90% of the time I follow this routine with the best Engineer in the game:

1. If it's availble, run to the ladder to remove this horrible thing from my Vol-back
2. Set up the Reckon Mine in a predicted spawn
3. Run away and wait for the wave to start.

BUT!

90% of the times I see a jolly companion running to the mine I set up, preventing the enemies from appearing on it.



Now I'm not the one who is easily disturbed. I know the art of trolling fellow players, and I'm not complaining when I'm being trolled myself.

But this... this is something I just can't stand. It's like a trigger. I waited half a year for this mine to set up, I could already see those poor bastards being lit by it, staggered by proxy and finally dying in a Reckon Mine blast, but nope. Wait another half a year and a long-ass cooldown, the randomly spotted partner says without words. And when you'll eventually have that other mine working near the enemies, just one or two will remain.

What about you? Do you have something that immediately ruins your mood in this game (regarding player behaviour, not the game mechanics)?

I love The Incredibles.

Juggs walking in front of me while I'm sniping tends to make me a little angry.
Oh and people who go down during wave one.

Needs moar Elastigirl.

People running into spawn points where I just laid a mine really puts me off the vol engineer

[StoxRegalia]

When someone runs strait for the LZ on extraction creating a wall of enemies between me and extraction. I'm somehow always the one that gets screwed over.

One of that things that bothers me are players spamming overload on armored enemies like crazy if I'm playing a biotic combo class with a cooldown on par of my team mates.

I don't mind them spamming it on shielded enemies/boss with shields but against pure armor, like a brute? It makes me

Also players nuking spawn to speed up the game. To me, it kills the fun.

Detonating Recon Mine?
You're doing it wrong.

Yes, I detonate the mine when I know it will kill remaining enemies. First I soften them up with Proxies and FEs.

I'm pretty sure I'm doing it right.

That`s why Drell Assassin is better for recon mine..
By the time you detonate first one, second one is ready to be placed again.

Ha! My co-workers are wondering why I just snorted my coffee. Thanks for that image.

Players sprinting off to stand "where the enemies are" is near the top of my list for sure.

Another one is the PuGger who actually does pick me up (Thank you, lil' PuGger), and then sprints off ignoring the husk waiting to hump me before I actually finish standing up. Even their Avenger I could've saved me that...experience.

You were going to detonate the recon mine in my face anyway, so I'm just cutting to the chase.

Lol good one, immediately blind them with the recon-smoke!

People who **** up the spawns at the start of a wave - during the wave, eh, it happens. But at the start? Sort your **** out.

[MzAdventure]

In general, I find it frustrating to play with a teammate who has a different approach to pre-wave positioning and screws up my favorite spawn points, so has to be extra-special suffering for your mighty volus, OP!

Silly OP, everyone knows stupid people are attracted to shiny things.

This happens to me so much... I go down (most likely because I tried to revive someone) and they a. either run off and let me lie there, b. immediately try to revive me and die on top of me or c. stealth and revive me right next to a sync kill unit.
I don't even expect them to kill everything, but they could at least stagger the enemies...

All the possible ways to troll someone ingame annoy me... it's funny for a minute and if there's no risk of wiping... but if someone does it through all 11 waves, then it stops being fun and prompts me to leave... usually after aggro-ing as many enemies as possible, leading those to them and closing the game with alt+F4. At that point it doesn't even matter if they were doing it intentionally or not, to me it's griefing and ruins my fun.

[DragonRacer]

Having a "helpful" PUG revive me when a sync kill unit is camping my body, so I revive straight into instant, wave-ending death (after which point the rest of the PUGs generally find a way to die horribly and the whole mission fails) rather than either missiling the critter or leading it away so I can pick myself back up in relative safety.

Stop. Pls.

I know the solution to that is to just never die, ever, but I'm not that good yet.

[Beerfish]

Is someone talking? Am I hearing a voice? Oh, way down there, a Volus. A Volus complaining about something? No! I refuse to believe it! Stupid little muffin heads, shield recharge player lock spammers. It's about winning the day and saving the galaxy and all those little ammonia breathing farts can do is talk about getting credits. Poofters.

PUGs refusing to use medigel is my biggest petpeeve. USE SOME FREAKING GEL YOU GUYS. I shouldn't be risking my life every wave trying to save your skin. Also, please do the objectives and support players who are doing them. And if we're play gold or higher, do NOT screw up the spawn points, please.

The ones that get me are the ones who don't missle, if there is cluster of banshees and brutes standing over my body use a missle. That's what they are for.

[doozerdude]

Why bother with recon mine? Dark Sphere says hi.

[k1ngl1ves]

Best Engineer in the game?!!!

No.

Paladin is the best. No contest...
