re: Mass Effect 3 - Weekend Challenges

I'm to the point where gold runs are boring. You do the same damn strategy every time. Silvers lead to a lot more chaos from bad decisions and tends to be more interesting for me. I had to finish off a few waves by myself a few times.

Finally got a saber tonight. Seems to hit just a little bit harder than my carnifex. I dont get it. Why is it the only decent assault rifle?

Yeah, I played a couple rounds of silver last night.

I was just playing the Gold thing to get spec packs and get upgrades, which didn't turn out well. I made 15 complete Gold runs last week and didn't get shite in any of the 15 specs packs. I'm starting to beleive they did a rig job on spec packs earned by farming gold.

I assume we failed the weekend challenge. Didn't notice anything new available last night...like a commendation pack or whatever it was supposed to be.

We easily beat the goal. PS3 users were able to join in this time around. I'd put the number around 4.5 million phantoms killed.

When do they spread the loot then?

Depends when they announce the results. I'm on my phone so I can't check the BSN but it should be sometime this evening.

anyone signed up for the MP manifest?

Do you create an EA origins account through their website? Is all of this stuff free?

Yes I got the manifest. It's a nice tool to see what your progress is on each weapon. You do have to have an origin ID though. They gave out the victory packs today but no commendation packs :(

Also the servers went down unexpectedly @ Bioware

I just checked. Ive got no packs, victory or commendation and I extracted from at least two golds. An I know I killed a shite load of Phantoms on every level this weekend.

No packs here.

I did get knocked off the server during level 9 on a gold run last night. No credit for it, but I did lose that 20 minutes and all my equipment.

I wish they'd fix these issues like this. I hate when my health is low so I use a survival pack only to go down immediately and lose my pack.

My favorite issue is when joining a quick match in the middle of the match and hearing bullets fly by and the controller rumbling while still watching a loading screen. By the time the game actually loads you are half dead and have a banshee about to eat you.

Ugh I fricking hate this shite. It's been happening to me more and more, and everytime I put the game back in the case and say I am never playing the shite again....until the next night.

Ha, that happened to me last night. I got tossed into a Gold match vs Geth on FBW on level 3. I was looking at the loading screen and hearing some guy cuss another player for running around like an idiot. I finally joined and ran down to the bottom and found only two players behind the console (apparently the idiot guy left). We ran for four levels with only three players and then another player showed up to help finish it off.

So, I was playing with my Geth infiltrator last night, and I made the decision to equip the Geth Plasma Shotgun and Geth SMG Oh. My. God. I was absolutely wrecking everything thrown my way.

In the past I'd always paired the infiltrator with a sniper rifle. Never again. Shotgun is an absolute must for that class.

I've got the Tactical cloak fully spec'd to do damage. Basically, I would go invisible, literally get right next to the enemy, and let her rip. 1 shotting everything in the game outside of an Atlas, Banshee, or Brute. And I was taking down the brutes in three pulls of the trigger.

Well, I finally got my victory pack.

Still no commendation.

All I had to do was get a full extraction on gold right? Bioware can't help but frick up the simplest of things. I guess it's a good thing that they didn royally frick up the single player or I may begin to think that they were incompetent.

Let me preface this by saying, I have absolutely no idea what it takes to deliver victory and commendation packs in a timely manner and to the appropriate gamertags, BUT I'm willing to bet Bioware is making it look more difficult than it really is.
