Oh, and on the failed missions, how many people fire up a solo to screw around waiting for friends, or to quickly test a gun, power, build? For every 10 extractions I get, I probably have a 2-3 "failed" solos where I was screwing around.

Hehe, yeah that's me.  Lots of bronze solo face-plants trying out guns and kit combos.

And they say no one uses the Acolyte. And they say Collectors are not OP.

Having it equipped as a secondary doesn't mean always using.  I'm sure that 10% weight capacity (w/ ULM) really makes it a tough choice as a secondary.  Besides, Bioware probably increased its popularity 10-fold when they removed the charge mechanic.

Yep.  During the chargless time, it was very, very rare for me to see a kit that wasn't carrying one as a sidearm.

thats a damn good point. i solo to finish off challenges all the time then intentioanly wipe after finishing, I must have done that a hundred times at least

[DinkumGem]

I can believe the failure rate. There is cadre of people who chose to die after wave six on a higher difficulty because it is quicker than completing wave 10 on a difficulty they can actually handle. There has also been a lot of let's die after the wave 10 objective to farm credits faster.

Oh yeah, in my case I'd say I probably have more wave 3 solo fails (where I just die after getting the objective done) than full game successes, I screw around testing things WAY too much.

Also, I'm not surprised by the Destroyer data, I see them a lot myself.

Wow! Unexpected info in there!

I wonder how I never noticed how many Destroyers I was playing with. I wonder if most of them get used in different platforms/difficulties than I play on.

[Strongwater]

i can count on my fingers how many times I've seen a Destroyer in game. I've never even played mine...

[Yosuke]

FBW is still the most popular map. I have seen this. Not only do people choose it often in lobbies that they host, but the U/U that I host for some reason end up on FBW or FBWH ~25% of the time... curse you RNG, curse you. I literally can't go five matches without seeing FBW pop up at least once.

[STRANGE10VE]

Soldiers being the most popular doesn't surprise me. It's the class that is most intuitive to those coming over from other shooters. Destroyer isn't a surprise either, I see them all the time. Seems like everyone that succeeds on platinum is on BSN.

[FlowCytometry]

1% of plats are successes? Must be all the attempted solos, cause no way that's true if you only count matches w/ all 4 players.

[RoZh2400]

They misspelled "Vanguard".

[Tallgeese_VII]

I had no doubt of destroyer being most popular along with Harrier..

but TGI being second place in such short time is amazing.

[Yosuke]

Yes, I think the reason soldiers are more popular than infiltrators is because of the playstyle.

Aside from the TGI, who is like a super soldier with his ARs, most other infiltrators are optimally sniper, shotgun, or wonky (melee/biotic) infiltrators. I surmise that most people don't have very good aim and can't reload cancel, and thus tend to prefer the "shoot a high volume of bullets and you'll hit with a few" nature of ARs over precision sniping or the relatively high risk, high reward nature of shotgun play.

[Leland Gaunt]

Haha, Destroyer, the glitcher's choice.

Also: 41% of the missions fail while the difficulty played most is Silver? That is ridiculous..

[Pugz82]

Pretty simple to see why destroyer is the #1 used kit.

Prior to the last update everyone and their mother was using the destroyer soldier to rocket glitch...hate to say it but that is why he is likely shown as #1.

Thanks for posting this!

Crazy that 41% of missions end in failure. Never would have guessed that. I'm also surprised that the Destroyer is the most popular character, I don't feel like I see a ton of those, and he's personally one of my least favorite kits.

Theres always a bunch in gold/plat pugs, just the nades/weapon perks. If you dont usually play gold/plat and you want to him, and the TGI/Krentinal is decent choice, lots of nades w/ survivability.

Y'know sarge told us to search for this Peak 15 thing... We've been here for a year.
Even the Geth relented that one day when we took down that wall over there... Btw where's our maps?
And what the hell did the Geth even want from here?!

[Shad Croly]

Damn, that's some really interesting info there, especially the failure rate of matches and the fact that only 1% of successes are on the Platinum difficulty.

Would be nice if this would shut up the people who think the game should be balanced around the highest difficulty level.

[Grub Killer8016]

ME3 MP still has a long time to go before its awesomeness runs out.

[TommyNg]

41 % of mission failed is make sense as so many have attempted to solo and fail and it counts, one person can fail 10 missions within 10 minutes.
I m very surprise destroyer is the mosty popular , I thought it is infiltrator.

[megawug]

Problem is that most people play bronze/silver. Who here plays that? So how would we know what's popular?

[Yosuke]

I think people are a little off on their estimations of the demographics here on the BSN. While people who come here for information will certainly be better on average than the ones who don't, there are still a lot of bronze/silver players lurking from time to time and not posting. I think the gold/plat players just have a greater propensity to be vocal. While the vast majority of the top 1 percent may be on the BSN, I'm pretty sure most of the BSN does not fit within that top 1, or even 10 percent. Most people here are within the top 30 to 50 percent, I'm sure, but that leaves a lot of room for the bronze and silver folk.

So the Ghost is the REAL top used class when you subtract all the idiot missile glitchers that left reporting on.

Also, that failure rate seems really high. Way higher than my average. Makes me feel good about myself.

[LDStaredown]

I'm actually not that surprised seeing the Destroyer as the most popular. Destroyer/Striker that is.
