I haven't plaid a PUG in ages. Didn't notice much difference really, finished at least the money part of all matches today.

As said before Biotic detonations. You never mentioned if they all showed up together or after you took some down, this happens during prolonged waves like hack objectives and assassination objectives, if they all show up together run around and make sure at some point they bunch up together, aim to the ground with your Kobra and all is well.

It was wave 10, as you preluded too, and im zoomed in and its a kill 4 target situation. Target box is coming around the corner and its predictably a banshee. what isnt, is 2 more banshee's almost like literally spawning ontop of the target or the target splitting into more than one. and thats not all as i take the target down with my team a guy on the mic points out brutes from the right side flanking us. im like wtf?

im a retired marine and the past day on silver is something straight outtta Iraq. People just showing up outta nowhere wanting you dead dead.

I wonder if the increased difficulty has something to do with the fact that so many people have been ragequitting/afk'ing, leaving my teams a member short and far more death prone.
I'm gonna have to figure out a way to network so I don't keep getting screwed on PUG's.

i was posting this with a non-Pug group as i was being executed by a brute that charged me, infilitrator btw, through my shields and then auto executed me. i was looking at my other 3 guys and their like ur dead? Rockets?

i was like use everything you got and they didnt stop respawning what we like to call elites

That always happens on Wave 10

I had noticed a lot more top level enemies in late wave Silver matches. Geth Primes completely ignore cloak. Haven't gotten Reapers in a while on a random match, just Geth and Cerberus. Phantoms are much, much more jumpy now.

[Grausherra]

Okay, so it's not just me that thought "why are there a million god damn phantoms" all of a sudden during silver Cerberus the past few days.

Sounds like a weak wave 10. I'd expect more brutes than 2.

how about reading the entire post instead of picking at a fragment of a sentence. the target was a banshee guarded by 2 banshees and trash but on the other spawn point instead of cannibals/marauders you had 2 brutes spawn. so at one point in the wave there were 3 banshees and 2 brutes. why did i say 4? because immediately as i headshotted and killed the banshee that was our target, another one spawned in her place and i think one of the first banshees took her spot as the target.


before the past few days you would get that many on wave 10 just not at the same freaking time usually in waves of 2, sometimes rarely 3. Wave 10 on silver now feels like wave 5-7 on gold and with an objective to complete.

[kingsims]

This is why you have 2 missiles per person per game. You have 8 missiles total in any game minimum if you have 4 people. If your team member sees two banshees then that mean you use the rockets. Don't be stingy with your rocket usage and sliver is easy wave 10. If everyone used 1 rockets on wave 10 it would be over fast and 1 rocket costs what 1k-5k.

There is no excuse for everyone not using at least one missile on wave ten by killing 2 banshees instantly.

Probably buffed it for operation: whatever this weekend

Ahh... it seems you misinterpreted my implied causality:
What I meant: increased difficulty causes more people to flake or leech for credits because they don't want to put in the effort.
What it might have sounded like: increased difficulty is merely a matter of perception as a result of aforementioned quitters/leechers.
Obviously I believe that the buffs are real.

 This will often happen on wave ten or the extraction phase. if you have missles use them. if not I suggest running the hell away till you can isolate them and take em out one by one, and for the love of god stay together for rezzes. 

I have also noticed that silver has gotten a bit harder recently, which would be fine as long as they ALSO up the credits it rewards

[Ravenmyste]

someone call for missile barrage i love the fact i have 5+ missles so that i can paint them just point it at the ground wait till their nearly on top of you and let it fly and watch the new paint job. swarmers, banshee, brutes go gown in one shot and it good for killing cannibles that think they can get thru all the the explosion. i had like 7 kill back to back waiting till theyw as all in range and just  pointed it at the ground in front of me

QFT.  What the holy hell, Cerberus?  I was playing a match earlier and we got to wave... 8, I think it was.  We were mopping up and had just killed 3 phantoms in the span of maybe 10 or 15 seconds.  Noticed another one hiding around a corner.  Guy next to me and I both opened fire on it.  He closes toward the corner with his shotgun to remove its face and another one pops out from behind and instant-kills him.  I see it starting the animation and since I was a krogan in blood rage, I charged it.  Figured even if I couldn't save him I'd still get the phantom because it's stationary during the animation.  Wrong.  I don't even know what the hell happened, all I know is I got instant-killed too.  The other two guys on the team didn't last long.  I don't remember what killed them, I was still stunned.

GDI I hate phantoms.  Who the hell was the dev that saw a space age shooter and said "this game needs ninjas!"?

[Credit2team]

as a suggestion to Bioware, I'd say instead of buffing the AI they should simply make different difficulty modes and gauge the credit payout accordingly. for example: create a bronze plus (difficulty in between bronze and silver), silver plus (difficulty between silver and gold) and gold plus (extreme difficulty mode)

What no ravagers backing them up? Pfft easy.

Thats what I noticed to.  Less ravagers means you dont get pinned and screwed.  I haven't had any problems with reapers.

Then again I find silver pretty easy, but cant be bothered to pug gold.

not like this you would normally get 2 banshee.2 brutes on wave 7 wave 8 would be 3 banshe and 3 brunts on wave 10 would be 4 banshee and 4 brutes, wave  11 was hell on silver  6 swarmers 5 banshee and 5 brutes

[SinerAthin]

I have seen more than 6 banshees in a single wave, but never more than 2 on the field at the same time in Silver.

Are you reporting 4 banshees spawning or 4 banshees actually in the field at the same time?
