The closest I got on gold was 20:11 - at that point I just wanted to breeze through it on bronze. Luckily I found a lobby where the players seemed to understand that extraction = good (even I knew that when I started out playing the game)!

[SierraGHOSTN7]

Fastest gold - 18 something, longest gold 38 mins... omg this was a hell
average gold 21-27 mins
done about 20 successful gold matches, one bronze... several failed gold matches
SO FAR
tomorrow i plan to 'farm' about 1-2 mln
so yeah, we should sure make this challenge, especially when everyone tries to get money for the dlc

There has been a lot of disconnect this weekend though. Somethin' aint right.

Maybe the extra player load is actually causing the servers to disconnect more. Maybe the crappy servers can't handle the load lol!

Not really. I got today 3 disconnects and it NEVER happens to me.
And those weren't even disconnects.
I was just disconnected from Origin not Mass Effect.
Origin got some problems?

Bronze makes me cry.

Seriously get in the escort you bronze idiots. Taking 3 mins to solo power it across a map isnt good for my sub 20 min extraction.

Best off on Silver with some none morons.

I just came off a frustrating Bronze run. Vancouver/ Geth. Various oddballs, including a Human Soldier with a GPR (he wasn't too bad, Concuss Spam). Team wasn't terrible but just not very awake.

Wave 6, Retrieval.. first one was ok, second one the team forgot and I was hustling to it when someone else beat me to it. So I covered him down and ran into the teeth of some serious Geth firepower. Another teammate got floored, and guess what? Carrier dumped the load and went back to revive.

...

So I went for the objective but had the usual "A" button problem, picked it up only to get floored, and got stomped out waiting for revival from a bunch of teammates right beside me trying to rambo. Without picking up the objective. Urgh. Eventually they wised up and moved it into the zone.

End up we did a Full Extraction at 20:07. Urgh urgh urgh. All that work for nothing..

So I'm not the only one getting server drop issues. Interesting. It's only cost me two games so far, but I understand it's worse for some others.

At any rate, I still plugging away for the allied goal and stockpiling credits for the DLC.

[Creator Limbs]

Got lumped into a silver match with people who didn't seem to care about the objectives at all. Thank goodness I had a friend in the match, otherwise we probably wouldn't have made extraction (I was actually the only one who made it in time. Jesus.)

You're welcome. It should be real easy to do the squad goal if you have not done it yet, but good luck regardless.

for me.. it is always origin that causes the disconnection.

also, is MP down or what? im getting "GALAXY MAP IS OFFLINE"

Used a Kroguard, did the challenge on Bronze in 15 minutes. Back to gold, heh. I think we should smoke the community goal, but I've been wrong before.

My bet is it's related to FIFA 13's release.

disconnections have been constant both sept and october.. I dont think its related to FIFA.

[Legendary Chop Chop]

Probably the easiest one yet if you take the Bronze route for the guaranteed victory, which I did. Not at all complaining about this, getting the operation packs are awesome.

Got a whole extraction done within 12 minutes with 4 friends on Bronze, 16 on Silver.

I've done about 4 bronze matches, all 14-17 minutes long with full extractions. There seem to be a lot of low (below 100) and high (over 1500) N7 players in bronze!

Tried several silver matches, so far I dont think any have gone sub 20min, one was SO close there seem to be a lot of low n7 in silver matches who seem to get decent kill scores (even if last) but they keep dying every wave.

Luck of the draw. I have seen a wide spread in N7 on bronze. Obviously no problems getting in under 20 mins. On silver I was lucky with several experienced players over a few games. All under the 20 mins. The gold under 20 is eluding me so far. I know that is not in the squad goal, but it would be nice to get it on three levels.

I'm not even going to try attempting it on gold. But I'm annoyed i havent managed it on silver.

It's cheap and easy, but try searching for Glacier.  Fastest time with a PUG glacier/cerb/gold run yesterday was ~14o or 15 min or something... well under 20mins anyway... with a PUG... 

[NewStrings]

My first game... Gold, Cerberus, Glacier. Four infiltrators. Total strangers, no voice chat. 15 minutes! It actually felt like a long game, I was sure it was about half an hour. Nice surprise to find it came in so short.

I personally find it's a lot easier to get short times on Gold than on Silver. Silver players tend to be those who are just about good enough for bronze but nowhere near good enough for gold. Gold players, on the other hand, typically know what they're doing. I never try Silver for anything. It's always the hardest because it always has the worst team relative to the quality of the enemy.

What do you guys think about the 200,000 full matches for allied? I know it's between 3 systems, but I have no idea what the player base is at now. Squad goal counts toward allied so that helps. I just feel like a lot of the ops that have goals in the 100s of 1000s seem to fall short. Wonder what the punishment for the next op will be if we fail. I'm thinking all objectives will be hack objectives? Eviiiilll

That sounds like a good plan. I was carrying bags for an eternity across giant and hydra. The extra time is obviously is significant.

[Pathetisad]

Two or more Vorcha on glacier/cerberus/gold and you should definately be able to complete in ~15 minutes.

Is it full matches? It says "waves" and Chris said full extraction not required. Considering each successful extraction is at least 10 waves out of all players through all consoles I would say that there's a pretty good shot of meeting the goal.

Technically, he said "extraction waves" of which there is only one per match.  If it was so close taking down 250,000 mechs (of which there are two per match on bronze, 6 or so on silver and a never ending stream on gold), it may not be as easy as one might think, especially with FIFA, Borderlands, and Resident Evil 6 out there stealing players from the Allied Forces.

Dont give them ideas, some maps have the worst hack spots ever.

~Thinks of Firebase White Landing pad location, where the extraction is at.~

[ZerebusPrime]

The Firebase White landing pad can be held quite effectively by a team of two or three Destroyers and one or two Demolishers, actually.

Anyway, I've noticed an uptick in people not using missiles, equipment, or caring about extraction. I fear that the desire for credits may be outweighing the allied goal.
