    Did you get a commendation pack late or something, or was it because of all the "online pass" issues?

    We've been over it a bunch, but A-Bing the two Shepards just makes me dislike her even more. I was listening to the sound files, and MShep wins hands down for better voice, it's not even about the acting, just the voice. I can't stand Old Woman Shepard:

    I wonder if this is related to that new DLC coming out (getting it ready and shit?) or the massive lay-offs from EA. (Probably this.)

    Either this is the beginning of something awesome or the beginning of the end for ME3

    I can't help but feel bad about my high scores, the bottom two would get themselves killed within a minute into each round above 5 (although miraculously we got a full extraction) so it's only natural that points would eventually go to someone but to outscore them by that much makes me feel sad.

    Ahahahahahahaha. I go to launch Origin to check if I'm having the missing online pass thing (haven't played in weeks, Dota 2 is too fun.) Turns out Origin isn't letting people log in just now What was so wrong with Steam EA?

    Top scorers gonna top score

    If half of your team kept getting themselves killed instantly, and you still extracted, then you deserve that

    All I ever think about when I see Saren is the accusation scene where nobody gives a fuck about his geth arm.
    Saren doesn't sport his geth arm in the accusation screen

    at least with Joker's sister Shepard can figure out (or rather, the player can and presumably Shepard will by proxy) that    Joker's sister was the girl the PTSD Asari in Huerta Memorial is talking about when she says the farm was totally scorched without any survivors

    What's worse is    She fucking freaked out about the whole ordeal and if shepard allows her to have a gun she ends up axing herself in the head

    And that is EXACTLY why I don't give two shits about how well I do in MP anymore.

    You spent 25 minutes and got 125k points, AND full extraction on silver and you didn't even get the 30000 credits that make playing silver worth while.

    And you know what really sucks? I can play half assed, be at the bottom of the list, die multiple times a round and STILL get 31000 for my time.

    What is the credit reward based on anyways? It's like a random number generator between a min and max value of the challenge.

    Sorry, but the reason for my frustration is that I expect to be able to buy a premium crate every two silver matches, and when you see that bullshit right there, where you have to play for ANOTHER 25-30 minutes to make 700 credits succeeding in the game feels more like a punishment than an actual reward.

    Edited:

    On a related note, is the EA network down or something?

    Each objective gives a set amount of credits, and gives a bonus amount based on how fast it was completed.

    No that isn't the only thing it's based on. There's a lot of leeway in terms of what you're being told after each wave and what you get. As far as I know the only objectives that give you rewards for a quick completion are the stationary hacking one, the 4 part hack one and the ViP missions.

    That still leaves quite a lot of regular waves in the interim.

    I thought score also played into it somehow, because otherwise what's the point of having it at all? Does it factor into xp calculation or something? Even that it must be weighted really lightly because I usually get around 20-30k score and around 200k xp.

    Welp, you just described the 3 and only objectives, well fucking done.

    Score is only used for experience.

    Oh, and I think I've mentioned this before, but has anyone else gotten the cover bug where your shots do no damage at all to an enemy that is out int the open?

    I've had this in both SP and MP, where I would lean out of cover to shoot, see both a hit indicator, the shot hit the target and the health bar flash, but not actually do any damage?

    I tend to have a little tunnel vision when I'm trying to shoot enemies, and I'm more focused on trying to aim for their head and whatnot, not some flashing bar on the top of the screen telling me I'm not doing anything at all.

    Yeah, only in MP though. I think it's because I had a turret deployed, and I think they block bullets.

    I realize I described most of the objectives, but it seems to me that they don't all add up to what you're supposed to get at the end. That's what I thought anyways.

    I just woke up too.

    Also, those aren't the 3 and only objectives, there is also just the regular 'kill them all' one.
    And in any given match, I get that objective more than any other, and as far as I know it doesn't tell you the reward for completing that wave.

    I get it all the time on firebase dagger. It seems like shot's passing through small openings get blocked at long range for some retarded reason. Although I also get it when I'm in the semicircular control room thing and I try to shoot at people running up the ramp to get at the ladder side.

    The "kill them all waves," as you called them, aren't objectives. Those are just regular waves and give you no money.
    Waves 3, 6, and 10 are the only objective waves.

    Heh, not the worst I've seen; one of our guys clipped through the floor somewhere between the 2-3rd round with Geth, perpetually falling until extraction. I don't know if it was accident or not, as the guy never left the game. It was somewhat strategic, as Geth tried to attack him to no avail (he was able to be shot, but their metallic spines couldn't bend at that angle I suppose).
