    Hmm, interesting.

    That reminds me, while I was Krogan Vanguarding last night I was hit by the Atlas OHK for the first time the instant I was winding up my first heavy melee.

    If they're at Banshee levels of eagerness to bust that out now that's a bummer.

    It's almost like you shouldn't melee them from the front

    I thought the dude on the other side of the Atlas was keeping him busy!

    they upped the likelyhood of atlases OHKO triggering

    I think they noticed that nobody takes atlases seriously

    there's a thread on the Bio-forums about 1-hit kill animations and what patterns to look for and avoid them.

    basically I think the atlas only does his 1-hit kill right after he does that ground-slam thing.

    Yeah, I had a feeling that was the 'sync-kill' stuff in the patch notes.

    worst possible case I just nuke 'em, and they're great because they're so fat and slow you never miss

    Nothing worse than getting desperate and trying to nuke a couple of banshees, only for them to go "LOL SORRY, WE MAGICALLY TELEPORTED OUT OF THE WAY LOLOL MASS EFFECT FIELDS"

    one game, wave 6 we got surrounded by horrible shit, couple guys bleeding out... so I whipped out a rocket... whoops missed. fired again.. whoops only killed 2 of the 6 banshees or whatever.. fired again.. woo got them all, revived my teammates... who of course then chewed me out for "wasting rockets"... except I can carry 5 of them, buttmunch, so I still have 2 left, and you still have your 2 or 3 or whatever, so fucking chill.....

    two atlases were coming at me from atop some steps and as i fired the missile they both pivoted and it sailed right off into the moon

    i died (of embarrassment)

    If someone chewed me out for any reason after I just dumped a bunch of rocks and revived them, I would straight-up drop the match.

    I don't tolerate that shit.

    He hates combat rolls, thinks squadmates are worse, and that the opponents are too agile

    he doesn't dig the response of the controls, i guess

    he doesn't like how weapons handle, and he doesn't like rolling when he means to run

    AntimatterAntimatter Devo Was Right Gates of SteelRegistered User regular
    he is not constantly charging at all

    he mostly hides behind cover, uses guns, and uses biotics when he sees fit

    if he leaves cover he gets shredded by gunfire and dies

    occasionally i will get into cover when i really mean to run the fuck away from an enemy. said enemy proceeds to introduce numerous projectiles, blunt objects, or biotics into my character.

    usually only happens when in multiplayer tho and the game is lagging.

    I'm always humping walls and crates and shit when I mean to be running away. It's fucking annoying, I think there's probably an internet petition out there to make 2 seperate buttons for sprinting and grabbing cover...

    and you know, if there's an internet petition, it's serious business++

    to be fair, they don't know I can carry 5.
    normally using 3 of them on wave 6 looks pretty dumb.

    I got a lot of laughs on the "complete a gold" weekend when tons of obviously not-gold-veteran players would start whipping out rockets at the first sign of 2 atlas next to each other... on wave 3.

    if there was something I could sign that actually could potentially help to get them to somehow separate sprint and grab cover I would

    easily the worst part of the gameplay

    have them assign shift to something

    lord knows no one uses shift in mp because it doesnt pause gameplay

    Every time someone missiles the pair of atlases clogging up a choke point that I'm busily blowing the fuck out of with biotic explosion I weep inwardly
