Odds are if you join a Geth White match with multiple snipers you have found a farm group. Quick and easy is how its done.

You may think its cute watching all the mobs on the screen do the stankyleg every time you faceroll mouse1 but you are nothing more than a hindrance.

Save your toys for bronze matches where they belong. A decent unhindered sniper with a Valiant/BW can drop 2-3 non elites per cycle. Falcon spam != unhindered.

As much as I try to give bad spec/loadouts the benefit of the doubt and typically try to limit my kicks in the lobby I find myself becoming much more particular about who I will queue with. I find myself becoming more of an elitist after every headache of a match like this mainly because I am tired of wasting 20-30 minutes dealing with stupidity. I would expect this sort of nonsense to be limited to silver and below but sadly that is not the case.

I would love to see some sort of barrier to entry implemented for gold difficulty. Maybe a test or gearcheck or something to mitigate the level of derptitude that many of us try to escape by running golds.

I am gonna rock my Falcon whenever I see you in game, maybe combine with biotic explosion to make your screen shake even more.

Bottomline, screw your whining man

I'm sick of playing matches of stupidity with nubcakes like you as well.  Please go farm with friends in private lobbies and leave public lobbies to the professional legit players.

The Falcon is awesome, snipers are an hindrance when you can have a GPS Infiltrator and Biotic Explosions "seek and destroy" setup, which the Cryo Falcon used by a support class complements amazingly well.

Just another case of "I'm center of the world" lone wolf wannabe sniper who can't think outside the box and blame others for his inability to adapt.

Biotic / Falcon Team >>>>>>> Sniper team.

Too much whining detected.

I find that actually a falcon user with say cryo or disruptor ammo can be of use even in gold, it will help do tech bursts just camping down with the SE with decoy, and if you cant hit a staggered enemy then thats your problem.

Anyway FB white is so easy that it can be done with 2 people, with 3 is a walk in the park, with 4 the last guy can be anything he wants, as long as its not something completely wrong like a Asari Adept with shotgun and sniper.

Here's an idea. Communicate with them. If it's a pug game, you have no real right to force them to do anything, but you could easily ask them to adjust to your strategy. If you're going to take advantage of the game's AI, you don't really deserve the respect of consideration if you're going to be rude on top of it. Learn to be sociable and communicate better or earn the scorn of all those without mics.

I don't have a mic, but I'm more than happy to go with a dude's strategy if he's not being a jerk about it. I beat my first gold last night largely thanks to a fella who had a strategy for Giant, keyed us in on it, and talked us through some tricky bits (you know, like the bit where there are four phantoms on the field and the Asari doesn't have bubble stasis).

Happiness and credits for everyone, and all you have to do is not be a jerk. What a concept.

But..But.. People using weapon X prevents me to top score, it's meaaaaaan, and Salarian Infiltrator/Black Widow/Firebase White is the ONLY way to play the game, you scrub ! I shouldn't have to tell you that. /sarcasm

Amusing thread is amusing.

This. The low-risk high-reward players should be the last ones in the match dictating terms. Anybody can cloak and fire an OP weapon from a comfortable elevated distance while everybody else soaks up the bullets.

If you don't like the falcon ED and Overload must be annoying, too, I guess?

Tbh I used the Falcon X with cryo in a couple of matches yesterday. They took 20-25 minutes on gold and I found an incredibly increased survivability on the "hacking" and "disable 4 devices" waves. Though Carnifex is more fun, which is why I switched back. Funny how some snipers think they are somewhat essential to farming matches...

[Autochthon]

Enemies die in a single body shot with a valiant anyway. Stop trying to **** up headshots and you'll be fine.

Exactly, the only reason i use infiltrator in farming matches is for the 4 indoctrination missions.
Anyway OP is wrong, as i said a falcon x with ammo cryo or disruptor will rain havok since all your doing is camping in the bottom of FB White.

If a sniper cant hit staggered mobs then i say only this: You are doing it wrong.

Turian Sentinel with Disrupter Falcon > Your sniper

The amount of Geth you can lock down with this set up is insane. You will also be doing enough damage to score in the 120k range.

You should kick all biotic users too, since explosions shake the screen. Just run infil x3 and salarian engy on firebase white until you have all the imaginary lootz.

No doubt it's a good and fun build, but you're fooling yourself if you think you can out DPS an SI with a top-tier sniper rifle reload cancelling, using powers well, and hitting heads with every shot.

[Barlow]

I must add - in my opinion a farming match is not necessarily "better" or more successful if it's slightly faster. I'd prefer a 25 Minute match where I don't have to use a lot of consumables over a "5 launcher/5 osp/5 medi-gels"-match anyday, especially since the premium spectre pack had me running "low-ish" on those.

I don't even want to imagine starting a game without 5/5/5/5 and then failing on wave 10 because I have no medi-gel/osp. And the few "mission failed"-screens I saw during the last couple of days always occured after multiple people bled out despite not yet having used any medi-gels...

And btt: The falcon helps a lot in that area since it might be the best "defensive" weapon in the game. Especially in farming matches with hordes of clustered enemies.

[PaperAlien]

Haha OP you're funny!

By farm group you obviously mean one of those horribly slow groups that like to hide at the extreme edge of the map and sit around waiting.

[Silveralen]

Acting like Gold/white is actually something that deserves an entry exam, kinda funny. I've seen it won with a 3 person team, 1 of which was a melee krogan sentinel. Hilarious, and they pulled it off somehow.

Seriously OP, this is laughable.

Geth Farmers are the scum of this community.
Set your games to private so I don't have to join that garbage.
I get so tired of Geth. Especially since its ALL I EVER GET TO PLAY ON GOLD!

[Balrogen4]

People bashing OP are idiots, he's just pointing out that if you find a Geth Firebase White Match it's probably intended to go as fast and smooth as possible, keep your **** builds out of them.

Edit: Fast and smooth = 16-19 minutes (Which includes extraction), not a single consumable used.

Guess I am scum then...except I do it with friends.  usually takes 30-35 minutes.

We throw down a decoy, sit back in the corner of Giant and let them come to us.

[SwiftRevenant]

Are you serious? Falcon is awesome in gold matches. Whenever I have played with one he usually stays outside and focuses on the enemies coming down the staircase, while the rest of us (adepts/infiltrators/etc.) stay inside. Works wonders runs finish between 17-19 min depending on the rest of the group.
