Only for another spawn of hunters to crop up behind you as you're running around, and stunlock you to death because everyone is off doing their own thing? No thanks. Controlling spawns usually leads to success. You don't have to camp, but you do have to know where the spawn points, and you do have to know how to funnel enemies so that you can pick them off.DaftArbiter wrote...

had a Krogan Sentinel like that tonight OP/TC.
dude was off by himself...spawns were jacked....we were getting swarmed from all over. dude didnt want to come join us...his reason..
HE HAD THE HIGHEST SCORE.
gee...i wonder why.
... 3 of you can't even handle yourselves as a team? The entire thing sounds like overdependence on a camping tactic (and a poor one at that if you need all 4 just to execute it).
If the krogan didn't drop and needed nothing from 3 of you guys, what exactly is your complaint? That he failed to cover your bad camping tactic? Seriously? You can't even try to excuse it on cloak since he was a sentinel...
IF everyone was playing a spawn rush tactic....cool. When you got 3 people on one side of the map...and ALL the spawns are jacked up cuz one dude is running around...WELL...that is selfish.
Adapt. If spawns are such a ****, then why camp in the same place? Just get up and move.
Watching a Lone Wolf player now...

BSN rules dictate he IS a badass.
WE know the lone wolf banner is no different than anyother banner...and it would be silly to judge a person better or worse just by having it...but you cant say that round these parts!!
LONE WOLF BANNER is the only banner!!

Two different sets of skills, and his build was probably not suited for solo'ing. What it means is that he can at least hold his own and understands the basic mechanics of the games, and should be seen as that.Ice Cold J wrote...

The thing is I have yet to see anyone claim the LW banner means the player will be exceptional. At most some have argued it's one of the few that requires *some* skill, and it does.
For the most part the "controversy" has been players who post anecdotes (which are probably 90% bullsh*t) attempting to stereotype LW players.

Maybe you should try soloing. Then you probably understand the difference
between solo and team game. Soloing doesn’t need extra-ordinal skills; just
need careful planning and knowledge about location of respawn.

Agree to a point...
MOST posts (ones in LW threads) i have seen say IT is the ONLY one takes SKILL to get. The others DO NOT.
biased is as biased does.

The vast majority of the heated arguments aren't about that that. I mean, look at the OP. It's exactly as I said, anecdotes meant to denigrate players with LW banners, and you even added your own.
With that said, it *is* true that most banners don't require skill. You can spam weapons, classes, enemies etc. on Bronze to get the majority of them, and that's OK. Do a search of "EPEEN" to find a thread I made talking about this.

Depends on what you mean by "do much better". A lot of people don't seem to realise that measuring someone else's skill compared to yours is not as straight forward. I do a lot of hosting now and prior to that i did alot of quick joins so i get the pros and cons of both sides.
For example, the following are major advantages if you're counting just the scoreboard
i) You're hosting
ii) Guy drops in rather than starting from the lobby meaning equipment may be 0 and you equipped your stuff fully
iii) Guy has a weapon that is a poor mix (eg Piranha on Hydra, Javelin on Glacier)
iv) Guy is using a low dps build while you're using a high dps character
If someone manages to keep level with you and you have one or more of the above advantages, he is actually better than you. If he outscores you, he is way better than you.
Now, the scoreboard is a terrible way to estimate. Why? Take for example, a high dps glass cannon. He can score very high but part of it is because others have to spend time to revive him which eats into their own average dps. Additionally if the glass cannon was left to bleed out, he would not score anything for the rest of the wave.
Personally i use a "revives required" as a measurement. If someone cannot keep on his feet, he's not going to be very useful especially during hacks where everyone is already under pressure from at least 3 sides. As long as you can stay alive, you will win even if it takes a bloody long time.

I'd agree, except we were on Silver, so it wasn't THAT difficult.
And I see what you all mean, but I figure if someone can take out a whole wave by themselves, shouldn't they be dammned good at this game?
Anyway, thanks for kind of clarifying it for me.

I still don´t understand where did this come from? What´s with that assumption that Lone Wolf will be badass godlike figure that will run around the field and shine like three suns in morning?(why would they anyway, if they want to play relaxing team game...)
The banner only says that the person was capable of soloing gold under some circumstances at least twice. The only thing I would see to it is that if the team goes down, there are better chances that Lone Wolf can finish the wave.
I think it´s likely that more experienced players are going to solos, but that again doesn´t mean they are going to rambo in every game.
