It annoys me for a moment when I've taken a second or two lining up my sniper shot from the other side of the map. But then I get on with the game.

No bother here, as XP is all divided at end it makes no difference other than who gets to boast that they "won" most

N7 Rank really means nothing. The best player in the world could have an N7 ranking of 20 if he wanted to, if he only played on 1 character and never promoted it.

If they fixed overkilling stealing credit I would have no problem with it. Just played a bronze with two krogan and a vanguard and aside from atlas' i rarely saw any credit for more than 50. Love getting a phantom to one bar then getting 200 out of the 1000+ credit because a krogan decided to melee it.

Overall it's not a big deal but when I'm trying to level and some vanguard joins a game steals most of the xp and dies three times a round... thanks for that... really cool.

Past a certain level i'd agree, but unless you've played each class, I would posit that you don't fully understand the balance of the game having only 1 character that is level 20.

Ontopic: I haven't cared since I found out that all exp is shared. As long as the run is successful and everyone is extracted I don't care.

I've always found it amusing finding people like I described while in competitive/PVP multiplayer games. 

A "game-shark,"  if you will :P

It doesn't bother me, either. I'm cool with it.

What does bother me is when another team member keeps yelling into their mic: "That brute is mine! That brute is mine!" (...or what ever other bigger catch happens to appear.) It's seriously annoying.

Not really, no. If anything, lately I've been holding my shots if I see someone else attacking a target so they end up getting the kill. Sometimes I stop even after I've been working on it myself, if I remember what rank and level they are anyways. Long as I get my 20 headshots I'm happy enough. Hell, I'm content with just the silver for it now.

What does annoy me is people that are over competitive and out for themselves. The players that end up ignoring the team end up hurting it instead. People consistently unaware of the locations of others, blocking each others shots to grab a kill at any cost. People that don't stick or gravitate close to another player or the group and jumping straight into a kill-zone, and then putting the group in danger when they're taken out.

I try and be aware if someones setting up biotic or tech combos, or just experimenting with a new weapon, and modify my play-style accordingly. Lately, I've done little more than just sit my Quarian ass next to another player and watch his or her six. My competitive streak ended a long time ago, and now I just want to work with the team and have a good time.

A little battlefield awareness goes a long way to making sure everyone works fluidly.

Only time it ticks me off is when I'm in the process of grabbing an enemy on the other side of cover. With as touchy as the grab icon is, it sucks lining it up only to see that someone got him before you did. Although I think most of the time people hold off when they see what you're doing.

I’m way late to the party here, so apologies for the thread resurrection and what not...

Now that's out of the way, I got accused of ‘kill stealing’ last night for the first time! After sending “good game” messages to 2 players in a lobby after a platinum game, they replied:
“yeh, thanks for stealing all my kills”
and the other one
“good nicking”

I replied to the first one saying that it was a team effort and mentioned that we all got paid at extraction the same. I just don’t understand why they were moaning.
These two guys were both snipers and I was playing the Asari Huntress Infiltrator with some heavy power boosting equipment and just an acolyte. I thought maybe they knew that a lot of powers like Dark Channel and Warp have an effect over time and biotic explosions are more powerful than most sniper shots unless you are using top equipment and a maxed out rifle.

Okay I did get over 200,000 points and that is pretty rare for me but they didn’t score too badly, over 100k I think.

I just don't get it because this is a team thing. /rant

I don't mind, but what is a bit annoying was a situation where, i was playing a game and this one guy just kept wanting to kill everything....even when there are plenty of enemies to kill this guy kept constantly jumping in front of me, causing me to drill bullets into his back.

He was a geth with a flamer going bonkers with it....so while he was trying to "burn all the things" i was using a phoenix vanguard and exploding all of his things!!...the point? just relax...there's more than enough enemies to go around without you trying to kill every single one of them...

Not really..
But I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel a bit disappointed after dropping a Banshee/Praetorian/Atlas ect down to it's last bar all on my lonesome just for someone to swan over and finish it off.
On the other hand I imagine I've done similar things to others without realising many times, so another reason why I'm not that bothered.

Also a dead Banshee/Praetorian/Atlas/Prime ect is the best kind.

Just realised the Necro...

The Necrollector strikes again!!

Why, oh why is the Necrollector reviving a thread with DNC Protoman posting in it? I thought trolls had natural regenerative abilities?

It's random for me. Someties it bothers me, sometimes it doesn't, but in general it doesn't.

I mean if I'm blasting the hell out of an atlas, practically soloing it, and got it down to the last bar, have to reload, and someone finishes it off, I'm a bit miffed.

I guess my annoyance is proportionate to the amount of effort I've put into it. I don't get bent out of shape over it though. Usually things are just going and I'm just focused on taking the wave down with everyone.

In general, I just wanna extract, and not be 4th in score, so I don't care who kills what.

I think some of the anger people have stems from the need some people have to be at the top of the board, and notions that they score less, or some things don't count if they don't make the kill, like weapon challenges. the latter's false as far as I know.

I don't really care about it. The only times I do care is when I'm two feet from them and/or meleeing something like a husk.

Not really. If a guy is across the map and working on an Atlas, I'll let them finish it off, the rest of the team might not, but its really no big deal.

Only if they are doing it intentionally, like waiting for me or the team to chop away on an elite and then taking the final shot. Even then I don't really care that much, it just means I need to do a better job finishing things off faster.
