Now we have Geth Juggernaut, everybody is using it.
It`s all good. Players seem to do quite fine with this kit.

My problem lies with Pulse charge.. when it released it works like Geth Prime`s pulse cannon.
With exactly same sound effect of Prime`s cannon too !!
(at least to my ear)

When I fight geth.. I rely a lot on sound.
When I hear Geth prime shooting something.. it`s an immediate alert alarm for me.
Primes have almost have no range limit and their projectiles are homing. When they are shooting they are most likely locked onto something for good. (I turn to check the location of prime)

Now.. everytime my teammate release Pulse charge...
I get very stressed out... even when I am not fighting against geth..

When Fighting geth.. things are reallly bad with pulse charge..
I cannot tell if it is from my friend or dreadful prime..

Now.. mix that with Geth Plasma shotgun... and things are 5 times worse..
Who`s shooting whom where with what now?


I might be the only person bothered by this..
but seriously... did we have to use same sound effect for pulse charge release.. Image IPB

I`ll eventually get used to it.. but I wish it had different sound effect...

nah, I get where you're coming from. I had a match with two of 'em a little while ago, and sometimes they just shot the cannon while no one was around (probably to reload it) and I kept shifting around looking for the "prime" that shot at me.

It gets me even when we're not fighting geth. That sound is a bad sound...unless I'm the one playing as the Juggernaut, haha.

Same thing with the Collector Adept. I see that thing and I immediately start shooting at it. Sorry, Collector teammate. :(

Yes, people wanted to play as the geth prime so that means we get the same sound on pulse shots.

 Yeah, it throws me off sometimes too.

But I'm enjoying the sound of sweet sweet homing stunlock revenge too much :devil:

Gah... that explains the feeling of dread I felt when a Juggernaut was in the game.

(Also got startled when I turned a corner and found a Jugg w/a color scheme similar to the Prime's. Eeeep.)

I kinda panic when I hear it for the first time in game. Then I check the wave number and chill out for the rest of the game.

I hate that sound too.
I hate it even when it's me who's shooting pulse cannon.

So true.
Although it is quite misleading... I would have been vastly disappointed if it did not have some kind of pulse cannon like attacking device.

Now where is my Javelin...

I always go into "Prime hunting mode"* when I hear the team's Juggys shooting and I forget that we now have a Prime analogue.

*Trying to figure out where the shooting is so I can get behind it

Yeah, I had that a long time with the hurricane sounding exactly like a cerberus turret. You're not alone!

To a lesser extent, shadow's melee sounding exactly like a phantom's.

QFT. I played a few maps today and constantly friendly fired at the Collector :pinched:

LOL! That is embarassing. Did that a lot, too! Even vs reapers.

I played collector twice yesterday, but never had collector teammate to shoot at.
Making it pretty with pink & bright colors might help..

Imagine the confusion when you go into a Platinum Collector game and have a Juggernaut, an Awakened Collector and a Phoenix on your team.

Yeah, I had this same issue since the release of Reckoning. In my last match, this guy was colored nearly identical to a Prime. I was in the middle of trying to kill an enemy Prime when I saw a Siege Pulse come from behind me.....I spaz dodged away from that area before realizing it was a squadmate. o.o

To make matters worse there was a Collector player shooting at me with the CAR, and then there was a Geth Infiltrator colored almost identical to a Geth Hunter who also shot at me with a Geth Plasma Shotgun; I literally used an Ops pack after I thought a Geth Hunter had shot me.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that get's a bit
jumpy when the Jugg lets his shots off.

I had the exact thing happen to me, except we had a Juggernaut and 2 geth infiltrators with the GPS. I swear one of them spent more time uncloaking behind me than he did being useful.

I'm worried that will negatively impact my reaction when fighting geth, since I'll be used to the sound effect.

I thought I was the only one with this problem. Everytime, no matter how many times. I hear it and I think "Somebody's day got ruined." Then I realize I'm fighting reapahs and get more freaked out like "wtf biower!"
