Hi there,

Yes, MEFs are back as mission rewards.

Thanks,

and? I don't understand

I hate playing base-bingo for them, and I suspect I'm not alone. MEFs are required for Grade 5 Overpowered Weapon upgrades.

Yea. While i currently have some of them and thus feel no personal need, i also remember how annoying it was to do the same kind of bases again and again, playing the lottery if i get what i need or some random junk.
.
Giving us a way to avoid at least one tier of random is a good and welcome change.

Indeed you are not alone. I like driving the SRV, but in my opinion that 'beat the timer' base scan malarkey is just the pits.

For the record (post-update), I now have missions pending completion for 6 MEFs and I haven't even left the station yet.

EDIT: Guess what folks? That bug has returned, the one where the mission rewards change as soon as you accept them.

Sighs.

Guess I'll swing by a few starports to look for them. MEF is all I'm missing to G5 roll all the MCs on my new Corvette.

EDIT: Dom has confirmed this is a bug on consoles only, so I guess everyone else on Mac/PC can go looking for MEF Mission Rewards now.

LOL!

This is only a temporary setback. The Console Alliance will rise again!

I guess you want them given to you at every mission board, these things should be RARE and envolve work to get not just given out as mission rewards.

Nice, I found about 3 missions so far with MEF's. But couldn't do them as I wasn't repped with the faction enough yet, which means they'll be gone by the time I do, lol.

FD disagrees with you, in the end its their opinion that counts. I won't be losing sleep if you think I'm not 'working' hard enough for them.
