So for the squad goal, if any one in the squad uses those forbidden items, all of us are doomed?

Looks like I'm going to do a Bronze solo for this one.

A lot of solos. Way for Bioware to kill a MP is to make everyone solo it.

[superligerzero]

I can do a bronze solo with using a medigel or two so I'm going to have to think about this a little bit. The only thing I can think is using a vorcha. Where did the vorcha go anyways? They used to be all over the place.

This challenge is asking us to overcome human nature. Hitting those buttons for a consumable has become a force of habit (mine is hitting an ops pack too late when I am already dead). One little accident is all it takes to mess things up for everyone, so I can understand people opting to go solo. So much for a co-op game...

Get together with three of your friends before the mission starts and practice not using the kits! If you stick together it's achievable. As for some never had an escort task, we get them all the time.

Sometimes more than once per run. But I think those who say they never get it are one of two things.

1. People who never downloaded the Earth DLC.

2. People who get it but are not escorting and on the other side of the map random killing people while the rest of the team escorts.

Seriously.... /facepalm. Why make goals counter-intuitive to how people play the game? Beyond that, why have a squad goal where you literally can't track if another player uses a med-pack or ammo pack? Terrible event.

You failed a spot check: Operant conditioning is more effective when the reward is random. If the monkey gets food every time he presses a button, he'll press the button once. If there's a small, random chance of the monkey getting food on the other hand he'll keep pressing the button all day long. This way, you'll have to keep playing all weekend long.

It makes perfect sense; just remember that you are mainly a source of revenue.

I agree with Mr. Spartan 248: Yesterday 3 friends and I ran on gold FBW, did a few pizza deliveries (escorts) and "hardly" used any meds or consumables, so tie up your laces, strap on your omni-tool, shut up and fight!

Soloing on bronze may be the best way of completing the squad goal. Public matches may be... problematic. I can just picture a teamate forgetting about the challenge and using some medi gel out of habit.

[DarkFaerie316]

I think that us PS3 players getting together and adding each other on PSN is a great idea. May be worth saying that you're adding from this site in the add a friend message though, just so we know who is who and who is aware of the goals for this weekend.

Huh... I can already see the trolls popping a ops pack or ammo pack in the last 5 seconds of the extraction round...

Wouldn't matter.  You can't use consumables during the first 10 waves.  Extraction doesn't matter.

[Ladymac9811]

Sticking together and communicating will be key for this mission. We haven't had a hard challenge in awhile. I'm looking forward to it.

Ah, right.

Well, you'd think they would worry less about people who have already bought the game and more about future products. I already didn't buy Leviathan because I thought it was greedy BS to charge additional money for the weapons (5 of which I already have in MP) on top of ten bucks for the DLC.

Stupid events like this do nothing about the time/money I've already spent (though ZERO dollars on packs), but they greatly decrease my good-will towards the company.

Seriously, this is a bad event. People will troll up games and use consumables just to be jerks, and we won't even know until we do or do not get out packs. Solo bronze it is.

[SeismicGravy]

Hmm. Might do a private match with a couple of mates for this one.

Geth Engineer + Geth Turret x 3 = job done.

[AnubisOnly]

That will be good!  But ...all that mp bugs... ;-P
Anyway, looking forward for weekend xD

do solos games count

More than likely a few operations ago I soled a challenge and still got a Com pack.

yah but sometimes they don't count.  just wonderig if they count here. i have a feeling they do but im not certain

[Dup3r]

Then why play a coop game??

Yes of course solo counts. As long as you get through wave 10 without using a consumable.

[bloodhound IV]

Has it been confirmed if the whole squad can’t use
consumables or only your individual character?

When so many people want to do solo, the entire op objective is a fail. A massive fail. And that's before it even starts. Especially when most of those people play Gold regularly. It pretty much excludes newer players who are still learning and improving on bronze. IMO, the whole thing is a bad idea and should never have been created. I always thought the idea of the game was teamwork. This runs counter to that in every imaginable way since not that many play with regular teams and mic use is pretty low. Even I have lost patience with mic use and don't bother.

How about doing more ops that aren't going against the grain of the concept (teamwork) of the MP and how about not setting it up so only the best players (Gold and maybe some silvers) can achieve by going solo, and most of all, how about picking an objective you can know you've accomplished. My God, how hard would that be? Does BW go out of it's way to be a tool or what?

WHY are you whining?

This is to Encourage cooperative play.  If you or others don't trust each other enough to play together and when that paranoia compounds itself, then don't blame Bioware.  You did it to yourselves.

It's going to take some work. Duh.  If these weren't meant to be work or have some level of difficulty, then they would just GIVE us these packs every other week.

THIS operation has a different element of difficulty that extends beyond conventional game machanics. You will have to TRUST each other ...like oh I don't know.. like REAL solders do out in the field?
Stay close, use cover, don't be brash in your tactics and it should be fairly easy.  Or go solo and continue to be a lesser person.

Please read through the first 5 pages of both threads concerning this operation.

 Sorry about that. Just read Chris's post on this. First time posting

I will do one solo run just to cover my ass. I tried 4-5 times in the past but failed the escort mission. What is the easiest way to solo (map / ennemies / build / weapons)? Unfortunately my Adept, Vanguard and Engineer are still at level 1 since the last operation. Thanks.
