Maybe there isn't much they can do to make the special weekend missions original but they seem to be let's see how many Blaze Hydras, Destroyers, Ascendants, Beserkers etc we can throw into the last 4 waves and get away with it.
To make it even less original there isn't even a bonus associated with it, it's a flat 10 mission points.
Any suggestions for something original welcomed because atm I'm starting to think why bother with them all they seem to be is about cramming as many bosses in to try and kill you off or run your supplies down with bosses appearing all over the place. :heh:

I'll get the ball rolling on suggestions to try and get those creative juices flowing How about 6 waves of special missions, hack, retrieve etc and then extraction or how about stringing different mission areas together to make it seem like you are moving through different areas to catch up with something. Over to you guys and gals

You must be new. Hi im Ronnie! Welcome to the land of shattered expectations and broken dreams, where all manner of uselessness and sheer "disappoint" are always on the menu and served with 3 day old rancid donkey milk!

Enjoy it while you can! At least they are doing "special missions" at all. At some point all support for this game will disappear, especially since there is no DLC, or even a chance of another "patch".

At least they are not quite done with the weekend missions. I am happy for that alone.

Yeah... It's like they just don't even try anymore. At first there was some sort of slight story connection between every weekend's missions that was given in video briefings and artwork. Then the videos stopped. Then the missions stopped being connected with each other. Finally there isn't any new artwork at all... It's like random missions...

As much as I try to get into it and play, MEAMP is just a total chore to play. 7 cheap waves where each enemy does as much damage per shot as a ME3 Platinum Collector Captain and if you manage to avoid going down like a sack of potatoes you're rewarded with a krogan spawning behind you like its COD and then a rabid dog/drone constantly hugging you like it's RE5 with Elton John for zombies. Then the lame ass apex mission, with VERY few exclusions are utter garbage. Too much focus on lolsilver and gold+ players are disregarded so there's the cheap ass 10 MF and 10% reward increase. OH LOOK OUT I'M SWIMMING IN CREDS NOW BOI!! In ME3, you faced increased enemies, longer extractions, mixed factions, focused attacks, actual MISSIONS. Your reward was enough creds to buy a few packs AND an N7 gun in addition to having a chance to change the variables on the enemies you'll face. In "the new galaxy" this shit is low energy. We couldn't even get an animal or Roekaar faction permanently.

However, it seems that they also made the enemies as hard as in a Platinum level, even in Silver.

That was the weirdest silver I ever played though. I'm not going to lie, I actually liked it. Survival waves aren't worthy of credits. I'd really like a mode where every wave is an objective.

I enjoyed it, as well as its predecessor, the Outlaw "Enemy of My Enemy" ...
It's fun. Mixed factions, like Platinum, but at the Silver level of difficulty, so almost anyone can join a PUG and play.
To be blunt, I think they dumbed down the bosses ... a bit too easy to take down Hydras, Destroyers and Ascendants (the Ascendents have been dumbed down overall, much easier to deal with for the last couple of weeks) ... so while I think it is a lot of fun, it's not quite a straight up Silver difficulty ... and for sure, not Gold or Platinum.
Fully expect a Kett version to follow (Uplifting the Wretched?) ... waves with multiple Fiends and Ascendants, lots of Anointeds, "Scary" Berserkers and of course, elements of all the other factions.
After the Kett version, expect one with 11 waves ... objectives on all the even waves, delayed extraction ... who knows what else. I think the folks doing the caretaker job on MP are having a bit of fun and doing what they can, server side, to make things fun for us. Stuff that's broken will mostly stay broken, but server side creativity is still possible. Wish they would do some of the holiday themes that ME3MP did ... missed opportunity to not have a Halloween, Thanksgiving or N7 Day theme.

They could at least give a reward pack every week. Anyone still playing should be rewarded with mad loot.

Again, they're still prioritizing lolsilver. Give me a fucking reward worth chasing for credits. Anytime I see that shit I just send an Apex team. It's hard for me to continue playing because I want to, but it's just so damned tedious now. Taking a naked Drell Adept into a Geth Platinum offers a hell of a lot more fun factor because at least you can laugh at the cheese rather than constant frustration.

I have actually really enjoyed the 3 upgraded silver missions, though I do wish there were more credits to be had.

If you play Warframe (a free to play coop PvE game) you get a daily login reward, just for showing up. At least DE values their continuing players to give them something for being there.
Does Biower/EA value their players?
What do you think?

Some of the Warframe login rewards include unique guns and equipment, and coupons for up to 75% off DLC. I may or may not have bought the biggest points package offered after getting a 75% off coupon the other day.

You guys complained, so they obviously read the board and went back to a very old apex mission.

GT5 gave me 5 rare colors everyday for logging in and a Lotus Esprit V8 for my birthday The Namcops gave me Geese Howard The Kingdom of Lucis gives me 5 bonus quests with abundant EXP on a daily basis.
In the new galaxy, I got a Viper S IX Bulwark mark II with a siphon barrel rank VI.
