Silver match difficulty in general has been ramped up. The number of Brutes and Banshees on a Silver match last night on Firebase Glacier was close to ridiculous. I couldn't imagine what it would have been like if we had to fight Geth

They were always hardest. Geth units are just more strong overall, thats why they have only five types.

Some people tought they weren't because of farming. Yeah, farming... Try playing Glacier with you stunlocked butt and prime chain guns that goes around corners....

stupid question why do they call it farming?

[Typhoniel]

I don't get all the hate against Geth or Silver. I didn't feel any buff beside the geth headshot-thingy. Silver is the difficulty to jump around and do stuff you won't do on gold like testing new skill/weapon combinations and funny team compositions.

Not a stupid question at all.  It roots back to old multiplayer RPGs where people would find the optimal spot to gain gear or money and just sit in that one spot continually doing the same thing over and over.  Like a farmer growing crops.  And then killing the crops with hellfire.

Blame the FBWGG farmers... or blame Bioware for not tweaking the map and removing that counter.

Or blame the Whiners who whined incessantly about FBWG farmers. How many topics posted by whiners had to point that out before Bioware decided to uberize the Geth. We can't blame Bioware.. its the moronic whiners that are to blame. Search those Topic starters and be sure to thank them

Instead of beefing up the AI stats and weapons, perhaps they should just go for more numbers. I want the game to be a challenge, but silver should not be: God we jsut barely survived that.

Silver should be the medium range, a test ground for veteran players who can eat Bronze for breakfast, but don't want to get dedicated into Gold. Personally I find gold too insane to even bother.

I feel the game balancing is steadily shifting and you need the newer characters either in your party or your 'closet' to properly fight the newer waves. So the Vorcha right now are finding things easy, but other races are lacking. Ever seen a party of three Vorcha and one Quarian? I can tell you right now my female Engineer barely scored in that whole game. Still got the credits though

Agree Geth has become 'cheap'. Just played a game of Gold Geth on FBW a few hours ago. And I was literally stunlocked by 2 Geth Hunters while getting fried by a Geth Pyro that close in while I was stunned.

I revived myself and a split second later I was stunlocked and burned to death again. I couldn't dodge nor run or do anything. I just stood in one spot as the Geth Hunters took alternate shots at me.

Geths are not buffed up. They became cheap (aka cheats).

No, we better blame the real culprit of the situation, ergo, some lazy players exploiting the design mistakes of this map and BioWare because they are taking the wrong re-balance measures. These annoying measures only affect the players in the other maps, FBWGG is just a little bit harder but still the same childs playground. This is like DRM, only screws with legitime owners.
 
"Whiners" are right, FBWGG farming is pathetic.

If they had just given Geth grenades they'd have pretty much instantly solved the whole farming 'problem' without adding all the damn stunlocks.

[GiroX-]

Just did the same match in Gold with my Manguard.

150k and extraction later. Geth still get handled.

[Tangster]

Still get stomped, although they are more fustrating.

*checks Ops manifest*

lookin a lil light there bud. its okay... soon enough
geth wont be a problem for u... just keep grinding.

[WizeMan305]

Geth are not my favorite, they can be tougher than reapers granted you could get sniped from across the map by a prime or rocket trooper, both of which have the ability to knock you down incredibly fast. Not to mention their CQC units are fearsome. Although they lack grenades and instant kills, they more than make up for it. Stun locking geth hunters and health draining pyros might as well be instant kills an average team that lets their guard down can be taken out by one of either.

This is insane! I just played a match on Dagger with Silver on AND IT WAS WORSE THAN GOLDEN REAPERS! There were literally six Geth Primes on Wave 10 and if you climbed a ladder to escape, another Prime was waiting for you! The Geth are a tad bit overpowered now and I don't like it!

Who agrees with me?

Psst.......don't climb up a ladder.  Geth are more challenging now. My Krysae X loves it.

[asaiasai]

I am sorry but i love shooting the Geth more than i do any of the other races. Cerberus is lame and weak with the exception of phantoms, which can be annoyying. The reapers as organics are by far the easiest for my Justicar or kill or control. I kited two banshees for an entire silver round with my AJ plinking and reaving until the team finished the objectives then they came along and helpe me finish the second one.

I love shooting the Geth because they are more difficult. They take more damage, are relentless in thier pursuit, and really understand how to flank. Cerberus are easy, Reapers are easy, Geth make me earn it.

[greghorvath]

i think if silver is too much for you, maybe you should do bronze for a while and then try again.

asebstos: Blame the FBWGG farmers... or blame Bioware for not tweaking the map and removing that counter.

Or you could just blame those that can't handle leaving a lobby or building a friends list...

They're no OP, they're just the most annoying faction ever with all that stun and accuracy and flamethrower animation inconsistent with range and buggy rocket troopers throwing at least a couple of rockets at once and these freaking turrets appearing behind your back, two walls and three corners from Primes. Seriously, **** that. I truly hate Geth, but they're not OP, they're annoying and buggy. It's the only reason I do not like playing RRG lately.

Oh for the love of god. You love killing geth you may play as a geth but you love killing them.

Now if I recall, I remember a certain someone, dying to get his unwavering medal, and I remember a certain bad ### coming along and helping him get it. I was there as well, but that Adept kept blowing geth up. Okay yeah she died a lot and put warp on everything so when we blew it up she got the points but still, the Geth were not that hard to wax. No plan on gold staying in a bad position, and camping the landing zone twice like newbs and we still got full extractions. It was reactor and Ghost. Okay yes on ghost I did not make it to extraction but only because I was just helping you get your medal and I needed to pull half those enemies off you guys because you were in the extraction zone again. Extraction zone camping is bad!

So on Ghost and Reactor, a group of players who never played together before, smoked it pretty easily and that was with us making a ton of mistakes. The Geth are not that bad. You just got to know how to fight them. Me and Nate never played together before that and it was not that bad, and Reactor can be tough for some people. I believe someone has an unwaivering medal now Mr Kiss Dat Ass. Hmmmmm?

And yes I am giving Nate the Buisness. Kiss Dat Ass? You cheeky ####. See what I did there?

[Cundu_Ertur]

What the heck happened with the geth? OP is right, geth on silver now are worse than the geth used to be on gold. And for those unclear on the concept, silver is not supposed to be as hard as gold. Two random games in silver, wiped wave 6 on objectives. The first one was a hack on goddess in the middle of the atrium. I got 10 revives there before using up all missiles and all health packs.
Not seeing the point of this, it isn't fun. It isn't a challenge. It's masochism.
And before some griefer son of a something says 'go back to bronze,' I've been playing silver matches consistently for the past two months, and do alright against silver cerberus and reapers. Geth are supposed to be less than the reapers, I think they're even supposed to be less than cerberus. Now they are the worst.

And NO it isn't the fault of the farmers, it's the fault of the anti-farmers and Bioware for listening to them.

[Xaijin]

They need a sniper and they'll be right where they need to be, instead of cannon fodder.

Climbing a ladder is usually suicide.

Definitely.  Don't do this if there's enemies nearby.  You're completely helpless against gunrfire while climbing a ladder.  Going down a ladder isn't quite as bad, but still bad.

To be honest OP, I haven't really noticed a big change in Geth behavior.  I usually don't rely on the AI being stupid in order to kill them though, like a lot of people used to do with the Geth.  I typically treat them the same way I treat Cerberus and Reapers, just pop headshots and keep away from the problem enemies.  Overly simplistic, but there it is.
