so much e-peen here...
For you guys who think this is too easy, consider helping and mentoring some of the newer players rather than kicking them right off or blaming them when the team loses. It will be more challenging for you this way. Constructive feedback like, "Hey I know you love that giant shotgun, but you could try out using a lighter gun for your adept." or "Hey everyone, lets not run to the extraction point right away because we might get swarmed." tends to be better than "UR BUILD SUX NEWB DUMBY."
Dear players eager to try out gold: Please try to listen to the more experienced players and try to stay with the group. They would appreciate it muchly if you didn't die way on the other side of the map. If you haven't done gold before, then consider tipping the scales in your favor as much as possible.. bring a level 20 character, consider using some ammo, weapon, or shield mods for a little extra help. Donate some cobra missiles to the cause.
