Oh god, THIS. It drives me nuts. I always yell at that point - usually because I've already politely explained that the more people we have on the escort/hack, the faster it gets done and the more money we get, but to no avail. Too selfish to help with the objective, just points-wh*ring and trying to boost your score? Good luck gettting revived.
The other night, me on my own in the hack circle, wave 10, gold.
Me: "We need everyone on the hack, guys"
Them: ...
Me: "Seriously, I'm getting overrun, this timer's taking forever to go down. Need some help here guys."
Them: ...
Me, stepping out of the circle: "Oh well, looks like nobody wants to finish the match then"
One of the Three Rambos: "Hey, is nobody hacking?"
Me: "You're using your mic now? Cool. Well, you lot were just off killing stuff so I figured I would too. Looks like we'll fail the match."
Which we did. None of them came to help, so I got myself shot and bled out, then watched possibly the worst GI in history completely fail to kill a Phantom, who skewered him, an Asari Adept with a Widow getting downed hipfiring (and missing) at a Nemesis, and a Vorcha with a Typhoon firing in short bursts at a Guardian and getting clubbed to death by two Centurions who had sneaked up behind him. Neither of the non-skewered guys gelled until the last second, just as the timer ran out.
I'd had my suspicions in the lobby, looking at their weird loadouts, but their N7s were all over 700 so I figured they must know what they're doing. If it works for them, kind of thing. Apparently not.
Grrrrr.
Exactly.
Just finished a PUG gold game. One guy, can't remember his name so I shall henceforth refer to him as Moron1, screws off on wave 1, messes up the spawn points, kills one enemy, dies on the far end of the map. Is not revived. Wave 2, same thing. I politely tell him not to run off, this isn't bronze and we're not going to get killed reviving him. Wave 3, escort. Me and PUG2 do the delivery, while Moron1 runs head first into an Atlas. I tell him to help out instead of going all Kamikaze all the time. He dies. PUG3, who up til this point has been camping out, sniper killing one enemy every hour or so, dies. Me and PUG2 finish the delivery and the wave.
By this point I have about five times the score of the others combined, leading me to think that despite their N7 rankings being higher than mine (even though that does not account for anything, I know), they're not used to gold. PUG2 draws the same conclusion and decides to play with me as a team. So does PUG3. Moron1 does not. Wave 4, he tries to be Rambo again. I tell him that we will not be reviving him. Wave 5, Moron1 does the same bloody thing yet once more and once he bleeds out, quits. I say aloud, without thinking, something along the lines of "what a fruitcaking less than average intelligent man". PUG3, who apparently all along had a mic, says he agrees. Wave 6, a hack, and PUG2 and 3 run off trying to be Rambo, both getting killed within seconds, leaving me to finish it alone.
After we finished the game, which consisted of me soloing waves 6-10 after they bled out within minutes each time, I told them to have a nice day and left, thus saving me so much swearing my mic would have melted.
