Well, I've completed a few matches in which I'm pretty sure nobody used consumables. Can't be sure though. I might add a couple of PS3 players who have posted on this forum, to increase my chances.

For anybody still worried about not completing the goal, try krogan soldier (specced for max shields and health, weapon damage, max inferno grenades, barrier for damage reduction, and a shield booster gear, so you have like 3k or more shields) on firebase ghost with geth on bronze. The match will take like twenty minutes, it's just you, soloing it, and it's seriously actually hard to lose. Just do that and you'll have it over with and be sure you succeeded.

Suggestions for weapons: N7 Typhoon and N7 Crusader, so you have a long range (N7 crusader) precision weapon (meaning get headshots) and a huge damage output (Typhoon) weapon for taking down primes.

I made it alone on bronze.

[tubby_no_g]

Can some please clarify that solo run's are OK, done my first solo bronze run with a krogan, my god it was easy. Didn't use any consumables. So I should be good for a commendation pack.

Please add pikeman1000 on PSN. We all kept getting disconnected yesterday. So much so it was disgusting. We kept getting cut off in wave 11, Even though we made it past wave 10 somehow and don't think any of the matches will count.

The squad goal is the height of stupidity. Didn't quite think it through all the way? A SQUAD goal that forces people to play solo. Double nice. Bioware, here are some ideas that could have made this better:

1. Put a notification box somewhere we can see letting us know when goals are completed (squad and allied).

2. Could have made it the allied goal with the incentive of an increase to 6 cobra missles in victory pack. Sure the goal would be nearly impossible, but would give more people more incentive to participate the whole event and not just be out to just get their own reward.

3. Make the requirement be 2 or 3 people in squad not using consumables so an ignorant/greifer/just doesn't care type player could not ruin it for other people.

4. Disable consumables for the weekend or give an option to select for them to be disabled when creating the match. An easy way to program this would be to add 3 new factions to choose as enemies. Event Cerberus, Event Geth, Event Reapers. You could use this in future events to create more complicated events that force certain conditions on us.

5. Done something else.

6. MAKE IT SO YOUR SERVERS WORK ON PS3. I AM GOING TO BE TAKING THIS FURTHER BUT AM TOO ANGRY TO EVEN WRITE.

Just solo-ed Bronze with my Quarian Male Infiltrator with his trusty Saber IV against the Geth on Firebase White, piece of cake ^^ Bring on the Arc Grenade!!
Even had an escort mission in it, so helped the Community goal too!

I played a few matches with some friends I know didn't use consumables. There weren't 4 of us, but we'll see if that counts well enough. The games I did play on Silver and Gold had players popping consumables like vitamins. I like this goal, so I'm actually not going to use consumables during this time. It's an interesting challenge. I just wish the community would get more into it. I will definitely get a private, 4 player match in and a solo run for good measure before the operation expires. If anyone runs across me on live you can be sure I'm not going to be ruining this operation for you at all.

[Frimar21]

Ok, if solo count, it's done.. And with an escort mission too (on wave 10!)
Then I get back to normal opened party, and there were a lot of people using consumables... A lot of them... So I wonder how could Bioware give more visibility to these weekends.. Too often we failed because many games were not completed according to the goals...
More banner? An in-game popup? A leader table that show the progress would also help.. So people knows that something is running besides normal games..

Yah, this is a never-ending topic. I'm on PS3, and don't get any notifications. Apparently PCs and XBOX get a splash-image with the weekend operation!

There should be a constant marker (on all systems) on the multiplayer screen that shows the current operation.

[DarkFaerie316]

That would rock if they did that!!!! A lot of the ppl that joined my matches last night used consumables and I don't think they were aware of the weekend op. I don't have a mic (baby/toddler + mic = broken mic) so I couldn't tell them :-( I'll be online in a couple of hours (after I wrestle joypad away from hubby) and will be setting up a private match and inviting those who added me for this weekend. Hope to play with you guys soon :-)

Confirmed.  See Chris's post in the similar announcement topic in the MP forum.  Click on the blue BIOWARE.
(since he mentions 1,2,3, or 4, clearly a solo is okay)

Correct. The squad (whether 1, 2, 3 or 4 person squads) cannot use consumables.

Per Bioware, it is okay to use the consumable ammo/weapon/armor items for the Squad goal. Just not the "D-pad" 4 consumables (missiles, medigel, clips, OPS):

Do ammo powers, gear, ect. count as consumables?

No, they do not count as consumables.

Don't worry about not being able to see their D-pad consumables. If you see a teammate use missiles or revive themselves, then you know the squad goal is down the toilet.

Just to save some people grief, this is incorrect.  

Priestly clarifies on the first page of this thread that consumables for this challenge mean Thermal Clips, Ops Survival Packs, Medi-Gel and Cobra Missiles.

Single use mods to armor, weapons and ammo are o.k.! (I'm not using them, as I see this weekend as an opportunity to build up my consumables store.)

Squad size doesn't matter either.

If you are fussing about whether you made the squad goal or not, just relax.  With the exception of PS3 players, I am sure with a half a dozen matches you will make it.  Run six Bronze over the weekend. That's an hour and a half. (There should be plenty of people able to do Silver without consumables now, but I wouldn't expect it as much as the matches get harder.)

And yes, you can always solo it. Priestly made it clear, also, that squad size doesn't matter.

...But this is a co-op game. This challenge tests our ability and will to cooperate...

[Neptin]

Met the squad goal!

I've done a solo bronze with my Geth Engineer and some matches with people on bronze (at least three) and silver ( one) without using consumables.

So if i use medigel at 11 wave will it count?

[JohannRSA]

The ones that get me worked up are the players that run of on their own and get killed.
They then use a medi-gel before the team can get to them.
This has happened on wave 10 so many times today lol.

Lots of new players on today. BF3 soldier lvl 14 N7 14 every where.

[Mindfane]

Tried over 12 times. Someone uses Rockets on wave 10 everytime.

Yip me too.
An Atlas had one bar of armor left and a player shot it with a missile. RAGE!!!!!!

[Corvus Black]

with every operation an achievment must be added to the game. that way we can keep track of our operation's status

[Mythology1908]

I've completed a few matches, now just wait the reward =)

[thanos81]

wondering if we can come to an agreement or something hit ready twice if you are aware of the operation and are mice=less. Lucked out last night a person i had added simply because he/she was good logged on and i texted him/her the mission and we agreed to do a private session, which was successful.
