Rippah's on Rio. An uneventful game, except for a Host migration where I ended up the Host with a super charged connection. It must be nice to have a consistently good connection.
I'm jelly'.

LAGFEST!
Didn't know Recon Mines were that Ping-reliant, found that out the hard way. I was practising with the Javelin on my DrellInf. Frequently my Recon Mines would just disappear into Nirvana and I would get their massive power cooldown even though I released them while in Tactical Cloak. Not being able to cloak again for over 10 Seconds at a time made the game a bit frustrating. The host finally completely lagged out during Wave 6 and I ended up thrown out of the match entirely in the process...

Camping Once in a blue moon I search for a Platinum PUG. Joined a GiP on Hydra, checked the scoreboard to see if some familiar names are there and which faction we're fighting against and got suspicious when I saw this: I recognized the name but didn't remember in which connection. But I realized pretty fastOh well, it was the only PlatPUG I was able to find. I left and started a solo.

Passive-Aggressive-Crashive
Everyone was ready except for the host, even though he was fully equipped like everyone else. I hit my pizza runner macro so that my ready icon would flash on and off 50 gazillion times a second, and then the host readied up. Then things got strange. When the countdown got to 1 second, it froze at 1 second, for like 10 seconds, then the "Communicating" swirlie-doodle came up on the topleft corner, and then the countdown restarted from 5.
And then the host left halfway through Wave 1, as though his connection had failed and he didn't load in properly. Everyone else sat through the migration, but I lost my gear, so I left and re-equipped, searched for the same match, but ninjas stole my spot.
This isn't the first time I've noted unusual occurances with using the pizza macro at the lobby ready screen. I may be able to intentionally crash hosts I don't like. More testing is in order.

Quads
As in, this guy has them. Dropped into the start of wave 1 of a GiP and I recognize the host as one of the N7 69 Worlards I played with the other night. OK, I think, I guess they really like that kit. So we get through the match OK and I see that he's the one hosting. Low N7 host on Gold with no consumables? I think, what the hell, and ready up for another match. I mean, we had plenty enough firepower to carry one or two people through Gold. We load into Hydra Collectors, I think OK no problem, he'll be OK as long as he avoids that Praymaxian I see floating around the lower area. Then I think, hey wait a minute, isn't this wave 1? Sure enough, this guy had switched us to Platinum when I wasn't looking, but you know what? We made full extraction in around 25 minutes (targets/targets/targets helped), and even our low N7 host picked up some points and didn't die too often. I had to go to bed but I made sure to send them a friend request before I logged off.

Headshots
Dropped down to silver to grind through some challenges and rebuild my consumable stocks (poor, empty AR amps and warp ammo). I played Valiant MQI and kept getting very sniper friendly maps (Giant, Hydra, Vancouver in succession) so I spent several games popping heads with way better than my usual aim. I'm usually a terrible sniper but I was pretty consistently topping the scoreboard.

Explosion Playing TGI, I landed in a pug with a KroSent and an N7 Paladin. Between the three of us, there were a loooooot of cryo/fire/tech explosions going off. I could barely aim at some points due to the immense amount of screen shake. Then an asari came in and ruined it with biotics.

Madman 2: The remaddening Madman Who in their right mind presets London/Cerberus/Gold anyway? And only scores 40k by the end even though they are Demogrill with a dozen Arc Grenades at a time Almost exactly this, including Demogrill on preset London/Cerb/Gold. As a matter of fact, just about every game I've found tonight was preset Cerb or London (5/6). I could do with less of that.

Wave1
Dropped GiP to Glacier/Collectors/Gold, Host was a Reegar AIU, it was just the two of us. I arrived to find the LZ overrun with Collectors, Captains, and Swarms. There just wasn't any getting away, so the 2nd time I went down, I stayed down. The AIU Host was down at that time also, so I was curious to see what they were going to do. Since they'd started solo, and were an AIU, surely they could carry Wave 1, right?
Wrong. They bled out, Mission Scrubbed. I texted:
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
It looked rather nice in bright blue text against the deep red background of FAILURE

Due to a combination of lag, screen shake, and middle-aged reflexes, I don't think I was landing that many actually, but I was double-hitting a boatload of Engineers, Atlases, and Phantoms.

Got severe frame freezing on Goddess, had to use a few missiles to survive a hack, one got sync'd on the other side of the map by a phantom, another got crushed by an Atlas outside of the hack. Bad bad frame rate after finishing up the hack, was the only one to get out alive on extraction. Game b4 that, open mic douchenozzle blasting his shitty music, wish many a hard freeze on pests like that.

Horrible Dropped in gip wave 2 on goddess. Had to disable all four devices myself. As they went down over and over again, I refused to gel when a banshee warp ball hit me through a solid wall. Wave 5 wipe. Please, people, there is a difficulty selector. Learn to use it. I have to work up to 10 hours a day, I don't want to work when I'm playing a game. Trolling Next game I found the host must have had a very high framerate. Shit was going on and on. I was dying from all sort of damage, the other pugs were struggeling as well. The host was a retard carbine krogan soldier who let the infernos rain, he seemed to be not suffering much. On the bright side it was on reactor hazard, one objective started inside the room (drone), next one was the hack inside the room

Rage quit
So I started a new U/U/G with my Executioner/AA and got Cerberus on White, by the end of wave one 3 pugs joined with the typical OP load out BS, at the start of wave 2 one of them started spawn nuking, f*** this and I rage quitted, decided to start a private lobby and solo it instead.

There's just no other word for them.
NOOBS.
Dropped GiP to Wave 1 Giant/Reapers/Gold (it was a preset btw), with a Quarian who would Tac Scan Banshees and then never shoot or do anything else, a Shadow who would Duration Cloak and then never shoot or do anything else, and an N7 Destroyer who would never shoot or do anything else. He didn't even have Hawk Missiles.
The match went on for 30 minutes, as I spent most of it running away and watching them run away. It would have been longer but I have pizza sauce simmering on the stove and have to put the dough in the oven 6 minutes from now.

The game's on Access now isn't it? That would help explain all the fresh meat lately. I've been noticing a lot of sub-120 players on Gold the last couple of weeks.

Yeah from the looks of it, I'd wager that the team I was running with had read some sort of guide that told them to preset Giant/Reapers, and their kits/loadouts were also probably from a "git gud guide". From what I could tell, in the right hands their kits would have been pretty good.
