Honestly, with this attitude, it's surprising this game doesn't have an MLG following.

Ammo & Grenades (especially grenades) should go to the players who are killing things; not the guy bleeding out every wave, not the guy on the other side of the map refusing to gel during an escort.
And especially not the guy who saved all his gel for extraction.
Me and my teammates need them. You're gonna be dead, and it's not like grenades explode in your pocket. You're missing all your Javelin shots anyway, so the bullets are in better hands with me and my guys. You wanna waste shots while I have to run to the other side of Ghost looking for ammo? Use a thermal clip pack. Wanna have the full allotment of grenades and not throw them? Go collect them from the box farthest from me, and lemme get dat. /rant
What y'all think of this idea?
Well....

Ammo box priority goes like this; I go first and take whatever I need and everyone else is irrelevant and should just be grateful for whatever I decide to leave for them ![]()

'tis is a free for all.
The only way to get points is to take all the ammo and grenades.
AIm high.

I totally feel you.
That's why I always do my best to "save" those good pugs from the terrible possessed abominations' grabs, or lash a phantom/hunter/marauder behind them.
Or I try the Reactor Hazard button to see what happens while, by a fortuitous combination, they are inside it.

Weirdly this makes me think of the FBWGG days. There was some gold thing for some weekend challenge and I'd only just moved up to silver, so gold was HARD. So I pug a gold and, of course, land in the old camping set up. Really, it was all I could find after half an hour of looking and none of my friends were on.
I played two rounds with this one group--once as whatever my goto was at the time (probably human engineer) and once as the SalEngineer with the decoy when our previous decoy left. And there was one guy on the mic who was super bossy and always raced the Salarian to the nearest ammo box, frequently causing the decoy to not go up in time or to run out of ammo mid wave. Both the first Salarian and myself ended up running out of thermal clips long before wave 10, even with trying to duck out for ammo out back in mid wave.
It was super weird because it's not like this dude was trolling campers (which I would totally understand even then when I was uber-noob). He was deadly serious and giving out instructions and lectures about how since he was the biggest damage dealer (in his case, he wasn't) he got the ammo. He wasn't playing a grenade class and he came in dead last by a long shot; I was still terribad at the game and had more than twice his score in both games (which seriously was pretty sad given how bad at this I was then.
It was both hilarious and frustrating.

Apparently I'm not cool enough to be left even a half-spent clip.

Isn't that what the bonus power evo is for? Who needs to run when you're charging at all the spawns? ![]()
Now if only we could use charge on the ammo crates to get grenades as quickly as we lob 'em...

In cases like this, i leave them to die since they have no idea what they are doing. I've had QMEs/Demolishers spamming arcs with no idea why, when and where to throw. No burst = lousy damage = use only when you need stagger = place the impact properly to stagger as large area as possible (also to prime any enemies in the next room). Then there are the human soldiers who run around and spam frags or classes spamming clusters without knowing how to control the bounce. At least if it was an lift, inferno or multi-frag (ground aimed) class, it would not be that duh worthy though a player who repeatedly drops 5 secs after spamming all his grenades is also face palm worthy.
The most irritating ones are the stim pack players who spam stim packs, then die 5 secs when they run out, on glacier or other bad grenade maps. Extra irritation if the ghosts/havoks jetpack just to beat me to the grenade box or the AIU brainlessly runs around to collect grenades
If the other grenadiers(s) is/are experienced, i just stay on the other side of the map.

Lots of butthurt there Clyde.
Well out of it spawned a legit idea and, IMO, a somewhat relevant thread.
There's a lesson here somewhere! Let's see if Caineghis can find it.

Your lesson would be learning to carry without getting so butthurt and complaining about BS that commonly happens
