Recent Game Highlights and/or Low Points

High: Had some good Plat trios with Xan and Ark this weekend.

Low: Xan's host hates me.

Highest: Watching Ark's Drelldept sprint, kick and flip backwards all match made the poor connection worth the games.

Low: I came back to play this boring and poorly designed game because most of my buddies don't have any good games that we could play together.

High: Thursday was fun. Lots of Golds with Hypno, Cerbe"R"us and Oni. I haven't played with Oni for months because of time zone differences so it was especially awesome. I could only tolerate so many games because I was half-asleep, but it was fun nevertheless.

High: Sunday started good too with U/U/P trios feat. Ark and BDaddy (nice to meet you). Evn joined us at the end to leech wave 11 credits. After BDaddy was done evn joined mex and I was about to go too, but then I've decided to do the 200k Raptor challenge. I figured I could do half of the points in a duo with Ark, but soon after I announced my intention in the chat room, my Dear Friends evnltn and mexximal suddenly showed up to "help" me with the challenge by taking away all the points. I knew I could count on you guys As they showed up in the lobby I was uncertain if I could even get 10k points with that PoS "weapon".

Low: The RNG blessed us with Glacier hazard / Reapers I was about to get lag-stabbed by a Banshee on wave 1 like a boss when my sudden rage-quit reflex activated. It was so fast I couldn't even stop myself from quitting and the "Are you sure you want to quit" message didn't even have time to show up.

High: Rejoined the game and the guys told me they have suffered a lot during wave 3 because mex got synced and the other 2 had to duo devices. Good. My Raptor challenge went up by 30k points after the game.

Low: I clicked on Quick match because pugs are unlikely to steal away points. Just like every single time I pug, I landed in a Rio/Cerberus GiP and of course the #&*@ turret was set up right near the spawn point so after wasting 3 medigels I ended up rage quitting again.

Low: Ended the night with a 41 minute Gold solo on shameless Giant Geth with the Raptor GI and only got the challenge done on wave 10.

High: Outsider Mastery is done, I can play Drells again.

High: There was a banner ad on this site featuring Reina Triendl*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    
Low: I forgot to click on it and now it's gone.  

Cyonan  , tell boards.net the bills will be paid for the forseeable future while I try to find it.

The motherloving geth in that damned match man, I think that was the only match where I ran out of missiles. And every single one of them deserved it.

Still trying to find an appropriate weapon for my KroSent. Claymore was fine, it made much boom, but... I felt like it was taking too long to drop Banshees into will-die-to-melee health levels. I'm a big fan of the Claymore, don't get me wrong, I just... want his gun to be even more potent, he's a Krogan, it should be some weapon of mass-destructive, I swear his melee hit harder, much harder. A good hit on a Brute or Ravager is fine, can usually follow up with a melee if Martial Artist is active, but Banshees are definitely a problem. I still kinda new to this whole blood raging melee thing, I melee as a Paladin, but I just do that for priming and stagger purposes, still trying to adapt to using it as my main offense.

Thanks for joining us though, was good fun.

Venom or Crusader will both put out more damage than the Claymore in what I would consider an appropriate fashion, and the Graal adds humour with Banshees in particular. I just like the Claymore for aesthetics, but you're absolutely right in highlighting its one slight weakness with the tall girls. With the Claymore I will always use the Smart Choke and AP rounds, whereas the others allow for Incendiary ammo combos (or increased damage from Warp ammo), but all still have a 'free' slot for the essential Omniblade. It's only really for lore-related reasons that I don't skip Incinerate and take a Harrier or PPR or Saber as well, or maybe even a Striker or Revenant. (I think of that as a completely acceptable non-pyjak approach, but eventually decided that Incinerate works very nicely while closing into Claymore range, and two weapons just aren't needed.)

And as for you being kinda new to the blood rage, it doesn't show. And I know Rossini thinks the same!   Seriously though, it was top notch play, with no sync-kills, and only got me wondering if you've really tested your margins by hosting against Cerberus? Even now Phantoms will scare me occasionally and I frequently time my melees slightly wrong against them. Luckily though, in the case of Phantoms, a Claymore to the face does usually take care of problems. 

And they do nothing to them 

Hey! Game went much smoother than I was expecting. Maybe because I was hosting, dunno. I even got 20 headshots on wave 8, which is unusual for that setup against rippaz. So yeah, good game, and thanks for playing!

P.S: I actually recorded the game, if you're interested.

High: fun games with SenorTomate Biotc booms, melee, tech bursts, headshots - you name it - it was there.

Lowish: when the host ninja switched to Platinum, I wasn't ready and my Fat Turian wasn't ready. Lacked gear, lacked mods. Couldn't hit Toasters with a Saber. If not for Tomate, the game could've been a lot more painful. Juggy tanked quite well too.

Highest: It wasn't painful. Died only twice.

High : Clyde and Jmac decided to put up with my scrubiness, so they (with another good player) carried me through some very nice platinum games on the PS3 - thank you guys! I have watched some of Clyde's videos on youtube; what they do not show is that he's a very good teamplayer: he revived my sorry arse like 3 or 4 times on wave 10 of the first game (when it was obvious I was a little overwhelmed)...

Low: I have yet to finish something other than dead last on a platinum game with a team. Well, there are always platinum solos, where you're always first (or last)... 

When do they not cheat? I believe Darth Volus had a very comprehensive enumeration of their cheating ways, can't remember the thread...

Thanks. You just got cornered by an Atlas and some overzealous Dragoons, it could happen to anyone happens to all of us. Fuck Cerberus.
