I think there could be one solution for farming:
Introduce a Platinum difficulty, where the enemies are not so much different from current cold, maybe a little bit buffed up. But make it so, that every platinum game is unknown/unknown. And let the credits reward be higher than on gold.
This would encourage to built a squad that can hold its own against any enemy, would bring a small surprise for each game and reward players / teams that are capably to quickly adopt to a given situation.
Let the farmers go on farm gold on any map/enemy they like


^This. A slightly harder difficulty with more creds...

I dont know know if i mentioned it in this thread or another but farming reapers is also entirely possible. What are the anti farmers going to call for next every enemy having an insta kill? Lol

It's when people get into a match in Firebase White, Geth, Gold. The basic strategy is to just camp down at the bottom behind the consoles. People usually play a Salarian Engineer and like 3 Infiltrators and grab any Geth that come near you...it's the easiest way to win a Gold match and you get about 70k per match.

But you can do the same thing on every level (a nice detailed explaination for each level was given earlier)... so why is this one so bad?

Oh okay. Yeah I have been in a couple of gold matches where the people were doing that strange. A little boring after a while so I leave and do it on reactor level one of my favorites for gold.

Ok... How can you change a map because of a strategy? It ain't farming. Its stratergy. Its holding down a successful strong point. Quit your crying. Most you babies suck bad at the game.

the point I'm gathering is a massive influx of people so set in the ways of camp in one spot being spread out to others non-camp in one spot maps and thereby being a huge amount of carrying being done as opposed to playing with people with actual legit gold skill.

i.e. all the bad players on fbwgg will now be in your random random gold games bringing you down with them


meh...farm white geth gold because its efficient and less stressful, with some of my toons.  I've done Reaper and Cerb gold with my blue splosions and done decently well but I had to quit after one game of that to calm down.

I did Firebase Giant/Geth/Gold with 3 Inflitrators (2 Quarians, 1 Salarian) and a Salarian Engineer (me).

It was actually easier than a lot of FB White runs I've put up with.

Lol ya...except i believe they are going to buff the Geth in general somehow, i don't think they're gonna do something to the map itself, although they'll probably make it a bit harder to camp it there..

It is a bit strange that people are angry with something that gives them more credits and experience but I see why it kind of takes the fun of it.

yeah, its mostly cuz when u want to play a random gold game, it will put u in FBWGG like 33% of the time..but that's why you can host your own game or play with friends lol plus i guess its ok for ppl who are barely starting out with gold since the difference between silver and gold is pretty significant

Curious thing, people whining about FBWGG players. Suppose they've cried into one too many tissues over the fact that people are legitimately earning credits faster than them.

Who said they were specifically targeting FBWGG? Geth aren't exactly the most dangerous enemy. Their heavy unit is nearly a joke, their other heavy unit is just infantry, and everything else is just a trooper with a different gun and a shield.

Did it never occur to you that they would attempt to balance it to make geth gold matches actually a challenge? a buff to them is overdue, not because of farming, but because they're hilariously underpowered.


I agree the Primes are too easy... but those little geth turrets they spawn behind you will wreck your team if no one figures out that it's there fast enough.

FBWGG has it's place... and that place is for players who are new to Gold. I learned to play on Gold on FBWGG, now I can play UUG like it's nobodys business. Another thing that is nice about FBWGG is I can run a stupid class and experiment without having to deal with all the annoying Vanguards on silver. For instance: I never used the SMGs because I couldn't ever figure out a decent setup with them... after trying all of them on FBWGG I got a good idea of how to use them effectively, and now I take this knowledge with me to UUG.

Why do people care so much about other peoples business anyway? If you can't consistently find good random lobbies, do what every other good player does... GET A MIC AND MAKE SOME FRIENDS! I have about 15 really good players in my little circle of friends now so I rarely get stuck with a random idiot, nor am I forced to carry the team, nor am I forced to play my Salarian Engineer on FBWGG anymore either.

Question: What constitues farming anyway? Camping?

I have a mic, it wont work in this game :(

I'm not a hater of FBWGG player but I have to ask...

You're a FBWGG farmer aren't you?  

If so you're not doing it faster then me on gold legitimately.

I still believe I'm awesome at the game I can do both weather with people who are farming as those who are not. So I declare myself to be pretty awesome along with anyone else who feels the same haha

No, actually you easily get five or six FBWGG lobbies in a row until you find something less boring. So that makes about 70-80%. Given the chance that this other lobby is about being dissolved right as you enter, you get the picture. Not to mention that an UUG can give you FBWGG :devil:.

Translation: GTFO and do something else in this game.  Staying inside such a small box will limit your appeal to the game to the point that watching paint dry on the wall is more fun.  If you want this game to get stale for your quicker then by all means keep playing FBWGG, but if you want to experince the more "thrilling" challenge this game has to offer for god sakes play something else.

Dry your tears, son. I don't play enough to be a "farmer", but yes, I've played a couple dozen matches on FBWGG with my Geth Engineer. Spend much more time on bronze and silver with my other classes. I don't see why you've got to gloat, moan and dedicate your life to making other people play like you. They're not cheating, so leave them alone.
