Unless there was some sort of squad agreement before the match for every player to get themselves killed horribly, I don't see why I shouldn't be allowed to play the way I want to.

 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.


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?


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.


As opposed to the first 10 waves of AI?

You play in our lobby because we allow it. And you will die, because we demand it.

Had an interesting experience the other day. We were on Glacier to make some money and took a random to round out the team. We wiped after the objective on 10. Just as we were about to get paid, the random Destroyer revives himself. Then proceeds to take all day long to finish off the last 2 Atlases. So we killed ourselves at the beginning of Wave 11 and the guy manages to go down to the basement and hide behind the desk for basically the last minute and a half while Banshees glitch on top of him. Nobody got extracted in the end, it just took the full time.

He really taught me a lesson. Now I will never intentionally die after getting paid ever again...

Perhaps your teammate wouldn't have to spend 10+ minutes soloing if you wouldn't lay down and die. Perhaps it is much quicker for you to help clear wave 10 and deal with extraction then waiting for 1 guy to solo wave 10. Perhaps you shouldn't think that the way you play the game is better than other people's way of playing because your clearly only playing the game for the credits and not the pure enjoyment.


The true elitists of the gaming community.  No matter what genre of online game, there they are.  The "I play for fun so I'm better than you" self-righteous types.  Note how his own scenario has one member of the team going against the decision of the other three.  Why?  Because he plays for fun and therefor his way is best.  As opposed to min/maxers who play for... I don't know, the modern day equivalent of a rain dance?  Who the hell knows why the "fun" elitists think everyone else plays games.  As someone just mentioned a few posts ago, the EA servers are notoriously unreliable and every extra minute spent pointlessly screwing around is another minute tempting fate, baiting it with other people's winnings.  But who cares?  Those people don't play for enjoyment, they're obviously getting paid IRL to play the game or something.  They're obviously not enjoying it because they have different preferences.  And thus, they don't matter.  They're not even people really.

I don't mind if you want to solo the remaining wave 10 after objective is done but please do this with something other than a locust/shuriken/etc or at least use some power that has stronger bite

Maybe you shouldn't have died so it doesn't take 10 minutes for him to solo a wave and carry his bad teammates.

Actually, we were all trying to die, when our GI died and was made into an invincible floating decoy. Luckily, he was able to missile the last two Primes, and we made it to extraction... but only myself and floating GI, since the other two got disconnected like 10 seconds away from the end.

...Yeah, extraction just causes problems.

To the OP: unless it's gold, the credit rewards for the time bonus are less important to me than the XP. Unless, for one reason or another, I'm playing silver with a level 20 (usually a warmup round). I'll still draw aggro away from the main team, and if I do go down, I'll gel.

Unless you're trying to level again. But when I do that, I still run around like a damned madman, trying to kill every damned thing I can. Same thing during the objective waves, since I don't level on gold, and silver doesn't offer big credit rewards.

Wouldn't bother, but I'm annoyed that my N7 rating isn't a nice number like 1800. Really wish it could be an even thousand of some sort, but it'd have to be a multiple of 180, and I'm not going to get to 9,000.

No, I'm going to end this on my own terms. I fight for freedom, mine and everyone's. I fight for the right to choose our own fate. And if I die, I die knowing I did everything I could to stop the enemy. And I'll be the sole survivor.

in my farming runs if we have to pug 1 person he should get the picture when the 3 of us run to the nearest boss and we all get our selfs killed he should do the same thing... if not we die on wave 11 if he still doesnt get the picture we are kicking when we get back to the lobby.

The more i play this game the more i dont really acre for extracts except for weekend events

Put me on your ban list then. Because every-now-and-then I play random, and I never bow down.

You know, if a guy wants to play as a certain class and you guys want him to switch to a different class, he should just do it, because it's about you 3 guys having fun and not him.

You don't help the majority, you help everyone. If there is a cure for a rare disease, and all it needs is a bit of funding, you don't just ignore it because it barely effects anyone, you fund it because it effects someone. The kid wants to play through the whole game, like it was designed, the way you get the "mission success" screen, not the "mission failed". Maybe instead of complaining about how you have to wait for him and can't farm credits as fast, you just be nice to him and let him have fun?

That, or get a private lobby, get everyone to agree to die after you get all the credits, instead of telling random people how to play.

Yeah, I don't get that.

"Hmm, these guys have successfully played 9 rounds very well, and completed the objective without difficulty, but they all rushed that Atlas, and one got stabbed by a phantom! I have to rocket, revive, and when they die again, spend all of my consumables to beat the wave!"

I don't get how you could miss the pattern there...

That works great on PC because a whole 1 in 20 people can communicate with the others. :mellow:

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.

Ah, someone after my own heart, keep on killing those Reapers. ^_^ 

I'm not going to stop playing the game the way I would like to and have always done because someone tells me to die early. They can die on wave 10 if they want and try to get out early but I feel more satisfied with a game where I extract and the shuttle guy is happy with me and that is what I will try to do.^_^

I thought we had a CSI moment then I'm kind of sad we missed out on seeing a Hanar in sunglasses strolling through ruined Vancouver surrounded by dead Banshee to the sound of The Who.:(
