I use it when playing the RNG game on Platinum

 

And how many times per game it comes in handy? More handy than extra shields/damage? And how many times the team acts smart and lets you rez them? Unless you always use your mic. 


Most of the time the people I play the RNG game with on Plat are so good that it's not needed. I've probably equipped it a dozen times ever... and used it to res others maybe 20-30 times... so not that often.

It's nice that team wipe can be prevented with the touch of a button... (it can cover almost all of Glacier if you go down in the hallway).

Getting the team to act smart and wait for me to res them is no problem... b/c when the MGT comes into play is when people start running out of Gels, and when you play with good players that doesn't happen too often.

Of course we use our mics... every single game. ME3MP is like a chatroom full of wonderful people... the only bad part is having to send away so many others b/c there's only room for 4.

 I never use it, simply because:

- if I'm pugging, it only takes me to be alive to end the match, the others usually are not needed.
- if I'm playing with friends, everyone goes down less than 6 times total, so no need for it.

 

If Gold - sure. I will be able to clutch most of time. If Platinum, things can go wrong pretty fast depending on the kit. 


I don't pug Platinum. If I play platinum, it's with friends. And things do not go wrong with friends. Even if they do, I know I can waste 2-3 missiles to clutch the wave in half a minute and not let them wait.

Certainly not useless. If you are playing in a team of 4 squishes that have a hard time reviving each other like 2 drell, a geth and a volus for example. I mean... it's not the best gear FOR YOU but it sure is awesome when you rez 2 others. Also it's range is already totally absurd. You can revive the entire glacier base practically.

Imagine a world where people aren't as good as you are, and it isn't hard to imagine why people would use it.

 

I'm not going elitist over here. I'm just saying that keeping yourself alive and dishing damage plus rezing others manually is better most of the time than dying to rez them. 


Yea I know, it was just the easiest way to explain my point. Sorry if it came off as an accusation. For good players, yes, DPS makes up for pretty much everything else. MGT was made for a defensive, huddled playstyle. Imagine this gear in the demo days, where players were trying out gold with crap weapons and no idea what they were doing. When co-operation has to make up for the lack of a decent manifest/skill, this gear is great.

I thought at first that you can remote revive people... Now that would be handy. No more running into the middle of a couple brutes to revive when you can do it from a ledge up.


I also used to think this when I first started playing MP. It was the dang tooltip on the load screens that talked about being able to spend medi-gel to revive fallen teammates. Took awhile for me to realize it only worked on SP. I would love to see it implemented in MP though.

I remember when it was good AQ... when Collectors first came out. I remember equipping the MGT and when Praetorian eye lasers came through the escort/hack... it was nice to have.

Now that we're so used to countering Collector tactics... it's less useful than it was.

I touched on the in the OP. If had less medigel and less ops pack - Transmitter would be super useful and teamwork would be more necessary. And I think Bioware intended this game for teamwork.

It's still useful VS Collectors on hacks and escorts when you have 2-3 possessed abominations in the zone, Praetorian laz0rs everyhere, plus Scion/other Collector nades - team rez is awesome then. But vs other factions - not so much.

Honestly. How many of you use it?

Often, but only when I play a Volus.

If MT had unlimited or much greater range - would you use it more? 


30m is pretty damn impressive. Hopefully my teammates aren't being downed clear across the map.

I liked medigel transmitter on the volus to begin with, but it just doesn't have enough viability compared to a standard +15% weapon amp gear.

<_< weapon amp gear? You take WEAPON AMP GEAR? on a Volus? Not Hydraulic Joints for melee? :mellow: Ksssh WTF is wrong with you. First no Claymore, now no melee. Out the airlock with you.

My volus adept is reserved for melee, he carries juggernaut shield. It makes me lol everytime I select that gear, because in Unreal Tournament 3, if you pick up the damage amplifier powerup + berserk at the same time the announcer yells "JUGGERNAUT!"... and the idea of the UT announcer + volus is so hilariously awesome.

Well I have a bad habit of insta-gelling the moment I go down. So if someone has a Trasmitter, I will not see much benefit from it.

4 Melee Geth Infiltrators with Medigel Transmitter.

My friends all run into the same spawn, and just spam Melee with reckless abandon. If all four of us go down, we take turns popping Medigel.

I used it a lot. Over the past 2-3 weeks, I haven't used it at all. It's helpful. Especially in hack circles. If your in a team with really good players, it's wasted.

Its nice for pugs when fighting collectors and getting hack objectives.. or fighting collectors in general, but its tough to chose it over other options.

I like the idea of MT, but you're giving up something really good for something that has limited use.

For me, Juggernaut/ Hydraulics or Shield Booster.
