...

1) surprised that a private company are not upgrading lines when the competition also doesn't

2) willing to pay 50€ for a better connection

 

 

Hehe. All I can say is : Welcome to how capitalism and private companies works.

 

Investment is quite simply determined by two factors. Profit per unit , volume.

 

You agreed that customer volume, in relative terms, is extremely small, so, that leaves only the profit per unit to motivate any private investor. DT is a private investor and not the Salvation army.

 

Dropping a 2Gb  ranges from 30k€-300k€.  (depending how far you live)

 

With your 50€ per month it will take them 125 years to amorize that investment. Now, If you find me the business guy is interested in such a deal ...

Put differently, in a well functioning business, you have to pay a 5k€ monthly rental fee for them investors willing to "extend you a loan"

 

 

Now, In terms of surplus profit - If you had a choice to sell an apple for $1 or $2 and you know people will pay either price, what will you charge? If there was a Tele2 charging much cheaper Appleman would of course follow suit... but they're not. Still, if there were trillions to be made, 10 competitors would've been there, in a jiffy.

 

So one cannot blame any private company, being frugal with their shareholder's investments in a free market...

 

Sometimes we have to touch our own noses when looking for culprits.

It was even weirder because I was hosting, and the only other glitch I've gotten on-host (apart from invisible banshees, which I just accept as a fact of life at this point) is stacks of invincible enemies on Reactor Hazard, which I would solve by giving up and microwaving myself.

I usually got a whole lot; invisible screamers, invisible weapons, off host i ll get invisible enemies, yesterday on condor i even got that one when u can`t crouch so i had to leave

 

what can i say apart from this

 

 

:)

... invisible screamers...

Aaah.
This take me back many years living as a student in a multiple story building. One day.
A cool afternoon in spring.
And then there were those invisible screamers you talk about on the next floor.

At first I was irritated - my divine relaxation abducted - but after a two hours I took my hat off for that stamina. Keeping an invisible staying invisible for 2 hours is no easy task , as we all find out sooner or later in life.

Hi: watched h8ful 8 yesterday
Lo: wify doesn't appreciate QT humour.

I don't know if this is high or low or just kind of confusing, but I got the glitch where husks killed me and I was immediately revived. So that was... interesting?

 

happened to me to once or twice was like wtf mates?

 

This is a known glitch. I'm not sure whether the husk or somebody else has to get the killing blow, however, if you die whilst being grabbed by a husk, the ending animation of a husk dropping you can revive you, as the game gets a little confused as to whether you are meant to be alive or not. Someone older can probably tell you which it is. It's not really exploitable, so it's just a welcome bonus when it happens.

High: A mere two games of Krogan Warlord was enough to get the Biotic Hammer points necessary for the Biotic Mastery challenge.

 

Low: Stupidly got synch killed... by a Brute. lolfail

 

High: Took revenge upon all remaining Brutes for remainder of match.

 

Low: Why can't you backhand Brutes into orbit with your hammer? :(

High : I scored the highest personal best of score in platinum match and the game was very interesting.

 

highlight.png

 

Low: Towards the collectors at wave 10 platinum the mission was devices and with the last one all the team mates were killed and I was left with a device in the center of firebase Giant. With hit and run and with the last missile I was able to succeed with the mission to get surprised with 2 banshees, 2 geth primes, 2  possessed Praetorian and some Collector Captains/ troopers left to complete the wave. I had about 2 ops/medigels to confront all of that with the GT.

Highest: With very long hit and run I was successful to finish the last wave with 1 medigel left and succeed with the extraction in 36 minutes  becasue of the last  maneuver.

Was carried by Hamletic Tortoise through Vancouver/Rippahs/Gold with my Krentinel. Fun game. Every time I pointed the revvay at a rippah it died (although I somehow finished last, obvious hax :P ). Also the Piranha is pretty awesome at stopping husk charges cold.

 

HT and co. saved me from around 5 banshee hugs. I get grabbed a lot but I do think the lag in this match made it worse.

 

Thanks again HT.

Low: I had a clear shot to the dropzone with the stupid pizza when some puggin moron started nuking everything on the other side of the map and they basically all respawned right in front of me. 

 

High: ain't like I need the credits.

 

Alt + F4 is the best power in the game and everyone should try it

High:  I decided to mess with a hydra lookout glitcher......I knew I wouldnt like this guy the second I loaded into the game...he called my GT a kaiser soze " rip-off "  :angry:

 

As soon as the match started...he ran right for it...he got up there before wave 1 started and stayed up there the entire match...even the objective waves...this guy was also the host......I called him a cheater... he tried to justify it by saying it was a glitch..and that by him using it, it's not his fault..cuz the games makers made it this way so it's okay for him to do it.......my retort was to ask if it was also ok to missile glitch since it had never been patched?  His response was .. " Of course it's ok to do that...the makers never fixed it..so it's not my fault for using something like that for my advantage ".... :angry:  :angry:  :angry:    .......I then informed him I reported him for glitching and he lost his she- i - it...........He went completely racist on me..calling me ever foul asian name possible....un-hetero-sexual-phobic slurs...It was actually kinda glorious...bottom line..he believed me that I told on him and he was very nervous about what might happen to him after that......

It's called synergy - the game can't deal with it when awarding points... Your leadership inspired us, and we followed your lead into the fray, focus firing your targets and carving a path through the enemy ;)

 

Melee krogans off-host are a banshee delicacy, don't worry about it. Since I know how frustrating it can be, I try to keep an eye out for situations where a grab might happen, and be ready for an emergency missile.

 

It was a fun match, the team mostly stuck together, and we all helped on objectives. Glad you enjoyed it too (banshees notwithstanding).

Also, the Piranha is pretty awesome period :P

Mmm. Now if that strategy would work still after a month when he finds out nothing happens.. That would probably just strengthen his resolve to keep on glitching. Hope it was a crossboner u played there. You shouldn't be enraged to be called a fluctuation( it's a compliment). After all, fluctuations have already had civil culture 10000 years ago - while we still running half-naked after mammoths. We're 10k behind from my perspective by giving 1 man one voice. Let's wait and see whether I was right 2000 years from now, after rogue individuals have wreaked havoc, and we finally see the light.

OT: The only useful way to sabotage hydra glitchers is during objective waves, and leaving only after w6, lest a new dude joins and gullibly support such playstyle.
I used to surpress spawns from their perspective, kite enemies away to the west side and never use any medigel. Alas lately I'm just too lazy and simply leave in wave 1

Low: took me juggy for a walk after a long time... ended up on a blind date with bugs...

 

High: I am really getting to know my turians

 

Higher: my chic Turian Sentinel (all black with a red stripe) + Lancer X and incendiary  IV did rather well on Hydra and Reactor (platinum)

I had a very... mixed game with Xan and the others earlier today ;) when I say mixed it wasnt their fault at all... they were doing fine! it was me haha... I figured id try my volus with a different weapon... so I left my pistol and tried the... Mantis??? ... that wasnt so good... I dont know if it was because I was maybe 4 feet smaller than before but I could barely shoot anything ;) i had the hardest time trying to keep track of enemies... if there was something running towards me id aim and shoot, but the enemy wouldnt be there anymore... moving targets I know! ;)

... I think the only way I got any points at all was by throwing a mine into a crowded place and getting lots of assists haha

There was also a Kamikaze bug flying around my room being the most distracting thing ever! I hate bugs so much and I kept flinching... it didnt do good things to my aim either ;) i thought small bugs and critters were supposed to fear us??? maybe because were like 100x their size??? apparently im just food/fun to annoy for all the bugs in the world ;)

I think ill stick with my pistol haha...

 

Apparently the game now wants me to use snipers instead of Krogan, which is nice of it... I have the Widow now ;) the game should understand snipers are hard to aim and krogan are just... hard.. and maybe give me something else like more pistols ;) i still need to try out the arc pistol though :(

Haha I know I do ;) i worry all the time about everything... its just the kind of person I am I suppose ;) but I do enjoy the game :)

... most of the time anyway haha

I do experiment though :) im trying everything in every combination to hopefully find things I like :) ive liked basically everything so far but the krogan Warlord... I couldnt understand why if I was supposed to hammer things why could they kill me when I was trying to hammer them??? it made no sense to me haha... maybe I should try it again now im kinda maybe getting used to it ;)

... I dont like the spike throwing shotgun either... there was a huge delay between when I fired and when the spikes actually started moving... so long that the enemy I was aiming at had moved and I missed every time haha... same for the harpoon shooting sniper... I dont like either of them ;)

well it seems i lost my post ok i ll try to do it again!

 

No need 2 worry about everyhing; i know its prolly the part of ur nature but overcome i t:P

 

Krolord is rather fun; a genocidal maniac with a big hammer :P Try him vs Geth since they cant insta kill you! and yeah try him on lower levels bronze maybe sliver on gold he needs some micro managing

 

Graal and Kishock are really fun when u get used to them i admit i am bad with graal but i do like Kishock nothing is more pleasing then shooting phantoms with it :P

I used him on gold before when I was playing with some people here... that might be the problem ;) i think silver is a nicer place for me at the moment... Arkane and Arktinen converted me from bronze haha ive mostly been playing silver recently... gold is too hard for me at the moment ;) ... it was either the difficulty or that Cerberus wasnt scared of a krogan in purple armor ;)

 

Haha I like phantoms... and nemesises... theyre kinda cute... nemesises especially... they have a big red eye and I think theyre adorable <3
