"We are seeing a tendency for players to play at lower difficulties in

keep mastering the higher difficulties."

I play Bronze and Silver (occasionally) because I don't play Gold and certainly not Platinium well.  In short, I will never master the higher difficulties.  I have no doubt that there are many, many more ME3 players like me. 

Maybe I can find some friends or good-natured PUG players willing to take me along on a Gold run, use up all of my consumables trying to survive, and make someone at Bioware happy in the process.

Maybe I'll just keep playing Bronze and the occasional Silver because that makes me happy.

Don't care about xp. Make a possible medkit pack purchase and I'm in for gold. Medkits are essential if playing with PUGs. It's the only thing keeping me away from Gold matches atm as I have  to rebuild the stock. Platinum is just plain boring IMHO: boss spawn ad nauseam.

How 'bout credit increase to gold&plat?

Anyway I'm very glad that Bioware pay so much attention to higher difficulties.

bEAware strikes again... delayed again either move it to wednesday or bring it out on tuesday im sure a huge company knows about deadlines ... as for your changes again lets rip the community apart again as with challenges NICE WORK soloing bronze and silver has become my choice of game now mainly because randoms are all doing challenges even friends are so to get a good gold or platinum crew is not easy... now HALO4 AC3 BLACK OP 2 are finding there way into my console more often that this game and im sure more will follow now wouldnt it be a smart move to keep your loyal fans ( even ppl who have played for the last 6 months) not ****** them off to the point of leaving!!!

Why not buy JEP's then?? They give u assured 5 medigels/rockets/ops-pack/thermalclip packs & more if you are lucky. They can also give you 3-4 lvl 3 consumables that u can use. Also they cost only 33k...not much imo.

 At this point, the new date for Balance Changes should be Wednesdays.

It's been like this for the past 3 weeks now, just give yourselves some time and make that the date! It'd be a lot easier for you guys

This week's balance changes will be delayed. We will try to get them out tomorrow.

Here is a preview of some of the changes we are looking at:

• Increasing the XP/Score multipliers for Gold and Platinum difficulties. We are seeing a tendency for players to play at lower difficulties in order to complete challenges, so hopefully this will entice players to keep mastering the higher difficulties.
• Reducing the shield gate cooldown.

I don't think the reason for going to lower difficulties is only a question of multipliers but the fact that, e.g. cerberus challenge, the amount of guardians per game is so low that getting guardian points is just a pain. Qurious to see what you guys cook up, though.

[ELSQuantum0000]

No sweat. I got my Geth Trooper Soldier so I'm happy with what I got right now. Besides, for those who are impatient for this week's multiplayer update, give them some time since Monday was considered a holiday. I think things will go back on normal schedule two weeks from now, since next week's Thanksgiving break, which who knows what will happen. It's the holiday season right now, so there's no absolute rush to get the update out unless something big is really coming.

Holy analwrecking mother of based god Jesus with a serious malignant case of ****** cinnamon.

Another delayed balance change? Well I'll be a monkey's third uncle's cousin's twice and a half removed sister of a family friend's brother's mother's third cousin's pet dog's regular screw.

I'm expecting another delayed balance change next week.

Seriously Bioware? C'mon, quit being silly.

Stop whining like a couple of little ****es. They're not obligated to release these changes on a deadline. Plus, this shouldn't even be that big of a deal. They're JUST balance changes, not your damn paycheck. Just shrug it off and wait one more day.

[RudolfH]

Nothing new here. It would actually be a shocker if they do release on a Tuesday one day...

So if I'm trying to get 200 waves for my Batarian will playing on Gold double the amount of waves I get?

[KrizB]

Don't get stressed over delays, it just so happens things keep popping up around the time period (N7 Day, Halloween, etc) .

Guess what?
Thanksgiving is coming up next week, if they decide to add a challenge/banner, there might be one more delay.

XP boost does nothing for me.
I only play Gold when I need quick credits and right now I keep at least 600k on hand at all times just incase new items or characters released.

Guys, seriously, just say you're going to release your stuff on Wednesday from now on.


Noone is going to die if they're forced to wait another day for balance changes. It's more annoying to have that 'maaaaaaaaybe Tuesday waitnope' every week than to just have it shifted back. If you're a day behind with a week's work ahead of you, you're going to remain a day behind pretty indefinitely. It's cool, we appreciate the effort put into balance changes and new classes and all the awesome new toys you've been giving us and we're not going to lose it if we have to wait another day.

I'm hoping for a fix for spawns in objectives...

Reducing the shield gate cooldown.

Why not blow that completelly out of the water and make it so that the shield actually gates the damage itself... so when the shield goes down, the player becomes immune to damage for the short time, after which if the shield comes back online even for the tinyest amount of time, the player becomes immune without any timer delay ? 
This would also make the Banshee unable to actually insta-kill the shielded players, like they do in the current game which makes the player see the "magnet hand", as the banshee, phantom etc are actually required to make a preparation hit in the close quaters before the insta-kill attack, after which if the player still hangs around they get to make the insta-kill if they player is still in range... but unfortunatly, the preparation hit doesn't always even contact the player that is in close enough to get their shield removed.

Yep, there's a script error in the insta-kill script, it doesn't check if the player it's going to target is the one the preparation hit was made to, it just checks if the banshee actually made the preparation hit !

An official move to Wednesday seems a good idea, I really wouldn't mind myself and I doubt a lot of others would either.

XP = meh.
Credits, or consumables not used on successful extraction = worth it.

But yes i'm guitly of moving down to silver, and even bronze:  trying to use say the GPSMG on Gold is frustration, bronze-ing it, and it's actually good!
So Bioware, the only thing to blame is the implmentation of the challenges.  Fix those maybe?

[LoonySpectre]

More XP means more challenge points for enemies and weapons.

[cagoBHuK]

Just dont delay them, release them on wednesday. No need to post this news on tuesday.

The point is if they are gonna keep "Delaying" them they should just be moved to the day they are always delayed to

heatsink + high caliber barrel + smg amp III and AP IV and you do good on gold. I'm currently doing the smg challenges, and I've noticed the the high velocity barrel is just not good on it. Sure you have to use consumables, but it's worth it. I've scored 120k in 3 games. The state of silver PUGs is worrisome at the moment. Nobody uses medigel, nobody caps objectives etc.
