I entered a random Platinum match and quickly discovered it was either bugged or the Host was using cheats (on PC). Shields would drop but health bar just flickered between 99% full and 100%. The interesting thing though, we got to round 6 which was a Hack mission and still failed to complete it. This is how utterly bad Bioware are at balancing. Even with infinite health the Hack mission could not be won.

Careful mentioning the C word on this forum! The self righteous will say that you should have left that room immediately, deleted your account, deleted your game files and overhauled your PC to make sure you never ever ever enter a room with a cheater.

Kiddies are dicks like that.

You are actually supposed to travel back in time to kill all your ancestors to make sure you can never be born to participate in a cheating game.

Yes, I still play ME3MP. No, I don’t know why.

You failed because cheating didnt correct the issue. Clearly your squad dieing wasnt the problem, problem is, as ive been saying since yesterday, bad, ill equipped bronze players do not belong in platinum. I swear I orgasm just a microsecond everytime I read about platinum being to difficult.

Yep, Billy and Conal did cover this on the Twitch stream.
Just like ME3, sometimes you need to quit the hack.

The problem exists between chair and keyboard.

I ran into some of those cheaters too and every time I say "fawk this, I'm quitting". But then I remember I have those precious Ammo boosters equipped and I don't want them to go to waste.

Losing 50K credits on gold is one thing, but I'm not throwing away my Ammo boosters.

Hack has been changed so that enemies entering the hack circle will interrupt it - similar to uploads.

Teams have been finding it works better to put a cloaker or 2 in the circle and have the rest of the team kite enemies away.

Also, is it me, or did we get less time for devices now?

Yes. It was originally 5 minutes for all 4 devices, now (supposedly) 45 seconds per. (but it's actually 38).

I find you thinking that I ever said, or implyed, or gave you any reason to believe, that I believe, that I'm very good....

hilarious. :hue:

I suck at this game, I never EVER said I was above anyone at playing it, (its co-op vs bots, there is no skill in this game anyway) But let me put it this way, I sure as hell can carry a 3 dead team of 4 through a game and, since most find it significant, top score even playing with BSNers when i'm offhost. :kiss:

Platinum is easy, if your willing to change the way you played gold before the update.
