Strange to see so many complaints about bad Gold pugs... I always PUG Gold and succeed (at least as far as Wave 10 objective completion, but usually extraction) like 90% of the time. And it's not like I'm a super awesome player that carries the team very often; I could count on one hand the number of times I've successfully carried a Gold game, and have fingers to spare.

Make sure all your teammates are N7 >120, near enough to lv20, toting a set of decent guns with two mods each, and loaded with a Gear and some consumable equipment. If you have that you should be good to go (after a quick prayer to not get Collectors). If not, find another lobby.

Remember to use Submission Net first.

Essentially, the first 6 waves are a cake-walk on gold 
From wave 7 on it gets harder and i can see if my randoms can handle gold or not...usually they can

Sometimes you have to go to "the Lone wolf" mode and it is only way to succeed in some games,but then in the next game,people start to work together.
My opinion is,that in PUGs players think,that the other teammates are noobs and don´t care much.

Yes, yes you do.

[P51Mus7ang]

If I have one friend that I run gold with, we can pretty much always handle two random whatever's.

If you would like to run some gold as I am working on the map banner, feel free to add me, GT/XB at left

I recommend whips and chains for dominating.
For penetrating... anything phallic will do.

The kind with tiny blades on them?

I have a most troubling inquiry, you see I like gold. A little platinum but mostly gold. Now then I want to know what is it that I can do to improve the quality of PuG gamers so that I don't end up using most of my consumables desperately trying to break even by the end of the match?

You see what happens is that I jump into a typical gold pug lobby and all looks well, we get in game and things go as planned. Until wave 7. At wave 7 it's like these people become possessed by sh*t gamers of turkey day past and they essentially wipe the team. On more than one occassion I'm able to save the game and get the credits for everybody. But recently my consumables are starting to dry up just a little bit and it's not that fun anymore.

Must I play with friends and friends only?

I found the best way to get fellow PUGers to use equipment is to TALK. Tell them you're firing a missile, that you're using medigels. That you're out of spec ops kits, etc. Ask for missile counts at the beginning of Wave 10 hacks. If people know you're actively expending resources IMO it seems to motivate others to do the same. Not always, of course, but typically I *do* get better results.

Edited to add: I'll also "remind" people when it is down to just me and one other person on a wave. "It's just you and me, guy." Goes a long way towards establishing that it's all down to you two. I'll also ALWAYS praise those that clinch waves, especially if they use consumables. 

I'll also call out people in the lobby for not using gear, but only on occasion. This does NOT seem to do much but placate my annoyance at those with high gear (X rares and high end URs) yet no equipment.

You're supposed to use the consumables.

Buy em a drink first;)

Going off what I think you mean:?.  Mediocre Pugs will typically stick to one side of the map at all costs. You should stay away from them, they will take most of the aggro forcing them into cover, leaving you free to run around and kill things.

For example these PUGs (a demolisher and two destroyers)camped the base of the stairs on Goddess, while I mostly stayed outside but ran around and grenaded spawns (QME.)

I'm sure you're using medigels on the rare occasions you do go down on the other side of the map from your team, though, right?

Of course, I actually used them all because I had to take risks to revive the rest of the team several times (see 10 revives medal.)

every time one of them fails, play them the sesame street theme tune down the mic, loud and slightly off key and off tempo.

They'll soon learn to avoid failing, and the people that do.

thread read: dominate and penetrate

[Wynne]

Javelin with both penetration mods and the highest level of drill rounds... I'll be in my bunk.

As for domination, I recommend what Inglu suggested. Lash is only effective if you go all the way with it to show you're serious. Submission net has multiple uses, not all of them so extreme.

Make sure all your teammates are N7 >120, near enough to lv20, toting a set of decent guns with two mods each, and loaded with a Gear and some consumable equipment. If you have that you should be good to go (after a quick prayer to not get Collectors). If not, find another lobby.

This is my experience as well.   I PUG Gold about 1/2 the time and I will just keep leaving lobbies until I find one that meets OniGanon's criteria, and it is working for me.
