I was searching for a gold game as my Salarian Infiltrator and got put in a FBWGG looby, which i wouldnt normally play but i just wanted a quick game.
I noticed that the team was made up of another Salarian Infiltrator, a Salarian Engineer and a Geth Engineer, so i decided to change to my Krogan Vanguard instead, as all the other bases were covered so i thought i would go for a power class.
The game went perfectly. All the other guys were good players, nobody went down, objectives were easily done, we got full extraction and i came second on the score board.
The only weird thing was that inbetween every round 2 of the other guys kept coming over and meleeing me, but i didnt think anything of it.
When we were back in the lobby i instantly had two kicks, so i turned on my mic (nobody was talking though the game) and said to them "i dont mind leaving and finding a new game, but do you just want to tell me why you want to kick me?", and they said "We thought you were a Salarian. Krogans dont belong in gold, especially Krogan Vanguards. If you want to play a noob class, go back to bronze". Then i got kicked.
I didnt do anything wrong, i was level 18, my N7 is over 300, i stayed with the group, didnt use biotic charge, I had GPS X, had equipment on, and came second on the score board.
So they must just be racist against Krogans.
Im gonna organise a million Krogan march....................whos with me??!!
Have any of you come across any racism in your games?
you outscored two of them, nothing else needs to be said.
That's not true

Most of the time when I decide to farm using FBWGG and I play my salarian infiltrator I end up having the score of my team combined, and I also noticed that I often outscore most people even when I play the salarian engineer even though by little.
At first I thought I was just landing up to play with not so good players in the lobby.
However some time later I tryed to see what it is when I am not the host...
Well results were a lot more terrible. I often ended up shooting at an already dead target due to lag, and thus barely make it to keep up with the rest of the team in terms of score.
So, if the 2 players were lagging and the one that was outscoring all was the host, it is very probable that the others just didn't have the chance to shoot at anything and could get more to cleanups and taking fire. So this makes it somewhat easy for the krogan to outscore them if he had a better connection to the host.
So no! Score doesn't mean that much!
As a hosting salarian infiltrator I could pretty much own the geth with 2 lvl 1 salarian engineers to spam decoys slowing opponents down and stripping/reducing their shields while I snipe the **** out of them.
And at this point a krogan vanguard doesn't do well with a tech team to supplement it and any tech class would be of much more help to the team and ease their gameplay.
One of my favourite games was when a geth infiltrator with revenant easily outscored me when I was host, with a proxy mine build... I was really impressed to say the least. I even felt guilty that everyone in the team had proxy mines, (2 geths infiltrators and turian sentinel, and me salarian infiltrator) and I was the only one without any level on proxy mines
So, @OP it's nothing wrong to play your vanguard however, it would be good to play it when you have actually a team that you can support with it, for example if there is atleast 1 biotic in the team with who you can combo or do something interesting. If you are goint to just your shotgun, better use a soldier class or a tech class to supplement your team.
