I am an unsung hero. You go down in the middle of pyros, no matter wther I am my Batarian soldier, an infiltrator or engineer or something else I will do ALL I can to get there. That brute and banshee team won't let you near the device? Ok here I come with cover fire ro if needed the well placed missile. But is my help acknowledged? Nope. Instead once the match is over I get booted for making sure everyone else stayed alive as much as possible just so the lone wolf can have his high score, the Krogan his rage fast and the drell can do yet another peroet before getting grabbed by the banshee they didn't see but fortunately explodes and drops them either from an explosive spike, a missile, a tech burst or biotic charge or somebody else's well placed head shot.

my play style doesn't appear to be on that list.
I am the soldier, i kill the enemy, assist the team and help with the objectives, either doing them myself or protecting others while they do it. I save my rockets for when they're really needed.


I am the same way most of the time and when not the soldier, I am still the unsung hero........who gets left for dead when I go down because those others DON'T need the low man in the score borad. Yet after you've bled out and they no longer have some kind of support who gets yelled at? Not the other lone wolves that's for sure.

The Enigma

That one guy that joins a lobby full of three real life friends. Nobody knows him, but he carries the team. He revives when he can, gives good cover, sticks with the team, does the objectives, and doesn't die often. You're all envious of his skill, but before you can close the post-game stats to message him or friend him he's already gone, to repeat the cycle in another lobby.


 Ok that was me a couple days ago. I popped into their gam. They saw my bs and actually said oh a Batarian guess we know who the reapers will kill first. Then after several waves when I went down, They said "we better pick him up from under the brute that's on him because if they didn't kill each other it would have got all 3 of us". It was fun they actually seemed to aprecciate a helpful random and more importantly a helpful powerhouse.  But right after the match I had an emergency and had to drop from the lobby withou saying anything.

Great read.

You're definitely missing the Krogan Charger : He will charge at enemies from a long distance and kill them. The map will be cleared in a seconds without you even realizing it. After every wave he will charge at you to show you that he is the king and you must respect him. if you kill the Banshee he will scream at you. And every once in a while you will hear the words, FOR TUCHANKA!!!!!

Don't forget about Mr/Ms boom. They are the person using the explosive ordinance then standing back for a second to watch the blood and gore fly.

I often sacrifice myself to revive a team-mate. Even if they hate me. Im also the objective guy and

The meat shield: A player who steps in the path of bullets while you disable the indoctrination boosters. If he could, he would also lay on grenades. He gets downed alot, and if you dont revive him, he still dies for you.

"The Theme Follower"
Every mission this person will follow a set theme for their class, weapons, armor, etc EVEN if it puts them at a disadvantage. They will use the weapon that fits the race, the playstyle that fits the race, and yes even the attitude that fits the race. Krogans are pure-melee, Turians are defensive Snipers, and Asari dont know how to use guns because that is how it would be if ME was real!

This is a very funny thread. I can safely say ive met most of those. I think you forgot the nerfer: this guy will yell at you and call you a loser f*inh noob and many other names for using any gun he considers op. if you then switch to your other gun and outscore him anyway he will start to heavy melee you between waves. This happened to me once when i was using my krysae quarian female infiltrator. I then switched to my gps and outscored that loser anyway :P.

I have to say I really enjoy the multiplayer in ME3, not just from a gameplay aspect but also from the different types of individuals you will come across. I've seen so many different types of playstyles in a game where you only play with three other people at a time. Heres a list of all the types I've come across. Feel free to add your own.

Fisticuffs guy: No matter what the enemy, they must perish from a heavy melee attack. This guy shows no fear in the heat of battle, but welcomes the advancing oppponents, challenging them to a brawl. Guardians cringe in fear at the thought of a fist going through their mail slot. When all enemies are defeated, he will resort to meleeing his teammates to keep his fists from becoming rusty.

The master strategist
: Every single wave you must adhere to the commands of this great tactitian, giving out orders for you to follow, almost like you are a member of his squad in single player. Make sure to save your abilities for when he tells you to use them, otherwise you must face his wrath.

The full extraction is the most important thing in the universe guy: This guy will not only yell at you if you do not get into the circle IMMEDIATELY, but he will use an unquantifiable amount of rocket launchers during this wave to ensure that full extraction is complete, even if you are all level 20. You wonder why he didn't use those rocket launchers while you were hacking an objective against reapers on gold.

The Olympian: This guy wants to get as many gold medals and awards as possible. This is why he wields a sniper rifle and shotgun as a sentinel, specced into melee combat. He will melee, revive, grab, use biotics and tech, charge into combat with a shotgun, and snipe. All for the sake of getting those rewards at the end of a game.

The Vanguard with imputiny: No need for an introduction,this guy is infamous.

The roll guy:
Walking and running are overrated, this guy will roll to all his destinations. He will bait rocket troopers to shoot at him, banshees to grab him, phantoms to pierce him, all for the sake for his extravagant display of rolling. He is very fond of the drell rolls.

The grab guy:
He will sit in cover for the entire game, waiting for that decisive moment to grab an enemy and pierce him with his omniblade in epic fashion. Unfortunately he will be clumsy with the timing and will eventually pop out of cover to melee the pyro burning him, and die. Fortunately he has an inexplicable amount of medi gels and will find a new base of operations to perform his signature move.

The Altruistic guy: No matter where you are or how many enemies are surrounding you, this guy will do whatever it takes to revive you. Even if he is in the middle of capturing an objective, he will cancel it in order to save his comrades. Favorite of the Vanguard with imputiny.

The Lone Wolf:
Runs off to do his own bidding as fighting with a team is cowardly. While you are busy hacking an objective, surrounded by banshees and brutes, this guy will make sure that those pesky husks never reach you. If he is dying, you are obligated to revive him or he will quit the mission.

The "ok i'll give him a chance" guy: Most of us have come across this guy, particularly in silver and gold. His n7 rating is kind of low for what you think it should be at for the difficulty level, or his gear setup is wierd, but you figure the rest of your team is good enough to carry the bulk of the load. Unfortunately this guy will get mugged by husks, grabbed by banshees, slapped by brutes and will constantly need to be revived. You blow every missle launcher you have on wave 3, and by wave 4 you are out of survival packs and medigels. Very rarely do you come across an individual who fits into this category, that actually exceeds expectations.

The Elitist: As soon as you join a lobby, you already see an [X] marked on your name. If you are not an asari adept or salarian infiltrator you do not have the privilege of playing with this person, who is usually a low-level sentinel. Because his N7 rating is high enough, he can do whatever he wants. Everyone below him in N7 is deemed to be a noob, anyone above him challenges his existence, and he calls them a no life loser.

The Scoreboard Guy
: After every single kill or assist, this guy furiously mashes his escape key in order to see who has the highest score. If he is behind, he will pull out his missile launcher for the atlas on wave 4, or the group of geth pyros on wave 5. At the end of the game he will belittle anyone who is below him, and proclaim to those who are above that they stole all his kills, or that he was lagging.

The Unsung Hero: 
This guy's contributions are often overlooked. He uses stasis on phantoms, decoys in well placed areas, hacks turrets, and does what he can for the teams well being. It may not show on the scoreboard, but his contributions are significant, even though no one notices them.

The WTF that works guy: This guy will come into a game as an SMG wielding infiltrator, but somehow it works. You usually wonder why you didn't kick him or leave, but it all works out in the end. You try to duplicate his strategy, but get kicked out of every lobby or fail miserably.

The Noob: He will heavy melee guardians, run around with a rocket launcher not knowing how to use it, arm himself with the worst guns possible, and neglect to level up his powers. You would think by N7 120 he would learn by now.

The Rival: No doubt you will come across a game where you and someone else are the same classrace. Your competitive nature comes in, and you actually use ammo powers and other equipment bonuses. You are constantly checking the scoreboard and trying your hardest. You succesfully complete the mission because you both make each other better, but you loathe their existence even when you aren't directly competing with them.

The Rager: Before the mission even starts this guy is going insane, yelling at you for no reason. If you get a kill, he will accuse you of stealing it. If you complete an objective, he will yell at you for not doing it faster. If you are playing a low level character, he will yell at you. If you use a rocket launcher without his permission, he will yell at you. If you do not get into the hacking bubble immediately, he will yell at you. If you take his thermal clips from an ammunition crate (even though they respawn), then god help you.




You missed the boring guy - one who makes threads like these

Mostly roll-guy with unsung. I love the support classes that are light and mobile... can't play tanky damagers :x

EDIT: No seriously, rolls man. ROLLLLS. I'm not saying I dunt kno how i am use sprint, I just love it not only to help avoid enemy fire, but to 'fix' trajectory and enable me to over ground in tight maps faster. It's also a panic button for classes without charge or shield drain (like healer GE).

Variants of the Last Man Hiding:

The Sir Robin:
He brought a Locust along (with ULM) or some such rubbish and spends the whole game firing, doing no damage, and then bravely running away.

The Higgs-Boson:
This chap runs off early game and is not seen again for at least the next 3 rounds. No kills, no saves. You know he's there somewhere because he was there at the beginning, but there seems to be no evidence of him now. When the going gets tough in later rounds however, he's suddenly discovered and changes the game with his amazing skills. This may be a Silver thing, perhaps lower levels on Gold would not be so beneath him?

Sometimes related to...

The Doctor:
Plat/Gold player that likes to travel back in time to re-live his glory days on Bronze or Silver and makes all team mates nothing but comic relief, but saves the day for the poor mortals. Thanks mate. Can we have a go now?

I tend to be the Unsung Hero a lot, but can also be...

...The Henry! Tends to miss head shots and gets lost a bit, but is always expecting the Nemesis coming up behind and never gets aggro at team mates. Usually better early in the evening, needs a few mins in between matches to prep with a quick roll up. Image IPB

I just thought of another two types I've seen:

The Football Hero:
Can't start a game without kicking the lowest N7 out first.

The Goal-Keeper:
Always saves the kick-ee by refusing to kick even after 10mins of fannying around allowance for the non-mic using AFK.

I'd like to make a list of my own.

- The OMG guy: this guy will relentlessly make use of the voice chat Microsoft provided him to convey vital information such as "omg i died again", "omg i hate these banshees", and perhaps his
favorite "omg that was my kill!"

- The Noisy: no matter if you have nothing to say for the entire game: just ensure your mic stays on so your teammates can be amazed by the sound of your dog barking, your phone ringing, people blathering in the background, and best of all, your assorted bodily functions such as coughing, heavy breathing and of course belching.
On top of that, you clearly play on a high television volume so every yell and gunshot of the game is recast, sounding in an eerie fashion like it's happening inside a tin can.

- The Salarian Infiltrator with Harrier: this guy's goal is to make you feel little, helpless and frail, pounding your self esteem into dust as he revives you over and over during Gold matches against Reapers XD

- The Asari Adept with Revenant and Claymore: she totally escapes me.

- The guy who should DIE: not enough that your N7 rating is like 14, why not create a new character while everyone else in the lobby is Ready and waiting for you? I consider myself a patient person and yet wish i could hate you to death.

- The Krogan with a Sniper Rifle (usually Sentinel): rare exemplar of a melee-loving race who makes use of a long-range playstyle and is also pretty damn good at it.

- Owen Wilson in Behind Enemy Lines: comes running and shooting but misses the extraction.

- The guy who uses Rockets just to save you from Banshee-grabs: thank you :.)


What i myself am depends on what i'm playing, really.
