Don't hate yourself like that, just quit. Lag is for wimps. I now host, or don't play, too sick of EA's useless netcode. Nothing works properly off host, even when it doesn't seem like it is lagging. Lag is just the fitting icing on a cr*pcake.

 

:D  I know I lag for every match I play but sometimes it's not so bad I can't hit what I aim at. I know when I see everybody and mobs moving in jerking motions, I can't play the match, I leave. But sometimes it's not obvious. It comes and goes during the game. One moment I'm moving freely, the next, I'm treadmilling. Or like I said, I would suddenly rubber band.

High: Nightman joined in with Arkhne and his lovely wife for a couple of games. Nightman did not disappoint, excellent player, and funny as hell.

Low: Arkhne roasted me, I'm so stoooopid

Lower: in another private lobby and hard froze on extraction

High: Trollstore made up for it by supplying me with Crusader VIII and Lancer IX, down to 41 more upgrades

High. Walking past banshees. :lol:  They were so focused or rather pathing to other team mates that I just strolled by them a couple of times. I should feel insulted they didn't want to dance with me. ;) :P :D

 

Try the phantoms, they're usually feeling friskier.

Got way too many games today, a Plat, mostly Gold.

High: last games seemed definitely on the 'high' area, as some of our teammates were that :D . Hilariousity commenced with the hubby, Ddawg and SeanA.

 

High: After two impromptu 15+ min runs, got it down to a speedy, exactly 15:00 min Geth/Glacier/Gold -w/ Arkhne, FireRider, WildFrenzy. Taught me to play more aggressively, a definite plus.

 

High: Got back to using the Paladin after 4months.

Even got some games with Mexx (he actually talks sometime!), FireRider, Xan, wildFrenzy, AlSwearengen, and the Nightman who cometh and meeteth for the first time, too. :) Thanks for the curries, guys. :)

 

Lows: none.

FireRider still claims to have "helped" with my Piranha skill streak on wave 1. (Just kidding, FireRider is an awesome teammate)

 

Piranha GI is best GI.

High: 2 fine matches with HamleticTortoise earlier this day, including 1 with 3 HFSent!

 

High: 5 games in a row with Balbock. On Glacier Hazard against Geth we both rocked the Phaeston TSol. Also, I nuked a drone. On purpose ofc :ph34r: .

 

Low: Trollstore won´t give me my much needed Drenmods III. Curse you!

 

It was my pleasure to see you drop into the lobby! I am trying to get a better feeling for platinum gameplay, wave composition and such, since I have played very little of it sofar. Having someone who knows how handle stuff in the team was great! Lesson learned: pugging platinum can be brutal :P And thanks for switching to HFSent that fist match, it made for quite the fun gameplay :)

 

High: fantastic 3-volus team match. I am not very comfortable running volus kits, but this time we coordinated, helped each other, and just really cooperated to ensure full extraction (the reegar kroguard that quit during wave 4 doesn't count :P); if you are reading this, thank you for a really great game! :) and sorry I can't remember your names...

High: Need only one more upgrade for the PPR and the Carrier and my manifesto is maxed.

 

Low: I´m looking forward to getting useless Cryo-IV and whatnots instead of drenmods and shotgunamps. Yikes.

I got syncd 7 times in 3 games last night...but at least my corpse was nice and shiny & most of the time..one of my arms was flapping around long after I died.

 

Revenge missiles are the best..when used in the wave following you being syncd..normally I reserve them to save teammates,objectives or clearing the EZ...but revenge nukes......uuuuu-hahahaha...come here banshee...    so sweet

 

I guess thems is the lows & the highs..............

Ninja'd a couple of matches with Omega R3dd and canozzie, which was fun but my mic and headset weren't working so I couldn't imitate a volus between waves. 

 

Also, Omega is OP. Bring back balance changes - needs a nerf.

Just realized that I might have sounded like a name-dropper occasionally, but really am getting great games with and due to all of you guys, and it's my way of saying thanks, if forget during/after the game.

 

Everyone here I play with has an impact on my improvement (yeah, it is impossible to beat those guys but we can all have goals) and being quite comfortable on Gold.

Especially, they've enabled me to even move up to (or lured me into?) Platinum now, which I haven't done until the past week, and couldn't / wouldn't do with Pugs. I'll claw my way up from the lowest scoring slot one day. ^_^

Incendiary Ammo Collector Sniper Rifle 

 

Collector Sniper Rifle is only about 20 ammo away from being a top tier weapon.

 

It's already really good once you get the rhythm of pulsing it (*waggles eyebrows lasciviously*) but the necessity of doing that holds the CSR back from true top tier-ness.

 

= = =

 

High: Platinum games with Brannigan, Drake, and BaileyTFL.

 

Low: I died about a zillion times playing the Asari Justicar with Power Amp instead of Cyclonics. I am a n00b again.

 

High: Then later on I played some Gold games some non-BSNers on my friends list, using the Vorcha Sentinel / Reegar / Incendiary Ammo.

 

Low: I think that means I am still a n00b if I use that character and loadout, right?

Well it depends on the situation.  Once the Banshee is down to 2 Armor Bars, I will just hold the trigger at her until she dies.  I'll take a 3 second cooldown phase as long as I get the kill credit.

Honestly, it doesn't even need that much more ammo. Nothing wrong with treating it as semi-auto. It's fine up to Gold Geth, would need about 10 more ammo for the other factions.

It's fine vs all factions, but you do need to switch up your approach vs various enemies.

 

http://kalence.drupa...24N55364!EDEA.O

 

Here is what I usually go with.  I take the Cyclonic because with full Energy Drain on Geth, or other various assorted Shielded or Barriered targets, you can get rather facetanky, and sometimes that is just what the situation calls for.  You can also use Adreneline Mod or even Power Amp, it really doesn't matter here.

 

Vs Geth, you can simply Cloak > Energy Drain > Shoot Shoot Shoot.  Vs Reapers and Collectors, there's a lot of heavy Armor targets, so Cloak > Shoot > Proximity Mine > Shoot Shoot Shoot for grorious Fire Exprosions.  Vs Cerberus, you have to mix it up a bit more, but it's certainly doable as a sort of "middle ground" between the other extremes.  Do be on the lookout for Collector Captains, Marauders, Centurians, Nemesis, as these will be great Energy Drain targets to boost your Shields.  There's no reason you can't disengage your current target to cast an Energy Drain in their direction, even if they aren't your primary concern atm.

 

I usually pulse it to 3 or 4 bursts per magazine, but sometimes I will tap it a bit more frequently.  It's an extremely versatile Sniper Rifle, in that as long as you respect the ammo capacity, you can fire as little or as much as is needed in any given situation.  Black Widow, for example, I see a lot of people using because "Black Widow is good and I am the King of all Snipers now because I have it" but with the long refire time, they must make every shot count, but they never do.  CSR is more forgiving in that regard, because you can simply release the trigger, adjust your aim, and resume.

 

When I don't Incendiary CSR, I Disruptor Ammo Valiant, because that's always fun to beat Black Widow users with too.

That gun wrecks platinum with Incendiary IV and a good sniper kit, it would be way to OP with a bigger clip.

Every gun wrecks every faction with Incendiary Ammo IV.

 

TL;DR everything is OP.

Not disagreeing, I just want to overheat less ;)

 

As to SMR's post. The problem is likely me again as I take fitness instead of proxy mine, with an Adrenaline Mod, your setup probably works even better, I would just have to adjust to the new style. Will definitely give it a go at some point (Probably my alt account, I do weird stuff there). I like to take Disruptor Valiant on the QFI vs Geth, that is stupidly good.

 

I'm also reluctant to take a Sniper to Platinum. I can wreck face with a Widow/Mantis on Gold, but I find I prefer Justicar, PPR Destroyer, Saber VolSent or some other silly OP kit for Platinum.

 The CSR is fine as is. I very rarely run out while using it and with some good mods and gear, it very strong in terms of dps. You just need to tap fire it and ease up just before it reaches zero. It's excellent for priming due to high fire rate and on platinum due to the lack of ammo constraints. It's practically one of my favorite guns in game.

Yeah that's not a shortcoming of the gun, rather a shortcoming of how you spec your SI.  Energy Drain is of course great vs Geth, but you really should have Proxy Mine vs all other factions.  This is regardless of which SR you are packing.

It takes a bit getting used to but sniping in general is not that bad for Platinum, lot's of big slow moving boss units. Cerberus can be a bit more problematic due to all the Dragoons and Phantoms.

Give it a try, it's amazing on the SI, DAI, Human Vanilla Infiltrator and GI with Incendiary IV and surprisingly good on the QFI with disruptor IV.

If you want to chose one kit to start with I'd recommend the salarian infiltrator for it, I think he's the best sniper in general among all the sniper infiltrators in the game even though a GI can do a lot more damage in the hands of an experienced sniper.
