In light of overwhelming favour for Damage GI in the poll, I think objective capping is going to be difficult without spec'ing into duration.

Which is why I voted duration SI.

Damage GI will probably have zero margin for error on platinum - probably just die from tripping over! :P

I humbly swallow every word of this post. :blush:

(but he was using a krysae!)

Maybe it would be fairer to judge it based on how quickly, after it's released on PC, that someone from there can solo it?

Although I guess not everyone would be able to play as soon as it's released.

I spent my credits and looked at the new classes for a bit before beating Platinum. So that wouldn't really work....

Yeah PC not getting it yet makes this a bit unfair.

Well, I guess that something fair would be to organise an OFFICIAL race between the challengers, where they have to begin at the same hour on the same map against the same faction, while filming their runs. The one finishing in the less time being the winner, while of course wiping means a direct failure.

Well, I won't say that I don't believe him, but it surprisses me the fact that he's score was the same you get in a normal gold game.

Anyway, in my case I will record the last wave as always, I wish I could do more, but play at 11 FPS is very hard and it makes me play awkward.

But it seems that the guy is legit, lot of people voted for him, I didn't hear about him before, but he's popular on Xbox.

Problematic.

Starting with the fact of the different timezones.

Yeah I know it isn't perfect, I just can't see any other way. Not trying to take anything away from you though. I am truly impressed.

True, forgot this point.
Well then, PC soloers got pwned because of the release hour. :?

Gratz to Bahroo for the run. I have no doubt he managed to do it. There's a million and one holes you could poke in his post of why it might not be legit, but that's not the point.

If a PC user was the first to solo Platinum and they used a Krysae + GI, the PC community would laugh and call them cheap. That's all I have to say.

True & I appreciate that fully. Bahroo has mentioned he's working on another non-infiltrator run and I can definitely see he's not done the previous one to cheese the game rather than just solo for the sake of it. And that's fine. However, the enemies are supposedly balanced for the speed at which you can turn on both platforms. The Xbox has rarely any flankers, enemies aren't laser accurate etc. etc. The Krysae is a lame gun it just doesn't require any skill as long as you stand near an ammo box and spam it.

I honestly wouldn't. Sure in Gold I would. But to me anything is fair game in Platinum.

All right, I'll make a correction: every single one of the people I play with would call this cheap & laugh. It might sound as an achievement to the regular silver player, and that's fine.

Why do you think we're doing our Glacier speedruns with Claymores & Harriers? It's not because they kill faster than Krysae. In fact they don't. It's because they actually take some skill to aim and don't cheapen the game.

Not relating to the Krysae, PC users still has an advantage in that one can change from sprinting forward to strafing an enemy on the flank and resume sprinting quickly.

And more Style :police:.

Well, it seems that I will be able to solo it, which makes me little sad because I wanted this to be almost impossible and unbeatable without a good team work.

I have practice with "platinum" difficulty, I've played lot of modded games before and complete almost everyone of them, and also long ago I was with a Russian friend who mod the game too.


Well, my goal is do it with a non-infiltrator class ( i don't use infils too much either )

and you have assisted aim dont you?

I'm not trolling or trying to bother, just a question, because I don't know how that works, I've never played on Xbox360

Tbh I prefer using the Claymore or Harrier to the Krysae. Haven't use that gun in along time. I understand what you're saying and the guys you run with are obviously at a different level to the most of us (although I do mainly pay Gold). 

I just don't have an issue with people doing whatever it takes to take on Platinum. I guess I just have a bigger perception of how hard it will be (given that I'm on PS3 and it isn't available yet).

While it does help on occassions, it can honestly be a nightmare. 

Taking cover and trying to aim in on the Ravager and the freaking aim takes me to the Swarmer <_<

Heh, all right I didn't mean to come across elitist or anything. Far from my intention. But you know my opinion of the krysae now - guess you'll never see me using it.

Tbf I can appreciate that you would view Platinum differently than I.

I would consider myself a Gold calibre player, but I'm not someone that can consistently carry people through it (unless I play infiltrator). So to me Platinum would seem like a big challenge.

Whereas for players on your level I guess it wouldn't be that big a deal, since Gold is probably to easy for you guys now.

This is hardly a fair comparison since the PC doesn't even have it yet.
