For reals or are you just joking around

For reals, cannot remember how to play properly.

Had to rely on crutch class to even finish a gold.

Didn't extract. I was at the LZ and when the timer hits zero I heavy melee. I always heavy melee when a match ends. My Fury teleports outside of the LZ and the shuttle leaves me behind Platoon-style. The worst part is, I swear the timer stopped counting at zero and resumed after I was out of the LZ. Also I was gunned down like a dog, as the others celebrated their delicious victory.

 

...At least i lived up to my name... 

 

I think this will be my favourite running gag here.

I forgot how to play, who has the best backpacks on PC?

I'm not the best but I don't complain about carrying. I will complain about lag non stop though.

Flamerless GT Javelin Gold Run.

 

Host dropped out at Wave 2 or 3 for some supernatural reason, leaving me, a melee puggernaut and a destroyer with a locust. It was effectively a solo.

Oh, you are here, as me and Silvershroud just played a glacier hazard reapers on your host. So, why did you nuke them all things on wave 5?

Twas 5:30am and I didn't want to utterly capitulate the round.

Yeah I stopped following threads I've created ages ago, used to own a group here a few years back, friends intentionally spammed the place with nonsense when I told em I'll be offline for a few days. My poor inbox was thoroughly violated, I just gave up looking through all the posts after that happened a few times. Wonderful trolls the lot of em.

See yesterday I got kicked after a platinum game.

Condor/Collectors, one lvl 17 Cabal, one lvl 14 Volus something, both experienced with heavy equipement and weaponry.

I was with my lvl 20 TGI so I didn't even blink when I saw it was Condor.

 

I understand the frustration you must have felt after reading the whole sorry tale. It may be worth remembering that some players really, really hate playing with Infiltrators, and the TGI in particular. Aggro dump and grenade stealing is real, and despite everything you've described, they may simply have decided they weren't 'putting up with that crap', as they possibly perceived it. If it's a Mission Successful, most people don't really mind, but Mission Failed? TGI's fault, without question. Not my mindset, but it's definitely a commonly held pug view.

Maybe we should start a "Blame the BSNer" thread, everytime a BSNer gets kicked from a lobby post match, we can speculate what exactly they were blamed for? Failed Mission? Definitely the BSNers fault, Everybody knows - BSNers have big backpacks. Mission Successful? Definitely the BSNers fault. Backpack was comfortable.

 

As a TGI, I really don't use many grenades, I personally really dislike the Stim Pack and Repair Matrix powers, if I screw up - I deserve to die, and probably deserve a lost medigel too. And with 3 non-infiltrators, aggro dump isn't really noticable UNLESS it is deliberate (kite enemy to player, cloak, run).

 

I try not to think about what PUGs must be thinking though, usually I just end up with "hurr durr shooty durr die hurh hurh".

Let me answer with another tale 

Spoiler

Reading back, I did make it sound like what was done to me was outrageous and I was very frustrated.

I'm afraid to admit that tis' mostly theatrics, it did slightly offend me for a second, but it was more of a "...what just happened ?" moment.

Game was done, mission successful, I moved on quite swiftly.

 

You know our PC kingdom is an extremely lonely one, there's very little communication and it's not easy to tell what's going on in the mind of your teammates.

I can spend weeks playing MP without hearing a single word from anyone.

Last time someone used a mic, it startled me. 

I put my headphones off, checked to see if anyone was behind me before realizing it was coming from the game.

 

Indeed, I realize that some people kick vote other players just because they have a specific kit,

I think that's a bit much, I like to give strangers a chance, and I'm not gonna kick someone unless I really think

he is way out of his league and he will drag the whole team down.

 

You're right about infiltrators, TGI, and I agree. 

I also know it can be a harsh experience when you're a low health kit and everyone else is INF, good luck !

I can understand how some people might get annoyed by the fact that a player has a specific kit.

I still don't think it's worst kicking over but that's just me. I didn't enjoy the AIU platinum golden age for instance (seems to have died down a bit), 

but I'm sure as hell not gonna kick a player for it, even if he's not a team player, scorewhores during missions and nuke spawn on wave 11.

As long as you're not clearly preventing the team from succeeding, then do your worst buddy, I will still have my fun.

 

In my opinion, other player's behaviour shouldn't have too much of an impact on your appreciation of the game.

I guess every one has its own limit, mine is pretty wide, I must have some turian blood in me...

As you said, others have different mindsets, not much you can do about that.

 

It's just that in this specific game, I don't know that the points you've made really apply.

Volus, good cabal and I were in the lobby for a couple of minutes.

So everyone knew what team they were going with, one of them changed his status to "ready" and the 3 of us jumped in.

I don't think they suffered from aggro considering the death toll and how smoothly the game went.

Good cabal and volus shared the ammo box near the LZ and I didn't go near it.

 

Besides, the one to follow the kick vote was the newbie cabal, can't help but thik he did so because he is a sheep and

he didn't have any actual reason. 

 

Or maybe he DID need to blame someone for his dreadful experience and the kickvote provided that for him.

In this scenario, had I been the one to kick vote the volus, he would have followed.

Or maybe I thought it was a smooth game but the volus had a totally different experience and was raging at me the whole time.(that'd be fun)

Or maybe you're right and they had to 'put up with a lot of crap'

AAAaaaaaahhhh, too...much...thinking....need...to....REBOOT SYSTEM.......loading...................................................................................................

 

Anyways, that's just pug-psyche mechanics, they are the most complex and I don't mind not having all the answers, makes things more interesting.

On the first part, QFMFT. On the second, I'm sure you're probably right, and that is usually the case in my experience. As you've seen, you can drive yourself a bit crazy trying to work out what's going on in other players' minds, especially with no form of communication. Arkhne's probably right - who cares what pugs think? 

 

You have to do something pretty obviously stupid or annoying to make me leave a lobby, before or after a game, and the mentality I was describing couldn't be further from my own usual take on things. It's never nice being kicked, so it's pretty rare for me to do it. Except where BSN scrubs are concerned, obviously. 

[SassaMFG]

No words can describe those awful high CP pugs who decided to camp near Dextro machine on London...

[Silvershroud]

WTF?!

 

I literally couldn't poke my head out of cover without dying instantly.  I rage quit on wave 3 after around 16 deaths by that point.  I couldn't even use biotic charge.  I was dead by the time I reached the target every single time.

 

Edit: OK, seriously, WTF?!?!?!

 

I tried another match with my Krentinel this time.  Cyclonic IV.  Couldn't even run 20 feet to melee a lone Centurion.  It killed me all by itself before I got there!

This is why you should use adrenaline and power amps, Cyclonics confirmed bugged. Illumanti confirmed

Sometimes it might happen off host if the host has high refresh rate like 90 or 120. I tried 90 on host, it is not playable for me. The enemies look at you and you are dead.

 

But today in pug, I had the opposite. I'm not sure if it was a glitch or hack and IMO, it were hack with instant shield regeneration. Also, ammo boxes on Condor gave 9 grenades each time every time with almost no cooldown. The host was L0unny and it would have been 10 WS but I decided to check if I can actually die. Indeed, it was possible if standing in the open. Otherwise, it was a nice smooth game.

[LightRobot]

Had some great runs with pug today : 5 gold matches, all between 15 and 18:45 minutes, which is probably a first for me as far as pug goes.

Didn't keep exact same team for all the matches but I played with :

 

- one Vormav

 

- one Airshipper

 

- one VegardVI

 

Anyone know them ? They BSN ?

I believe you got trolled by host playing the game on 120 or 240Hz monitor. Combine very high fps with slightly higher ping 150ish ms+ and host can recreate the scenario you described. Even a Krogan Warlord with full fitness spec/gear wont be able to survive much longer in the open

Vormav posts here.

Don't know about VegardVI, but I did play a few matches with them lately, and they are a really good player and teammate. They used the console to type some text too, so I assume they at least know about this place.

Agreed, it's always a good surprise to have when playing random pug ! I now have Airshipper on friendlist, will try to track the rest of them down.

Thanks for the tip.

Today has been a total waste of time.

 

No idea how many games I've attempted to play today.

20.

30.

40?

 

Managed to finish about 2.

 

I really am going to have to seriously consider hosting.

Me and this lil suit rat engineer managed to carry this PPR N7 Destroyer all the way through Reapers on Condor (btw that map is awful) and yeah, we pretty much tag teamed and rekt teh reaperz. Unfortunately we died at the end cause unlike the Destroyer we were actually trying to kill things, oh well.

 

The fleet has gained a bit of my respect. :')

I've been getting carried hard on PC as I'm still trying to get used to the controls, fps/difficulty increase (ravagers are freaking on point), and a rather minimal manifest. I haven't been kicked yet so I'm pretty grateful that players are keeping me around so far. It's a humbling experience to say the least.

 

Meanwhile on console, a lvl 1 N7 1 dropped into the lobby but afk'd out on the first wave. Nice to know that there's still new players interested in MP though.
