Its been over a year now and 100s of thousands of Alliance troopers have been trying to secure the area/capture vital resouces/take back the target. In all that time, has any squad ever managed to actually succeed? Has any squad ever left the target NOT overrun by the enemy? Should the Alliance rethink its strategy?
Has anyone ever "secured the area"?

No, the alliance knows they can't win this battle in the long run. All they are trying to do is to buy time so that the Crucible can be completed and we can be given a 3 colour choice by the Bratalyst.
All of us boots on the ground grunts are expendable.

It doesn't matter, the ending ruins MP and makes it no fun.

I was successfull every time I extracted. It seems that once we retreat all emenies get killed by space magic :-)
Maybe the Alliance should rethink their strategy and retreat earlier ;-)

As long as some guy keeps leaving that fleet weapons data in a random house on benning while the geth are there, we must fight.

Well, what is supposedly going on is all your MP games are simulations that are run in prep for 'the big battle' and that is why when you promote your Level 20, they are supposed to go off running to the real front and you start training another.
That is why it is important to repeatedly know there is no time for aerial bombardment. And to have ammo boxes every 5 feet. And to train with volus who have no intention of ever fighting unless they are stupid. And not train with Salarians much. But also to train with or as low level EDI (every marine wants to fight with sexibot). And to fight Collectors which will never happen. etc.

Hmm. So we are preparing our troops psychologically for their eventual defeat at the hands of star child? I guess that makes sense. Wouldn't want them to blow a gasket like this guy.

I make sure my area is secured before I jump off the shuttle.

When we first found the missile glitch, I'm pretty sure everything was decimated by the time our shuttle arrived.
Really, the Alliance just needs to manufacture more missiles.

This is why rage-quitters are so undervalued. They're unfairly villified for nothing more than trying to win the war faster and save billions of lives.

Nah, but remember: multiplayer is about the fight to survive. I would like to think, that at least my Asari Huntress that got me the Lone Wolf Banner today survives till that damn crucible is ready. Not so sure about my other kits though after the game trolled me multiple times on gold wave 10 while trying to solo...
Though as long as those kits stay in groups with other experienced players, there might be a chance for them. Maybe they figure it out at some point...

I wouldn't mind being told the truth. "We're dropping you into a hot zone"? Then where's all the baddies?

I see. So we are just the bait designed to lure the enemy in so the Alliance can nuke them from orbit? Sound like TIM may be in charge of the Alliance as well as Cerberus.
