No joke, the first few times I played with a Juggernaut (We weren't even facing Geth) I kinda freaked out and looked around for a Prime whenever I heard him shoot.

Kinda used to it now, but it took me awhile, lol.

I was having the same problem. Even playing other factions, I would quickly turn the second I heard the noise.

Lucky you Scarlet, my primephobia is so extensive, it matters not which faction I'm playing. Damn Geth have me on edge all the time...:unsure:

All of my fears melt away when I play Cuddles the Juggy. <3

I don't mind him on the team at all! <3

Everytime I hear the sound when fighting Reapers, I'm always hoping there's a Banshee Stuck on him! xD

He protects me!Image IPB

Play with me. I rarely shot it. Use it more of the damage reduction. But yea I know that feel. Someone joined as one midgame while I was playing a rather squishy adept, flipped out as he shot someone right infront of me

I recently painted mine similar to a Prime.

I broke my code of all pink characters for the greater good of trolling teammates. Eventually people will get used to it, but for now I love the panicked behavior every time I scare someone :D

I love it.

Nothing more fun than walking up behind friends and firing it right in their back.:lol:

:lol:  Me, too!  Red, with the same white stripes and red lights.  (I also made my phoenix dudes look as similar to dragoons as I could.)  Haven't noticed it freaking anyone out yet, unfortunately.

The thing that's really throwing me off right now are the poisoned Cerberus troopers.  I see a guy in bright green armor, I think it's a teammate and move on to looking for the nearest enemy... then my "teammate" starts shooting at me.

we need to just declare all primes and collectors must be bright white black and yellow maybe orange to prevent confusion.
no subliminal messaging here. humanity first!

I have had the same problem with the Shadow and Slayer (their sword sounds are the same as the Phantom) and anyone using a Talon (omg where is that Guardian... Oh it's only my teammate). It is a thing. I try not to panic and always take a quick look if I have to, to check it's actually a teammate and not an enemy.

If it's any consolation, my troll!Prime doesn't use siege pulse much. Too busy throwing out hex shields and stunlocking Phantoms into oblivion.

It's PTSD, OP. After almost a year of Geth stunlock BS, know that the rest of BSN shares your affliction.

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. :(



Haha...i did this today...twice in regards to that collector teammate!!...Image IPB.....Image IPB

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...


Psst.... The shadow has the same sounds as a phantom.  Do you want to change her too?  The Awakened collector has the same souds as collector captains like when it flies.  The Phoenix guys sound and move like the Dragoons.  And there is also the Geth Soldier aka the player pyro.  There are several characters that are out or have been out that could easily also fall into this category of confusion.  I often mistake shadow noises for a phantom near me myself.

+1... agree with the OP. I rely heavily on audio cues, and _that_ sound always makes me check over my shoulder.

Lol. Both of these always get me.

The prime cannon is way worse though. That sound gives me nightmares.

I feel your pain. Same situation, Pulse shots startle me, and running around the corner into the arms of my loving team mate in Prime colors causes me to shoot him in a panic. They're never really happy to see my bullets.

Was playing vs. Collectors yesterday and it still scared the crap out of me, tho I knew there were no primes around. Didnt' have "luck/time" to play vs. Geth, now that would be awesome :D

It's really embarrassing when you're extracting, and neck deep in Reaper troops as a Juggernaut, when the other Juggernaut, who is ten feet behind you, lets loose with the pulse cannon into the group you're fighting, and you yell without thinking, "****! Prime!"

Friends start laughing... it was awful.

Can't do much about the sound effect but i never use the geth prime's colors. The jumpiness is understandable, but you have to laugh at how much dread the prime creates in players. My guess is that the longer you've played this game, the bigger the dread.

I guess thats why i like the juggernaut. Its therapeutic.

If I turn the corner and there is a geth I shoot it

The best was the geth trooper event, I colored my GI to look like a trooper and played it the whole weekend.
