Impossible, no low n7 or female gamer can put up such a number.

It's too low

If N7 is 120 or over, I look at weapons for reference. But I'm still very skeptical of anyone with N7 under 120. You can't fully understand a class until you've played it in actual MP. No amount of SP will give the same experience. And it's a lot harder to work together with a class if you don't know how it works.

im with everyone else - i could really care less about N7 ranking. i also dont really care about what kind of weaponry people are using. anyone who is shooting, killing, and surviving is doing just fine in my book. i can agree that there are load-outs that are more effective than others depending on class/build - but being effective doesnt soley rely on the weaponry alone. 

i frequently choose less typical load-outs that may not be as strong as others, but none of them ever prove ineffective to the point where i cant contribute to the team in a beneficial manner. knowing how the weapon works and the role it plays is more valuable on the battlefield than simply matching the weapon with its native class. and like many others, im sure, i have certainly chosen some pretty ridiculous load-outs just for the sake of seeing what works.

in my opinion, the most valuable skill is being able to tactically and strategically control the entire battefield through calm and calculated team work. when a team comes together to efficiently execute the threat - its a beautiful thing that no single weapon in the game can accomplish based on its own merit alone.

the only thing that matters to me, is that the rest of the team understands what were up against and reacts to it accordingly.

Wait, 500 ranking is considered a bar to many people? Well then I've been in trouble for quite some time then, and will also stay in trouble for quite some time. I hate re-lvling characters

Hm, well in gold randoms I usually only see kicks for people w/ N7 ~50 or less w/ starter wpns on low ranks and/or really low lvls (but you'd expect that for Gold, right?), and ofc for taking too long to ready. Otherwise kicks aren't that common, from 100 all the way up to the thousands, most people on PC just roll w/e, for better or worse.

[Chala]

If someone thinks that N7 rank is synonym of skill means that they don't know too much about the MP.
The only thing that matters is their weapons lvl/equipment and the level of the character they are using (Don't try a lvl 1 on u/u/G... Unless you are with friends and are/or be a masochist )

Personally I'm not too picky, for me, as long as the guy is a good player, I'll be fine.

man plays a video game, learns that N7 level is indicative of absolutely nothing, posts about it on the internet, more on this startling development as the details arise

LOL you forgot the "man learns a woman actually knows how to play a video game" part.  They always seem so amazed by that part. 

PS I'm female irl, too =P  We really do play video games.

As more and more of my friends stop playing ME3, I've been playing more PUGs. This morning, I played with an N7 3000+ who was pathetic (he ended the match with about ~8000 points, and as far as I could tell he wasn't leeching).

Tonight, an N7 20 dropped into our free spot w/ a level 20 Human Soldier and X and IX rares equipped - apparently, he's been playing for weeks and only plays the same character - we all switched to Humie Soldiers and did a Glacier/Reaper/Gold match and did pretty well (a bit hectic) and ended the match neck and neck at around 80K each. The only bad thing was that he was a bit of an odd duck and spent the first few rounds refusing to move out of the basement, ruining the spawn killing. I think we ended up at around 22min or something instead of 15min.

I promoted my characters shortly after leveling the first time, after playing the game a bit and seeing the mistakes I made on the first run-through. After that, I promoted for Operation weekends. Now, I find myself, like others, promoting so that those useless character cards (and my hard-earned credits) don't go to waste. I usually leave my favorite class alone, and level the others... on the upside, it gives me some experience with the classes I normally don't choose to play, and that never hurts...

[Sniper21987]

if u have an N7 rating under 400 then i kick ya i dont play with noobs. you people think that low is good please. just proves u cant use level 1-10 again by right you should be at 160 at the min

[NucularPikinic]

Any n7 level above 120 could be mean anything.

Under 120 though, it's pretty obvious that the players won't be as good as someone with better experience.

[PensCeltsFan]

I promote for SP war assets, so in the future if i decide to play ME3 SP i'll have enough space points to not worry about my GR. I couldnt give two monkeys about my or anyone elses N7 lvl.
Unless its more theres one player below 30 with low lvl weapons on gold, thats a good indication they havent played long.

[cory257383]

Promoting is indeed just a time stamp. But I found that it does get me some respect and they let me do things they wouldn't let others. Like an asari vanguard with claymore and widow. 100,000 points later lol

[SuperHamzah]

I stopped promoting at 360 when I realized its better to be underestmated than overestimated.

[Tzarakiel]

This reminds me of when I (N7 300) outscored my friend with N7 5000+ and the guy with N7 3500+ and the guy with N7 1200+ in the same match.

Very true.

I would have stopped at 120, but Shieldwall made me go up to 210.

I won't promote unless it's needed for a commendation pack.

absolutely true.i boosted my N7 to near 800 only for public games.i used to run the Human Soldier on Gold successfully back then when everybody thought he sucks.so im quite thankful to the ignorance of people who think N7=skill.they must have thought "lolwut Human Soldier,but hes N7 700,he must be knowing how to do it".and i did.

Holding the Glacier basement is quite easy. Probably trying to get yas to go down there! No different than doing a White/Geth farm.

[MacGarrus]

Promoted three times, only for a respec when I had no card. I don't see promotion as anything other than a Respec with a cost. I'll let my ability be my judge.

[tonnactus]

I most cases, a power heavy class + a weapon like a claymore is a fail even on silver. That would be a reason for a kick,not the N7 level.

[tanisha__unknown]

I once played a gold match with three guys that had an N7 level of 60-80 while mine was about 700. I was a bit sceptical in the beginning and just thought, hell, why not, give it a try. They were one of the best teams I ever encountered on gold.

[Rosalina is my BabyCakes]

Err ok it's the N7 rank that matters its the EQUPMENT and gear he has.
He could have been playing forever but just did not premote at all.

[lordofdogtown19]

I'm a 440 and I remember playing with a bunch of 2000s and I out scored all of them

N7 means nothing. Weapon levels however do

[GallowsPole]

There is very little that lends itself to actual skill in this game other than SA.

Speed Runs - How much skill does it really take to memorize and nuke spawn points with rockets and buddies
Stasis Snipers/Shotguns - Does this really need an explanation?
TC Melee/Weapons with ludicrous bonuses - Really now?
Playing with friends vs PUGs - Well if you do the same thing over and over again...This is why Gold is such a breeze compared to when it isn't.
N7 Ratings as we all know, does not equate to skill. Whether it be 120 with maxed weapons or 6000 with maxed weapons


I love reading these dumb arsed threads everyday with my coffee.

Today I played with a gamer I assumed would run around the feild shooting crazily into the air. An asari vanguard using a claymore...no way I thought! Using no rockets the entire match he put up a very impressive score considering the other two players were SI using the Krysae. After the match was over I asked how he put up that high of a score being so low in N7.

You know what?, I started with Asari Vanguard and claymore since i started in MP, I almost always overscored people with high N7 who asked me the same question that you ask her.

Some of us don't really like to promote, I am a big example of that, my N7 is 1300 just because of challenges, but If i were a promote fan I were like 10.000, but believe me when I say "N7 DOES NOT MATTER", is not an indicator of skill.

She actually told me it was a build similar to the one you posted in a thread awhile back. Big fan of yours John, and yes im very glad I got to see it first hand.

Really ? 


Do I know her?, I mean, she has me in her friend list?, I would like to know who is her.

You know is a surprice, I never thought that a big amount of people know about me.

She is on Xbox and asked me not to post her GT after I told her I was gonna post this. But your vids are gaining popularity. You Stardusk and Jumpin are a few I know of.
