Interestingly, I see pugs getting into more trouble on wave 8 than any other wave, because it requires you to switch mindset. When there are Primes around, stay in enclosed spaces, don't go out in the open. Whereas the wide open spaces are the places to be on wave 8. Think what most pugs do on wave 8 on Dagger - that is, try to hold out in the tower....


This is so true. Not just pugs but me too. I invariably end up spending my consumables because I tend to get too cocky as I see no primes, and getting gang banged by hunters and pyros.

Meh, Collectors aren't that hard but you have to be situationally aware of where everything is. You can dodge lasers, clusters, etc pretty easily in the open. And their big ass Pumpkin heads are hard to miss if you aim at them. 

 

Funny, I never seem to have a problem missing them.  L2P.

Because you touch yourself at night.

And out of likes again. *shakes fist*

... I awkwardly retract my fist shaking.

 

 

Jokes aside, Collectors being bugged on PS3 is why I don't hate Cerberus most.

Collectors just irritate me because they completely invalidate the hard cover system. Every other faction at least somewhat encourages hard cover usage, for the DR+Stability if nothing else.

Collectors? Naaaaah. Grenades that drop right on your ass, lasers that can damage you while crouched behind hard cover, and swarms that will just ignore hard cover entirely. Not to mention floating enemies that can go right over it as if it weren't there. Freaking irritating.

Honestly, It might be because of how often I've fought geth, but I almost never get caught out by their traditionally 'sneaky' enemies like bombers and hunters. As long as you keep an eye out for the cloak effect you can see them coming from miles away, and then all you have is an enemy that doesn't dodge, doesn't shoot, and can be headshotted. Talk about ridiculously easy. If they can really sneak up from behind a corner near you, you're really not doing your job right, and clearly don't deserve your payday.

You can't even sneak up on geth...try closing in on a rocket trooper while it's back is turned and it will magically shoot triple rockets from it's back....:pinched:. Even if you are fully aware, if the geth overwhelm you for a second, it can get a bit chaotic. A few rocket troopers and Pyros and you are down....

It's become a reflex reaction now vs Geth, if my Shields go down by ANY amount, move far away first, figure out wtf bullshit they are pulling now, later

every Cerberus wave is fun if you have a headshot capable weapon.....unless you're the host. Then when you reach w8, you better save 9 missiles and several TCP's worth of grenades for the bullshit that is about to ensue, unless you brought a stagger weapon, which makes the entire faction a huge joke no matter the difficulty .
 

 

The thing with Cerberus is that with the wrong kit they're a pain in the a*se ... with the right kit (AV especially) they're laughably easy. In PuGs though I see more "Mission Failed" against Cerberus than any other faction. However, no matter the kit, every single unit has something about it that annoys me.

 

Trooper grenade spam

 

Centurians have almost Marauder levels of damage output AND smoke grenades (I hate the way smoke grenades remove melee lock)

 

Nemeses instantly shield strip all but the most tanky units, have that ridiculous hop and are always lurking somewhere stupid at the end of the wave

 

Engineers - I hate wave 7 gold because of the turret spam

 

Dragoons are idiotically suicidal but they're so often with Phantoms which can lead to stagger > shank > spectator mode if you're not careful

 

Atlases are such troll units, a bazillion shields, synch-kill to screw over melee kits, homing rockets with stagger and DoT and bloody smoke grenades again - weirdly they're probably my most hated Cerberus unit

 

Aaaand Phantoms - the biggest problems are that they can insta-shank you if they've taken a swipe at a team-mate and that they're often with 'goons - 'goon or Atlas rocket stagger and it's shanking time.

 

 

There are only 2 things I enjoy about fighting Cerberus:

1: Sabotaging Turrets and having them kill the Engies

2: Mission Complete - it's over and in U/U/G that means you know the next game won't have Cerberus!

 

 

The list of things that annoys me about Geth is paltry by comparison.

 

Prime stagger and turrets they can throw through walls

 

Bomber CQC zapper (stagger)

 

Hunter cloak that has the same melee-lock breaking effect as smoke grenades and the stagger from their GPS

 

Triple-tap rocket troopers

 

... and that's it.

Why isn't Cerberus the most hated faction? That's pretty obvious- because Geth exist.

 

Because geth are the most hated faction.

 

Because Geth exist

 

... Geth is the most hated faction. ;)

 

If there's anything that needs to be stressed at all on these forums in general, its **** Geth. **** them hard, up the *** , with a Claymore. 

 

Because Geth exist.

 

The point has now been adequately made, roughly once per page.
