playing as Infiltrator in MP is so fun, makes me regret going as Sentinel in the main game

Don't know if this has been posted but I found this on reddit and figured you guys would find it interesting. Its a break down of all the guns in SP, I assume the stats are the same in MP

I'm tired of playing with randoms and wiping in silver.

I want to know this too.
I also don't know how to climb ladders in multiplayer lol.
I only played a couple of games and haven't bothered looking for answers to these questions yet... if I can't reassign powers, I may switch to a different class in multiplayer so my brain doesn't have to adjust to a new hotkey configuration every time.
run up to them
And i'm fairy certain you can't change the configuartion of your powers.
You can, but it requires a respec token, which you have to get out of packs and is relatively rare. Failing that, you can just promote the character and start over once you hit level 20.
Speaking of cheaters I've actually seen one now. Played a few matches, and one guy playing vanguard was dominating pretty much. Knowing that on bronze I generally get tons of kills with it I wasn't paying much attention because I was playing infiltrator going solo and sniping.
After second match on Tunchanka the host left, and I became leader, map was that Glacier so it's a lot smaller and something was off about this guy after several rounds because he would kill everything too easy. I don't know all the guns and his had some greenish particles on the so I though it might be some unlockable weapon, I only unlocked krogan shotgun so I have no idea what other weapons are. After several rounds and seeing how he kills even guardians with one shot I finally figured to look at the statistics and all of his kill were by a missile launcher. Of course I instantly quit the match.
As for the stats in first 2 matches that we finished where some other guy as hosts, they were standard for bronze difficulty, around 100k exp and 15-20k gold so all normal.
So people be careful when play with randoms and see that something might be off even if you're hosting a match, I got too carried away with gameplay that I totally missed to notice that on my team there was a guy with infinite missiles.

That vanguard was probably just playing with a good build I know that with my vanguard on maps I'm familiar with spawn locations I can get up to triple the second person in terms of kills score. A vanguards Nova can do 100% damage against all three variants of shields and can keep their own shield up at almost all times. The only thing I've ever concerned myself with are Atlas mechs, Banshees, and Phantoms because they have those one hit Melee kills.
I just unlocked the Javelin and man is it bizarre it has a charge up time to fire of like one second, but can see through walls and smoke. Its taking some getting used but its still great.
Edit: Just saw the Missile launcher part. How do you check that?

does promotion give any benefits outside of a stat reset and 5% to the war thing? if not i don't see a point of adding it in
I think he was 8-9 lvl Vanguard so you can't have good build there yet. His kills stats were generally ok, something I would get by using charge+nova at lvl 15+, but no way on that level (took me some time to figure it out sadly).
As for the statistics part, all the kills are displayed for a couple of seconds in the right bottom corner, so when I saw the missile launcher kill message popping next to his name over a dozen times I knew it's time to leave.

Infiltrator + claymore + 90% sneak damage + shotgun choke + shotgun 17.5% bonus = 1 hit most regular enemies on silver lol

Fuck yeah Drell Adept! I like him a lot better than the Human Adept, although he's still not as good as the Asari Adept. Now I just need a good pistol and I'll be set.
How many points do you get by level 20? Is it enough to max out all skills? Also, any opinions on Cluster Grenade's usefulness?

You can max 4 of the 5 skills. The last skill will be empty if you do that though

You lose one point though, because it's pre-allocated. Combat drone on my Engineer seems kind of pointless but I can't get rid of it.

best thing to distract banshees, they just keep trying to teleport towards it but not attack it so it lasts ages

Thanks. I've already got 3 ranks in Cluster Grenade, so I guess I need to pick a skill to leave at rank 5 for now until I get a re-spec from an equipment pack.
You can use a point reset item to get that point back.You lose one point though, because it's pre-allocated. Combat drone on my Engineer seems kind of pointless but I can't get rid of it.
So apparently there's a pretty big mess up on Sony/EA's part -
The PSN version of Mass Effect 3 was patched to 1.02, while the disc version is still at 1.01, resulting in an incompatibility between players on the same platform.
Hopefully this means 1.02 will roll out for the disc version, but so far it seem as though no one even have patch notes as to what 1.02 addresses.

It's totally transparent to me how it's designed to be addictive, but dammit if it isn't working. If I could just buy whatever I wanted I probably wouldn't play the multi this much.

What happens for me is that after a few days of letting it ravage me, I begin to feel a strong aversion towards it. Felt that way with early Modern Warfare games and ES: Oblivion/Fallout 3. Nowadays I am able to resist things more.
I'm getting stuck in so much geometry so often recently in the PS3 version as a Vanguard. I'm falling through floors, going into never ending hallways, and non-stop biotic charging into the atmosphere when no enemies are around.
Additionally, as a side note that is relatively funny. once you get stuck in the geometry, if your team mates go to where you are 'near' the game gives them a damn near instantaneous shield recharge meaning that they can just stand on where the game thinks you are a melee things to death.
Fun times.

I unlocked ultra light materials for SMGs if anybody cares they eventually get to 90% so it becomes a free weapon.

smg is a bit crap though, pistols do a much better job
Will probably be hopping into the multiplayer soon, two questions:
1 - If you promote a character I understand that it takes down all the levels back to 1 for that Class, but do you keep everything else (unlocks, etc)?
2 - Is the bug/glitch in the OP regarding losing unlocks/items still an issue? Was it ever pinned down any further? If it's still happening I'll probably wait for a patch.

I'm having fun though. Had some great matches on Silver with some communicative randoms who knew exactly how to exploit the enemy spawns and such.
Yup. Even better than the N7 Talon.
I'm online for some XBL MP. GT: CAPCPOM if anyone wants to play.

Paladin is an upgraded Carnifex, and very, very awesome. Low on ammo till you can upgrade it though.
120 N7, 20 per class. Infinitely higher if you choose to import your MP characters into SP.

I've seen it happen many times in the demo, and it happened to me once during the demo. But not in the final build.
I don't get why people do this. You have to wait the full 20 minutes to get the resulted points and credits, why not just fucking play the game while that's happening. You know, engage in the gameplay, the whole reason you spent 60 bucks on the game?
I mean, I'm pretty sure these online warriors aren't tending to their infant child while those 20 minutes are going on. Just fucking play.
That said, never happened to me. I've been really blessed with great teammates. Even with mics, people are just doing some good mass effect talk. I don't think I've come across one racist 17 year old kid with too much time on their hands.
That happened to me the very first game in the demo. Haven't seen it since though.
Happened to me once, I just mashed roll and stuff and after a few minutes I could start stuttering around. Then I reached a ammo cache and it was back to normal.
You can matchmake into games that are happening so sometimes you pick geth or whatever and you join at the end of a match that people lost where someone left right as they're loading into lobby probably.
Mostly good matches here too. People with mics are friendly except for one match where there were two guys complaining about people "stealing" their kills. Everyone gets the same XP at the end and you get points for the amount of damage you did. We ended up dying on Wave 9 because they weren't working together and I just left after.
Haven't run into any idlers luckily.
