Apologies if this is an old topic, I searched but didn't seem to see a similar topic.

 

No judgement here... so tell the truth...

 

Who nukes spawns on wave 11, and WHY do you do it?  

 

If you don't do it... how often do you observe it happening in PUB games?

I try not to unless I don't realize its wave 11.

Nope. I normally nuke spawn between objective waves starting at Wave 4 :D

 

Probably unwise, but some 'traditions' are hard to change.

Usually no.

 

When I'm playing Gold or Plat I always save a rocket or two just in case anything gets in my way when I'm circling back to the LZ/EZ, but other than that I don't bother.

 

I see it pretty regular though. Why they can't use them in the first 10 waves to make the game quicker/easier I don't know.

Firing missiles feels good. I do it when it pleases me. Sometimes that's wave 11.

Never. Those missiles are reserved only when needed.

People do it for the points. They are the same people who pause in between each wave for half a second to check the score. 

 

I guess I still can't resist the bait after all this time ;)

If I have them left, and it's Gold or Platninum. (Alright, Gold. I never have them left in Platinum), I'll nuke clustered 'bosses' to give some breathing room for extraction. (2 Brutes and 2 Banshees in the LZ? Boom.)

I will only nuke if something is in my way when I am making the mad dash for extraction with 10 seconds left..other wise..I will if people are nuking stuff that makes something spawn right on top of me.

I have to agree with the AHF unspoken pact, there.

In the past I was ambivalent about it and simply used it in W11 indiscriminately (opportunism/strike, cornerned, clearing the forest, spotting an unsuspecting butterfly, ahem, etc).

Lately it is only used to save mate from sync kill or some highly explainable reason.

Why ?

1) w11 has "endless" Enemy budget.
2) Surviving the clock as team is what matters ( also i.t.o credits).
3) the relative credit increase due to missiling is negligent.
4) Missiling like mad cockroaches, makes spawns uncontrollable and hence endangers your teammates survivability ( spawing in top of them). Especially critical in Plat.

Behaviour witnessed in Speedruns supports this argument .

And so :

I won't complain if a fresh player does it (unknowingly) - but a seasoned player should know better. Go observe for yourself - 90% of those that actively does it nonetheless indulge in score-"hoarding" : ie 'catch' up to narrow the 'the great divide' ...

ps. Post edit: this topic belongs in the mp section

Unless its absolutely necessary to save a teammate or run for extract. Typically, most, if not all of my missiles are used up before extract.

Yes all the time.  And Wave 10 as well just to get the objectives done.  In fact in public games the most troubling thing is when your teammates refuse to share the load and use missiles as well.  Then the entire team wipes out because people are being cheap with a disposable item.

 

Yeah you know who you are.  jerks.  I'm a callin you out!  I encourage the use of missiles!  the more the merrier!  I use missiles just to make headway on objectives and sometimes just to edge someone out for top score.  Yep I do that.  And guess what?  I'll continue to do it.

Only when spot we are in is overrun or some boss levels units are in between us and LZ then. Other than that I don't waste nukes/missiles etc on score whoring. :D

depends where they spawn . ..and if too many grabbers, exploders and cheaters are making their way to the shuttle .. they just have to die .

otherwise missiles, as is mediegel , are best kept for rage fits.

Cause destiny sucks, and I got to release that built up rage in the most inefficient way.

I usually nuke wave 11 to try and get the killstreak medals if we didn't get them during the match, as I am a sucker for medals...

I try not to unless I don't realize its wave 11.

And usually when someone nuked the hefty enemies first and THEN we press the 'nuke' button.
