Oh yeah! 4/20 better deliver my "special brownies" to the LZ so everyone gets one! One time Fritz was going to "trick me into eating pot brownies" and made a batch and stuck them in my refrigerator. Too bad he baked a giant leaf into the surface for decoration. How could I not know they were pot brownies. What a moron. LOL!!!! That is AWESOME!

Am I the only one who never bothers with in-game Apex mission and have all my Apex missions handled by strike teams?

I only thought Apex missions were challenges with some restrictions with slightly increased rewards.

Am I the only one who never bothers with in-game Apex mission and have all my Apex missions handled by Apex teams? I like quite a few of the modifiers. The +800 percent ammo/power cells one makes HSols hilarious (spec for CD free CS). Throwing on a Power Cap booster gave me 15 nades and 17 CS shots, with 5 ammo packs to refill them. In the current gold one, I damn near doubled second in score one match, which is not something I'm typically capable of. The +50 percent weapon damage ones make good weapons golden, and let you take in average weapons to gold and perform well. Those have definitely helped freshen up the diversity of weapons I'm playing with. Otherwise, I'm almost entirely running Gold missions normally, so the one Bronze and Silver APEX missions a day give me an excuse to level up the kits I haven't played as much. Though I only have one sub-5 level kit left now. Since I don't have all the map Challenges done either, they're a good excuse to knock out another 7 waves for those when it's a map that isn't done.

I remember back close to launch ME3 MP had a weekend event that required killing banshees, the community failed, and I think afterwards banshees spawned at random in the other factions. It was fun, even back then when I was still just playing bronze. These weekend events are pretty inane by comparison. They don't really feel like community events in the same way that the ME3 MP ones did.

Yeah, DAIMP had an event where the factions got mixed up (before they added that as a 'normal' option). I don't remember what the fluff justification was for it, but it was pretty fun.
Although I do worry about Kett Destined making everything invisible. Invisible Observers? Blech!

They only mixed factions once before Platinum, but the "reason" for it is that the community failed to meet the overall goal one weekend, and the "punishment" was that next weekend the event included Banshees randomly appearing in all matches with all factions. It was amazing, and it went live with no warning, so people started freaking out thinking they game was broken. We joked about wanting to fail more community goals because it was so much fun.

They only mixed factions once before Platinum, but the "reason" for it is that the community failed to meet the overall goal one weekend, and the "punishment" was that next weekend the event included Banshees randomly appearing in all matches with all factions. Sadly I did not start playing ME3MP until well after all the weekly challenges (and balancing) was complete. I missed out on that for better and for worse. Regarding the 'failed' mission, now that you mention it, that might have been the reasoning in DAIMP as well. Maybe something like we were supposed to kill a bunch of (the big Demon guy, I don't remember the enemy names from such a bland game) and we didn't, so Demons started showing up in other factions. Basically copied from the Banshee event. Maybe? Or maybe I am just conflating DAIMP with what you just told me. Anyway, I don't care what the reasoning, I just want something fun in MEAMP. Kill a bunch of Destoyers! Kett Behemoths on every wave! Nugs running around spewing out credits! OK maybe not Nugs. Maybe Pyjaks?

As much as I retroactively hate DAIMP, their events were actually done well. (Except for the 'grind out kills with this weapon / power'. F--k those.) Killing Nugs, Druffalo, and Giants (!!!) was awesome. MEAMP could have done something with the Kett Behemoth... like collectively each console has to kill him 10,000 times or whatever numbers make sense. Similar to what DAIMP did. Early ME3MP events were similar, I know there was a "kill X number of Brutes" mission. that was the very first one.

Why are some people excited for this? It's just going to be the same as all the previous ones. Some lame "story" that no one cares about, it won't affect the actualy mission and it will play the same as a regular one. Nothing unique about it, no special rewards, nothing.
Oh, but those easter egg baskets. Good times. I'll be looking back with fond memories for years to come.

I'll still be annoyed and frustrated that the new map will probably remain locked to APEX missions for far too long, but hey, we know there's another map!

they should really allow people to change the difficulty in apex missions for multiplayer They should do a lot of things but even adding bonus exp/credits for selecting a random map/enemy is beyond their comprehension. Stupid is as stupid does.

I mean we still don't even have the other APEX map, Paradox, playable for normal missions yet and we are 4 weeks in already. I'm sorry but the Resurgence DLC (released 5 weeks after launch) for ME3 makes what Bioware has done so far for MEAMP look like a bad joke.

More bronze only content I bet, I think they are actively trying to make the gold players quit the game by continuously trolling with these bronze only maps while we are stuck on the same 5 shit maps over and over.

The DAIMP style challenges were largely inane but one good thing was that for some of the better ones, you could choose a difficulty, and higher difficulties contributed more points towards challenge completion. I don't know why they couldn't include something along those lines in MEAMP, that way scrubs like me could grind it out on bronze, and 1337 pro MLG world record holders could do it quickly on gold.
Obviously the downside was that most of the DAIMP challenges were "kill x mooks" which was easily done via a routine solo. Still, having a gold archon kill count for more than a bronze would alleviate some of this.
