Hey Bioware, would it be possible to get an allied goal status update at some point? I know the telemetry is a time consuming process, but if you can give us an idea of where we stand, that would be awesome.

I've gotten in 14 Vorcha/Turian/Batarian extractions so far, gonna stick with these characters until the op is over.

How much extractions do we complete before the operation is over?

Knocked out the solo objective in two FBWGG rounds. I would've done it in one, except for the "contributions" of my supporting team of randoms:

- Kroguard who only used heavy melee. Poorly.
- N7 Destroyer who refused to use any cover. SPOILER: He died a lot.
- Phoenix Adept who managed to accrue a whopping 12,000 points through seven rounds.

I really wish my ME3-playing friends were on Xbox instead of PC and PS3.

Also, I think my Commendation Pack was glitched. There was a Valiant in it. CPs are only ever supposed to give out Eagles, right?

Yeah, that is weird. Mine had an Eagle VII, as expected.

What does a guy have to do to get a Hurricane, ugh. I got an Eagle as well, which I didn't have before so I shouldn't complain. However I'm primarily a biotics player and have been waiting on the Hurricane for weeks.

Anyway, had the individual goal in two rounds on Gold with the Turian Ghost. I've tried the Vorcha and Batarian classes and don't really care for any of them (playing them anyway for achievements). Will continue to for the rest of the weekend, but it sure would be nice if Bioware would post a progress bar.

If only they let players trade their weapons, equipment, characters! Yes, Allied goal status update would be nice, Bioware, thanks!

This operation is a great moment for me, to complete 200 waves with Vorcha sentinel, soldier, Batarian sentinel and soldier.

And also i get Hurricane VIII LVL. Only two operations and i will have Hurricane in X. ^^

Yesterday I had tons of people playing the right races. Probably saw (assuming it's individual characters that count) at least 100 eligible extractions (played 20 or 30 matches that all had at least two of us, most had three or four with full extractions).

Today, not only am I running into hardly anyone who is playing the right characters, but I've seen several (myself included) get kicked the second they hit a lobby with the right race. I figured someone just didn't like a loadout until I heard someone on the mic flat out say they wouldn't play with anyone playing the races for this weekend's challenge. So I guess the trolls who actively work against challenge wins didn't go away while I couldn't play for two months. Poopy.

Wow, really? Lame. LOL, I guess they don't want the extra revival packs. Some people don't get enough oxygen.  And that was on PC huh? wooOOooonderful...

lol.. so much for the "master race" HA! They've mastered "fail" pretty well though.:wizard:

No it was on xbox...so you know, no real surprise. I so wish I had gotten this game on PC to begin with but alas my imports were on the copies I had borrowed for console from a roomie. Eventually, I'll probably buy the whole shebang again for PC... I'm not a great console gamer.

Hurricane II in mine... I've been playing as the allied goal races all weekend and have seen a bunch do the same, but yeah an update would be nice, if it's at all possible. I am pretty terrible with my Vorcha, lol...

Well I'm on 29/30 extractions (got sync-killed on Wave 11 with one game) with the eligible races at this point. The rest of you better do that other 49,771!

Got a Valiant IV too for my Comm pack, so happy-ish. Still no Hurricane...

Got a Crusader IV (meh) playing Turian Havoc in 2 solo bronze runs on Ghost against Geth. Have played him in multiple silver PUGs since and I too have noticed lack of eligible races (xbox). What up wid dat?? Don't people want the Victory Pack? Oh well, I try to do my part.

Call me crazy, but I'm still having flashbacks to Operation Broadside and other vaguely-worded operations that Bioware decided to interpret differently than everyone on BSN. I'm not counting on an increase in Ops Packs (which often don't work as advertised, anyway).

I had no problems yesterday as well (1-2 of the challenge races in every game) but I'm surprised about that last part.  I'll see if I have the same experience on the xbox this afternoon.

It got better later on in the morning (west coast US here) but it's the boyfriend's turn on xbox so I have no idea how it is now.  And to be fair, the two people I heard on the mic explain the kicks may not have actually been actively trying to mess with the challenge, they might just be dumb/weird.  The one guy said that he won't play with any Turians and other said the same about vorcha.  The anti-Turian guy was playing one of the n7 humans so maybe he was just going for extreme roleplay?  Actually that would be kind of funny and I'd feel much better about it. 

I suspect (but am not certain) that many of the non-specified kicks I saw attempted (or the two times I got kicked) were initiated becuase of the character being played because the x showed up as soon as a challenge race hit the lobby but not when any other character did.  If that makes any sense.   Put another way, I'm really just guessing.

Hm.  Reminds me of when I was in the SCA YEEAAARSSS ago.  There were folks like me that were on the "edge" that enjoyed "heavy" fighting and the other stuff.  But there were always a few that were hardcore that truth betold were a bit unstable and could have benefited from some real councelling.  When exacapism becomes the salve personal issues, all is NOT well.  The same is true of the "gaming community".  ...not unlike drinking in some regards ... but wow.. enough of that rabbithole.  I'll completely derail this thread.

Cheers.
