Normally I'd say, "Do whatever the hell you want, they're your missiles". But the other day, a pug used six missiles on wave 11 in a failed attempt to beat my score... ON LOLSILVER! First time this genuinely bothered me a little...


Oh dear!

Also, hi.

Using a missile on a single missile on a single geth prime that whooped your behind is more sad dunb and pathetic than missiling wave 11.

And yes half of the gold spectre scrubs are just as guilty as charged for sucking.

Stop whining about missiles you guys and start not sucking at this game.

Problem with what I said? Meet me in the dome of thunder

Missiles are dumb

I agree. One rocket should be all you get but it should be easier to use immediately. You get one "oh ****" button per game.


I personally like to take 9 with me into each game, but that's just me.


You don't take 9 pancake boy. You take infinite.

Also, scrub.

If it's Geth and I still have missiles any spawn with Primes is getting a rocket on principle. That said usually I missile random chit on Geth all throughout the match. This disclaimer is usually broadcast over the mic that all Primes must die.

Agreed, I'll nuke any ******* geth I choose at any time, especially if I have a rocket or two left on wave 11 and especially primes. Those ******* deserve no mercy.

 I missile on wave 11 for multiple reasons...

If I'm playing with someone who's leveling up and we haven't gotten our three kill streaks, I'm pulling out the nukes.

If I'm playing with AizenSosuke1984, I'm dropping nukes.

If I'm running to extraction with a few seconds left and have a prime or something similar in my path, I'm nuking.

If someone's being picked up, I'll drop a nuke (if possible).

That said, I commonly missile on 'big' waves... typically 5, 8, and 9.  I'll also use one for cleanup on wave 10 if warranted.  Why?  I hate being in a game that lasts longer than 20 minutes.  I also missile big 'targets' on objective waves.  If I can make it switch from a praetorian to something more manageable, why not??

I don't give a **** if someone outscores me.  It's about helping teammates complete the game in a timely manner and get them leveled up.  Don't like it?  too bad.

I use what rockets I have left on wave 11 because I'm leveling up or a friend I'm playing with is leveling up or to clean out a messy evac area. You can't tell people how to use their rockets...if they want to waste them trying to score boost let em.

Of course you can do whatever you want with your missiles, you earned them after all. But rockets shot on wave 11  dont help the TEAM most of the time (On the contrary, because you force the spawns on top of your teammates 9 out of 10 times).

I use them in case of emergency, i.e. I get stuck somewhere with lots of baddies and when I make my run to the exit zone, to clear the way, or when we're all at the lz, we have 10 seconds left and we're surrounded.  I think it's better than letting someone die and run the risk of a partial extract.

Anytime you use a missle you have failed at the game.
They are white flags.

I nuke on Wave 11 a lot just so that the LZ is clear. It's the best Wave to waste some missiles you haven't used yet.

I need to nuke spawns on wave 11 to extract successfully on bronze, otherwise it's too hard with all of those cannibals or troopers

I have experienced many a wave 11 failure because some moron spawn nuked a spawn on the other side of the map, causing primes and all manner of nasties to spawn in the path to the shuttle or next to the spot we were holding out


Use those missiles to clear a path or if the team is overwhelmed, not to get more points

If score doesn't matter why should spawn nuking matter?

Get your story straight scrubs. :)

So much mini FTLs out there.

At least when FTL uses rockets on wave 11 he also use lot of them in other waves.

It's not about score, it's about time and the effort not to make the game harder for your teammates.

Losers and scrubs use rockets on Wave 11 except when I use it then it is super awesome and cool to do it.

My Wave 11 rocketing is so godly amazing that when I see 4 phantoms together I rocket only 2 of them, in order to separate 1 pair of phantoms from their other 2 sisters, which makes them much easier to deal with.

I'm admittedly not good enough at the game to have an opinion (much less--lol--strong emotions) on this matter, but your post makes me wonder about the real reason people take offense at this practice.

Is the problem, then, that people are using some cheap way to boost their scores (which we all agree doesn't matter) at the end of the game and that ZOMG THEY ARE TRYING TO BEAT *MY* SCORE (which we all agree doesn't matter)?  I see a few posts mention that spawns become unpredictable as a result of said nuking, but most of the sentiment expressed here leads me to believe that folks are a little more concerned about score than they care to admit.

Personally, I'm basking in the freedom that can only be found at the bottom of the leaderboard.

Personally it doesn't bother me. When I see the missile kills in the kill feed I automatically check the nearest spawn point. 

I just found it amusing that they feel the necessacity to top score...
