So quite often when I'm playing bronze or silver I'll see some idiot waste a missile launcher on the first Atlas or Geth Prime that appears in the match, and nobody is in any particular danger either. IMO it's situationally acceptable in gold to use them before wave 10, but I just rage when I see someone waste their missiles in the more casual modes like that. Does anyone just rage and ask themselves "WHY!?" when they see someone else do this?
Does the misuse of missile launchers anger you?

I've seen it used on a brute that had less than half its health. What a waste.

Hey, it's their missiles they're wasting so I don't care. And on bronze/silver, it's very rare that you find a situation where you NEED a missile anyway. I can bring 4 missiles to a mission, which is more than enough for those difficulties.

Well it doesn't anger me, but I do go "God I hope we won't need that later on" If we do need it later on it does annoy me a little bit though

Why does it matter? They use their credits to unlock their equipment, and it's not hurting anyone. If anything, it just makes the round go a little quicker. The only person suffering is the person who used it. It shouldn't anger you. It's not like they're using your missiles.

If they wanna waste em, who am I to say anything? It does worry me a bit that we'll need that missile later on though, lol.

I usually inquire if its a seemingly random missle.
Usually you should use missles on gold for target elimiations regardless of wave 3.6.10 to do it faster.
Just IMO

Doesn't affect me any. Although when I'm working on killing an heavy unit (Atlus, Brute, etc.) I get it well below half then some crazy person sees it panics and explodes it I think well that was a waste.

If it's on bronze, you don't need missiles, period. On silver, if you're a true marksman use them sparingly. If you like to spam missiles, it's your own fault.
For those that decide to nuke the first prime/equivalent, it's their own problem and they usually are the first to die.

Not at all, what angers me is those guys who don't even use one single missile (or even a single medigel) on the entire mission.

On silver there are times when it is acceptable to use rockets before wave 9 (the freaking murder wave - that one wave always seems to be worse than 10) or wave 10.
These include..
Doing the foxtrot with more than 1 Phantom
On the verge of being swamped by 2 Brutes, 2 Ravagers and a Banshee
A key personnel wave with Brutes, Atlas's or Primes as target and very little time on the clock
Also permissable during a hack/upload objective if the circle is in danger of being over-run.

Yes and no.
If on bronze and someone is just wasting there stuff, then no.
But playing on Silver and Gold and using them on something that is half dead, then yes. You never know when you will actually need to use them in an emergency situation.

even if you needed missles in silver or bronze it wouldn't matter, they aren't your missles, i don't understand the mindset of wanting to control how someone else uses their items.

There is always the possibility that they have none - I've been without any med-gel for over a week now (justnot getting any in packs)Kosmiker wrote...

It always makes me chuckle when I see someone use a missile on wave 5 for a prime on bronze.

these are mostly inexperienced players with weak kits builds and/or weak weapons. I dont blame them, though it usually does make me http://t1.gstatic.co...28QxuMbS9Cbhi9d

I facepalm when they waste it on Gold, or really early on in silver(like pre obj wave), but on bronze I don't care. They are new to the game, and need some learning time.
I don't rage at missile use. Its their missiles, not mines.

I tend to only use Missiles in ZOMGWTF! moments.
Generally reserved for Wave 10 during the uploading objective as I'm a stubborn as and refuse to budge from the circle XD.
other than that Wave 11 is a rare usage for me while trying to defend the LZ.

In bronze it doesn't matter so much, but at wave 10 of silver it can be a problem if it's the hack objective in one of the less defensible locations - if one of the other guys wastes their missiles early, then it means that the other players have to take up the slack. I'd rather have to use only one missle when it comes to that point than two because the other guy used all of his pointlessly.

I don't think people use them enough.
I can use five a match and don't think twice about doing so if needed, however it seems that recently there's some sort of missile shortage on because I rarely see anyone else using them.

Same here with the medigel. It's a shame really, since I bought nothing but Jumbo Equipment Packs the week that was available. Usually I'll let my team know if i'm going to use a Cobra... more than once I've used one exactly the same time as a teammate... tears have fallen

Of course. Maybe some HUD info about how many missiles and medigel each player has would be a nice addon.

I only tend to use the missile launcher in silver when the objective is swarmed or the target is an elite other than a brute/ravager.
Tbh on silver difficulty I don't care how people waste their missiles... I've seen them being used on swarmers far too often.
In the rare occasion that I've played gold, missiles do seem more of a commodity but it is more annoying when people don't use theirs than if they do.

If everyone saves his/her missiles until they are actually NEEDED, there is a much better chance of success.
