The only thing that's worse is when the missile flies past them and moments later the entire team gets a message how you used a missile to kill a single... husk.

That or a husk jumps in front of the missile right as you fire it.

I always fire one off on silver when I see two banshees right next to each other. I figure why bother with the headache when you can take out two at once?

Only when I miss....at point blank.

I don't get as mad as some dude using 2 medi gels and 2 instant heal packs in the first few waves on bronze.

Misuse of Missile launchers pisses me off to no end. Especially when I'm wearing down an ATLAS or Banshee.

[BraveLToaster]

Sometimes you just feel like missileing a Swarmer.

I don't mind except on gold.

i can solo bronze without any difficulty so people wasting rockets just makes it a lot faster.
Silver i usually only need rockets for wave 10 if it's a circle hack objective or my teammates won't help with the assassination objective and i end up spend half the time limit trying to take down an atlas with a carn

People .. those missiles kill in radius around impact point. It is STUPID to shoot them at targets. Shoot them on the ground. On the walls. On the ceiling if you must. You will never miss like this, and you can get more damage. Imagine if the kill radius is 5m (it is about that), and you have two geth primes 7m from each other .. you hit the first one - the second one lives ! Aim into their average position - kaboom, kill streak.

That makes me facepalm.

I always aim it at the ground just to make sure it hits. 

[Simocrates]

I have wasted a couple missiles before, wooooooooosh straight past the prime.

It's not their missiles unless they solo. It's the the team's missiles; Inconsequential in Bronze, Annoying in silver, really weird in gold.

I like using my missiles. I use them when the Hunter swarm has got two teammates down and killing them all one by one would take too long. I use them when I see two Banshees with Marauder and Ravager support clumped up. I use them when the team reaches a hack objective and the bad guys decided to spawn on it. I use it to clear the eleventy million mooks surrounding the corpses of my three teammates when going to revive. I use it to kill mission targets. I use it so that others may learn that missiles are pixels, and limited though they may be their use should be encouraged.

In other words, I'm not half as upset by the wasteful use of missiles as I am by the (far more common) obstinate refusal to use them at all.

[ABjerre]

Couldn't care less. I have 5 to use each game, and as long as they are only using their own supplies, i really dont care. If it comes down to it, i am carrying enough missiles to lay waste to the entire galactic quadrant.

What DOES anger me though, is the "projectile weapon glitch" where the weapon spends ammo, but missfires. Using an assault rifle or pistol, **** that. But wasting a missile (of my own) to a glitch, when i could have had 4 Geth Primes and countless smaller units too really REALLY angers me.

Ditto. Too many missiles spent in the demo flying away into the sky because the damn Brute took a step sideways or the Atlas turned. Haven't lost any missiles to clipping yet, thankfully.

My philosophy is, "When in Doubt, whip it out!"

I'm sure that makes you popular with the Metro Transit authorities.

To the OP, I get a little pissed when someone uses a missile early on in gold, no because I feel like we needed it later but because it shows the player doesn't have experience/common sense.  That's a lot more dangerous to me.

You know what really gets on my nerves is going to pick somone up and they use a medigel. They should at least wait until they have 1/4th of bleedout time left.

[suprarj]

I'm just happy that people are using missiles in general. This weekend really illustrated how useful they are.

Pro Tip: when your team is in "Wipe mode" (the zerg is on, everyone is dying, chain res-ing and immediately dying), when someone dies immediately after ressing you, you must press "5" and then fire the missile at the ground in the middle of the zerg. You can ALWAYS get at least 1 off even if you're surrounded by enemies taking 123901823 damage. This is true on my AA with 0 points in fitness. Yes, lag can screw you occasionally.

Missiles have saved me in almost every near wipe situation.

yeah, I am definitely guilty of this one... I freaking ran out of medigel yesterday.  I have 200+ missiles, 200+ health/ammo packs, and 2 medigel.  Does anyone know which pack guarantees the most medis?  I have been buying premium spectres nonstop since they came out.

I actually want them to bring back the consumeable pack.

[Gabigool]

I use my Cobras when I need to. I assume my teammates will do the same. On silver most people aren't using their mic so I tend to assess the "need" based on how good I think my team is.

I play mostly HV and while I don't lone-wolf it, there will be times in matches when I will get pulled away from my team and to get back to them there might be a couple banshees and a brute in the way. If my team's good I might just call it out, if my team's not so good, yeah, I'll use a cobra. I don't care what wave it is.

I get a kick out of idiots that call me out on it. Personally I see too few cobras used on silver. By that I mean there are times when they clearly are the smart thing to do and they're just not used. I can't count how many rounds I end up having to clutch.

People make it sound like Silver is simple mode. While it should be, and usually is pretty easy, you can get into a group where it's really not. Example - non host HV, Krogan Soldier, Quarian Engineer and an afk leecher vs. Reapers. Sorry but I'm probably going to fire off a few cobras before the money round. /shrug If someone wants to call me out on that I can't really sweat it.

[AnthonyF27]

Unless I'm surrounded by a massive group of enemies, I rarely use my missiles on any level but Gold. I'll use them occasionally in Silver if it's wave 10 or something.  Although sometimes, if you see a banshee lifting up a teammate, it's worthwhile to waste the missile before your teammate is knocked out of the wave.

Smart use of Medigel
1) Go critical
2) Wait & hit space
3) If an enemy who can stomp you approaches, use medigel, else wait
4) When bar is less than 1/4, use medigel

I also, tend to not use them before wave 6 or so.  If there are three guys left and it's an early wave, I don't bother.

Just my own, but it's humor inducing rather than anger.

The amount of times I've hit a Geth trooper jumping into the path of the Hunter/Pyro horde, is just sad.

[fixit6]

I used a missle on some ravager bugs a few times, just for a laugh.

BOOM! GISSSH!

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.

[Navasha]

I don't care if they use missiles. Thats why they are there. On bronze, its mostly to net you an easy +2500 exp bonus for a killstreak. Its not like you will need the missiles to survive the match.

I have to call total bull on that. It's their equipment, they worked for it, they bought the pack. They can use it however they please.

Can it be annoying? YES

But really, we all need to understand that letting something in this vain that WE CAN'T CONTROL upset us is really dumb.
