I love their priorities.

People have an easy way to earn credits instead of giving Bioware more money: "FIX IT NOW!!!"
The Vanguard class becomes unplayable halfway through every match: "Meh... We'll get to it someday..."


Did you expect anything else from EA? :)

MUST GUARD THE HALLOWED EAWARE POINTS!!!!!

Can you please fix the class/race bugs for playable characters,I mean how long is non working rage gonna be up for krogan vanguard and shockwave bug,among others.....

I wonder how long it will take them to get around to fixing the classes and thier power problems...

BioWare has their priorities backwards. Fix the game so its playable then f*** it up with balancing issues. Of course if they had their heads out of their rears, this multiplayer game wouldn’t be a beta game full of bugs in the first place it would have been a finished game.

Create a Geth Juggernaut with a Grenade Launcher. Two birds, one stone, I suppose. I mean the lack of a grenade-like projectile is what causes Geth to be so farm-able.


That'd actually be pretty awesome. :)

Here's an option for the "FARMING MUZT BE NURFED EAWARE!" brigade :

How about they create a Gold Alternate difficulty, where you make 1000 fewer credits per match, and everything is the same? Farmers wouldn't play it, since it's all about the credits earned per hour for them. Then all the people who claim they can never, ever, EVER get into a normal match on Gold (and can't host either, for whatever bullbleep reason) can shift to Gold Alternate and play there. Both sides are segregated and each have their own place to play.

Fixes the whole issue, neh?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Now, where are all the infiltrator nerfs.


This isn't a competitive FPS, or even a PvP game.  It's co-op.

A slight delay before Kishpoon can no longer headshot banshees.

mmm
of course everyone is entitled to have their opinion... but i dont know man, seems to me that this is not just because they want to avoid people earning easy credits and somewhat "force" people to buy bioware points...

You dont seem to have any issue with the way geth are beign farmed on gold level... as a player i do have an issue with this.
Its freaking boring... its like using any kind of unortodox trick to defeat hard foes on any game...
The thing is.. its supposed to be the hardest level of dificulty and it shouldnt be so easy to beat. people just sit back and unless somethiing really weird happens theres no way they are going to lose that match. I've started to host my own gold matches since im tired of beign unable to find people looking to actually have a good team match, most of them prefer to just gather credits as fast as posible using FBG/G/G.


I'll admit it can be annoying, but I really don't care how other people want to earn their credits. If I search an A/A/G and I end up in a FBW/G, I simply change my search to A/C/G and that fixes that 9/10 times (I hate Reaper Gold with randoms, always fail lol).

One is a bug.

The other is simple statistics.

If
you think it takes the same level of skill to fix a bug as it does to
change a line of text that says "Geth Shields - Number here", you're
sorely mistaken. Hell, they probably don't even have the same people
working on them, because they're completely different things.


Yes the Vanguard problem is a bug, as you put it; but it's been a bug before the game even released. We were told that was fixed on the retail disc, 2 months later and I still have never been able to extract with a Vanguard because I never make it past wave 9 without hitting the bug. You don't know how pissed I was when I finally unlocked the Kroguard and found out that they STILL haven't fixed it. The Vanguard class is 1/5 of multiplayer. If 20% of multiplayer is rendered unplayable, you have a big problem.

The other isn't simple statistics. You're sorely mistaken if increasing "Geth Shields" will stop farmers. The only way to possibly deter farmers (you're complaining about) without hurting the average player is changing the AI patterns for FBW (which most likely will never happen). Another possibility is for them to change the spawning system, which would still negatively affect normal players. Either way is not simple statistics, it would require a lot of work and testing to make sure it doesn't break the game.

Let's also remember that it's possible to farm on almost any map. The amount of hate towards FBW is ridiculous. IF Bioware somehow manages to kill farming on FBW, I'll die laughing at the rage towards farming on Glacier, Giant, etc. I honestly rather they do nothing to FBW. Right now FBW is the designated farm. When I end up at FBW, I know immediately that they're farming. Kill FBW, and I won't know I'm stuck with a group of farmers until I've already wasted 10 mins.

TLDR: Adding shields will change nothing and is ultimately just a waste of time. More time should be spent fixing Day 1 problems, than policing players.

If they're changing the spawns of the Geth, that will require a client-side patch, so probably that.

Buff Javelin. Seriously, it takes so much time to reload and to fire up.

I think they updated so you won't get consumables you have 255 of in packs anymore. I just bought a few Jumbos and only got rockets plus random equipment and then I bought some Recruits and only got rockets

I finished a match about an hour ago where in wave 11 we never had to extract . Instead we had to collect 4 Prothean Artifacts and deliver them to certain areas , this was a silver match in reactor versus Geth , is this a new mode ? does anyone know ?

Also looks like they changed the amount of experience you get from character training cards. Rares give 250000 and uncommons give 62500.

Before Jumbo (says 194 rockets)

Jumbo

http://img848.images...27/1002163f.jpg

Uncommon giving 62500 exp (also got 6 rockets in pack)

http://img832.images...53/1002164s.jpg

Will post rare character card when I get money to buy PSP.

They don't really need to buff Geth, they just need to change the AI on their hunters to stay away from the pack and favor alternate routes, and rocket troopers to maintain as much distance as possible.

The changes I'd most like to see for Geth though.... the leaping units, and an armature boss. Mmmmm armature boss.

lol even 10% would not redeem it :D

phalanx X would still be more reliable at taking things down, even if eagle was at X :P
