 If all your team is down after you get the money on wave 10 please be curteous enough not to waste the  lives of your teammates by spending 10 minutes trying to solo the wave.. your time might not be valuable but others is. Thank You.

edit: Ok lets restate the situation for clarification.

1. its post wave 10 Credits
2. all your teammates are not revivable
3. you are unable to dispatch the remaining enemies quickly

 what is being assumed but irrelevant

1. its credit farming- you are taking unnecessarily long 
2. you have a mic- 99% of the time even if they do have a mic they are not cooperative no matter how polite you are
3. this shouldnt be expected in PUG- its common courtesy, party composition is irrelevant its about being respectful to the enjoyment of others.

 bottom line if you are the sole survivor on wave 10 and you are running around for 5+ minutes you will be resented by a portion of the population.

 happy travels.

I approve of this messege. It's pointless to extract, especially when you're in a team where everyone is max level, not like you need the xp.

If your time is so precious, don't waste it on BSN or for that matter, playing video games. Get back to work.

So if they don't want to finish wave 11, but X person does, this person should just go with the rest of the lazy players?

Yeah, no.

Also if your time is so valuable then what are you doing playing computer games?

I've never seen anyone that does last more than a minute.

If they aren't a knowledgeable enough player to know it's suicide time then they probably don't have soloing skills.

Maybe a good player was trolling you. :P

So you are saying people shouldn't try to win and should give up. Plenty of people out there want to complete the whole mission whether for the XP or just because it is part of the enjoyment they get out of the game. I say shame on you for giving up. You sound like the type of person who seems to feel like using a medi-gel is the worse thing you can do. If you are playing with friends and you all agree to not get back up, fine, but don't blame randoms you play with for wanting to win.

I play for victory, not for money. People should learn to play the game, not to farm to play the game sometime.

I find it funny to watch somebody use all 5 of their medigels trying to solo the wave and not kill a single enemy.

Not ashamed to admit I did this the other day.

Was in a Gold match where everyone went down after the objective was finished.

Cloaked and revived every single dang one of them, every time they went down.

Adrenaline Mod III with TC Duration whatwhat!

If they want to spend ~10 minutes soloing and using their consumables, I'm happy to just read threads on BSN on the meantime.

If you think time is wasted, you have ways to spend it better.

FFS it's a damned video game, not the olympic trials.

The term "giving up" only applies if you set a goal and decide to "give up" on reaching it. 

Flamboyant believes that winning means accomplishing the mission. Which you do after wave 10. There is absolutely ZERO incentive to continue on past that point, other than some romanticized belief that you're some kind of war hero or video game god.

Q-Q

wave 11 is redundant and a waste of time.

Sorry but its the truth, its only made for a false sense of being victorious above an artificial intelligence.

 When do you think i posted this? during the ten minutes my money was being held hostage.

 This isn't telling people how to play, its etiquette. You can do it all you want it just makes you an inconsiderate douche and then i add you to my avoid players list.

You're right, you should never try to be the best at or do the best you can no matter what it is. Sounds like the try-hard comments you hear in FPS. Like I said, if you are playing with friends and you decide not to get back up fine with me. I do it all the time because we don't need the xp. However, you choose to play with randoms you will come across people who want to win for one reason or another and I see nothing wrong with that.

The entire game is a waste of time. Nothing any of us do while playing this matters in the least. It's about fun. If a person wants to finish each game fully, then nobody should be getting on their case like "Oh just die already so we can farm more credits". Want to be with likeminded people who want to die after wave 10? Private matches say hello.

From now on, I will always use 5 gels and spec-ops only wave 11, just because you made the most time-wasting post ever. Mission accomplished?

If in the pre-game lobby, i see that someone isn't level 20 (Even if it's just one guy) then i'll extract. Otherwise, i expect them to die alongside me, lest they have to go through the extraction wave without me.
