At least do it during regular waves or AFTER objective is done to clear and speed up the game.
Why do you idiots nuke on wave 11? (you know who you are) The exraction will not go any faster. You just make enemies spawn near other teamates. 2 Dragoons and 4 Phantoms in a spawn equals instant death to whoever turns the corner.
There were plenty of juicy spawns before - no rockets. There were clusterf**cks during hacks and escorts - no rockets. Extraction wave - multi-rockets into every spawn.
The only time rockets are allowed in my book is to clear the LZ when there's 10 seconds left. If you're doing it to boost up your score - well, you're a sad sad person and you look like an idiot who deserves to be booted out after the match.
If you're going to nuke spawns...

i don't even like nuking spawns waves 5/8/9 - it really doesn't cut down the time at all, it's a stupid argument. The respawning is much worse, especially with pugs. If you want to actually speed up a game, missile wave 10 once the credits have rolled.

Well that's the point. They don't nuke em during regular waves. Wave 5 - there's like 2 Banshees, 2 Brutes and 2 Ravagers clustered - no rockets.
Wave 11 - oh look 3 Marauders and 3 Husks - rocket. Rocket again. And AGAIN.

Marauders totally deserve a rocket, maybe not a single one

LOL. It does cut the time. 2 good rockets during waves 5/7/8/9 and half the spawn budget is gone.

TBF, 3 marauders are much, MUCH more dangerous than 2 ravagers, 2 brutes, and 2 banshees. especially for squishier classes.

Agreed. But not on extraction wave. At least not at the beginning of it. Nuke it at LZ if you're getting overwhelmed.

2 missiles? yes. 1 does not touch the time at all, though, and no one ever uses 2.

Sure, but why do it when there's still 2 muinutes till dust off? And multiple times?

I do. When I'm pissed and if I had to solo 2 waves before.

i never do when i've had to solo 2 waves, because i'm saving my missiles for the last 2 banshees of the wave. i find that's much more likely to keep the time down than respawning the enemies behind randoms with no situational awareness.

I think your asking the wrong question. It`s not "why?", it`s "Why not you @#$%$#@ piece of $!@# Marauder?!"
And they USUALLY respawn elsewhere, which is a brief reprieve.....................
LOL, Who am I kidding, They`ll respawn in the exact same place.
ok, you`ve got a point.
Marauders still totally deserve a rocket though.

If you wanna score**** - go ahead and nuke that **** during normal waves for all I care. Faster game - faster credits.
It's really ridicilous when you have to solo all waves from 7 to 10 and no one ever uses a missile and bleedout all over the place. And the during EX wave you get yourself a 4th of July. WTF?

I always saw that as a sort of celebration round.
Time to display the fireworks; no worries, enjoy being able to do whatever you like.
I never saw it as a points thing. One of my friends said "Ok guys it's wave 11 so If you got 'em spend 'em" He specifically mentioned it was because simply that you could.
...I saw it as a fun thing. Sort of like Christmas. Blowing all your money before the end of the year for a good time before it was over. (I`m normally on the top anyway. I`m not blowing my rockets to stay on top, that`s mental. being on top isn`t even important. '-' )
Now that I'm aware (some) people think poorly of this, I suppose I just wont have celebration/firework moments. No one really talks on mic much, so I didn't have any reason to think it was taboo. *shrug* (not that I do it all the time. But In the cases that I did ^)

At least it's funny.
Being a cheap-ass during the game and then blowing 6 missiles during extraction is not.

Nuking the first spawn on wave 11 does annoy me, and I have plenty of friends who do it (rethinks friend list), but it's usually a lot worse when a pug does it. Have a couple of missiles to burn? Kite them until its closer to extraction time and have at it. At least that would be helpful rather than unhelpfully nuking as soon as mission commander tells us da choppah will be there in 2 minutes.
