Relaxed ...
Standard-Batguard with incendiary mattock... We had some of those random gold games where all pretty much know what to do and you play mostly for yourself except for the objective-waves. But strangely enough, there was always someone around when sb else gets killed. Batguard didn't want to die though except for one occasion where one poor banshee was so desperately in need of love that I had to let her hug me from behind.
I was in that match. I even politely asked him not to yell. You were rolling Volus and I was with my trusty QFI. Nickname was something like JuliusVerse or JuliusVeil if i recall correctly. Sorry for leaving, but I left because it could switch to my host (and every game I tried to host yesterday resulted in losing connection) and I was extremely pissed about him yelling and being a little whiny b1tch.
No worries. That level of idiocy doesn't truly make me mad. Annoying sure, and it triggers my "be a masshole" reflex, but in the end the worst I'm going to do about it is share on BSN. Which, to be honest, we all know posting it to BSN is pretty irrelevant. In a few days that post and this one will be forgotten completely I imagine.
And no worries about leaving either. I've met a lot of people that have problems with host transfer screwing up their games, so they just started leaving in stead. (A lot of the time in the past it screwed with my games too, I'm not even sure why I bother to stick around when it happens.)
Edit: Annnnddd my brain just went to a funny place.
The sentence "You were rolling volus and I was with my trusty QFI." makes it sound like some kind of missed connection post.
Almost like a follow up line should be "If interested meet me for coffee in Glacier," or some such 
WOOT WOOT
Don't blame me! If there was an off topic section, it wouldn't have been an issue.

Actually, I would prefer Jade. It has much better view. Also, coffee boxes on Jade drop two coffees per box while on Glacier you only get one 
On topic:
I carried and I liked it, even tho it was on Rio and against Collectors and game lasted for 30mins. One pug was Asari Vanguard equipped with Krsyae and Striker + Armor Piercing II, other PUG was doing rather fine. From the start I knew it is going to be a long round after they started drooping like crazy on right balcony. Spawn nuked sh1t out of W8 and W9 but still had to solo good chunk of those waves. Trouble is I was with my Shadow and Wraith (now, Wraith is just because I have to have something to attach my omniblade on it). Wraith does not hit hard against Collectors without shotgun amps. So, killing Praetorians without eating two ammo packs was torture.
After cleaning my laptop from dust, reinstalling drivers, overclocking my poor 640M, putting laptop on cooling pad, manually activating laptops vent to the max, I was finally able to get it:
*Name said it all*
Started out as a gold duo collectors/white... me novaguard and a fury. Thought it would be easy enough. It wasn't. Collectors never is somehow. *sigh* But we managed for a while. Then on wave 5 a pug who had previously dropped out of my lobby by the name of "xbox killer kid" joined.
I just KNEW that he'd be clueless. With some names you just know, right? Also, almost no experience points. But I thought, hey, he's playing a Drell Adept, how bad can it be? Just prime me at least.
Yeahhh...
He did no such thing. I don't think he knew how biotic explosions work. Kept wandering off and dying nonstop. And I even got myself killed trying to revive him. Grrrr. But we carried him for a while. Wave 9, a Volus joined. Then unfortunately we got the hack on the exposed open area at the bottom... Never seen so many praetorians, I swear. Them beams... it was ugly.
The clueless Drell decided not to help and got himself killed out there. Me, never learning either, rushed to revive him. He bled out. I got downed. Wasted medigel.
In the meantime the pug I had started out with either left in frustration or got disconnected. So it was the Volus and me, hack halfway done after about 4 missiles...
Then I'm out of medigel and get stomped instantly. Volus is alone. Goes down several times. Bravely revives himself. Leaves the hack for a while comes back. Goes down, gets up again. Hack completed. Goes down a second later, bleeds out.
We got the money at least thanks to that guy. Sent him a thank you message.
Fu*king hate Collectors. And idiots joining gold matches.
(On the funny side, the ten year old kid with the mike from last night I kicked from platinum because he was like N7 80 or something, basically no experience points and sporting an AR and shotgun on an Adept, I met again in a platinum lobby tonight. And it all went well. Huh.)
Reading frickin Rainbow..............
I guess you can learn something new every day.........I got cornered by 2 phantoms...they both slashed my justicar at the same time...I ops packed it before getting skewered by 1 of em.......but guess what happened the second I popped back up?
Kaboom!
I decided to look into MP on PC today. It really took super long to get games in and the store took its sweet time to give me my jumbo pack. While on that note, the entire game seemed to take a super long time to start up. "Connecting to EA Server" message was on there for a loooooooooooooong while.
I brought my Quarian Female Infiltrator and abused those sticky grenades. My first match resulted in a dc, and then the game crashed repeatedly when I went to multiplayer menu. The next two golds were in a lobby hosted by a possible(?) BSNer, GellarStellar. If you are, awesome matches! Another player, noirmode, was also there. Really great job there. Most important thing was to have fun with this match even if I'm a pathetic player. 
In any case...
On a side note, I also used the QFI and the SI on the Wii U. 1 gold match and 1 platinum. Both were excellent!
nintendowarrior= MIGHTY PUG
nintendowarrior= MIGHTY PUG
but guess what happened the second I popped back up?
You got cocky and went after em and deserved everything you got?
Oh, nope. Wait. That's me on my paladin. Every time they crack my shield I get irked. Honestly think you should get 45° frontal protection from that if you have your shield planted. =/
#stillnotbuttsoreaboutitnoreally=)
and it triggers my "be a masshole" reflex
One day in I'm going to use that. So I liked it in advance, cause I might have forgotten who gets the credit by then.
I can't even think of a word to sum up my last PUG. But basically, I joined a random bronze match to get some extractions with my Asari Adept, and it put me on Vancouver/Collectors. Not a problem, right?
Turns out all the people I was playing with had no sense of teamwork and liked running off on their own, getting killed, and never reviving anyone or using gel. I would've thought they were just newbies, but I saw how many points each of them had and they all had too much experience to be that terrible. I had to make the decision early on in the match to just ignore them and only go for revives if they were really close by. Which they almost never were. Except when they were right out in the open.
I ended up having to use my missiles to complete objectives, save myself from being pinned down by scions, and clear the LZ (which they were all camping in, of course) in the last ten seconds.
Adventures of Fire Support Volus at Platinum. Teammates - Juggernaut/Reegar, Shadow/BW and an underleveled TSent/Harrier who joined at Wave 3.
Collectors, Reactor.
I played with Roger_Wilco_ua earlier. That's when I got disconnected. 
Strange
My last pug yesterday (Reactor as Collector Adept) didn't feel right at all. Like something was very off throughout that whole match, like my enemy placement awareness wasn't working. I also had a suicidal pug who would always rush wave start spawns, get killed, then stomped. That part was kind of a highlight because it was so surreal. Some pugs never learn to not touch the electrocuted cheese.
Weekend warriors
At least it's what it looked like during the few matches I played: almost all players sporting low N7/CPs, unmaxed rares and gear. I think it's great that this game still pulls in people, and that there are still newcomers getting into gold 
and I won't mind the longer match times, the occasional late-wave clutch, and the greater need for consumables! (maxed manifest life, right? )
However, it does bother me when people rage-quit midway through the match 
I am sorry you got synced/downed where I couldn't get to you in time, but quitting now only makes the rest of the match that much harder for everyone else. If your game time and/or patience are so limited that you can't stand spectating for a few minutes while I/we clear the rest of the wave, perhaps you should consider playing silver instead?
Thanks to all the others, who have valiantly fought the overwhelming hordes of enemies, and pushed through the chaotic, long games until (mostly) extraction. I hope you had fun, I know I did!
WOOT WOOT
Agreed. Unstoppable.
Cowardice:
Quick match gold, get in lobby, not GIP, which will make stick around no matter how s***ty it looks. Preset Jade Cerberus Gold. Im switching weapons on DrellDept and that is when I assume the host ninjaed it to silver. I'm so unaware, that I don't realize it until wave 2 ends in about 15 seconds. I was pissed. Needless to say, the DrellDept with Venom X and Warp IV on a silver is freaking laughable. And of course I basically did wave 10 hack by my lonesome as the noobs were nuking wave 10 and of course about 6 missiles fly at the beginning of Extraction, and I get 3 spawns dropped on top of me and burn 2 medis in lolsilver.
I hope you spammed venom and clusters at any survivors at the end of extraction.

Campfire-fail:
Yrael's experiences remind me of my own the other day, while doing Asari Vanguard extractions. Joined GiP in Reactor Hazard Collectors, with some sort of a trio: at least 2 were hanging exclusively in the back behind Reactor, after I assume they'd read some manual on where to camp, and repeatedly enjoying the reactor campfire as much as possible (I kid you not, it was nonstop). I never saw the third person, as their invisible body was lying dead, or dying, in the LZ but he did show in kill feed, so was contributing.
I arrived just as w3 devices had started, of which I did 3 and waited for them to do the last one... timer going down, so I say on the mic that one of them do it, I've already done the 3 others. Now obvious scorewhåres, they left it to the last moment to do it. Ok then.
Didn't see them using medigels, they revived each other though, and I revived one of them. Same repeats wave after wave. They camp, and if they die, they bleed out if I can't get to them or their group-revival fails. No problem, can handle it easily.
W6 escort, I run to start it up, follow the ball for a while, nobody joins me. I nicely point out the escort, then start quoting the drone about needing additional teammates, while killing things on escort path. Nobody arrives, they just want to score on the exact opposite side of the map. I step out of the escort, saying that I'm not doing this one alone, too, and if they want the mission done, get here, I'll finish it with them. After voiceover guy getting repeatedly worried over drone not moving alone for ages, then at the last minute, they run to the ball, and we finish it off.
Same ensues, I go my merry way killing things, and do most of w10 targets alone, the invisidude dies early but the others actually moved from their spot to kill the last mook that I decided to leave for them. They immediately go back to their reactor scorchio, and both get killed near it. Nobody gels. They bleed out, so I asked if the last mission wave wasn't worth medigelling for them, then walk over to the nearest scion to hug him, only saying a sad-trombone 'Awwwww' as I let the scion kill me because I'm a mean biatch like that.
Had it been any other scenario, them actually trying to participate, or gel, I'd have been happy to carry and avoid fission mailed. Masshole in me was brought out by others not giving a fåck about anything else but their scorewhåring - and as it turns out, they failed even in that.
I was in that match. I even politely asked him not to yell. You were rolling Volus and I was with my trusty QFI. Nickname was something like JuliusVerse or JuliusVeil if i recall correctly. Sorry for leaving, but I left because it could switch to my host (and every game I tried to host yesterday resulted in losing connection) and I was extremely pissed about him yelling and being a little whiny b1tch.
JulianVerse? I run into him all the time. If I'm not mistaken, last time I met him he went on a multi-wave tantrum and then rage-quit because a Juggernaut used hex shield in front of him. While he was using a Javelin... But first he waited until the Jug and I had 2-man escorted (on a 4 man team) the drone all the way across Rio before shouting "Screw you!" and quitting, forcing us to re-do the escort because he was the host.

Wow, this guy make me sound like i fart rainbows and sunshine.
Sheesh.
