I feel even against Geth it's useless.
Edit : also, I finally got the right pace with a salarian infiltrator and a widow. I was feeling like a god for 11 round and then I saw I was 100K and the second player was at 60k.

Mattock is my favorite AR. It's hard hitting, precise and powerfull. If you're good, you can spam that trigger and empty clip with amazing speed for devastating power.
It's only downside : very short clip. I like to put the extended mag, but all mods are doing fine. Just adjust with your play style : equip kickback mod, and scope for sniper effect, or extended barrel and percing mod for more raw power

It happened to me with the Vindicator. By the end of a very rapid fire it goes downward by the end of the mag.

Yeah that's really odd... whenever I use the Vindicator it kicks up for me, so I needed to train myself to drift the RS downwards when using it (this is with the scope and damage mods). When using the stability mod V it was much more stable, but I still didn't notice a downward kick (haven't used it with Marksman or combined stability with the scope though).
With that said... I <3 the Vindicator.
What platform(s) are you playing on?
UnluckyKate
Member
PS3. Kickback mod V + Scope V + hammer the trigger and the aim will go downward.
I'm yet to try on other guns with Marksman skill.
walbertsmith
Member
Yeah, sounds like lazy coding... instead of stabilizing the aim towards center with increased %, it seems like they just coded "point more downwards". Kinda indicative of the rest of the multiplayer experience in general actually, haha.... sigh.

Argh Premium Spectre packs have given me nothing but crap. 2 Krogan Soldier cards and 2 Revenant upgrades and a whole bunch of character training.
I just got a Talon. Neat, but I don't understand why I would ever use it. Aside from that the only positives from the PSPacks are massive upgrades to my Carnifax and Widow. I am definitely pleased with that.
Speaking of; http://blog.bioware.com/2012/04/05/operation-beachhead/
weird. Stealth introduction of new classes? Premium Spectre Packs make a little more sense in that case.
+25% XP bonus for players this weekend. PS3 included.
It's possible that they changed this weekened's objective while they work on the pack exploit.

Hrm, so is the objective still to beat Reactor on Gold?

I cannot wait for the multiplayer DLC. It's gonna be goooood.
I would be content with them doing this regularly. Last week was objective based, this week is extra XP, next week objective, then another extra XP week, so on and so forth.

That really looks fake to me. Justicar ? Battlemaster ? No.
But I would love to play geth infiltrator, to take down those Hunters. Hunters hunted.

full extraction should give a little money and not just exp, once wave 10 is cleared you might as well all go die to end it quicker.
It sucks a little bit that leveling up is fast for multiplayer if you complete a few good silver runs, more needs to be done with it really.

If that image is real, I wonder what skills the Batarian Soldier/Sentinel will have. I just hope they add something good for the Solider at least. Such a weak class!
Dork Knight

Playing as a Geth against Geths is just going to confuse other players if that's true.
Hmm. I didn't think about that -- haha!

playing with random people sucks :-/ cant even finish bronze challenges. ugh..
Dork Knight
Member
Whoa -- are you serious? Bronze is really, really easy if you know what you're doing. Hell, just take a Krogan Sentinel into Bronze and you can melee the whole map without coming close to dying.
The people you're playing with must *REALLY* be bad.

I dont know what it is today but, i've only been able to finish two bronze challenges out of like five or six. people leave during the game or they dont revive you. its bad. lol I'm not the best player out there but, I hold my own.
Most of the people I played with have a pretty high N7 rank so I was surprised. they must not be taking it that seriously with bronze challenges. :-/
I'll have to do what you suggested. I was trying to level up my solider I just promoted.
Dork Knight
Member
I played a Krogan Sentinel on Bronze and tore up the map with Melee kills since you can practically one-shot every enemy and your health/shield is high enough to give you time to go into rage mode. Really, really fun, but definitely the kind of strategy you can only really use on Bronze.
Wait, so there is no weekend challenge? It's just a +25% XP weekend. Didn't someone post a link in this thread that the challenge was to extract on Gold on Reactor?

Alright cool. Thanks for the tip. Do you have any tips on what weapons to use with a human solider class? Right now Im using the Mattock with the scope and magazine upgrade mods. and the tempest with the magazine upgrade and heatsink mods.
Dork Knight
Member
My advice is switch to a different class -- haha! No, seriously: The Soldier class is arguably the worst in the game, so you're better off choosing something different.
But to answer your question: Mattock is a good gun for the solider to use.

Ah ok, I didn't know that. lol What class do you recommend to use?

Depends on what races you have unlocked. But here's my favorites:
Adept: Asari/Drell -- both are super fun to play...Asari is great for crowd control (stasis bubble) and biotic explosions (warp --> throw) while Drells are great for biotic exploding like mad (pull --> reeve)
Engineer: Human/Salarian -- humans are good for spamming overload (chain it) and incinerate for armored foes. Salarians are invaluable on Gold because of their decoy.
Infiltrators: Salarian/Quarian -- Looove my Salarian infiltrator...cloak --> energy drain --> snipe.
Krogan Sentinel: Melee the FUCK out of everything! Unless you're on Silver or higher. Then play it cool.
I'm sure others can chime in with their favorites.
Try a human sentinel. Max throw first, then warp, don't really worry about tech armor. Use throw on everything and use warp then then throw on tougher(armored) enemies for biotic explosions.
What other weapons/classes do you have aside from the default weapons and humans?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Someone said the guy who leaked that multiplayer DLC is the same guy who often finds out Steam releases before they're announced based on server entries, but I'm pretty sure it's fake. If real I don't see why we wouldn't have screenshots leaked.
I'd love it to be real though. No playable Geth was disappointing, and Batarians would be really neat too.
Try contacting EA support. I did with the first commendation pack and explained the situation (via email) and within 24 hours they had added it to my account.

No point in contacting EA support, I already did it for everybody who hasn't gotten a commendation pack yet. You're not getting it until they fix the multiple pack bug/exploit. The people who took advantage of it got multiple packs, those of us who didn't got nothing. Have a nice day.
But hey, we can go over this every page of the thread instead of just once.

Anyone got some weird lagging issues when playing krogan sentinels(or maybe krogans in general?). 3 times i end up with some weird lag where i cant hurt or kill any target until i get killed, and where for some reason i see the extraction shuttle stuck at the extraction point before we even get to the last wave... its weird.
