Does his guide really make it that easy?



Here is the direct link to his video guide.  It is an hour long, but you only need to watch 15 mins or so to get the idea.

www.youtube.com/watch


I saw it, it's just that Caineghis is already really good, so I can't really take "this makes things into easy mode!" from him seriously until someone verifies it. It's nothing against him (I've played with him, he's awesome and taught me the Devastator Mode toggle technique), other than that he's too good to be saying "it's so easy a caveman could do it."


That's not really what he's saying.
In the video he says that this guide is for people who can already solo gold. For them it's easy mode.

EDIT
And that doesn't mean with a kroguard btw. With a real character.

I think this is a disguised brag thread, but whatever. Anyway, good job OP.


Pretty sad if I have to brag about cheesing Platinum.  I was just trying to make the point that if I can do it using his guide, anyone can.  Plus, I have seen many posts stating that Lone Wolf is the only banner that takes skill, which doesn't seem to be the case.


Fair enough.  I didn't think soloing gold with the Geth Trooper was that easy, but then again I did it on White (a week ago) rather than Giant and specced full hunter mode and 4 in fitness.


 

Soloing on PC is harder than soloing on ecks bawks.

Tried both. PC has the whole framerate thing but faster turning and non-locked sprint camera are very very handy.

:wizard: AI being dumb is quite an advantage on objective waves. Try playing with 1Magnolie as host, you can sit doing a disable device objective with a group of Marauders around you and their AI is so slow that they won't start hitting you until you've already finished the objective and run to the next one.

Oh yes definitely. We wouldn't just modify bronze so that it gave us 9999999999999999999999 credits per game, we'd modify gold so it was easy to do. :P

With missile glitching infecting PC now, there is no telling what will happen next.  The world is in shambles.:wizard:

I've only seen one missile glitcher on PC (the same one TheKillerAngel met). He joined Xcal's lobby when xcal and I were playing Plat for his BoTB banner. I asked him if he was a glitcher and he said yes. I trash talked him until he switched weapons.

Then on wave 1, Xcal's computer crashed and we had to restart anyway. trolololo

surprisingly enough, I have only run into a total of two missile glitchers in my time. I know others have not been so fortunate, but I will say it was joyous kiting a banshee into one of them for a sync-kill then dying myself to end the wave. It was glorious.

As you should.  

I think it would be a good policy for most posts on BSN.  People would take things a bit less serious than they do currently.

This is my first gold solo. http://social.biowar.../index/15065838

It doesnt require much raw skill. Just a good understanding of game mechanics.

I used to read your posts in the voice of the polite Krogan you meet on Omega Illium in ME2.

I dont think the wrex voice would work to well for phrases such as "PC Master Race" and "Dirty Console Peasants".

On second thought, I think that would perfect for those.

Seeing things like this are strange to me.

"After seeing a guide that explained how to do something, I tried it, it took a few shots to succeed, and then I did it! Means anyone can do it, no skill at all!"

Humans are strange. Unlike animals, we're able to share and acquire knowledge. By and large, we still regard information obtained by education as a skill. When I join the sad world of attempted employment, my resume will list things like 'Linear Regression' and 'Optimization Modelling' as part of my skillset. That I learned them from someone else doesn't mean that they aren't skills.

I mean, it isn't hard, really, but it still requires a set of skills. The other challenges, by and large, just require patience.
