Talking about being behind, I wonder what the deal with the Apex Rating thing is. Though I didnt get to play the trial, I played quite substantially today (eight-ish hours) and got to 317. I have friends coming from the trial at 900 who today played for hours less than I did and got to 1,400 (my inventory unlocks are betters than theirs btw). Another dude played almost as much as I did today and got to 50, while being stuck at 0 for like three or so hours playing nonstop.

I played 7 of my 10 hours in MP, dropped or crashed on about a third of my games and got to a rating of 1225.
Granted I had a lot of crates to open because of pre-order, ME3 bonus, DA:I bonus, etc.

well im the real champ, just finished my first 6 hour session which was all bronze.
Apex rating 205 ... wooo
Although I did get the Kroguard in one of my starter packs. I've built him for melee and he's awesome on bronze
Also got one of the asaris, but haven't deployed her yet
Ultimately Cap, its all rng .. do you feel lucky?
Edit: Turns out I was really 285 .. beer goggles

Granted I had a lot of crates to open because of pre-order, ME3 bonus, DA:I bonus, etc. I also got these free Loyalty crates, plus the pretty bountiful Deluxe Edition pack on top of 7 Premium packs that I bought with Andromeda Points, 2 Premium Packs that I got by playing quite a few Silver Matches today as well as a few Advanced, Expert and Basic Packs. I definitely played more than 9 hours overall today, making them quite efficiently (crashed only once) and I am sitting at a rating of 324. People came out of their Trials having played less than that and have ratings above 1k. I guess people who played the Trial may have gotten an extra and apparently continuous boost to their Apex Rating after all.

Didn't they say they were going to take the Apex rating system down to look at it?

Looking at my apex on the new apex app, it says I have played for 22 hours and have 4251, ranked 108 in the world. Challenge rating is 1720, ranked 15 in the world. I pretty much reached extraction in every game I played though, mainly on silver and just bought mainly basic packs to get all the common kits and weapons up. Bought one premium pack but it was a waste of cash.

Well, in two days time I will probably have played as much as you have already played so far, and at this rate I will get to perhaps 1/10 of your ranting. The system is simply broken. Your case obviously is an extreme one. The vast majority of Trial players I am referring to played like 7-10 Bronze games during the Trial, got successful extractions in half of those. They start up the actual game with 800+ Ranting and are apparently amassing numbers pretty fast too. Today alone I played substantially more than most players during trial and I got to 324 points. One dude who played with me today during most of my games got to measly 50 points.

It is very strange, I honestly don't care that much about the apex rating as others have said you could pay your way to the top by unlocking everything. I do like completing the challenges though as at least it shows what you have done and you get a name plate etc. In the end it is all about the having fun in the multiplayer, I have seen even higher apex than me in games and they were honestly not even that good.

A good way to judge "progression" is to compare the Apex rating to the Challenge Rating.
The guy who has a 19245 Apex Rating isn't likely to have completed many challenges (having bought his way to the Apex rating).
Someone who has a reasonable Apex/Challenge ratio is probably playing the game rather than pack buying.

At least you're not European, we can play the 23rd I was tempted to buy a copy for my xbone so I could play it yesterday LOL but then I thought naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.... I'm UK, Origin is telling me release date is tomorrow (22nd) at 11pm. MeetYourNanny tells me he can't play til thursday 12pm.
I think I'll try a VPN tonight.
Oh, bollox. I'll just wait. Whoever thought of staggering the release dates must have had a corn cob up their ass at the time. Twats.

Told friends ME would be back to serious business on Tuesday. How much will I have missed? How screwed am I for not playing the trial? You think you're gonna be behind TOMORROW? I have to wait until NEXT TUESDAY to pick up the game.

Yep. He should see the Salarian Operative unlock sometime next year. I just got him today... Too bad I don't care for the kit - trade for Kineticist? :/ I have him too. I don't really care for his kit either. I prefer the Salarian infiltrator over him.
