Good job Redjohn. I was waiting for your platinum shadow solo. Very impressed.

Never mind the skeptics, they probably aren't familiar with your frequently stated lag issues and reputation of not BS'ing people.

Even with full health & shield upgrades + Shield Booster V the Shadow is one of the weakest characters in the game. I don't believe this for a second.

The Shadow gives the GI a run for his money. She's one of the top 3 best characters if you're a halfway decent tactician and don't go striking into a group of primes and pyros.

And even if you're a brilliant tactician and execute every shadow strike perfectly without getting hurt (which is impossible) you still won't come close to the raw DPS of a destroyer or a GI. Both the latter kill much faster. Now if a GI with Krysae, one of the most OP builds in the game completed platinum solo in 40 min, you can't tell me a Shadow managed the same time. To top it off it's on Vancouver, where spawns are so random that 9/10 times you'll get a brute spawning right on top of you. Yet, despite that, RedJohn has a ton of medigel and survival packs left.

Yeah, totally legit yo.

It hasn't been proven that he's lied before so now all of a sudden he starts lying because he holds BSN's opinions oh so very high! The same BSN that's petty and fickle when it comes to soloing and guide making? The BSN gets so very skeptical and jealous of each other, so Redjohn decided he'd fool you because he holds the BSN's petty opinions above all else?

Sounds legit.

GI is the go to class because it requires absolutely zero skill. My 3 year old could solo PLATNUM with a GI Krysae. The GI in general is nothin' but a beginner class for Gold. I would know. 

The destroyer at least has mobility issues and requires planning ahead in order to succeed. 

Shadow's actually better in my eyes because I know that if I make a mistake, I pay for it immediately. I can't say the same about the GI. Besides, how are you going to make a mistake when you see everything coming(even with a 15m hm)before it even reaches you? Not to mention the blatant power of a Prox/Shotty build with a GI Claymore? 

He's great for speed runs though, or for people who enjoy being nigh invincible.

Hasn't been proven he's legit either. Since part of the BSN are content with having a screenshot and a 2 min extraction wave video as proof that someone accomplished a feat in a game, that's all right. But to me, that's no proof of anything. And I was willing to let it slide until the claims of solo runs became too ridiculous for the proof to hold true. See where I'm coming from? 

It's only my opinion and I can't prove he's lying either. But seeing as ME3 isn't the most hack-proof game around, he's playing on PC as well, so there's a ton of ways you can give yourself an unfair advantage. 

There also software out there that allows you to finish games much quicker than normal but it's bloody obvious if you record and watch the video afterwards. Enemies highlighted in red rectangles, much like a wallhack.

Anyway, that's just my opinion.

Does my opinion weigh more/less than the average players? No, it doesn't. But I've soloed plenty and I know when some things don't look right. 

It could be that he's an amazing player. But wait a minute, everyone on the PC knows that you are as good as your hardware. Does he have good hardware? No, he doesn't. And playing at 30 FPS isn't optimal, means your aim is snappy and you cannot do precision shots as well. So if you need to drag or sweep it's a lot harder with such low FPS. And on platinum solos you absolutely have to do that every single time. Another reason for me to doubt these claims.

I like to use duration on Tac Cloak since I can get 2 Shadow Strikes out of one cloak.

Exactly. Nobody really knows yet. I understand your doubts. But multiple people that's played with him vouch for the guy. He hasn't been banned for cheating in about 3 months. So there's that. 

I think the method suggested earlier's your best bet at finding the truth. Have John host and bring another player along to die and record the match.

As always sir, great job.

Pirahna kill bosses so so fast, you just have to know how to fight them because obviously I don't go to the middle of the mob, no no no, I kill the non bosses first.

So true, I love the N7 Piranha such a beastly weapon for bosses. Takes them out easily with this gun.

I don't post to much here but sometimes, il like watching some video from best player here.. but one player require my attention, someone who is not like other.. Why ? because he has crazy build while the others have more normal build. His name : RedJohn

He did what no one can do, and faster that you can imagine.

At first I thought a bit, I know there are talented gamers but this time it too much. too much is too much.
The only proof this impossible mission is a video extraction where he plays like a beginner.

Video wich really impressed made by dude in this forum :

or


If you can do something like this for one or two wave with your crazy build for platinium, While I recognize that you are the best player in the world by a LARGE margin.

someone needs to get in his solo game with him die &
then record the whole game in spectator

[bondiboy]

Great work mate. I can see why you were too buggered to join me in a game after that effort. BTW  RJ doesnt know me so why would he politely knock back my invite and tell me he had just spent an hour soloing Platinum  and was too tired to play for awhile..... if it wasn't true. No point lying in this situation .

Wait for what? I would like to believe John, but knowing Platinum and knowing Specter's and other's efforts, it seems unlikely, for example Krogan Soldier? with a Harrier? with plent of consumables left?

And the GI is not a class that anyone can excel with, far from it, I have played with amazing GIs and GIs that were horrible, yet you make it seem that a GI gives you magic powers.

[Brownfinger]

I salute you, sir. You're monstrous.

Come now Stardusk, you mean to tell me there are actually players that are SO bad that they fail with a wall hacking, supreme weapon damage, cloaked Geth? HM highlights enemies in red, you can't miss them. Proximity mine weakens enemies and does decent damage. Coupled with the Claymore? Your chance to succeed doesn't get any higher than with the GI. Accept it. 

We are waiting for someone to play with him and record or for him to upload a full match to silence the skeptics. If he just ignores the suggestions for proof of this accolade, I believe he loses credibility with the skeptics and heavy hitters around here.

But what's wrong with Krogan Soldier?, I mean it's a tank.
I have done gold runs without die even one with Krogan Soldier and I have a video from wave 10 and 11 with Krogan Soldier on gold doing the hack objective, but that video must be seen in some kind of slow motion because I was a noob recording and for some reason it has superspeed.

 




I mean, you people are to boring only playing infiltrators and saying that Drell Adepts are terrible for gold and unaceptable for platinum or Krogan soldier this and Asari that.

If someone join me I will lag and most of the times lose connection, If I join someone I will lag, no need to trust me, believe to the speedtest

Well, Air Quotes said that he wants to see a full wave 10 on platinum, I will try it, but I can't assure you nothing because while recording the game becomes REALLY slow, most in platinum because there are more enemies, but if I do it, it will be Hilarious because then, some caribbean guy with a pentium from 2005 playing at more or less 10 FPS managed platinum while some people can't even at 60 fps.

I don't know why people never, i mean, almost NEVER consider my low fps...

But anyway, I will try it, not sure if I could do it ( probably yes ) but I will try it.

Claymore is not in the same realm as Piranha on GI really.  The Piranha is indeed idiot proof due to the rate of fire and DPS.  My sniper hybrid GI kills Atlases in 2 clips on Platinum with the Piranha (gear and consumables on it of course).

Oh yes someone else who uses the Pirahana on this class other than me!!!! I realized his boss killing potential with the Pirahana as well!! It is really amazing! Though I doubt I could ever solo gold with him, let alone plat! Great job!

If the Shadow looks male to you, you have issues.

Maybe you could record using a video camera? Then your fps wouldn't be effected. I'd love to see full solo games from you.

Nah, it's not that. It's he ONLY shows extraction. We don't care about extraction. Record a wave 10. Whole. 

Why... would he go through the trouble of recording a wave 10 with extreme lag just for you?
It proves that he won a platinum solo. How he did is is described in his post.

did everyone leave at wave 10

I'm not trying to be a jerk here. I'm just curioius cause I've seen his past vids and all his recordings are like 1:30...where I like to see a whole video. If it's very laggy...well I'm sorry. but unitl I see full proof, I'll remain skeptical.

I agree with Air Quotes, and Sp3c7eR (and others who are like minded)

46 minutes? Congrats for surviving with such a squishy class, but I honestly dont buy it.

With so many bosses on the field compared to gold, how did it only take an extra 20 minutes to finish?

Fixed this for you.
