One of my favourite characters(the mighty Huntress) is an infiltrator. So if I should be ashamed of playing supposedly frail sexy space babe, while blowing the faces of giant monsters from space/space Nazis/cheating robots away with the biggest shotty available(aka, the Claymore)...

 

Well, I'm not, really. **** the haters, I say.

Indeed, and let's not forget the QFI who I hear is so OP only scrubs that can't handle the kits only skilled players can choose.

Ashamed is the wrong word.

I feel kinda sorry for the pathetic non-Inflitrators that didn't even score half as much as I did, you know. Like thinking ... "wow I'd be so ashamed if I was them, sucking so hard next to my awesome Infiltrator" ashamed.

But then I usually realise it's their problem and not mine and everything is fine.

Mostly due to agro dump. As in lets say you have a Fury on Condor and your entire team are tac-cloak spamming winfiltrators. That Fury is going to have a bad day.

 

I'm just saying as lately I've developed some sort of conscience and even without thinking it I've been avoiding the Infiltrator class more often. Just as I avoid Disrupter Ammo & Overload if a biotic is present (wish others would do that when I at least Fury, lol). Why should I have such an advantage over the pugs when I'm the one with more playtime & experience then most pugs I bump into?

 

 

But meh, it's just a thought. So wondering what others think... 

 

You can mostly avoid that problem by presetting your map and/or enemy.

 

There's a lot of things I don't like in this MP, such as plenty of hazard maps (Ghost with screenshake if you're hosting and standing on the rain with shields, Dagger in general, White for making half the map pretty much unplayable, Giant with the beloved screenshake and **** visibility), huge and/or open maps if you're playing with a CQC kit and/or short range weapon, Geth enemies at any given time and place... let's not forget that any given map turns into a hazard at w11 because pugs will mindlessly rush into the LZ and inevitably get destroyed, but I digress.

 

2/3 of all my matches were on infiltrators and I honestly don't give a ****. Don't cry about the aggro dump, you have a shitton of cover in most places (running around in the open is generally a bad tactic in this game) and especially sniper infiltrators aren't drawing much aggro to begin with.

No, but a good sniper infiltrator will watch teammates' backs and make sure they don't get pummeled on all sides. When I play an infiltrator, I focus on whatever enemies my teammates aren't focusing on. It helps carry even bad pugs to wave 10, with next to no clutching required.

If you're a good infiltrator it doesn't really matter what you do, you should be finishing gold pug games in <20 minutes.

I think it does matter, because if I can carry pugs and not let any of them bleed out ever and allow them to barely ever get downed despite their incompetence, I should.

 

It's a team game.

Well I believe that's up to personal preference and how you enjoy the game, if you like to help others than there are lot's of possibilities in pug games, nothing wrong with that.

Then you can solo or do speedruns with friends.

 

But playing team games with pugs is kind of pointless if you aren't actually working as a team.

Giving you a bonus like for the name and avatar, there should have been a Sandal kit in this game!

I'm thinking a volus-height Human engineer with three powers that all involve ENCHANT-ing weapons to grant teammates (1) Cold Iron (bonus vs Collectors, Reapers and Cerberus), (2) Dweomer (DR vs ranged attacks) and (3) Hale (sync kill immunity). A Sandal and 3 Haled Kroguards would be completely unstoppable, even in a Banshee spam game. :P

Now the question is, "should someone be ashamed of quitting in the middle of a match just because they went down."

 

lol. I was. Well, at least I felt bad afterwards. But what can you do when the rage gel bug eats all your gels, ops, and rockets.

To feel shame or not to feel shame that is the... better idea shame the enemy and any PUG that wants to get an attitude. Play what you want if people don't like it they can 1.)deal with it 2.)find a new lobby 3.)troll you in game 4.)be a leech 5.)kick you. 1 and 2 for the rational 3 for the humor 4 and 5 if you think you're a god that needs to have their way and in that case do you really want to play with those types of people anyhow?

Weird attitude... Let' em play, do ur thing. Don't let'em interfere who u are. If u have only infiltrators as a biotic or tech character so be it... No reason to mess up their play style.

If there is a biotic on the team I always replace disruptor or incendiary ammo with warmp ammo. Cryo mostly collect dust :P
 
Really weird stuff is when biotics themselves aren't using warp ammo.


I usually run incindiary with my biotics. You get the fire explosion stagger/damage and then the biotic stagger/damage right after. Great for crowd control and general pimp-handing
