I have spent the entire day today and all of last night attempting this quest. I will say that I would have it done three times over if not for bugs. I just spent two hoursjust finding a shield frequency code for one of the three bases close enough to the villiage to even make the quest POSSIBLE.
Then, after that. I spent two hourskilling the five defenders and taking out turrets from afar. Finally I am able to capture the commander. Next some gaping spiders just appear in and around the base, "no problem" I say to myself. I kill one, then another, then on the third the commander (still standing idly nearby) suddenly says "Oh the poison, the pain" and I get a message that he took bio toxins and killed himself. So after four hours the quest fails for no apparent reason. WHY!? JUST TELL ME WHY!
Before this mishap, I actually had friends to help me and was on another of the three possible bases close enough to the villiage to actually finish the quest. (This also took me two hours of killing sith to find the appropriate frequency code). Here we are taking out sith, and turrets, and as soon as the gate is blown the commander suddenly decides to take biotoxins and kill himself, before he was even captured, and the mission was failed.
Two weeks earlier, before the combat update. I spent more like 6 hours on one base and finally had the commander two thousand meters from the village and out of nowhere I see a system message saying I failed the mission, though the commander was following safely behind and I had not entered combat the entire trip.
I am sick to death of wasting my time doing questsbecause of a buggy and poorly programmed "game". This is enough to make me quit. I just can't stand being robbed like this anymore. There is no one to help, and no one to listen. Only my fellow friends playing this mess of a "game".

That's why i took the easy way and did Dageerin's mission, the last 2 missions were still very tough to follow...

You have 60 minutes from the time the shield comes down to get him to the village, or he kills himself. Gotta work quick, get in and get out.
Not sure if they extended the timer, but I hear its 60min.
I can't get this done for the life of me.

The base has to be 3500m 'MAXIMUM' distance. Preferred 3000m or less. Take out Turrets BEFORE taking shield down. At the first spawn, if you act quick...you can kill the gate together and get inside there without having to kill 50 guys. From the Inside, take shots at the guys waiting at the entrance until you get your 5 kills. (as long as you SHOOT them, only One will come. Not group aggro). Not that 5 were killed, the Commander will spawn. Do 'Capture' on him, and go back towards the entrance. Shoot guys one by one. Within the next 5 minutes, 1 of 2 things will happen. 1) You kill all the guys there, and can make a run for it. 2) All the guys at the entrance de-spawn, and you have about 20 seconds to get the hell out before the new spawns arrive.
After that, just pull out your CTRL + M map, and try to avoid any red dots. You WILL BE ambushed by the sith. Normally 2 at a time. And the Commander WILL try to Escape. (fortunately at the slow run speed). If he does, target him...radial menu...'follow me' and he comes again. The safest thing to do is have one of you Lead between the red aggro mobs, while another one does /follow on the commander, to make sure he doesn't slip away from you.
We finally got it after 3 attempts. Took us about 50 minutes to walk the 2900m distance. We got in and out of the base really fast because I explained it to my partner, and he listened well. 
Anyway, the mission is INSANE! Good luck.
