Upload - The impossible objective

I would never mute other players!

















Instead, I direct VOIP audio to an output that's not connected to my amplifier.

Yeah, this.

Whenever I get an upload, I look for the site that is most distant from where we are and make a beeline for it because I know pugs will go to the closest ones. And if someone else comes into my circle, I fuck off elsewhere where I can be of use uploading or trolling the Fiend. Two players in a circle is not just wasteful, it's dangerous.

There's plenty of time to complete the objective so it's ok to retreat if you have more aggro than you can handle, provided that the other uploads are progressing. And if you go down, insta-gel. People bleeding out or expecting someone else to come revive them on an upload is just unacceptable.

It's not too bad as long as people spread out. When randoms Don't understand this and start stacking 3 people on one zone that's when it gts hard.

As for kett the key to doing it against them is to spread out but have 1 person walk the fiend around the map (whoever it wants to follow)

Yep that's exactly right. With the current weapons, powers and power recharge times, it takes a very, very, very long time for one person to take out a friend and a descendant, whereas in ME3 you could take out 2 banshees and 2 brutes in under a second with a missile. This is where we're at right now. It's simply impossible for one person to handle that objective when the odds are stacked against you in the way you've highlighted.

But why are we shooting at friends and descendants?

Totally agree.  For what it's worth, there is a certain satisfaction on sense of accomplishment from beating this objective, especially against Kett.  The other objectives are more irritants than anything else.  I kind of wish they would bring back the escort objective from ME3.

if one of you does everything possible not to draw agro they can effectively crouch inside one upload point whilst the rest of the team kites stuff around /tries to hold a single upload spot and then as soon as one upload point is done move to the next one, the worst part is the enemy spawn and ai pathing, if your shooting at stuff everything on the map seems to run towards the gunfire making it a lot harder to stay alive, there isn't even a reliable way to fix the problem, I was in one objective while the rest of the team was hanging out on the other one on the far side of the map blasting away, the yall died to who knows what and were blereding o nteh floor so I randomly fired into the ground and everything swarmed towards me instead of stadnging around looking dumb.

fof course the yhad actually just completed there objective and none of them bothered with gel..... I was already on the move towards the 3rd objective when it happened and made it into the circle befoerr the mobs showed up, fortuantly I was doing enough damage to kill pretty quickly, unfortunately having 30+_ mobs swarm your ass whilst the majority are invisible makes for a rather difficult time and I didn't make it ...

Last night... I was really struggling to get that gold Apex mission done Kett on Magma, with weakened team...
Upload was wave 3, but still hard with all those Kett ganging up in the upload zones.
Finally had the luck to have some 10K Apex player in the team, playing a human male adept in pink, and it suddenly became much easier...
Like the drunk guy said above, I don't know how but the match was successfully over in the end...

Yeah those Stealth Fields sure come in handy! Well at least when it works, and not 'not works because of some lag'-shit.

Gold ketts wave 6 upload on magma. It was a pleasure last night.
