Still waiting on the Volus Adept/M-37 Falcon/Condor Collectors/10 Waves Survived challenge.
I'm sure I can find a way to work it into the storyline.

I don't want to be the reason for too many people quitting mass effect permanently, and video games altogether! It's perfect.

...then I'll be surprised. Reading hatemail can be very entertaining, though. Getting vote-kicked from BSN lobbies for inflicting something like that upon them... funny the first few times, but then it would lose it's charm.Prestacious wrote...
Perhaps we'll see it or something very similar in the future

I finished this week's on hardcore. I would've had a 28 minute run, but I got two four point hacks. The four point spawned next to a spawn one time at the beginning... That never happens? Plus, I used a cleanup missile on wave 3 against a single prime. I shouldn't have been so impatient. Carnifex is a monster though.
I tried last weeks, and I got grabbed because of the A button, and on the second attempt, I had a four-point hack in the center.

The video got corrupted though, I uploaded a 3min Wave10+extraction video which took 2 hours to encode and has no audio. Seems to be very difficult for the encoder to work with this corrupted video...
I can play the source video in a player though, so I could just film that with a camera and upload it... There is no hope in encoding the originial video I tried that about 5 times with virtualdub and Sony Vegas... no success at all...
build:

I took warp for Primes armor.. but if you play it right/have decent objs you shouldn't have to kill to many Primes outright. That extra weapon damage would certainly help, also.
MT, I hope you like the part where I mash the melee button in frustration

Yeah, try the build with overload and disruptor. Disruptor+overload
annihilates shields and primes everything for TBs. The Prime will go down quickly too.
@Knockin:
Well done! what build did you use? I would call that a draw) Although someone might still come along and do it faster...

On a sidenote, I went and tried a week 2 run again (w/ footage featuring me cursing at some point..):

Wave 10 Targets is annoying but I'm not redoing this one...
I'll try to record something for week 3 eventually.
edit: typos.

I got so close to completing the Indoctrinated insanity challenge, but I went down during extraction. With that said I only had three gold medals, so next time I'll need to get 3 kill-streaks to meet the challenge requirements. My first attempt at the Indoctrinated challenge was a fun experience. Now I have 1 Cyclonic Modulator IV instead of a III, which shouuld make it easier.
My next steps are:Of course this all depends on my remaining consumables.
- Finish Indoctrinated challenge on hardcore and insanity.
- Complete Now I am Become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds.
- Re-do Merely the Weapon Challenge
- Re-do the For Thessia Challenge
That's quite the gameplan! Good Luck!
I'm looking to do the hardcore Now I am Become Death challenge and I still have to do both difficulties for this weeks' challenge. (Big solo gaming night tonight). I have no ARIII amps, and despite playing a bunch of platinum games last night, the store refuses to give me one.

Thought I could improve my Destroyer time quite a bit- I was wrong, but I might as well use my best time so here it is:

I agree, I need to learn to pizza run too. Well,you cracked 40, that's solid. That's usually the goal I'm aiming these challenges (not so much for the insanity ones, where completing it works for me!)
Nice Job, HoF updated

With a Destroyer, and other classes with no dodge, "running with the pizza" is pretty easy. Analogue stick holding forward (turn it away from hard cover spots) Hold A (to run) *pizza drops* let go of A and quickly repress it and hold *pick up pizza, begin to run, it drops again*.Prestacious wrote...

Then repeat.
The difference with classes that have a dodge is you can't mess up the timing or you forward dash and waste time, but with the destroyer you can mash A once the pizza drops to make sure you don't move past it.

That's it, I know how to do it in theory, but actually doing it successfully is another thing. I usually end up messing up the timing and wasting more time than if I had just walked it! Practice is in order! thanks!

@Prestacious:
There seems to be a misunderstanding in the HOF... I never did the insanity version of this week's 'indoctrinated' challenge, the 29:52 time was for hardcore with crappy objectives.
But anyways I will try the insanity version I guess, quite enjoying this challenge actually and you do not need Cyclonic IVs which is a good thing...

I uploaded the full video for the 'Indoctrinated' challenge. I just filmed my screen with a camera. Quality is quite good for this style of recording... But I hope there won't be any more corrupted videos in the future... it is pretty annoying.

Thanks for the honesty! My mistake, I must have assumed because I saw 4 gold medals or something. Yes, no cyclonics is always a plus! The vid quality is fine. I'm used to the shaky cam! I'll aim for 22 mins when I attempt these tonight!
@kocka: That is rough! It always happens like that though. Something random has to ruin the best runs!
