I got in with a group ranging from 500 to 900.

I'm surprised they let me stay. I did bust some phantom arse with my valiant though. Pulled my weight.

I've been playing with some dudes ranked in the top 50 they have Paladin 8s and Wraith 6s and shite. Needless to say I have N7 rank penis envy.

Have you seen how fast those frickers can move? Hunter mode and tactical cloak is retarded. Turns those frickers into Usain Bolt.

Mabye a dumb question, but I'll ask it anyway.

I geared up for another shot at Gold last night (I have only four Gold pickups on my belt). We were going against Cerberus and I had two +3000 N7 levels on my team (the other was a scrub and I'm level 180). We ran all the way to level 10 with only a few close calls. On level 10 we get the hack thing where you stay in the one area and get hammered. The two +3000 level guys pretty much give up and die out what seemed to be on purpose and we go down on level 10.

I still got 75,000 credits. Is this some kind of cheat or something?

I'm feeling really stupid right now.

As long as you finish the objective you get the money, whether or not you survive the wave. My crew always dies out after we complete the wave 10 objective. I think extraction is pointless I've already gotten the unwavering achievement.

Huh, I didn't know that.

Is that on Gold only?

I was always thinking you had to get the level 11 evac to earn top credits.

Here is operation EXORCIST for this weekend.

I like the sound of this one. Should be fun.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
When it comes to retrieving classified data, Cerberus has been beating the allied forces to the punch. New intelligence has tipped us off to one of their offensives, and it is time to give the N7 teams the payback they want.

Allied Goal: Kill 1,000,000 Cerberus Phantoms
Squad Goal: Survive until extraction on any map and any enemy on Gold difficulty.

Successful completion of the Allied Goal will grant all players a Victory Pack.
Successful completion of the squad goal awards a Commendation Pack to all squadmates.

Operation Exorcist will run from 6:00PM PST, Friday April 27th until 5:00AM PST, Monday April 30th. Exorcist will be available on PC and Xbox 360 only. Please remember to set “Upload Gameplay Feedback” to “on” in the online options to be able to participate in Operation Exorcist.

Im so there. I hate phantoms with a passion.

As for extraction on gold. Its useless. All it awards is extra exp. once you get the cash from wave ten it doesnt matter.

I feel you on that. The group of guys I play with can beat it from wave one to full extraction in 26 minutes.

Please pardon my ignorance, but I have been playing MP for a couple weeks and have leveled and promoted a few times, and my N7 ranking is only around 100. How are these guys in the 3000-4000 range getting that high? Is there another way to contribute to your ranking besides simply leveling up and promoting the classes over and over?

It's either glitching or they haven't seen the sun since release.

Either way, it's pathetic.

I made three Gold runs in a row last night. Used that Geth trick on Firebase White and it was pretty easy.

I had enough cash to purchase four spec packs

The four spec packs contained 2 character trainings and 2 harpoon advances.

What is the Geth trick? We used a certain team on Firebase White. I was just a lowly engineer who kept casting decoy and getting some secondary explosions off of the decoy and scorpion pistol.

I know it's asking a lot, but would some one be able to lay out the Gold strategy for firebase white?

Also, what is this Geth Trick?

It's an easier way to beat the Geth on Gold.

Choose Firebase White on Gold settings.When you do pretty much the other three players are there for the same reason and know what to do.

You need at least one Salarian eng to cast decoy and at least one infiltrator to carry out the possible objectives when that level comes. If someone already has these two classes covered, a good Geth Eng with flame turret works good.

You go down to the bottom level right off and everyone camps behind the two cosoles. The Geth always spawn in front of you and only come in the two sides in front of the consoles. The Salarian keeps casting his decoy and the Geth mainly attack it. Just mow them down and take the easy credits.

The objectives is when it can get tough.

Here is a video on some people doing it.
