Outplayed

 

saw a pug go in for the extraction spawn nuke, then this solitary line appeared in the killfeed

 

Pug [Missile Launcher] Swarmer

Dull.

 

Reactor/Collectors/gold. I hardly had to try because everyone was too good for it to matter. Ended up in 3rd with about 88k, which would be disappointing if not for the fact that some tool hugely outscored everyone and just wiped the floor with the enemies.

Yesterday there were two games on some French host running Mgamerz' insanity zombie/husk horde mod with hastened abominations, primes on steroids, buffed scions, and jumpy banshees. It is more like platinum with mixup of bosses on various waves, 100+ enemies per wave and about 15-20 enemies on the field at the same time. First game was set to UUG and we ended up on London. It went reasonably well with the host playing huntress and promptly reviving everyone but we wiped on wave 9. I had to dust off trusty QME with power amp IV and asked to set the second game to some reasonable map. The host picked up White and it went much better despite two players dropping out around wave 6 or 7 and some other people joining. I got downed while running to EZ during extraction wave and did not extract but the host managed to extract. That went very well for a random game despite having quite a bit of lag and the host was also very happy. I've played this and similar mods a few times previously and I don't think there was an extraction in a pug.

Fail.

 

I mean, we did extract, but in the meantime everyone died about a dozen times. It was Ghost/Collectors/gold and the team was just doing surprisingly poorly. At one point we were all playing musical revives in that middle structure (on like wave 7 or 8, I think), and I just got fed up, gelled, and rage-nuked everything on screen so we could move on with our lives.

 

The previous match in that lobby was pretty bad too. I have no idea why I kept dying all over the place--I wasn't aware of any lag, but who knows--but it didn't really make sense. The pugs were good at being on hand for revives, which kind of made up for the complete lack of teamwork otherwise, but...

[Ashevajak]

'Splosions.

Between my Scorpion (incendiary ammo) Quarksman, the AIU, the Geth Engineer and the Krogan with the big damn hammer, on Hazard Glacier, there was a lot of stuff going on, visually and aurally speaking.

[yrael]

This merits two words: **** pugs.

 

I had to do all the objectives on my own. As a volus. On Ghost Hazard. With minimal cover from my "team."

 

I guess the bright side is that whenever I went down, I got an almost immediate revive, while another teammate was just left to bleed out all the time due to landing themselves in strategically idiotic places. They seemed to realize I was more valuable and worth saving. Because I was the only one who cared about finishing the mission rather than point whoring.

Host was a Turian, either a Ghost or a Havoc, accompanied by a Krogan, either an Adept or a Vanguard.  I couldn't tell because all they did was go down all match.  I joined on Wave 3, a DrellInf joined on Wave 5, and we topped the board.  Did I mention it was London/Collectors with 2 seconds lag on every action.  Back in the lobby I had enough time to type "never host again" before leaving the room

Was the host Turian using a Striker and explosive ammo? If so, I may have left that very lobby for... reasons.

Not sure what he was using because I never saw him kill anything

Yeah, I recognized the problem with my question a bit late.

This really needs 2. Flying Krogan

 

The host's net was so bad I thought I was about to see the slayer start an orbital strike. The krodept just flew off somewhere into fb white and never stopped. After the invisible enemies started massacring the pug, it was time to go. It's been an age since I've had a lobby lag out that bad. 

[Darth Volus]

^ They found time for orbital bombardment. Be happy.

OT how does one type in the lobby?

You have to unlock Console Commands on PC then you get a command prompt where you can type /say blah blah blah or whatever

 

It's a feature of Unreal Engine but Biovar in their infinite wisdom locked the command and didn't assign a hotkey for it

Not sure if this is really related, but while playing a pug game...my message box was constantly being filled up with messages from other folks that wasn't on my friend list. Going through the messages it seemed like the folks found out what this person was doing..he was adding everybody to his chat sessions? and then sending these random messages to everybody.

 

Not sure how he was exactly doing this, but one guy made a comment that had me crackin' the f**k up.....he stated.."I swear to f**kin god, if you add me to another chat session, I will rip your balls off!".....     ...it was really annoying, just constantly getting these random messages from folks that was confused as well....this was on PS3 BTW...

Well it was a lobby with 3 newbies with no equip.  I was feeling generous so I took BatSol as a carrier.  We got White/Reapers/Gold.  Of course I was the only one who even CARED to escort the Drone on Wave 3.  Everyone else ran off to the corners of the earth to die.  I got it to its destination, then one of the pugs got on his mic and said "At least we got the credits!"  That's when I let the Praetorian eat me.

"We" ha!

[Jeremiah12LGeek]

First game in months and it went surprisingly well.

[ClydeInTheShell]

Predictable. 

 

I never used to do challenges while playing; that is, I never would choose a weapon because I was close to its respective "mastery", but I did today. I only need a few more points for Sniper Mastery on ps3, so I of course picked up....

 

The Indra. 

 

Last time I used it I had fun, this time not so much, and I even had it on the Turian Sentinel, so I was surprised that it was so underwhelming. But I remembered that it's the Indra, so it made sense.

Scorewhores

 

Instead of helping with the upload, these two guys/girls chose to go soloing as far away from it as possible. Of course they went down. And then the third player, who was actually with me, decided to go save them... and didn't come back. Uploading is so god damn slow alone. 

In another match there was a vanguard who charged around like usual but never at enemies primed for a combo by other players. In these cases he/she spammed Reegar. I switched to a sentinel because I saw we had a vanguard on our team. Go teamwork... yay...  . Well, at least there was an adept too so I got to detonate his/her Dark Channel.

If they are still alive at that point, that is when I step out of the hack circle or the escort area, and tell them I'm not doing this alone and/or we can just all go merrily scorewhoring and fail the mission. I may be a b*tch, but I'm not their missionb*itch.

Often expressing this in a sweet womanly voice, in exactly so many words. 

 

(Often it even gets results; they join the mission! Or I get friend requests from the other 1 who may be participating. Much to my surprise, haven't received hate mail over it. )

I am guilty of stepping out of the hack circle if I am the only one doing the upload and other team mates/pugs go away to try and kill stuff. I don't even ask them to get back in hack circle on mic but most of the times after seeing the upload progress stop pugs do try to return to the hack circle ASAP.
