High: I can still carry a match and easily score in the mid 200k's on Gold with PUGs.
Low: I had to carry a match and score in the mid 200k's on Gold with PUGs. :/

Value of Black Widow + Piercing Mods + AP Ammo confirmed! Result = Primes and banshees dying on Platinum at my hand!!!
I still only scored 20k and died 6.02 x1023 times, but progress.
That's a...

High: Milestone game! Turns out the Geth Juggernaut can be sync-killed after all! The latency just needs to be higher than 2000 ms, and the Phantom has to be running Adrenaline Module XVII and skating around at a few thousand mph. If this was part of some kind of mod, it sure as hell wasn't running right. Still pretty cool to see.
High; maxed out my first weapon. The Mantis. Fear me.
High; Mgamerz added the option to quit game during spectator mode. I can finally bail out of spectator mode in the rare event I get synced at the start of a wave. Sorry pugs. But spectating is so boring since I can't take cig breaks with them since quitting that habit .
Low; ... I'll think of something for this later. Need to get back to high by continuing with more ME3mp.
LOW/LOWER/LOWEST: I earned some bad karma today. A buddy, e-Hoss, sent me an invite but I was in the middle of a gold PUG and had to ignore it...but when it was over 20min later, I equipped and readied and accepted the invite, thinking that the worst possible outcome would be that I would find the game full...
...I was wrong. This was worse. I arrived in Vancouver/Geth/Silver and e-Hoss calmly let me know that he had just finished the Wave 10 objective on his last Silver SOLO for Solo Mastery.
Ohhhhh, the self-loathing.
The only upside is that at ~100k challenge points, it was something like his 12th completion of Solo Mastery, but whatever...
I'm still pretty bummed to have fuX0r3d a perfectly good solo...
Nothing to feel bad about. If he wanted to solo, he should not have invited you or he should have set the lobby to private. Besides, nobody cares about CP anymore.
High - My last game yesterday was as HE. I Overloaded two rushing Dragoons into a stagger animation, only for my drone to explode and make one of the goons look like he received a swift boot from behind, stagger lunging him forward. I much enjoy replaying this image over and over.

I think you can retroactively accept an invite, and you'll receive entrance to any related lobby (space provided) -- public or private. At least that's what I've noticed on XBL, and I believe it's the case for PSN as well. Could be totally different if mustard racing, certainly.

I thought friends can join private lobbies anyway?
Not that I have a lot of experience with that. My friendslist is ... not really available.
The Turian moves faster on her own.
The Salarian is in the sickbay.
The Penguin hasn't been sighted in ages.
The Tortoise only plays with the Queen.
The Black Dragon is rarely online and then plays DA:I.
Marksmad got lured away by a Siren.
Frank is cranky.
BiowerPls!

Low: I started my lolmustardreis manifest today. I tried to solo but my pc skills in action games are lacking. My Origin is adamsonx.
High: I got a warlard.
Nice, have you played around with the controller mods from ME3Tweaks?
I've tried it out recently. Of course my goal was to circumvent BW by d!cking around with my favorite mustard flavors. And no, before anyone asks, I'm NOT opening modded public lobbies.
High: Mustardz. Dem FPSsss. Dem load times (wuh? I'm in the LZ already?? huh?). Dem ME3Tweaks.
Low: Still have much to learn about...all the everythings (Origin tools, FOV settings, etc). Also using a cheap spare XBOX controller feels weird in my hands, so I'm feeling inferior compared to my XBL self. I've done a small number of 'normal' matches -- but only on Silver so far.
Interesting: Mouse & keyboard allow for superior control while sprinting. As a controller peasant, I noticed I tend to use combat roll much more than my team-mates...for turning tight corners especially. I only have one right thumb (I checked), and it's holding the A button down. So I tap A to roll into it and then quick pivot my aim/view with the right stick...then resume sprinting. Mono-thumbed action. Proper mustard racers seeing this likely wonder what the hell my deal is -- and why I move around like a coked-up Nemesis.
Low: TrollRNGstore still exists
HIGH: Sweet, spicy mystical mustard credits? Done.
I'm budhalen on Origin -- if you happen to give a squirt of crap about that.
Master mono-thumb controller peasant race.

Even though that's only mostly true, that still leaves two free places in the shuttle
you are welcome to one anytime!
And yes, friends can indeed join private lobbies, gotta go invisible if you want to be sure.

Oh I know and I'll certainly try to next time. ![]()
Managing to get my first top spot in a Bronze game (yeah, yeah I know... we've all gotta start somewhere!)
So excited I forgot to screen capture it!
Welcome recruit

A new player, fantastic! Sounds like you're probably ready to move up to Silver. Have fun ![]()

Wish I'd of know of that movie as a young Terminator. Finally seen it recently. Paul Vern is a genius director. Wish he did more. Why do all the good directors do so few movies? (ie. same deal with James Cameron)

I sincerely appreciate the attempts to make me feel better. E-Hoss himself was gracious and forgiving in laughing it off....Nothing to feel bad about. If he wanted to solo, he should not have invited you or he should have set the lobby to private. Besides, nobody cares about CP anymore.
Marksmad got lured away by a Siren.
I would list that as a Highlight ![]()

It's different on different platforms, though. On Xbox, for example, you can set a game to public, friends, or private. These can be joined by anyone, people on your friend list, and no one without an explicit invite, respectively.

Replying to DaemionMoadrin's excellent post, I forgot that the episode that started this conversation was on a different platform than PC
Apologies for the possible confusion, and thanks Marksmad for pointing the differences out!
On topic:
High: so a Paladin, a Slayer, and a Turian Sentinel walk into a wave 8 gold reaper spawn of marauders and ravagers, and after a few seconds of broken glass, phase disruption, electrocution and intense heat, they walk out with a non-missile killstreak; I think this is my first non-missile, non-grenade killstreak on gold, certainly the first on such a late wave.
High: A possessed abomination took the whole squad down on Extraction in London!
Low: It was the timer reaching zero that killed it, I didn't have time to do the deed myself ![]()
High: I didn't have the time, because I was too busy kiting it exactly in the middle of the team
Highlight: I learned to use the Argus effectively. It turns out that if you use the AR Stability Mod and the Thermal Scope, and put it on the right Turian, all three shots from the burst will hit the same spot. If you can headshot, so much the better. I even managed to blow off a Prime's head on one occasion, getting the gold HS medal ![]()
Here's the evidence in the form of visual aids:
These tried to come in the long hallway. They failed.

These were sneakily spawning on the Dark Side. Notice some are missing their flashlights ![]()

And the HS medal screen

Low point: After completing the Argus Challenge, I noticed that the only AR I'd never completed on PC was the Vindicator. I did it, but it wasn't half as much fun ![]()
