The Arc Pistol is a very good weapon, y'know.

For petty theft and ding dong ditching perhaps.

Charge shot = more damage than carny and more accurate
non charged shots = basically the same rof as predator, same damage as phalanx as far as i have experienced.

Umad?

If I'm having fun I always forget about the ESC button.
Last week I played with a Paladin that kept putting his shield up so the team could kill stuff in tough situations. We played like ten games and let me tell you something it was the most fun I had in this MP. He almost always ended in the bottom of the scoreboard but we didn't carry him, he carried us helping the team achieve victory, in the end it's all that matters not ho has the biggest e-peen.

I don't know about the shadow, dude. You have to pick your targets carefully or you are toast.

nah. just SS anything thats not a banshee, prime, brute,atlas, or ravager and it kills them in one shot. nto dificult at all

I think what he meant was that you have to be sure who you are targeting in a group.  There have been a few times I was targeting a marauder just to have a brute step between us as I hit SS.

I see what your saying. All i meant is that you can easily top a scoreboard with that character w/o actually being that good at the game

Wow at some people here. smh

A low score doesn't tell the whole story of a match, OP, so I can't say anything except that other the guy was rude.

Anyway, I played with many that scored +30k but were helping the team more than the +70k. Btw some people try to save their missile for wave 11 to score higher.

Using missiles on wave 11... now there is a great debate.  Big feud between those who insist on hugging a banshee when wave 10 ends and those who are purists and want to extract even though it doesn't pay.

Btw, I agree with you.  I don't look at the scoreboard to know how people help, and I wish all actions contributed to the overall score.  Biotec and Tech explosions can be the most complicated means for determining score due to how the points are awarded.

Since I don't want to be a ****** I'll say this, just ignore them.

What is the relationship between score and match time?

Match length has nothing to do with score directly, killing/damaging enemies is the only way to earn points (minus objectives, which not only award points, they also give more for completing them faster, not to mention that enemies keep respawning infinitely until the objective is finished, meaning longer objectives allow you to get more kills and thus more points). Objectives aside though, there is no correlation.

Hahahaha said the divorce lawyer.

As to being carried, OP, I wouldn't sweat it. Why care what the player thought of you?

I honestly stopped reading after halfway through the third page. If you really do the objectives, revive people, and overall do helpful **** the whole time, then I'll gladly "carry" you anytime. But I wouldn't consider that carrying. As someone posted earlier (don't remember who, sorry), I would really only consider it carrying if I had to solo the end of the wave multiple times through a match.

[eltdown]

OP, you've probably figured out you can just ignore the guy. Always good to take what you can from the advice given in this thread though.

I ventured into Gold for a couple of games with my Turian Sentinel / Hurricane. Surprisingly I topped the scoreboards with 100-125k (that says more about the team than about my skills, perhaps). Both games we had a GI doing near-constant revives at points - they scored last but I would've thanked them if I'd had a mic.

I will also swear the Hunters were dodging my overloads. Ugh. Also: Geth / Condor. Ugh.

[Nightwind93]

It looks like you where the one carrying them. I hate when people think score means everything. Score just only means you where killing alot more, it doesn't mean you where doing objectives

Loose the arc pistol and piranha.
Both are horrible weapons.
Try Geth Shotgun, way better.
That being said my average score is 30-50k on Gold.
If I get higher than that then that's because the game went to pot and I had to run around solo.

That's just, like, your opinion man. My opinion is that you suck with these weapons, and as such, say they're bad.

[Star fury]

33k with Paladin vs Geth? That's pathetic and GI was probably right. You can get 133k points with Paladin against Geth, spec energy drain next time. Energy drain + Snap freeze do wonders. One of the classes that eat geth for breakfast.

With new weapons you easily can kill more than enough enemies while reviving and doing objectives.That's just excuse.

Guy's driven by score..would have berated anyone who finished last.
And would probably have accused anyone who finished above him of cheating.

[ChickenDownUnder]

As someone who had been playing a heavy damage dealer recently I actually find that matches go better if there is at least one other player going the support route. I might be able to kill alot, but that makes me super squishy.

Being super squishy doesn't do me much good during Objectives and practically need that support player to help draw off aggro.

Though, with that said, can't really make an informed opinion on if the OP was actually carried or not without having been there to see the match for myself.

a defensive paladin can score 30-40k on gold vs, geth and still do more for the team than the GI. just saying, if you dont know how it works, i feel sorry.

I would like to run into one of these so called players. I have yet to see anyone carry another player. I see a bunch of people running their mouths,but never backing up their claims.

You have not,and will never carry another player. Your attempts at being "cool" are failures.

[infithehuman]

If the game was less than 30 mins, AND if the other 2 were also two high damage classes, 33 is ok. Lots of players play slowly but well, some play fast and well. I play slowly. Occassionally top the scoreboard, usually come 2nd or 3rd and occassionally fourth. But due to my playstyle i do not score very highly (usually 60-80). 100+ if the team is bad. <50 if the team is filled with high damage good players. If you can confidenly say you can/have soloed later wave gold (8/9/10) when your team was down, you have not been carried just outkilled

Then, it doesn't seem like anyone knows how this game works.  Until we know how it works, how can we say someone is carried?

Do what exactly?
If you play Paladin actively vs Geth, actually killling mobs with tech bursts and guns, you'll considerably shorten a game and will have more fun.

If your team was really constantly revived by you and you did all the objectives, then you carried them. No matter what the scoreboard said.

I would like to adamantly agree with this comment.

If it is how the OP said, then the OP was actually the one carrying the three.

If he was drawing the fire, allowing for his teammates to shoot more out of cover and reviving them when they got down and the only one actually doing the objectives.

Truth be told, he carried them regardless of score.  Ignore the elitist who say otherwise.

I played a game once with two of my friends and a random pugger.  One of my friends didn't want to drop into game chat so there was no mic speak between us and him.

We played about 4 games before we all stopped to deal with RL stuff.  In all of these games he never once scored over 40k and most the times he was around 30k.  We never once thought that we carried him.  Quite the opposite we thought he was a great player despite his score.  Because most of his actions supported the team, he was often the one who went in and raised my friends who were tearing apart the score chart and managed to escape alive in most cases.

He was not playing a support class like a Salarian, it was just a simple matter that the 2 top scorers were being reckless and destroying the enemy.  They couldn't have gotten away with it if it wasn't for him.  They knew that.  They acknowledged that.

I could tell he was trying hard to get his score up though as he kept swapping classes and doing other things hoping to improve it, but alas my two friends were literally wrecking balls and I didn't leave much left for him to kill either.

But he died maybe once or twice an entire game, much less than the two top scorers who were flat on their back from their more suicidal but high scoring ways and always helped out with objectives the best he could and in the right proper way.  If he needed to protect a point he was there, if he needed to draw attention away from the enemy, he was there.

My friends wouldn't have played that offensively if they couldn't depend on everyone on the team, the fact they could meant they could let loose.

TL/DR:
Score isn't everything, a low score can still come from an extremely valuable and vital player to the team.
