[IMPORTANT] OP Vanguard: Missions timer explained + fix suggestion
Hello to all Steam users and CS:GO players!

I've decided to start this thread because I've noticed that many of you complain about the missions drop rate timer.

Also I have few logical ideas regarding the drop rate I've mentioned above. Please make sure to read the whole post before submitting your reply.

I'll do my best to cover all aspects of the new operation.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you purchase the new Operation Vanguard you get 2 campaigns: Vanguard and Weapon Specialist (WS).

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=341883531

Both campaigns have 21 missions each.

As officially stated in the Counter-Strike Blog - you will be able to get 2 missions per week! link[i.imgur.com]

If that's not enough, you can purchase another 2 campaigns called Maghreb and Eurasia. Both campaigns contain 21 missions each.

There is NO official statement of the missions drop rate in the[i.imgur.com] Counter-Strike Blog

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If we do the math and based on the Official blog statement you have roughly 3 months (Operation Vanguard was released November 12, 2014 GMT time and it will continue through February 10th 2015 [91 days total]) to complete both Vanguard and WS campaigns. That makes 13 weeks for 42 missions.

And here comes the issue:

As said above, you can do 2 missions per week. So 13 weeks by 2 missions makes 26 completed missions in total. So you won't have time to complete the rest 16 missions.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you purchased the whole campaigns pack, you get to do 84 missions in less than 3 months which by simple math is impossible even for Chuck Norris.

The unofficial storry:

If you purchased the additional campaigns - Maghreb and Eurasia, your mission drop timer is lowered to 2 missions per 4 days. That makes 1 mission per 2 day. If we divide the 3 months (91 days) you will be able to complete total of 45 missions and a half (from all 4 campaigns) until the Operation Vanguard ends.

Here is the solution for this issue:

The Default Operation Vanguard (Vanguard and WS) missions drop rate timer:

4 missions per week

If you purchased all Operation Vanguard pass (Vanguard, WS, Maghreb and Eurasia campaigns) the missions drop rate timer should be 7 missions per week.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Looking forward for your replies.

Thanks.

Valve doesn't give a ♥♥♥♥, I hate them so much now

If you purchased all Operation Vanguard pass. You'll be able to do a mission after 2 days
which means 3.5 mission per weak (7 Per 2 Weak)

Mi question is if u can stack up missions, for example u log in after 1 monyh, u will have like 15 missions to do ? If not then u will be able to make even less missions since u need to add the time u need to make the mission u receive and to reset the timer for the next mission drop....

I personaly would like to see the timer gone, cus im one of thous people who likes to complete everything if I can, so being so restricted anoyes me greatly. But I think at least 1 mission a day would be sufficiant enough for me as a minimum.
ACEHOB Nov 15, 2014 @ 5:34am 
Let's hope more people will see it, so they can understand how many missions they could do based on the missions drop timer as it is now.
ruThNex Nov 15, 2014 @ 5:39am 
Yes, REMOVE The Drop Restriction !!!

Players who want - should be able to finish the missions faster !!!

Valve may well speed up the Mission rate as the Operation is coming near its end.

Honestly, I gave this a thought, but the calculation will vary depending on the time they will (if they) pick to start the "mission boost".
