The Stephen Hawking

After a few rounds of reviving this guy in the most unlikely of places on the map, you start noticing that he mostly shoots at walls and runs in circles. The team usually leaves him alone to die since he prefers playing at silver/gold difficulty and your time is better spent trying to survive. After returning to the lobby, you connect your headset, say a few choice words and quit. Only after a few minutes you start wondering: Was this perhaps Stephen Hawking, playing on a crazy, not yet perfected prototype rig controlled by mind waves?


The Girlfriend

Behaviour is much like The Stephen Hawking, but thankfully only seen on bronze. You know it's The Girlfriend when - after eight totally sucky rounds - play picks up after The Boyfriend feels too ashamed to let her continue running around in circles and shooting at walls (and fears that the team might lose because other girlfriends - through a freak coincidence - are all in the same game).


The Boyfriend

This is the guy who until now played sensibly according to class. Suddenly he is Rambo, takes too many chances and dies unsurprisingly in the face of two surprise Geth Primes he never the less feels compelled to rush. You can almost hear The Girlfriend enter the living room saying "why aren't you on top of the score list" before all this happens.

Edit: Added The Boyfriend. And yes, that was me.

The Nerf Herder

Up until recently this player couldn't care less about which weapons are OP and never even bothered to wonder if a co-op game is balanced or not.That is until the krysae entered the scene. Bit by bit the Nerf Herder's scores are lowering and those on the accursed krysae are kicking ass and taking names. It is not until after spending countless hours grinding FBWGG and not getting the so called gun of ultimate doom that they loose it. Any weapon that wasn't apart of your original loadouts is OP and could very well lead to the unraveling of space/time itself. The same goes for equipment bonuses and the like. We should be supportive and not judge them for using a level 1 smg even though they have a N7 rating in the thousands. If killed early in round, the NH can be heard faintly mumbling "nerf all things, nerf all things" repeatedly over his low leveled mic.

Edit: forgot to mention that the NF has been spent waaaay to much time on the forums reading all 'nerf' topics only adding fuel to the fire.

Awesome. I think I'm somewhere between "The Man" and "The Frustrator" but that might just be my ego talking.

[Spinotech]

 I would say I am a combination of the commando, trooper, healer, guardian, good samaritan, and silencer.

[DYarritu]

Fun read!

[ABjerre]

Holy crap, it lives! I was quite supprised to check back after a month to find this in page 2 on the boards.

Again, many many thanks to the guys that contruibuted to this thread and make it such a fun read. I'll have to admit that i've given up on adding suggestions to the first post, as it would make it way too long for anyone to ever reach the comments, and that wouldn't be fair to those guys either.

The Pizza Troll

When they aren't out trolling FBWGG matches (usually by posting the decoy behind the desk cover) or
spam-shockwaving snipers, the Pizza Troll will make a b-line to grab the item destined for the evac pad and will go along with the rest of the crew for a few seconds until they decide to head off in the opposite direction.  Helplesss, the rest of the crew is powerless to stop this. Their only hope is for the renegade pizza snatcher to fall from enemy fire. The true Pizza Troll knows this and is best served as a tanked up Krogan with five rockets who won't go down with out a fight. Immediatly following any match with said Pizza Troll, the other team mates will post here with a petition to set up an in game kick system.

An absolute joy to read it.

The AMMO-be right back

Has equipped, a high output gun that requires ammo every single time. Also spams grenades whenever he/she feels like it. When things get extremely tough, AMMO-be right back is there with his/her brand new spanking harrier, shoving lead down the big boss' throat. But as the health bar rapidly decreases, the ABRB could be found running back to an ammo crate. Yeah, you guessed it, the harrier or weapon of choice has run out of juice. No worries then, you can practically kill the boss with your trusty sidearm or even light melee it because ABRB has managed to reduce health from 100% to 1%. You can, however, choose to wait for ABRB and let him/her finish the kill lest you be called a kill-stealer.

This can also apply to grenadiers frequently spamming the battlefield. When things get quiet, yeah, you guessed it. ABRB is running back to an ammo crate, practically giving the infiltrator some quiet time to focus on lining up the shot or giving the biotics a reason to grin because they don't need ammo, ever.

But they can be counted on for sure, just inconsistently. Although, you can always ask them where the nearest ammo crate is for sure.

- I am exactly this when I use the harrier or when I use a grenadier

My go-to class lately has been a Harrier-wielding MQI. I most definitely am this player.

[A Sinister Lamb]

I enjoyed this. Quite a bit of it is true as well.

[Cosmochyck]

This thread just made my whole day!
Love it!

[tMc Tallgeese]

Just wish my thread still drew a crowd as well, so much negativity on this forum. Satire is a little hard to swallow I guess.

The Lagger:

He stands up from cover to take all three shots from a Prime.  He runs at Banshees then waits for them to pick him up.  Grenade are his lunch, turrets are is pillow, and all the time he's yelling things into the mic like: "WTF, where'd that marauder come from?!"  "She grabbed me from SOOO far way!"  "I just died from full health!"  "I'm trying to rez you but now your dead!"  and of course the central refrain: " %&* Lag!"   His squad is annoyed but sympathetic because they've all been there.  Enjoy your Revive medals if he's on your team.

Who is he?  The Lagger.  Where is he?  Far far away.

(More annoying cousin:  The Lag-guard.)

Fun thread. I don't have the AjA unlocked, but it seemed I filled the role of "mother" yesterday with my AA. I had 10 revives in one match and was just making sure the pizza deliveries got made and no rocket trooper is going to take out the pizza dude. So I get taken out by a stinking hunter and get a team revive.

Next match reapers, I'm biotic blasting ravagers on wave 9 before they get a line on the squad, then get cornered by the banshee. Solution? Melee the banshee continually. I mean WTF? I'm dead, right? No. Big explosion. Dead Banshee. Cobra. Oh, it might have been the 5 revives I had done on waves 7 & 8.

Usually I'm just the trooper.

The Drunk: This guy starts out making sure everyone has a mic on. He's hosting. He's had a pint of tequila and is starting on beer. He's playing a Kroguard. You start noticing he can't seem to hit the broadside of a barn and keeps running into walls and keeps running. Then he goes down. Then his buddy revives him. He's getting his ass handed to him by husks. About wave 5 he says he's not feeling so good and "Sorry guys." And we get the message "Wave restarted because host left."

The Stoner: This guy has his Kinect mic on and goes through the entire match coughing and smoking. He's not doing great. Funny part is that his play doesn't progressively get worse either. He runs a bit and takes a couple of shots, then goes into cover and lights up. Then coughs. Then runs and shoots and then gets into cover and lights up again. It's pretty obvious he doesn't have the medical grade stuff because he is smoking continuously for 20 minutes. I don't know anyone who can do that with medical grade ****. He'll finish in one of the bottom two spots, but he'll be hosting. You'll stay thinking maybe he's done, but next match he's going again. Most frequently encountered in Bronze rooms. How to counter: wait until he's inhaled and say "dude, what the **** are you smoking? oregano?"
