OP is right. How many hours have you mufuckas put in to have all that good shit? This Katana I isn't cutting it. I also don't think I'll be able to sink the amount of time I did for ME3 to unlock all this shit. I've put 34 hrs...just the MP. haven't even played the story yet. I got lucky in opening gold crates and getting ok weapons, but the bulk of common/uncommon has come from basic crates. I've already maxed out common items, unlocked all uncommon items and am half way through maxing uncommon items, just with basci crates. Utilize your power skills in conjunction with your weapon.

I've plaued 3 bronze games so far, and it just feels like it'll take forever to max anything.

I've plaued 3 bronze games so far, and it just feels like it'll take forever to max anything. Gotta do the time in order to get the goods. I mean, I don't bounce around from item to item. I'm pursuing the challenges, so I stay with the same character until I complete the set of challenges. For instance, using M8, a certain biotic/tech power etc. Once completed then I'll move on to the next one. I've now been doing gold runs using the throkin, even though it's ranked one. My character skill is high so it balances out. Also, teammates look at APEX rating too. Doesn't really indicate player skill but it lets others know you've put in time and have a high rate of mission extractions among other things that raise your APEX rating.

I agree that the unlocking rate in MEA is just awful. That fact that 3-4 cards in a basic pack are consumables is ridiculous. If I wanted more supplies I would have bought a supplies pack. Hopefully they come out with a "Character Kit" or "Weapons" packs like they eventually did in ME3.

I've got to agree. Even on gold, credit gain is a bit low. I know matches are shorter, but there's also quite a bit more to unlock. 1 gold game in ME3 got you what, 80k with an extract? Plus you could run them in 20-25 minutes or less. Running the daily missions repeatedly is a decent way to make a bit extra though, even if it does get boring (I'm not gonna play Remnant/Magma again for while). That being said, it doesn't take too much to get to the higher difficulties. Buy basic packs until you have a decently ranked up human and some high level common weapons. A decent level class and one of the better commons at rank X and you're set. I think I started gold at 15 or 16 with only a viper X and it's been (relatively)smooth sailing, even with some newer players hopping in underleveled. Seems easier than ME3 gold, at least. wheres the difference to now? you get 50+ k in ME:A and you need 2 games in ME3 you needed 2 games for the premium pack

Income seems higher to me. You still get creds for fails which alone puts gains ahead of ME3.

I'll admit, I don't know how timings are going to break down yet. So far most of my games have been around 13-15 minutes, but my teams haven't been spectacular. The most important thing is that there is a lot more to unlock now, and unlocks are much more important. I'm sure balancing will fix some of it, but a significant number of weapons as of now are pretty bad at rank I. You also need to get weapon mods to rank X to get everything out them (V before) and you need to get characters to rank X to even get a full build. I probably should've clarified: I feel like progress is a bit slower. The credits you're getting don't feel like they make as much of an impact.

Thats not true. 2 gold games may gave you up to 160k. Platinum game around 140k.

There's not too many credit in the SP either, so this doesn't surprise me at all, typical of Bioware, just like DAI.

The objectives are also harder to get gold stars on, and there are only two. So it makes sense. However gold rewards a little over 50k with 2 silver results, which translates fine to me3mp.
