Recent Game Highlights and/or Low Points

I am pretty sure it was my host, because my game variant seem to be at odd with other folks'. Cirvantes had the same issue & seeing a bunch of people who could not load into that fated 4th spot I am guessing that this is what happens when you pick the game 3 years after release on steam sale. (insert sad face). That, and my location in the remote Canadian wilderness in a timezone shared only by another dozen or so people... yeah, that's why I am so up to speed on what's up in Singapore.

I was really happy to get into those Gold games with inert and Aragorn89 though the guys had to pick up too much slack from my many an untimely demise. I partially lay blame on the bugs, erm, not the computer bugs, the Swarms bugs that suckered me into just shooting my Arc II & punching stuff with high-tech fists. I have one active power on my Batarian, both offense and defense, so a swarm is real bad news.... Though, yeah, I think I cut down one of the Brutes on the Blade Armor, it's one of those sweet, sweet moments. Overall, despite my almost brazen attitude towards Silver right now, I feel like a newborn kitten on Gold. It was really upbeat matches though, actually playing gold. :) I have also learned that thermal clips are important for non-grenade carrying classes!

I had some really wonderful pugs on Silver yesterday as well. I got into a lobby hosted by a gutsy Sentinel (lemme tell ya, when my N7 was 36, I was playing no Silver on a level 12...) but he was doing just awesome, so KUDOS, as well as providing a fun running commentary. I tried to pitch in so he did not feel all lonely with his blow by blow, and overall it was pretty neat. The other perma slot was given to the guy that carried us some (and some more), and the fourth slot was a rotating one b/c the Sentinel leveled/shopped between matches & some peeps are impatient. In one of those slots we got the Alliance Infiltration Unit & I have a feeling I am getting it why they are not everyone's fav kit to play with. I really had a blast, playing all my fav three chars, Man-with-Lashes, Krogan Soldier and then swapping to Batarian, 'cause I felt a tank'ish char would be good for the comps we were getting (lots of Engineers).

And, yeah, my manifest is starting to fill up, even if it's just level I weapons! I sort of miss the excitement of getting the kit cards, but I like getting guns more :) I really want Lancer and Arc to grow up, as well as the Reegar.
