose the community goal (but we did do our solo runs prior. at least I hope everyone in that pug did...)

I played about 4 games over the weekend and for 1 mission. I don't really care anyway because the Victory packs are just half assed JEP's anyway. I just want the commendation pack.

[Bekkael]

I got fewer than usual escort missions on multiple difficulties all weekend. I wonder if we aren't meant to fail the community goal?

Then again, I'm sure my experience wasn't exactly the same as everyone else, so perhaps we may have succeeded.

An Operation based on one of the wave objectives WITHOUT increasing the chance of it occurring in a match is quite silly.  Specially on the context of "We will deploy drones to repair damage and investigate the nature of these attacks.", you'd think there'd be more "repair drones" (thus escort missions) than normal.

At least guarantee ONE Escort Objective wave in a given match, and perhaps even slightly increase its percentage of occurrence (as to leaving it at 1 out of 5 (20%) and subject to RNG).

Target is 250k?  I'm expecting a failure.

I'm not really worried about getting the 250k escorts tbh. I had about a dozen of these over the weekend and I'm guessing ME3 has enough players worldwide to ensure that even if everyone had just one escort mission the entire weekend, the goal will still be met.

[dorbeetle]

This weekend I had time to do only one run. I was quite lucky since I managed to solo bronze and got 2 escort missions too \\o/

I was thinking about this, you could make it so we can select which ones we get and reduce/increase the amount of money you get. This would like when you choose the map and the enemy, for each objective you pick, the amount of money gets reduced by a certain amount. The amount of money decreases with the more objectives you pick.

I don't know how multiplayer works between players that have Multiplayer DLC and those that don't, so the following is purely speculation. Assuming that people without Earth DLC are allowed to play in games with people that do, any mission that includes players without Earth DLC may not get escort missions because that is a new feature.

If the above is true, then perhaps we should have focused on Earth maps.

[Clayless]

I'm just back from holiday and I'm gonna be honest I'm sad I missed this.

Not that sad, I mean I'd choose my holiday any day in a heartbeat, but still you know what I mean.

The Earth DLC is free like all the MP DLC have been so who would not have it?

[Garland7A]

Solo'd the squad goal with an N7 Destroyer on giant and also got quite a few escort missions this weekend so we might be in good shape

[DocDAM]

Someone else here speculated on same.

As to why someone might not have the Earth DLC...
Someone who didn't have HD space? Or wasn't aware of the DLC for some reason? Or one of the OCD types here who wanted to raise the odds of getting a certain weapon and forgot to re-install the DLC? Admittedly probably a small subset.

So, I'm curious, how does the software handle this? I assume choosing London/Rio/Van blocks anyone without the Earth-DLC from playing in your match? Ditto if you choose an N7 character??

[I would have hated to play those 3 maps exclusively all weekend. Don't really like any of them that much]

[OO629]

I would love receiving a pack containing only characters and/or weapons (not consumables/mods) for winning the challenge.

[Cathey]

It's quite possible they intend us to fail this mission if they have some DLC incoming or something else planned maybe.

I did the squad challenge just fine but over the games I played at the weekend I only got 1 escort mission.

I'm personally not very optimisic about getting the allied goal. I've only got the escort mission like three times out of all the games I played. Considering I was getting them left and right before the weekend then barely getting them during the event. *sigh* It would be nice if we made it though.

[Damion_ST]

I played a bunch of games (PS3) and used my mic to tell everyone about the event. I had a number og games (about 20 or so) where the FIRST thing someone did was shoot a missle into the wall, or at me... then got kicked once the round was over... Some people need to grow up and not be so ignorant to those of us who want to play to win these weekend events... I also saw 1 Missle Glitcher (N7 about 50 with Valliant X, Typhoon X playing a Demolisher)... ON BRONZE! Like, really????

Same here, though my rate was even lower at about 3 escorts over 15 games - including none of the games I played Sunday.  I almost feel like they turned them off completely...

[pantherdan]

I got an escort every time I played except once, but I even got 2 escorts in one game, so it evened out.

I thought there were extra escorts. I remember the extra Banshees for "Banshee Weekend" and they showed up no matter what two weeks later when we had failed "Banshee Weekend", so I figured they gave tons of escorts for that reason. I don't know why you guys didn't see many escort missions.

[Sandman667]

I did what I could.
A baker's dozen of escorts each day.
