1- people that run out into the open like idiot

2- people that refuse to use rockets at wave 9 when there's 3 banshees and 2 brutes surrounding us

3- tech casters that keep using overload on brutes when i already threw my warp on them and im trying to trigger a BE,in which overload cancels my warp

so what are your reasons for sometimes failing gold?

I'm guessing that your last run didn't end well?

On a more serious note, yes those seem to be the most common reasons why people fail. Funyn enough, the game doesn't really prepare one for how important it actually is to run from cover to cover, conserve missiles - so you can spend them later, and generally not running off alone to chase glorious kills.

For #3, use Throw twice to cause both a Tech Burst and a Biotic Explosion, which translates to more DPS.

In my case, when it comes to dodges and rolls and sidesteps, I'm about as good at it as I would be in real life :(

Getting cornered and enter a revive marathon instead of hightailing it somewhere safe and engage from a different angle

Always that Husk...you know the one, you are concentrating on killing XXXX, Husk hug and you die horribly. Then said Husk does the same thing to your team mates....

Quoted for truth - use instead of the conventional "Warp (loading) -> Throw (exploding)" assum that the target is already "loaded", so expanding the rotation to using "Throw (tech burst) -> Warp (loading) -> Throw (exploding)" seems to do the trick.

People who are incapable of grasping a team concept, working with others and not being a totally self absorved tool. I find this to be especially frustrating on goal rounds when some jerk is on the far side of the map from the hack running up his score(and dying). Lack of cohesion and working together has lead to the majority of gold fails I have participated in. I won't use medigel or fire a rocket is always fun too.

Technically, your Warp is not overwritten. The last Overload takes precedence, and will trigger a tech burst by Throw. Then Throw a second time to trigger the BE.

People running off either into the open or just wandering away from the squad.

I'm surprised how dumb even veteran players are.

Teams that don't understand spawn points.

Lack of communication. I don't read minds.

The number one reason I fail in Gold is..

The A Button on my xbox controller.. How many functions are mapped to that ONE key?  Obviously when I'm trying to revive someone.. I'm intending to activate a objective..

An Obviously when I'm intending to activate a objective, what I meant to do was enter cover..

An obvious when I'm  taking fire from all directions, an wanting to enter cover... What I really mean when I hit that "A Button" is to mantle, or stand there scratching my Quarian arse.

A general inability to kill one target fast enough to avoid whatever else is around. I bet even my Quarian Engineer with the Arc Grenades would suddenly find himself throwing 6 just to kill a Husk. I'm hoping for 'OK' when I try him in Silver this weekend...

Getting Grabbed by a Banshee, why is that you can grab my Batarian with his huge spiky armor on so easy? The teleport power and instant grab is amazingly frustrating!

Someone dies to a turret.

Everyone but me runs to revive that person.

They die.

Then I die because I have every enemy focusing on me.

Why do people take this stuff so seriously? It's just a game guys. It's a lot of fun but nothing to get yourself worked up about.

Good Gold teams are fun, but I'm not mad if it doesn't work out.

If you're just way to fancy to play with the plebs, then play with some other fancy friends.

In my case, it's because I have an experimental build and weapon combination for a Bronze match, which is what I asked for specifically. The combination fails big time.

My pad joystick. It's broken and does not return to center position. It makes me get out of cover, takes me longer to revi....rev... revive teammates and do device objectives, and obviously affect my aiming. I'm "used" to it, but it sucks :S

You see this? This is why some people are better at gold than others. Some people know things like this and some don't.

Why does everyone want to stand around and focus fire Banshees when they can clearly see a set of blue lasers training in on them and hear a bunch of Marauders approaching?
