I am also a bit curious, how much of a difference did setting the framerate to 30fps make? I confess I wouldn't have noticed the difference if you hadn't mentioned it. Where did it make the most difference? Turrets perhaps?

 

I never noticed any difference with my old rig that usually made between 45 and 60 FPS but never a steady 60. With updated hardware and a steady 60 I started having a lot of trouble with shield recharge (something like 10 sec for full recharge on a full fitness drell with cyclonic IV in hard cover) and getting one-shot-killed through full shields by burst-firing mooks. Movement and aiming were much improved, though, not to mention the looks. But I had to lock it down to 30 for my platinum soloing, 60 was just completely impossible given my level of scrub.

N7.2 End Scene

30:27 - Juh0M (261 444 pts)

 

Got 3 hacks on this one, center hack twice! Luckily my hack cheesing game was on point for once, so it ended up being one of the easiest objectives with this map/enemy. Used my first missile on the 2 last primes of wave 9, so you could say I was playing it quite safe on this one Wave 10 cleanup was hilarious, I was using ops packs if something even looked at me and shooting missiles at lone hunters..

Anyway, that's the N7 series done, it was quite an experience. Soloing with maps/kits/enemies that haven't been optimized for max easymode isn't something I've done before this.

HoF updated!

Another huge update. I think I got carpel tunnel from it. And that Is why I'm a console peasant. I also hit my max quota of likes.
- Huge congrats to JuH0M for reaching N7! Awesome job. You're only the 18th person in this forum to achieve such rank and only the 9th to reach the 10hr club! You are now officially an N7 officer of the thread and you are also deemed ready for ME:A. Invite to the VIP lounge is in the mail.



- Rank up to N5 DJ39H and in great time! Well done!
- Rank up to N4 XAN1! Very impressive work. It only gets better!

- Congrats MuahMuah on achieving "Lone Drell" title and for doing so in style by completing the ridiculously tough insanity solos from "The Compact". Those are some of my best challenges ! "Zero Kelvin" in particular, which has only been completed 3 times and to which you now hold the record!
- MuahMuah also sets the new record for Annihilation and surpasses Nightslasher for second place in total sub-20s in the thread! Stunning!
- Congrats Hamletic for achieving the Armature award for completing all solos in the "Servant of the People" series!
- Special congrats to JuhOm and ark-ryv for crushing the record for "Soul Name"! soo... how many attempts?? Great job guys!
- Please feel free to pm me if I've missed anything (as tends to happen!).

Last but not least.. a new OP update and challenge series is inbound in just a bit... details to follow. Special thanks to AW_FC on this!

Edit: OP updated. "For Tuchanka" is live!

Seems u missed this one presta

[ark]

@pres

Many attempts!
But as we where going for the record, we where very cynical. Death in the first 5 waves, restart. Devices on w3 or 6, restart.
So alot of less then 6 min runs in other words.
Think we finished the full run 4 times, getting the 14min at the 4. one

II. "I AM URDNOT WREX AND THIS IS MY PLANET"

Narrowly missed sub-30. I blame it on the double targets that ate 2 missiles.

 

III. My Turn

Had 5 thermal clips going into w8 because of SG kill-farming. Spammed infernos like there's no tomorrow after that. Was fun!

A very funny challenge.Couldn't sub so i will redo it another time.

Nice job guys! The bar has been set on the solos! HoF added to OP and updated. Completionist achievements should be up later today

[Alfonsedode]

One of the first discussions on the first themed challenge, first page

I agree on this. In my opinion the limitation should be to not allow armored compartments and geth scanner. These two gear cards take away a lot of the actual character gameplay and make it very mainstream.

This way more people would participate and it would be more about the actual character/weapon combination instead of "crutch play".

 

 

@dumdum2: took your advice, met you halfway. No armored compartments. Geth scanner.. I'm ok with. what do you say?

@MermaidsTear: Op updated

 

 

It's up to you buddy because you are the founder of this challenge 

I just truly believe that wallhax should be a Geth thing only, and since everyone is using geth scanner on every class these days when soloing I would be so bold as to claim that it is a very broken gear. It leaves nothing to the imagination and there is no longer any skill involved when playing different classes, because all you can do is put geth scanner on and you don't have to play to a certain characters strengths and weaknesses.

Use geth scanner, put bubble out, stand around the corner and spam Acolyte and reave at everything that gets close. Don't even have to worry about getting flanked since you can see through walls anyway. It is just my opinion that it would destroy the "theme" in the themed challenge.

I will probably do a solo and upload later on, good initiative with these challenges!

 

 

I agree with you that it would take away from the theme if everyone started using it. I'm hoping that people submit different equipment set-ups. I think I'll leave it as is for this one and change the rules in the future if it gets to be rampant. 

My other view on it though, is that these will be really tough for a lot of players out there. If geth scanner helps give people who are new to soloing a chance at full extraction, then that's fine with me

 

All things went down from this defining moment, and now i m a scrub who cant solo with my crutch scanner !

I m blaming your Prez !

[Prestacious]

^ I would "like" this, but I'm still not able to, as I'm apparently too positive for the forum . Well, way back in those days, circa 2013, these challenges were tough! You should see the messages I would get about them being too tough and the medal reqs being very challenging. I stuck to my guns.. Now people do these as relaxing solos! I did make the outlier series for the purists out there though!

[AW_FC_1986]

Techno got rekt at wave 7 in week 1, so yeah, way to difficult.   

Outlier was for the purists? Uh, yeah, well, I guess nobody did that due to the difficulty.....

I guarantee that the original solos would have had a lot less completions had the Outlier reqs been applied. Most people want challenges, but don't want to be routinely put in their place by a challenge, aside from a few hardcore soloists that is!
