Congrats XAN, maybe in another 500 hours I'll have joined you!
....And then there are newbs like me. With more hours, and FAR less to show for it.
I'm not sure whether to call hax, getAlife, or congratulate you, so I'm just going to go with reminding you to have fun, because without that, what is there?
be more in the chat, get draged into plat games, profit, manifest growth.
700 hours is good **** dude, you are lucky. I am at about 1000 and I still have 9 URs to go.
5 of the 9 are the Typhoon. It was at 5 when I finally got my Wraith (last UR I unlocked). My Wraith is now 10. RNGeezus.
Congrats! That's a relatively short time.
should have been 500 hours MAX to max a manifest.
I agree. 500 hours would be a sweet spot for a max manifest. I see many players that got turned away from the game by the RNG store and I can understand them. It really is a frustrating element of the game.
Biower, pls add batch purchasing in ME4 Andermeda.
+1
Congrats, OP! And yeah, 700 hours is ridiculously good.
I'm at 586 hours right now, and I still need 66 more URs. Math tells me it would take me 854 hours at my current pace, which is actually pretty good.

Well, apart from having a few days on (Mostly to help wife with her work), I'd rather play Gold with a moderate team and pull my weight, than get dragged through plat games. I guess my individual match enjoyment is more important to me than my manifest growth, and idly strolling around a map for half an hour, making <60k points is not my idea of fun. Feels like "pity points" for bothering to "show up".
i have more then 700 hours, 99% on gold and plat and im like only halwfay of maxing manifest. the store is such a joke.

Is it?
I think Bioware went over the line a lot. Not everyone is a kid who can or want to play the same game for years daily 2-3 hours. Someone with a job/wife/kids/pets/other hobbies has zero chance to get a decent manifest with only a few hours played weekly. I think that is a very bad approach.
grats, second manifest too?

I agree, it`s much more fun when the matched feel more intense, and you pull a lot of weight. The epic feeling of making it to the scoreboard and have it say wave 11 when the odds are more even.
But on the other hand, playing on a stacked team every now and then is a good way to improve the effectivnes of once play, imo.
well, i think people with modded consoles should start hosting now...Is it?

You mean my PC one? That was maxed in <10 hours. I originally wanted to do it legit, but the lack of decent weapons were more of an annoyance than fun. I was close to max manifest on console and I didn't want to spend another 700-1000 hours to unlock everything.

At first you get dragged, then you will start improving very quickly, because getting carried is a bad feeling and you want to contribute to the team as much as possible. After a couple of days/weeks you'll also be a valuable member of the team and you'll start to have more fun than ever before. Gold will feel easy after that.

congrt
now you will find out shot gun amp III , sniper amp III , cyclonic4 etc
is more difficult than get a ultra rare 
once i get a pc i'll max right away, buff some things that suck, make my talon merc hp 825 with maxed melee tree...etc.You mean my PC one? That was maxed in <10 hours.

I never needed to be carried. After a few days one of my first few packs unlocked me a krogan soldier a crusader(from weekend challange) and a typhoon. From that moment i was constantly playing gold with a no carnage krosol with crusader and typhoon. When i started multi all i wanted was 2 guns: claymore and talon. I remember i waited for almost 3 month until the store unlocked me the claymore. It was literally the last rare gun that i didn't have. Most of my rare guns were already at level 8-9-10 but i didn't even had a level 1 claymore. After a few weeks every spectre/premium spectre pack i opened and didn't unlocked me the claymore was sheer frustration for me. Then i waited for the talon like half a year. Again, it was like almost the last UR gun that was unlocked for me. That time i had shitload of free time and could play hours almost every day. So i could earn lots of credits. But i don't see myself playing with ME:A that much, i won't have the time any more. This system favours kids who have unlimited amount of playing time.
Congrats, and as many have said, 708 is very good time to max. My xbox was over 1100 to max.
You will soon realize that you are still a scrub. This is normal.

Kids, huh?!
Congrats OP, it took you 1000 hours less than me, give or take a few hours. Seems like you had some good people helping you out. I'm not keen on Plat, and I never got sucked into the concept of grinding for either credits or CP. I just enjoy playing, and was happy to 'waste' credits on VPs, as Respec Cards were more important to me than weapon upgrades. It took me a full 1000 hours of exclusively Gold play on top of the 700 I'd already played on Bronze and Silver, and I'm not sure any BSNer has claimed to have taken longer than me, at 1690 hours.
It's probably worth saying that I agree with everyone who thinks the RNG Store is by far the worst, most frustrating aspect of the game. Please let them make it better next time around.
Wow, 700 hours is good dude. It took me around 1000 (maxed just before Reckoning and about two months after) and I had used a gift card before as well as the Commendation packs and the Gift pack.
Congratz, have you done the obligatory TGI Harrier w all level 4 equipment & Armored Compartments bronze game with 3 pug's yet?
Is it?

When I said "good", I meant in relation to how long it takes other people on average. I totally agree with your point. I have been playing this game since a month after release, taking very few breaks to play other games, and I have less than 600 hours (to go along with 4.5 single player campaigns). It's just a matter of not having a lot of free time. I should have a maxed manifest by now, by any reasonable standard. I have gotten ridiculously lucky with the RNG store, and I had the benefit of the weekly challenges to probably pad my UR total by about 15-20, and I'm still not that close to being maxed. There are people with 2x as many hours as me who still don't have theirs maxed. That's unacceptable.

maybe respect the casual gamer more please.
and im not talking about hardcore vs casual. even if i will play only a few hours per week or a month i'll play that on gold.
