Old ME3 MP Strategies

And inert , should you see me. Don't expect me to do well. lol Trying to figure out how to play without a team is interesting to say the least. =P

You're probably short-selling yourself - most players do. Keeping in mind that the best things to do are to reduce the wave budget and kite, just staying alive will assist in doing so. Killing and points only speed things up.

domi's just starting out, relatively speaking - but I can trust her to cover my flank long enough for me to deal with a spawn. She keeps up with me for the most part, unless there's an enemy to headbutt. Really, that's all you need.

That just makes no logical sense in my mind. There will always be players who are better and can solo/carry teams in all MP games. That doesn't make those games "not team based." Like I'm sorry... WHAT? lol

The entire premise of the MP is based around a 4 man TEAM completing objectives. It's not called Mass Effet: Lone Wolf.

If you can solo waves and such, that's fine, that's great! Do so when the team needs you to. But I fail to see why that should be the focus of the gameplay. Team shooting/comboing will always kill an enemy quicker than a solo attack. Survivability will always be higher for everyone involved when sticking together, especially when kits compliment each other, unless, of course, you have really incompetent people on your team (That's a great time to use that lone wolf skill you all are talking about). Having enemies come from one direction only will always be better than having them coming from multiple directions simultaneously.

A good player can carry the team. A great player can make the entire team better. All this feels like those players in halo who think they don't need to worry about their team and go 22-4 at the end of the game and still lose because their teammates got focused since he was never around to help.


Maybe I'll change my mind as I play more matches, but that all just sounds ridiculous to me. (I do, however, appreciate the input guys)

Well, in my opinion it's not good for everybody to be on top of each other. Don't get me wrong, it often happens on Platinum, where most of the players plays safe and tries to funnel (tunnel? whatevah) the enemies. I remember one match on plat, when we went full Krogans, very offensive, and we wrecked da place. Personally I find being near the teammates the perfect solution. Not too close, not too far, just near. Look after their back but in the same time look after yourself and kill as many enemies as possible :)

Haha, I don't know Domi, I've never seen such a strategy :) perhaps she would grab one guy and the rest of the team could save him doing enough damage. That's my guess.

Also - when I play experimental kit and can't deal with Banshee by myself I usually invite her to meet my teammates :D
(I run for my life actually, find another teammate and stick with him/her for a while :bandit: )

Now I know why I get picked up by Banshees from behind so much!

You lead them to me and use me as a sacrifice!!

Is that the Indra?  If so Gandalf has good taste in guns.
