Man, the things I would do for a harrier or typhoon right now. I love using the destroyer but I hate the Revenant.

Here is a couple I saw yesterday... I had yet to see a glitcher until yesterday in the Platinum games I played. Both times we voted to kick the person glitching...

Also Gui, enjoyed the games last night, and sorry about setting it to Reapers on Platinum :)



Why do people even do that? It's no fun =\
That's a real strong Krysae btw! What upgrades and/or gear do you use?

Also this is awkward but I wish I could've played with you(that wasn't me yesterday)
You guys usually get on too late for me to be able to join =\

Hmmmm... could have sworn the message I got from someone said Gui in it. Weird, not sure who it was now. lol


So who is Kame no Shiki & Cantaloup on here? Those are the two that messaged and joined me last night...

Use a Barrage Mod in your perm equipment slot, stability mod and AP on the weapon. Spec D-Mode for rate of fire and damage and you've got a Harrier with triple the clip size.

I think I found my favorite Slayer build.

6/6/3/5/6

Putting all your points into Phase Disruptor REALLY helps it. It already has the innate ability to stagger everything repeatedly (stunlocking Phantoms to death is incredibly satisfying), so treat it almost like a ranged Nova.

So, Rio is the best map, both design and appearance wise.
Until you fall through the floor and become useless unless you are an N7 slayer with biotic slash :/

Also, I'm taking advantage of the goodwill of missile glitchers. Free 150k in cash, then I report them to bioware with a link to a video showing their feats :)

Also yeah, phase distruptor is more important than most people credit it for.
 
Not sure if old. (take with a pinch of salt)

“When I asked if Earth would be the last multiplayer DLC he actually laughed at me and explained they are making way more money developing multiplayer content than they would single player content, though both are being made,” according to the forum poster.

While the single-player DLC might be the Leviathan add-on, which is practically all but confirmed after files and voice actors have confirmed its story, the multiplayer add-on might bring a fourth enemy faction.

“When I commented that I wish there were new opponents, he confirmed the studio was already working on a new faction,” the poster added.

What’s more, besides the new enemy faction, BioWare is also trying to make cooperative missions, not just matches based on waves, according to the unnamed source.

“He also says they have written plans on making 4 player cooperative missions that play like the single player, but he said that it was at a very early stage of development and cannot be guaranteed.”

Tried out the Geth Infiltrator with N7 Piranha(Smart Choke, Piercing Mod ,+5 shotgun gear nothing else) today and wrecked shit on gold like it was going out of style. Seems better than the Reegar when used like that.

PSP's have been shit for me today.

yes please. if they allow you to use the current multiplayer classes in cooperative campaign like missions id be really happy.

also, i love the piranha. its powerful and doesn't weigh very much. was using it on my Fury and my Vorcha to great effect.

For the last DLC I unlocked the Reeger and the Krysae to X before even 1 character to card, and the same thing seems to be happening now. Every PSP I get the weapons first. I'm almost at both to X.

Luckily, I do have a Slayer but he's the one I wanted the least. Since I'm not host often, I seem to always get the charge bug.

I used that human adept for the first time, the one with the leash. Holy shit. Taking out 3 pyros at once on silver with a mere 2 really quick leash slams was amazing. I have to learn to master the distance better so I don't keep putting myself in danger, he's squishy as hell like most other characters are for me for some reason.

What the hell is going on with the lock ups on the PS3? Far to many matches lock up near the very end especially on Platinum.

I heard the Ex-Cerberus classes have their Fitness tree broken, well the part that improves their health and shield anyway. Dunno if it is fixed yet. But Smash is pretty powerful yeah and Lash is a fun ability, just to watch all these armorless targets fly.

Piranha + Infiltrator or Soldier on Gold melts boss mobs.
Only positive thing about missile glitchers is that most of them suck and can't play Platinum for shit. When they inevitably die I get a lot of practice soloing the later rounds. The Devastator/Piranha combination makes it a breeze.

I believe that has been corrected. What was happening is that the other classes are accustomed to having invincibility frames. The Phoenix classes do not have that and their biotic abilities have a pretty long animation. That's what was getting people killed.

Smash vs Geth is very powerful.
Top tip: Geth are incredibly vulnerable to side-stepping. Combine Smash with Adrenaline Mod 3 and you get this: 21 min Vanguard Gold Solo. You can do the same with the Adept you just have to be a little more cautious (no charge to refill your shield.)

More MP DLC sounds great. I would pay for it. Said it a bunch of times before, but so far MP has easily been my gaming surprise of the year.

The more i play the Shadow class the more i love it. Backstabbing enemies with Shadow Strike and finishing them off with a melee sword attack feels good. Especially against Phantoms.

Fuck, no. It looks nice but plays like shit. At least with randoms.
Not many DLC maps are actually good... IMO anyway. Hydra's okay, as is Vancouver. Don't like the rest of DLC maps really.

Finally got Harrier and Talon. Haven't had a chance to test Harrier yet though but it seems to be nice.

I hate how N7 Slayer has to have one point on Charge. Not really keen on using Retrain Powers, have two of those (all i've ever gotten). I was kinda going to be using it as ranged class, use PD to knockdown anyone getting too close and devaste them with Biotic Slash. Don't really like Charge in MP, there's too great a risk for the damn Charge-glitch to occur (whenever there's lag anyway... overall, the game's been laggy the last few days).
I know when the glitch will occur (you charge and die before the animation kicks in) but whenever the game lags a bit, this happening becomes kinda unpredictable.

Out of the dlc maps I probably like Vancouver the most, Rio is kind of annoying for a number of reasons for me. I really hate having to go from one end to the other all the time to find shit, or if you're fighting from one side and you end up with the glare of the sun fucking you up. London is ok, but on gold+ I really hate playing against the geth on there. Would probably like it more if it had an ammo crate up top.

Yeah the glare on Rio is horrible. Escorts on that map are especially bad since you're basically always exposed.

I hate my luck with Ultra rares... i got a lot of rare shit unlocked, yet it looks like this :

There's not a single one worth using when all my rare weapons are at X(well except the 2 new ones). =/
 
I guess I've gotten really lucky with my Ultra Rare unlocks. My Wraith is at V and I love it so much more than the Claymore. Gear, though, is a different story. All I want is to level my Grenade Capacity and I seem to get everything but.

Started playing again tonight after a decent absence. Got the vorcha sentinel and he is awesome, what a nice welcome back present!

Speccing his bloodlust and class training for power damage right now so I wanted to ask for some tips. What is the best shotgun/assault rifle for the class? I've been using the N7 Crusader to pick off distant foes because anything at close range gets toasted nicely by the flamer. It's pretty fun sprinting and closing the gap to an enemy then roasting when the shields pop.

Also, should I pick the anti-armour or anti-shield/barrier flamer evolution?

Best gun for him IMO is the Reegar, if you start firing you can use the flamer as you fire so you can essentially just have 2 streams of death coming out of you. I spec for anti armor in pretty much everything when you have that choice.

You think the Piranha is cray with the gethfiltrator, devastator is lol as fuck. Especially vs reapers.

Have they removed characters from the roster? I've spent almost 2 million in credits today and I've received no characters whatsoever (other than one female human soldier)
