I don't understand the problem with using the GPR or GPSMG.

I pug gold. I don't prefer pugging, it can be awful sometimes, but I have far more successful pug games than I do horror stories.

im playing majority of my games in gold pug

Same here. Plat Pugs are the ones I've just given up on, but that's only because my voice is so hoarse from swearing at them.

[Tupari]

I play almost all my gold games pug. I used to host plat lobbies on the PS3 for entertainment purposes, but these days it'd probably take 45 minutes to get a full team.

[Pearl (rip bioware)]

I've given up. I used all 6 of everything, clutched waves, and we still wiped. That happened four times today, in different lobbies. Don't know if it was just a bad day or what, but I'm done with PUG Golds for the time being.

Silver is more fun to PUG anyway; I can use crap like sniper rifles and the Falcon and still top lobbies.

[oO Stryfe Oo]

Glad it's not just me. I thought my connection was why it was taking so long to get a lobby. Funny thing, though, I got bored of waiting and dropped it down to Silver. Lobby filled up before I could change my class and take off my gear.

Maybe people did give up on Good Pugs.

Pug gold all day erry day, and I extract most of the time. But to be honest, if you try to pug gold/plat, carrying the team is pretty much a given. I can't remember the last time I ran into a non BSNer that actually did good.

Pugs will be pugs. I'll still carry them to victory.

[xOrpheon]

I'd say 80% of my games are PUGs, and I only play Gold and Platinum now, but I never PUG Plat. But I've found that generally, on the PS3, pugs don't know that they're doing all to well. Like earlier i played with a Smashdept spamming lash on everything from the dam on Hydra. I find myself carrying almost all of the PUGs that I drop into, and it gets annoying having it happen so often. Sometimes I don't want to carry.

However much I may criticize these PUGs though, I know it's making me a better player with all the bs situations I get put in. It's that realization that keeps me PUGging even with all the nonsense and rage.

On PS3 I PUG gold every day with no problem.

Same here.

Don't believe the idiots telling you that nobody is playing or that pugs are sh*t.

I do find that finding a Cerberus pug can take a while (my favourite faction, but not everybodies), but Reaper and Geth Gold I can find straight away.

Played a number of pugs last night. Two were bad (and hilarious). I dropped into an all Volus Rio/Cerb which was already going badly when I joined, and a Goddess Cerb where 2 players went down in the first minute of every wave.

These were the exceptions. About 5 other matches went well, all players scoring close together and everyone getting to extraction.

I've also tried starting games on my own, but I don't solo Gold well, so they don't normally last long.

I'm on PS3 and still playing, so add me if you want another Gold buddy.

I really need to get out of the habit of using the Saber TSol while lagging on xbox

I think people like you who support leechers and cadgers that are griefing legit players like Fatherofpearl might be the real idiots.

I sometimes struggle to find Cerb/Gold and drop it to SIlver just for a game.

No problem as I still enjoy the more relaxed challenge of Silver, and I can easily solo waves if the teams bad, which I find more of a challenge in Gold.

Firstly, please forgive me BSN . I should know better than using terms like "idiots", of course we're all entitled to our opinions.

But hang on!  I never endorsed leechers!

Low skilled players in Gold are just players who either (a) don't realize the difficulty, ( think they're better than they are or © need more creds to improve thier duff basic weapons.  I can count in single figures the number of leechers I've come across.

Implying that all pugs are leechers is worse than me referring to some as idiots.

You are naive. People are doing this on purpose. Leeching is every ******* retard that goes into a gold game unprepared, with no weapon mods, no gel, no rockets. And that number has drastically increased. And on ps3 as well.

Improving basic weaponery and stuff is easy, you get them in recruit and veteran packs - that can be bought after playing bronze and silver games.

One can spot the leechers from the legit low lvl players that want to try a higher difficulty. Of course there are legit pug's, and of course legit low lvl players that want to try out a higher difficulty. These players have a reasonable loadout and a fully leveled character. But these players are usually screwed if there is not a very good player with them in the lobby.

Yesterday I entered a match just started three times in a row, always the same player, always dead after a few seconds. Did he learn? No. The fourth time I hit him in the lobby, already readied up again. Just hoping for others to get him the free credits. And that's just one out of many more examples. What is this kind of idiocy? That's griefing, period.

I PUG Gold quite a lot in the early evening before the rest of my FL come on. The general standard of PUGs have definitely improved (PC), most are now equipping cons and gelling (mostly). It's rare now for a total failure unless it's Collectors. Sure I'm a lot better than I used to be but it's fairly rare for me to have to solo waves anymore so it isn't just that. Some days it does take a while to fill up others it's full in seconds. I usually end up with at least one other decent player in there.

same on Xbox.  If I have a friend on we will host and carry two of these leachers.  But a lot of time these knuckleheads will just start a game and hope to be carried by people who join.  I got dropped into a gold match where the jugg kept on dropping.  After the match I realized he was a level one, and he readied up the the next match with no gear.

The horror stories here. Am I just lucky with my PUGs or is the console population such a leecher hive?



Either way, join the master race people! In case of doubt we can always just use a bot instead of PUGs! Mostly they'll even play better, ehehe.

lucky.  I have friends who play on pc and there are a bunch of horrible pugs on that platform as well.

Oh, I do not doubt the existence of terribad PUGs on PC. I run into those myself here and there. What I mean is I only run into those ... well ... here and there, not at every corner as seems to be the case for other people. And I PUG a lot.

Must be a parallel universe then. I pug a lot as well on- and off host 60 km away from your location and end up in games that has just been started 9/10 times. To find a decent lobby takes quite some time, too. Platinum is even worse. But if you mostly host you will get better pug's, as most of the leechers try to host anyway.

That must be it then. I always host.

So why do I not end up in your lobby if I search for matches and you're waiting for players in your lobby?
