*For those of us who reload-cancel with medi-gel and may accidentally revive themselves, one strike is allowed for duos and two strikes for trios.

 

I would like give my 2 cents on this line of tekst, so here it is:

 

This is bs, if you reload-cancel revive, you should

 

A: stand stil where you died, and revived until your teammate runs up to you heavy melees you.

B: stand stil where you died, and revived until you die again and you teammate comes and revives you.

 

If the meaning of the line is that you do this, but don`t forfeit the solo just cos you had an accidental revive, it should be spesified.

 

This is ofcourse 100% console player crying, but if the challanges are going to be equal, alowing a accidental, or "accidental" revive for pc is wrong.

 

I would also like to say good job on keeping this challange thread going, the challanges helps alot in keeping the game fresh and fun!

 

Ps: hs medal requirements are annoying. #lolconsolescrubissues

 

Thanks Ark, and thanks for taking part in these challenges. There aren't many consolers left

 

I do agree with your issue. All in all though, I think the spirit of this thread has been a fair one and I think people don't try to cheat their way through. I suspect  that this rarely happens even for people on pc who use this way of reload canceling. Honestly, the players know if they've cheated and they should feel bad. I'm trusting that the teams do these challenges legitimately. This rule is really just because I can understand if a team gets to wave 10 and a reload cancel accidental slip ruins the ruin.

 

I'll leave it as is, in the spirit of the competition and trust that people aren't taking advantage of this to just revive themselves. This thread is better than that!

 

Also, I'll be updating the HoF shortly and incorporating x3lander's change to the HS req posted above.

Wow, If I were reading this as an anchorman, I'd be out of breath right now! Very impressive runs. Wait, why am I out of breath? 

[TheNightSlasher]

Small correction Pres: I think I have 10 sub20s, not 11. I already had a sub 20 entry for Widow's poison.

Came here for TheTechnoTurian. Am leaving dissapointed. At least try the solo with the Volus Merc, age 6. All 6 glitched. Harrier X. Thermal Clip Gear. Drill or Armour Ammo. Aim for the head while spamming drone as well as making sure defense Decoy is always out too. My fave kit in the game. Solo, Platinum, or bad pugs. Volus Merc make everything good just like fatTurians.

I see now that I somehow forgot to bring my actual point into the first post,makeing me look sort of grumpy.

That point is, accidental revive should not be pc exclusive. The reflex gel is strong with some of us console players. I do understand that a reload-cancel revive is a pure accident, but so is the reflex gel.

Me, mex and xan forfeit one attempt at arete, cos I reflex gelled. Just saying.

 

* accidentall revives, via reload-cancel gel or reflex gel: one strike is allowed for duos and two strikes for trios. 

Just a sugestion.

I do stand by that if you gel, you should consider yourself dead until revived(if you go down again before you teammate is there), or simulated riveved(your teammate runs to you position)

 

Sorry for being annoying.

 

Ps: I am not in any way doubting the honesty of anyone that does these challanges, if it came acrosse like that, I am sorry

I don't have a problem with that actually. I kind of like the idea that if you do reflex or reload-cancel revive accidentally, you can continue the run, as long as you get the quick "You okay?" customary heavy melee by a teammate (before moving or killing anything).  A revival, of sorts.

 

SInce x3lander is the master planner for this series though, I'll leave the final call up to him. 

[xelander]

I'm completely fine with that change, muscle memory can be a hard thing to overcome. It will save a lot of frustration.

 

As for waiting for a teammate to heavy melee or something like that - I don't think that's necessary. As soon as you revive yourself, the AI reconfigures its tactics (taking into account the once again active player) and you can't simulate even remotely reasonably the situation where a teammate is lying on the ground and waiting for revival. So if you accidentally gel right back up, just go on playing.

 

I believe the people attempting these challenges want the intrinsic reward of accomplishing success without cheating, so I trust that there will be no misuse of this "rule".

[Indoctornated]

My theme challenge is to always play with crappy weapons and crappy level 1 consumables, with crappy pugs. I think that's enough.

- muahmuah with a monster 25 min time cut on Resolve of the Shadowbroker (platinum!) and 2 blisteringly quick Tiers (hardcore). Is it just me or are your solos getting even quicker?! Well done!

My very first solo challenge completed, in a time worthy of my name

Only died once, when double ravagers respawned with line of sight during devices not that I am complaining, when I saw devices pop up, I thought I was done for.

I enjoyed playing this kit, as it can stop banshees from teleporting quite easily, therefore letting me keep the initiative on where and when to move. Also, getting headshots with the Raider is devastating! Once I started going for them, things got a bit easier.

 

Here's hoping for more submissions soon - once I am able to move away from crutch, OP kits, that is
