Gold is a joke.

[InArts]

Because my loadout defaults to whatever weapons I haven't finished challenges for. Usually Avenger and Predator.

no you haven't I'm 100% for real on this it feels like the game has gone backworks. might be a error or glitch, maybe bioware trying to stop farming idk.

Why don't you go back to gold you elitist bastard! ;-)

takes to long bronze is over in like 10-15 mins, gold is about 25-30mins, and b/c of the oddness sliver is just to hard.

Gold with a good team is easier than Silver with a bad team, that might be what you are experiencing.  Last week, I played 2 Silver games with a team of bad players that I had to carry and 2 Gold games with a good team where I came in 2-3 on the board.  The Gold games were easier.

If you're noticing that soling Silver is harder than soloing Gold though, I think you must be doing something differently.  There's no way that should ever be the case.

better people who actually use consumables and equipment most of the time

Because you have no equipment on. Things die slower and you drop faster. Do a no equipment gold then come back and tell me how silver is easier

That's pretty presumptious. I've done gold with no equipment, I have several friends who run gold without equipment regularly, and even THEY say that silver is harder than gold.

Bwhahahahaha!

In my experience the worst of Mass Effect 3 MP are all found in Silver.
I've found better team players in both Gold and Bronze.
Not once since the release of the game have I seen a Silver player who doesn't dash to the LZ immediately upon extraction.

[bluebeam]

Maybe you were playing a low level character you don't know well with a team of inexperienced players? No way gold is easier than silver, but I know some games can get pretty ugly.

Thank you for catching that.

I've had Silver collector games be harder than gold cerberus.
Although I generally only use whatever throw away lvl 1 amps on Silver and lvl 3 amps or above on gold, so their's that.

    Achem's Razor; you thought you were on a different difficulty level than you were.

It's "occam's", not "achem's".

If you think silvers easier than gold you must have bad teammates and or crappy guns.

Granted I've just come out of retirement since early October, so I'm really behind on the new challenge system. But so far playing on Gold has counted Bronze and Silver waves - as I assume playing Platinum would count Gold, Silver and Bronze? I could defo be wrong about this though.

Even before the new system came into effect, I can understand why you would think Silver is harder than Gold.  I noticed that back in March, Gold was nigh on impossible. These days noobs can tag onto a Gold match with no problem - they do so for extra experience and credits when a competent team is playing. It's for this reason that I think Silver matches are underplayed and therefore hard to play (in terms of finding a lobby and/or filling it with players).

Also, I know I've been out of the game for a while, but I still think people haven't got over thier stinginess when it comes to using missiles/medi-gel on Silver or Bronze. Gold is defo the place to be for now, whether it's to the consternation of more experienced players.

Hardly anyone is competent to play Platinum without missile glitching and the lower tiers are full of too much competition when it should be a co-op game. I'd like to point out Killzone, CoD and Battlefield as arenas where everyone just cheats and it isn't fair/ nor can anyone really have fun.

Keep it clean, people, and have fun. We're all one big team against Bioware - and, actually, EA - at the end of the day

'Sliver'? Sounds like fun...

Anyway, not sure...

[ISHYGDDT]

I have soloed both difficulties 9 times since retaliation. Gold is harder by far. Silver is ****** easy. Maybe with exceptionally bad teammates it can be a challenge, but I only played a couple Silvers with teammates, and guess what: still ****** easy.

[Wardreamer]

I've noticed the same thing about silver seeming harder than gold. I think it boils down to two things:
1.Better teammates on gold.
2.There are more mooks on silver.

I know that second one is counter-intuitive, but with more, and faster, enemies, you are more likely to be flanked and have your cover rendered moot. It's easy to cover from an Atlas or run from a Brute, much harder to cover against 2-3 Marauders. And running from a ranged enemy is a good way to get shot in the back and die.

[mackfactor]

This is just silly. Silver is not harder than Gold. I can tear through Silver with no equipment and bad teammales, but if I have a bad team on Gold, even with high level gear (which I normally run with on Gold) I'll have to burn through half my consumables. You're being ridiculous.

[AustereLemur799]

No, this is not ridiculous. The reality is that there are more mooks/noobs (whatever you call them?!) on Gold than anywhere else. I can totally understand that Silver, for the time being, is the only place you'll find quality players.

Keep telling yourself that.

Wave composition. Less bosses on silver, so certain build suffer. Crowd control is less important on gold because there are less crowds. Probably a reason

I'd say this. It's easier to be stormed by numerous lower level enemies especially when they charge at the end of a wave than it is for larger, slower moving boss types who can be more easily evaded.

Edit: Also most people use equipment on Gold but not Silver so there may be something there.

Consumables. People tend to only use a gear bonus on silver.

[Brumisateur]

If you consider the Vickers Hardness coefficient, silver is indeed harder than gold.

I can do better in gold as a fury/valkyrie than silver, because there are less shielded enemies on silver for me to steal shields from. Cannibals, for example, are much more dangerous to kamikaze storm than marauders are.
