I'd just like to extend a internet kudos to a player yesterday in one of the Gold games I hosted.
The map was Firebase Goddess/Gold/Reapers. I was hosting with a 625/20 Asari Justicar while this player was a 59/4 Salarian engineer with a shuriken smg.
We played several games, all of which failed on between waves 6 and 8, with a variety of other players in the Infilitrator, Engineer, Sentinel and Vanguard classes. Topping the chart, I scored higher than the other three players put together.
The 59/4 Salarian Engineer consistently scored the lowest, and though everyone else always left at the end of the game, the Engineer stayed on and fought hard despite being outmatched. He didn't do any stupid mistakes, didn't get killed overly often, and more-often-than-not was the last player alive with me in some of the later rounds. He was a fantastic team-player, and a good sport - more valuable, I thought, than the other players on the team because he was reliable in that you knew he wasn't going to get himself killed in a hopeless situation and need a risky rescue.
I wouldn't try a level 4 in a gold match, and at 59 I was still swimming around bronze, so I suppose this goes to show that a player's calibre does not come from scoreboards and N7-rating, but comes from a player's unfaltering determination to play on to the best of their ability regardless of the challenge.
I was there him, and he was there for me.
I would gladly play a dozen hard-fought games with players like this and *lose*, then play a single game with a team of pros and find myself quickly bored.
Kudos to you, 59/4 Salarian... Kudos to you.
A pat on the back
