250,000 ESCORTS I hardly ever get those and also is the individual goal does that mean no one can use consumables or just the person playing


No one in the party can use consumables.

WTF? It wasn't a "per person" deal, it was ANYONE in your game? If I had known this I would've solo'd a bronze match.

Are you retarded or just incapable of reading? Any ambiguities were ironed out prior to the start of the operation.

If I had to guess it would be retarded and too lazy to read the thread BEFOREHAND.

Made sense to me, if you or someone else used a pack, your chances of success are scuppered, even the individual goal was pretty much the same deal, I didn't even use bonus items like war gear just to make sure.

I don't think progress tracking would be too much of a problem.

Look at all the announcement of the operations :
The materials, announcement and the GUI Template appear from nowhere.

So it may be hard keeping up-to-date with the server and sending the informations, but if we already managed to pick informations from player profiles and send them to the player's multiplayer manifest then this should be easy in reverse.


It depends on what's on the server side, and what's on the player side.
If the change has to be made on the player side, then that would mean a patch would be required.
Server side would require some rewriting of code that I imagine isn't exactly "Hello World".

If they could make a permanent feature that tracked consumable use for each match, then it would not be completely useless beyond the weekend mission.
Imagine if you could see that the guy that just beat you on the scoreboard had used all his consumables to beat your score. It would certainly make me feel better about not topping the list :D


I honestly think it is possible. When you use a consumable, they are deducting it from your account. So all they have to do is find the number of consumables left before the match and after the match. If there is no difference, it means success. 

Bioware can update the multiplayer manifest almost immediately. They can track goals for the Achievements (like Mail Slot, Total Kills, Biotic Explosions...). So tracking squad goal status is definitley feasible, unless the conditions are extremely complex.

Got in about a dozen games, didn't use a consumable on any of them so just hopeful I had at least one where the others didn't too.

Did have a funny one where we all got up to Wave 7, the charging happy Krogan Vanguard got downed then got right up again a couple seconds later and 'The host player has left" came up a split-second after that, heh.

No idea about the extractions. Had a few, 250k is a big number for everyone to get though.

I played with quite a few people who knew the op was on and we added each other. Worked pretty well together and I'm sure we did the squad goal. No matter how many packs I buy, whether recruit, sp's or psp's, I still have crap weapons lol. I mean, my phaeston is still only level 2 and I haven't gotten an upgrade for it in months. I usually get character training and rarely get weapon upgrades or even any weapons. There was no hope for me doing the squad goal alone lol but thanks to all those who did play with me so I could get it.

I think the confusion for everyone was in the description.

It first listed a squad goal then a reward for Individual Goal Success with no reward list for Squad Goal success. Pretty sure I got it though on Friday or Saturday play. No one seemed to care about it come Sunday so I guess they felt the same.

"Squad Goal: Complete up to and including wave 10 on any difficulty without using a consumable (medi-gel, ammo, Ops pack or Cobra missile launcher)
Allied Goal: Complete 250,000 escort missions on any difficulty.
Special Circumstance: None

Individual Goal Success: All individual players awarded a Commendation Pack
Allied Goal Success: All players awarded a Victory Pack"

It was fun though running Silver with no packs as it seemed everyone group I pugged into worked well together with no cowboys off in a corner getting killed alone.

the squad objective was a little obvious, hope i did make it, i want my n7 weapon ^^

I mean, it requiere that you play a lot of game or be sure of the guys you
were playing with(or use high level chara on bronze....

Is that me or the escort mission probability was lowered???

how could so many people be consistently not understanding... it's called a "squad goal" that would mean the whole squad cannot use consumables... I must be too old to be gaming socially or something, there is a serious lack of common sense throughout the bioware social network... and everyone seems to be content to take being reminded of this out on the company... maybe this game is a little bit too smart/advanced/pick a word for the masses of "fans"... crappy, whiny "fans."

I would say there is less common sense throughout any multiplayer platform. I play a lot of MP games and have more than once been like "did he seriously just do that?" I think there are just some people who picked up ME3 for just the multiplayer and nothing more. They don't care about the story, they don't care about the universe, or anything. There are a lot of people I enounter everywhere that only care about the Multiplayer. They don't care about anything else, if the game has multiplayer, they will buy it and not care about anything else. 

Sure there are people who care about that kind of stuff, and I've been rather fortunate to encounter a lot of them. But then again, those people who just play multiplayer to play multiplayer, IMO, are those ones who lack common sense. Are there exceptions, sure, but more often I see people with 1000+ N7 rating, I'm at 850ish, who just go lone wolf. I play as a team, and I really thank battlefield for that.

I did two, both Bronze:
Shadow, Kroguard
I just equipped the Gear slot (Shield V on both).  I used an adrenaline mod on one of them (only the 4 d-pad consumables were verbotten) for pizza deliveries.
