APEX missions are indicated by an APEX icon in the center of a mission icon - Bronze , Silver , or Gold . (Platinum missions do not appear on the strike team console; they are only available through the Custom Match screen in Multiplayer.) When an APEX mission is highlighted, there is an option at the bottom to view details pertaining to the multiplayer form of the match. That screen will give the map in use, the difficulty, the enemy type, and the modifiers associated with the mission.

The central image sums up the mission: team dispatched, difficulty, enemy, and status. In the event that there are no missions available, the missions screen will be empty.

Because certain strike team missions can be played in both singleplayer and in multiplayer at the same time, there is the possibility to start a mission using the Strike Team Console in singleplayer gameplay but complete the mission in multiplayer before the singleplayer timer is up. In overlapping instances such as this, the loot boxes and mission fund rewards will be given immediately during multiplayer. Accessing the strike team console in singleplayer after the timer expires and collecting the reward will only reward XP for the strike team.

Notes[edit | edit source]

It is important to understand that strike teams belong to an overall account, not a specific Ryder.

• Any Ryder linked to the overall account can command the teams or redeem the rewards, as long as they have been authorized via the mission First Strike.
• The overall account is limited to six strike teams and two hundred loot boxes.
• While the teams and loot boxes are limited because they are all tied together, this also means one Ryder can send out the teams and a different Ryder can claim the rewards. This is an excellent strategy to transfer a large amount of rewards from a veteran Ryder to a brand new Ryder. This gives the new Ryder an edge at the beginning of the game when levels are low and credits, resources, research data, and items not normally available can be acquired from loot boxes.
