That is the problem with Platinum. Moving, big, fat and stupid bullet sponges. They spawn->you kill them in a blink of eye->Repeat. Overrun? Don't make me laugh, how can they overrun me when I kill them in seconds?

I guess I don't understand how anything that dies that quick can be called a bullet sponge.  Initially this post implied you hated platinum because there were too many targets that took too long to kill.  So you're complaining they die in the blink of an eye?  :/  I'm getting a little confused.  Do targets die slower on gold?  Are there no phantoms, rocket troopers, engineers, guardians, dragoons, hunters, captains, cannibals, etc on platinum?  Last time I checked there was no shortage of anything but cannibals on platinum.

As a volus sentinel

I frequently play drunk in the evenings, but as a volus vanguard.

The problem with Platinum is they crammed on the bosses into one place, the whole match is made up almost nothing but Phantom, Banshee, Dragoon and anything that rush you. And the most important thing why I hate Platinum is it made you play Krogans like little Pyjaks.

I'm with you, I'm not even sure what this thread is whining like a quarian with a suit puncture about at the moment.

Edit: the only bosses complaint is flat out not true and if you want everything to curl up and die for you you should be playing gold or under, platinum is for a challenge...

*Sigh, these whinny Pyjaks*

The basic Krogan Sentinel is one of my favorite classes. If you ignore Incinerate, and never detonate your shields, you don't have to worry about cooldown and can take whatever weapons, and they're really hard to kill. Unfortunately, I don't find them viable on Platinum due to a lack of dodge. They're only slightly thicker tissue paper then.

They are viable in Platinum as grenade spammer and moderate weapon platform. And that why I hate it. Krogan is supposed charge and kill ****s. Not hiding behind soft cover spamming grenade and weapons.

When you were talking about too many boss bullet sponges I was about to compare Gow2/3 Horde mode, then I realised that ME3MP bullet sponges die ridiculously fast when equipped correctly. 
Those stupid Boomers in Gow2/3 Horde do really soak up bullet fire from 5 Lancers at once, which is exhausting.
Unless you have super reload or instagib melee.

I can see OPs point if he likes to play Krogans cause I'm terrible with them they are like turds with legs and i can see that I definitely wouldn't be good with them on plat, but I play a wide variety of other kits on platinum and still have fun. Platinum just complements some playstyles more than others if you like to snipe then you don't really have to change anything, if you're like me and the midrange game is your thing then minor adjustments are required and if you're into meleeing or being the fury type that teleports into the middle of a spawn to deal death then yeah you probably can't have the same type of success on platinum than you could on gold. The only other way I find platinum limiting is trying to find a game that isn't on giant or rio.. which I don't mind those maps its just variety is nice and people now have a mindset that those maps are easier to play than others which just isn't true.

[1Mrs0019]

Krogan melee work just fine on platinum. If you're having trouble pulling it off I think you need more practice.

That's my problem. I like to go hardcore berserker with them, which is godlike on bronze/silver. Being slightly more careful it can work on gold, especially against Geth with no sync-kills.

You must be really good at soloing Plat with Krogan.

If you've been reading my posts I used the words focus fire which means teamwork. Maybe the reason you're dying is you're running into bad situations as a melee?  Just because you run melee build doesn't mean you have to force it into bad situations.

No I dont put point in melee for Krogan in Plat because it is ineffective. Krogan melee is only good for stagger and ragdoll shieldless enemies.

You need to witness Cowwy's Platinum Krosent.

Claymoar/Lift Grenade all the things & never die.

Tankiness + Strongest raw damage grenades + Great melee makes for an amazing kit.

I have yet to find a kit I can't play in Plat...

[sirus1988]

Rarely do I ever play platinum. I only played it a few times (a couple when it was first introduced and during the last operation). I am happily content with silver and gold runs.

[BattleCop88]

Platinum turns meh into fail, good into meh, and everything else will get unnecessary nerf requests by those masochists seeking 'challenge'. If you have any doubts about how your build will do, you will probably fail.

[FateNeverEnds]

So you hate platinum and have more fun in gold. And then you reason you should come to the BSN and rant about how much you dislike it instead of just... playing gold. There are people who enjoy the challenge, and yes it was poorly designed as it rendered nearly useless many kits but it was also a nice gesture from the devs to give hardcore players a reason to keep playing.

I for one here do find it real fun and a must when playing with friends that are so good they make gold feel like bronze. Also, whining about this now is just pointless so far in the game's life-span.

tl;dr: if you don't like it don't play it, there are people who enjoy it and there is no point in complaining now, it's over, move on with your life.

[FataliTensei]

I despise platinum, it's horribly designed and unbalanced.
