I wish the Dev team could hear the sounds players make when it's set to U/U/G and the players get Geth on Condor/Hydra/London...

"Ohhh F this! Not again! I'm not doing this **** guys!"

"Ugg... Geth... let's just quit now so we don't all get pissed off/have headaches."

"Dude seriously... what did I do to deserve this."

"Well... at least we have a Kroguard."

As a last personal addition to this otherwise wonderful thread let me just say I never get what is described in the quote above.

There is only one friend who always says he hates whatever faction we are put up against, and that's only to mock me for the reaper hate I used to have when we started playing together about 6 months ago. I have gotten over it, thanks for asking.

I must seriously be playing a different game to everyone else. This never happens in random PUGs (OK, on PC, no one talks, but extraction against geth isn't any more frustrating).

I UUG'd Hydra/Geth/Gold last night, luckily as kroguard, and came third! With a 106k points! That's not atypical of a UUG Geth game for me.

I agree that stun is annoying, sometimes not just with the Geth.  If you have latency you can get stunned to death by a Scion, although admittedly this is much less likely than against the Geth.

Scion bullets don't having homing rounds.... they can be avoided by simply strafing if you have a little bit of distance between you and them. The only character I can strafe away from Prime shots with is a Drell w/ Adrenaline Module...

I think there is also an assumption that you should be able to get away with running in the open if you are "skilled" enough... which is essentially what many of the Geth units are built to counter.  It is a cover based shooter afterall.

Running in the open works just fine against Cerberus and Collectors, and is thouroughly recommended against Reapers.

Besides, what kind of shooter would actually deny you the opportunity to flank ? That's the most basic concept ever. They're coming towards your teammates, you take a detour to try to flank them, they immediately fire 3-4 rockets at you and then turn around, you're dead and you didn't even get to shoot a single shot. WTF is this ? Just freaking retarded.

Yesterday I played a Drell Adept with Adrenaline Module III and primes could still hit me just fine. Only basic troopers missed.

One fourth the game is unplayable?

Try half. Take a Biotic class against Collectors sometime and try to tell me otherwise.

Not sure if serious.

Short answer is that you aren't denied, outside of when a rocket trooper gets to fire more rockets than his quota.

The other problem is that Geth rarely require flanking as they just slowly walk through choke points as to let you combo and AOE them to death anyway.  Which is an issue, to be sure.

People that claim drones die to air need to remember that a lot of people like to play with single shot powerful weapons and using a claymore shot to kill a drone is usually a waste.

Geth gold are manageable, but certainly NOT fun.

I suggest bioware to make the nightmare difficulty

Phraetorians
Primes/scions
Geth units- minus trooper/collector captain
Possessed Abominations

That would so FuN

I think most everyone agrees on that, but just not to the degree that they should alter them.

Geth are an enemy faction?

I totally forgot that.

Ha! ha! I play a lot of PUG's though, so I play a lot of Geth.

What's strange though, is when I solo against Geth, they aren't half as annoying. In squad matches they get ridiculous. Same goes for Dragoons on Cerberus.

[HK-447]

I have a great idea, why dont we reduce platinum's difficulty to bronze's difficulty? maybe even make it so Geth hug you instead of pyroing the hell out of you, or maybe even make them give you their shield bonuses! I laugh so hard at everyone who's requesting more nerfs, the game is SUPPOSED to be challenging, and if its not irritating, its not challenging

[saintjimmy43]

I don't want an end to geth stunlock. I want them to burn.
Burn them all. BURN THEM ALL.

Cheapness = Challenge was how games were made in the 80's.

Which characters are you using to solo vs which characters are you using in the team games?

Looks like I annoyed some people..... =P

Only agree about these points. Geths need stunlock mechanics or we would steamroll them, they are a slow and fairly non chaotic faction. Yes, it's annoying to be stunclocked, but look at the broad picture, challenge is important.

Not really. Your feeble mind provides endless entertainment, though. Kudos if you got the reference.

So true.

Anyone remember how punishing NES games were? There were games where you had to literally memorize the entire level before you could pass it (Battletoads comes to mind). That type of difficulty has gone the way of the Dodo... as it should have.

Other factions are challenging w/o needing stunlock. Don't see why Geth can't be the same.

Every faction got a different personality and systems to be a challenge, as I've said geths are the slowest and less "anarchic" of the game factions, less prone to swarming. Stunlocks are their only system to become a threat. If they change their dynamic they are not geths animore.

Diversity is great.
