Someone with a Sniper Banner joins your lobby.

And you think: "Wow, this dude must be a good sniper! good to have him on my team"

 

 

Well, I don't know in which game this scene happened, but it clearly was not in Mass Effect.

In Mass Effect the Sniper Banner only means that he has invested time.

 

 

My suggestion would be to make (some of) the challenges skill-based.

 

For example:

"Kill 10x   100 enemies (>= gold) using Sniper Rifles".

 

Some of you might think that this is easy. But the reason why you say that is that you are a decent sniper.

It definitely cannot be done by everyone.

 

To prevent people from doing that solo or with a "bribed" team, the term could be changed to:

"Kill 10x   100 enemies on public matches (>= gold) using Sniper Rifles"

 

 

Same could be done for Headshots, etc..

 

Would you want such challenges in Andromeda ?  Or how would a good challenge system look like in your opinion.

LOL..... " skill."  I will subscribe to the fact, that there are some really talented individuals who know how to combine certain weapons with powers / character combos that make them incredibly effective at a level some of us don't understand.  But as far as "skill" is involved....nope. This game is about knowledge and experience....period.

It happened when gaming went for mainstream mass public appeal and stopped being for smart people

 

I blame WoW

Am I the only one who doesn't care at all about banners? I'm content with my alt survivor. Banners are like hats in TF2. They mean nothing in gameplay. they are purely aesthetic.

You're just saying that because you don't have the glory of harnessing the power of the Heartbreaker Banner.

 

(It is pretty awesome I must admit.)

Machinist or nothing.

[Learn To Love Yourself]

There should be a stat calculator to monitor the percentage of sniper shots missed to total shots shot (shots missed due to teammate power spam, or such).  The banner would be for the accuracy disrupting teammates, and the banner could be called the "Sniper's Archenemy Gangsta God Yomama Tier Interruption Talent-level - Spectre" banner.  

 

Since all that probably won't fit, I guess it could be abbreviated.

[The_Nightman_Cometh]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Go to sleep, you are drunker than I am.

[PatrickBateman]

They would need to do some radical changes to the net code and set up dedicated servers first which won't happen.

Even hitting an Atlas with an SR from 5 meters away can be a challenge on your average pug hosts potato connection.

[Excella Gionne]

I wouldn't recommend sniping when I start usin' my Venom 'Nade Spammin' Destroyer. 

[TheTechnoTurian]

Not needed, nothing in this game is really skill-based and banners shouldn't be any different. We've already got enough pubstars about flaunting meaningless scoreboards and lone wolfs and best of the best banners like those actually mean something. There's not any meaningful way of implementing a skill based objective in a game like this.

Definitely.  Experience and knowledge about the game mechanics are incredibly important.

 

And isn't this a good thing - when you finally manage to complete a challenge which you were not able to do a half year ago ??

[TheN7Penguin]

I just had to type out the abbreviation to get the joke...

 

I literally had a comment ready saying "SAGGYTITS??? WTF is that".

 

Then I realised... so I deleted it and didn't make myself look like a tool. You know, until now.

  Congratz 2 both of you.. I just kicked you 2 out of my sniping squad.

To add:

 

Get a Supply Pylon kill (preferably on a Phantom or something similar)

Get a Concussive Arrow kill (not just Omnibow, but actual PUG[Concussive Arrow]Enemy)

Get a Cryo Blast kill (not Cryo Explosion)

Get a Kill Streak without Cobra or grenade spamming (with a team)

[TheN7Penguin]

On a Bronze solo I did once, I got a solo killstreak with the M-7 Lancer. Was quite happy.

[Terminator Force]

There should be a no rockets challenge banner that takes forever to accomplish. Objective? Don't ever use a rocket for an entire match else it don't count for 1 out of 1000 points towards getting banner.

Personally, I'd have it as "1000 waves without missile use", and deduct points for using more than one in a wave.

I don't get the use of them outside of being down to your last gel and ops with many more waves to go or saving others from sync kills. Finding other ways to get things done without rockets is basically what playing the game is to me the more I play and get back into the groove of playing better again. So basically yeah. Missiles are for scrubs.

They are. I barely use them. And it annoys me when a PUG missile spams for no reason.

Both of you fail to remember the true threat you must unleash holy missile hell upon. Shame upon you.

Spoiler

[TheN7Penguin]

Well, I'm not going to aim for anything else, am I?

 

I think the last missile I used was with OWA where my equipment was messed up. I was going to revive her then I was like "Oh, I have a missile", then boom happened.

[LoonySpectre]

Speaking of missiles, I only learned how to use them some 3 months into the game

[TheN7Penguin]

They should have made a Cain instead of a missile launcher. A Cain solves everything.
