I also like to see myself on top of the scoreboard like any normal competitive person would, what is wrong with that also. You are hypocrites if you say my tactics are bad.

Well at least this one admits it loud and proud that they are scorewh0res, so eh, more power to them.

Wow this thread. Congrats on the solo FTL.

I would drop my tailgate and share the keg and popcorn I brought, but Air Quotes' avatar is looking at me funny.

Hmm... I decided to elaborate. 

It makes sense not to let this drift into a place where people are feeling like their hackles are up. I know I had mine up, earlier, and that paints posts in a bad light. A light they don't necessarily deserve. I jumped at the phrasing, and I'll back off from that, and just say what I mean to say, instead of being obnoxious (which I will admit I was being.)

If it bothers anyone that I do this, I can live with it:

I conserve rockets compulsively. I don't think it makes me a bad player. It lowers my score, considerably, and it adds time to my games, but it improves the odds of extraction. I have them ready if I have to solo, because I cannot solo Gold yet, and clutching is a questionable proposition without rockets, for me. If I have to clutch several times, I will need all those rockets.

I also compulsively rocket enemies when they go to synch kill my teammates. Even if it usually only comes up once in a game, I conserve them just in case. I'd rather use them preserving all 4 players in emergencies than speeding up the game.

I am not such a good player that I can afford to use 6 rockets every game. I started a game today with 4 of my potential 6 rockets. And I used them all. After that game I literally had 0. I don't have a maxed manifest, and I tend to be critically short of rockets and Ops Packs. (Medigel, too, even, these days.)

I speak only for myself, but there are a handful of other players who are better than I am, who also tend to have most of their rockets at the end of the game. We may be the minority, but we see them as an item to be used in emergencies.

And sometimes, emergencies happen during extraction. In fact, because your credit total now includes that Wave, players who don't have maxed manifests have a very legitimite reason to conserve rockets for extraction. Clearing a  path is occasionally necessary for some players.

And every now and then, when I have lots of rockets to spare, and I didn't need any before extraction, I'll go on a rampage. Just for fun, and not because I give a crap about whether I top the scoreboard. And it doesn't hurt anyone when I do that.

Which is way off topic, but I didn't want there to be any misunderstandings. Especially with someone whose efforts I admired during Lodestar.

(I have no opinion on the thread's topic, to be honest. I don't know enough about the Krolord or the players involved, and I'm on Xbox, anyway.)

This is my 28th Platinum Solo and I stopped sharing my Solo experiences after my 10th just to avoid bul**** like some of the people in the thread are saying.

Really, the only reason this thing is even 6 pages is because of the drama with Link.

Look at how the other Krolord thread turned out. You can't expect to post this here, at this time, and not expect stupid drama.

For the record I have no problem with killing stuff on wave 11 for scorewhoring, but missiles to spawns is a bad idea to me unless I'm <level 20, because it tends to force respawns in really bad positions.

I expected stupid drama that is why I posted it. I was in the mood for some drama today. As long as 1 person extracts it counts as an extraction for the whole team. Full extraction is a bonus, when any Lone Survivor is all that is required for challenges.

Something is fishy with this solo.

Lone Survivor may be all that's need for challenges, but I prefer keeping as many alive as possible (within reason). It doesn't mean anything the same way you missiling to top score means nothing. Different perspectives.

To those of us without maxed manifests, extraction is also some bonus credits.  Intentionally getting your teammates killed on extraction is a dick move.

I used to think just like you, always going for Full Extraction or die trying, that is until they introduced the challenge point system. Now I just try to kill as many things on Wave 11 to boost my game score and challenge points not even caring to extract as long as someone else extracts it is OK with me. If I feel they cannot extract without my help I go and help them to make sure we get the extraction.

Wave 1-10 I play for the team, Wave 11 I play for myself.

What challenge points are you getting out of nuking on wave 11, besides points earned for Spectre challenge? Challenge points for powers and weapons only comes from the damage dealt with them, not points per kill, so shooting something with a gun or power for a bit and then nuking it isn't contributing much.

Mainly for Cerberus, Reaper, Geth, Collector Masterys which I have done x13, x14, x12, x12 respectively.

You wont last 10 minutes in my 120 fps Collector and Geth Lobbies. They are more harder than your average Platinum games. Dont trust me, just ask some BSNers who have been humbled by the difficulty of it.

Everyone knows nuking extraction makes the timer go faster.

Check my Build for why no melee kills and I usually like to burn enemies from behind rather than the front.

good work FLT
besides you need hit twice the phantoms for kill

the first hit stun, the second kill.

or you can OHK the phantoms if you previous hit with your weapon

is because the shield gate.

after all i see some Q.Q

You should feel bad for making all the legit PC players on here look like cheating scum. You've literally tainted dozens if not hundreds of good people with your cheating shenanighans.

Nothing you say will ever restore the glory you once held. You literally are the Lance Armstrong of ME3.

I could not have put it better myself.

And FTL, don't play us for fools. We all know what's going on here.

You are a fool to think this is anything but a legit Platinum Solo. I guess you can have your doubts, that is understandable considering all that has transpired in the last week or so but I have never modified any game files to gain an unfair advantage over the enemy. Hell this game is too easy and needs to be harder not easier for me to enjoy it even more.

Play with a 120 FPS host who lives on the other side of the world.
