I think I've been lucky, I've played about 12 matches or so, and only one player used a medi-gel on wave 10. But I don't know if there is a way to tell if OPS packs or ammo packs are used

I'll play some more tomorrow and see what happens

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.


At least you were finally able to get your pack done man.  Just wish we could've played more and actually got past wave 11 without a disconnect.  I agree though, this isn't the only EA server based game that has given me problems like this.  Thought that last match today we actually were going to pull wave 11 off without a disconnect but of course not. UGHH.

No Gloatie, my post is not incorrect. Well, part of it is wrong but the latter part is true. The D-pad consumables are not to be used if going for the squad goal.

did a solo run with a level 8 Infiltrator without using any consumables or even bonuses (weapon/ammo/armor/gear) Bronze on Giant against Cerberus. I will be on again in about 10 hours helping the xbox community do our part towards the victory pack.

Finally I think I made the squad goal in Bronze and Silver (not solo). No one used Rockets or Medi-gel. I just hope so is the case for other two consumables.

So did someone drop the ball? The Op we had that required specific objective missions to be finished, Retrieval, nearly every objective wave was Retrieval and I could definitely guarantee that I would have one per game.

Now with this Op, I've had bouts of 2-3 games without Escort missions at all. If this is the case for the rest of the community I can say this will be a difficult challenge.

Agreed, I was hoping for 1 per mission minimum, but it is what it is...More reason just to churn out bronze matches....looking at 3 matches per hour with lobby time included versus less....

The guy running the Destroyer caused me to think a bit, but just over-all watching of characters leads me to believe I completed this. But is there any way to know for sure? An in-game announcement would have been nice. Using the Galaxy @ War tool-bar would have been an insightful use of the game GUI. But is there anywhere on here that one can find that one has completed the challenges?

Most of the time I have to beat the escort missions off with
a stick. But so far I have only had 2. I hope they kick them into high gear for
the rest of the operation.

I wanna know why since Tuesday the Geth especially seem to be be even more aggressive than the last psycho injection they got and there seems to be more of them? I don't generally have an issue with Silver, it's my favourite difficulty and you don't use up any consumables normally, some of the waves have been a right b****! :P

EDIT: As for Escort Missions, I haven't had any shortage of those =]

So I am almost positive that I completed the challenge but not 100 percent sure I wish there was a way to check if you have completed it.

It's a squad goal that forces you to take trust in your team members. Something RL soldiers are forced to do on a every day basis.

Grow up!

Got a Demolisher myself!

First game I 'hosted' (Bronze) I think we did it.  I actually plugged the mic in and asked that everyone was aware of the task and to not use consumables.  Next game, all going well and BOOM!  Someone uses a missile on an Altas :-(

Hahaha

The real reason is much simpler: Operand conditioning is more effective if the reward is random: If the pressing the button has a small chance of giving a reward, the monkey will keep playing ME3 pressing the button all day long. Since you can't be sure that the squadmates didn't use any ammo packs, you'll just have to keep playing

This is the stupidest operation ever. Especially on PS3 since no one even knows about the damn thing.

This^

acfiz, it's our own lack of trust and fear that would "force" you to go it solo so you can have your "stuff".

I've played 5 games and everyone was a success.  No one once used a consumable.  AND they were a lot of fun.

I do agree with you there, splash screen for PS3, bro! We can't get a match off because people don't know not to use consumables. Does bioware not love us? :crying: </3

If you want to add me on PSN, I'd be happy to play a few matches with you tomorrow. I'll guarrantee that I will not use any consumables and we'll reach the squad goals. My GT is DarkFaerie316. It is hard when a lot of PS3 players are not aware of the op weekend. We can set a private match and those invited will be from this site so we know the score. :-)
