"We", you might have wanted to wright "we". PUGs have no individuality, you are just shared platforms.

No, I'm referring to your childish avatar.  Surprised the biobots haven't banned you yet.  You and Clyde suffer from ELD (engorged libido disease).

They are building concensus?

The box of shame was the ultimate solution to the game's main problem reffered to as "the game is to difficult it's unplayable"... across all platforms.

I'm actually a pretty nice guy. You came in defending the box of shame and others said that it isn't that effective.

I made the comment about you not paying because I know that will happen; obviously I have much more experience, better weapons, can solo maps at these difficulties, etc. You are probably standing up for yourself (a good thing to do) to try to make me or anyone else back down as a bluff. It's not going to work here, however. I will accept a verbal "ok fine, you'd probably win" and we can play any map you like and have fun.

I promise I'm actually a very nice/funny guy ;p

I don't camp the box as I said in the ****g beginning,  The only time you will catch me in the box is if im surrounded by banshees and brutes coming at me, with no teleport character / Escape route, I will then go in the box, gather all the bosses, in front of it that I can, then fire a missile at them, Yes, I will do that.

I'm actually not defending myself, i'll outright admit one thing though. I am defending Pugs, Idc how that sounds lol . There's nothing wrong with someones play style as long as they get the job done. Eight, You wouldn't win, I don't care what my stat page shows, I have another account that is better than you, i'll tell the name after I win.  You don't honestly believe that I just started the game and in 174 hours had almost every item in the game, all those challenges completed, without prior experience?  we'll see this weekend, and when I top, I won't brag about it, But I don't wanna hear any crap anymore from you lololol

In the Rio Pug games I play (I only play Pugs), the only reason we extract is because I have carried the team.  I'm not bragging; I am just stating how the games go.  The newer players camp the box, and would either wipe, or would take 50+ minutes to finish.  Often times I get nasty messages from them about how they didn't get to kill anything, or about how I should be a team player if I got sync killed (and the team inevitably wipes).  

If the players played Giant instead of Rio, they'd win more frequently and do it in shorter time.  Or they could just play gold games and win every single time and earn more credits in the long run.  We don't hate these people as people, we just make fun of their play style because it's funny and we come here to vent and share stories.  Don't take the stuff so seriously.

if there was no individuality, people wouldn't be getting called PUGS ..

Nah, I merely thought it was funny.

There is a problem with the box of shame when PUGs on bronze were taught to go there on wave 1 and stay there.... hence the title of "box of shame".

I don't know what went wrong in this thread, but I like it.

Yes, this thread really has a good fighting spirit.  Something tells me that capo never rose up to the challenge of thunderdome or any other 1v1 test.

[Kinom001]

Considering how many teams I've seen wipe because they camped the box, vs. the number of teams I've seen succeed, I'd say it's one of the poorest strategies for playing Rio/Reapers/Platinum. Especially if you don't have the gear to bring down boss units quickly.

 

As a "strategy" it doesn't seem very well thought out. Plus it's boring as hell.

[nukembaby]

First time learning about the box of shame. Interesting coincidence since I was playing Rio last night and it occurred to me at one point that I might not be able to be sync-killed inside the crate due to the steric hindrance. I guess I know the answer now.

[Vrin]

You know the back ramp on Glacier?  

 

You can't get sync killed on it.  

It has an ammo box right on it.  

It only has two sight lines into it

Enemies tend to bunch right at both ends

and Glacier objectives are some of the shortest in the game

I dont understand farming for credits.  I mean... what do you do when you finally get all the credits & weapons unlocked... do they then finally start playing the game for fun?  I feel like they missed the point of the game.

Tends to be Giant whenever I drop into a Plat PUG to 

[millahnna]

Yeah I'd say I see rio and giant the most.  But Rio bugs me because it's abusing a glitched map and in a way that isn't even all that effective (takes forever and the right side of that box still allows enemy damage to pass inside when it shouldn't).  The two main camping style strategies I see for Giant at least involved situational awareness and tactics and such.  They feel more like a valid "hold the line" option instead of "I are lazy so I park in the box".  I just wish I were good enough to bail on the box of shamers and run around more on Rio.  Alas, if I land in a box game I have to hang out near them or I will get my butt shot off. 

[ClydeInTheShell]

I never stay in preset Rio games. The lobby usually has a Juggernaut, Volus & a flamer kit with low level weapons and little to no equipment on, and even then they're not guaranteed to make it. I stayed in one of these games once to see if I could handle carrying them, which was a mistake. Sure, we made it, but it was 44 minutes. In the same time I could've played 2+ not-so-stressful gold games with more competent players and made the same amount of credits. 

 

However, I understand what they're trying to do and I don't knock it; nobody's out there trying to show them the right way to progress through the game and how much fun they can have using different weapons & characters. All they want to do is get credits to get better stuff, like everyone else.

On Xbox Rio Plat is a thing, haven't played long enough on PC to know if its a thing there or not.

[celestialfury]

I actually haven't stumbled in Rio games or lobbies set to Rio in a while. Which is a good thing, because the box of shame strategy isn't even that effective, or the easiest way as Rio can have some horrible objectives and it makes games drag on for so long.

 

I get Giant and White a lot, but I can't complain.Usually smooth games for plat PUGs and they're sunny.
