The Glade 4.0

Didnt' get a commendation pack AGAIN. Will be contacting customer service.

Hi all,

We granted the Victory and Commendations Packs from
Operation Raptor last night but this morning it was identified that many
people were using an exploit to get multiple packs. In order to stop
the problem we had to suspend the granting of packs immediately. We are
currently working on a fix for this issue. We will restart the granting
of packs once this issue has been fixed.

Didnt' get a commendation pack AGAIN. Will be contacting customer service.

We'll see. Sounds like they'll just provide more detail on how screwed the galaxy is now, as opposed to actually different endings.

Allied forces have matched krogan mercs and batarians with asari justicars for unconventional warfare. Their mission: to create resistance on Reaper-occupied planets to tie down local Reapers.

All N7 Forces will receive a +25% Experience Bonus for participating in Operations in any Theatre of War against any foe. Good Luck!

Operation Beachhead is here, the next N7 Multiplayer Weekend!

Last weekend the community rallied to promote a record breaking 350,000k+ operatives in the field. This weekend Operation Beachhead will run from 6PM PST Thursday April 5th, to 5AM PST Tuesday April 10th on Xbox 360, PC, and PlayStation 3.

Please remember to set “Upload Gameplay Feedback” to “on” in the online options to be able to participate in Operation Beachhead.

See you on the Battlefield!

Batarian Soldier and Sentinel, Krogan Vanguard, Geth Engineer and Infiltrator, Asari Justicar are confirmed for MP DLC.

Two maps, three guns, coming out Tuesday.

New rumor today about "The Truth" DLC coming for free in April / May:

Geth Infiltrator cloak just randomly turns on and off. That way, you're never intentionally infiltrating.

Asari Justicar Adept – By the code, you will annihilate your enemy. Use the new Biotic Sphere ability to protect your allies and unleash deadly biotic powers to rip the opposition apart.
Batarian Soldier – Get up close and personal with the Ballistic Blades and Blade Armor abilities. The Batarian Soldier is an expert at being on the front lines and pummeling the enemy into submission.
Geth Infiltrator – Ever cursed the Geth Hunter’s name? Well now you get to be one. Cloak, sneak up on enemies and scan them through walls with Hunter Mode. Or hang back and rain sniper fire from distance.
Batarian Sentinel – Trap enemies with the Submission Net then unleash on them when they are unprotected. As with other Sentinels the Batarian can use tech and biotic abilities, ensuring he is prepared for any situation
Geth Engineer – Drop a Geth Turret and keep the pressure on your foe, all the while resurging your team’s shields. The Geth Engineer is a great support and utility character, key to any squad’s success.
Krogan Battlemaster Vanguard – FOR TUCHANKA! You might find yourself yelling your best Krogan battlecry when you use the Biotic Charge ability. To help protect yourself in the heat of battle, activate the Biotic Barrier ability and become the ultimate Battlemaster.
