I don't need to list the plethora of reasons why this game is better than Andromeda, but is there still plenty of PUG's about (Xbox) to play with?

I don't have issues finding gold matches any time of day. Platinum can be a different story though.

Enough action on all difficulties, generally speaking. Pugs are a mixed bag. Platinum I only play with Friends, so I couldn't tell you.

You'll find players easily enough, though the quality of said group is a crap shoot. I've run into a few competent teams on Gold, but never anything of the sort on platinum; the platinum pugs still smell like shrink wrap.

This is the picture of how I would describe platinum.  Platinum is the promise land of great pug games. You'll get the full ME3 MP experience if you pug on platinum, there's too much cheese on gold. |

Switched back myself (though on PC). I was actually surprised that my PUG lobbies fill faster than the ones in MEA.  It's really fun going back to ME3 but as I am actually playing both games, I sometimes gets confused with the controls! I try to run with the wrong keys, then I forget where the ops packs/cobras are. It's kind of hilarious (for me, not sure teammates enjoy my derping around). Kind of surprised that lots of people still play on Xbox (as it's the old generation right?) but PC is a given as you don't need to switch hardware.  |

Most of the time I have no issues finding a match, often a GIP, but I quite like the surprise of that. I'm usually dressed for the occasion (especially if I am randomizing). I don't usually pug platinum, I only played one last night because the leader switched up, and thought, eh what the hell, we only need to get w6 done and I may as well have done a gold. I'd love to do more plat though, I have twitchy UR cravings. I'm definitely putting more hours in since MEA. ME3MP has more hours than Destiny again for me  |

No, which is why I've switched from PS3 for the most part. I have MEA on my XB1 HD and ME3 in the tray, meaning I can play whichever I want without swapping anything. That said, I really have given up on MEA now as it's not much fun for me. |

Got to say I'm disappointed with ME:A MP and I have got back to playing ME3 MP. On PS it's actually not that bad finding random players to play with, just you have to sometimes be aware of the time of day. So mornings GMT is pretty quiet.
Like everyone else, I avoid pugging plat, it can be painful on gold let alone plat.

I just came back to ME3MP myself. I wanted to like MEAMP but I just can't play it due to CTDs, Disconnects, and lag so bad at times it's like a slide show. I tried is all I can say. I've played a few games lately in ME3MP and it's like night and day for me. I still get lag...and always have but at least I can play and have fun again. |

Never left Platinum is mostly still an easy pug, because some stubborn tryhard newb has his Juggy to let me get all the free head shots.(kill helping) However, I only go quick match platinum armed to the teeth with a mean kit. If you get a good team, great it will be fast. If you have the regular pug, it is biagra for the epeen. |

Considering it tbh since i had a couple of fun games yesterday (ME3MP) - first¸in months. Andromeda is still fun i have no prob joining lobbies unlike Me3mp, also 11 waves becomes tedious after a while ( yes i have been spoiled) on the other hand Me3Mp doesnt have that concussive, bulwark and syphon bs which is really killing the MEamp for me...
Oh... the agony of choice
