Platinum was added with Earth (http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Mas...tiplayer#Earth) and challenges were added in the next one, Retaliation (http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Mas...er#Retaliation)

You know a community is bad when moderators lock a thread because "...this isnt the place to talk about it either seeing as it will get trolled..."
Flare is better with an Infiltrator really.
Use it with the CD of cloak.
Well just did my first Platinum and well...I thought we were fighting Reapers, but then Phantom's started showing up and it's then when I realized shit was about to get real....It wasn't particularly eventful though, all we did was camp inside this little box in Firebase Rio, which actually made it a lot easier than most golds I do.

I finally found out why so many of my gold and platinum games does not count towards map mastery.
Appearently when you do a hazard map it only counts for hazard waves gold/platinum completed and not the map itself.

I have still not done a single Platinum game because I can only play in random groups and I really don´t think that they are successful on platinum.
BTW: Why does it always look so simple when you watch vids of platinum soloers? Lame ... at least it is definitely NOT simple (was killed in wave 1 already )
I tend to camp around that area on that map anyway, as it's easy to control the spawns and long LoS as they come up and loads of cover/ammo, but sucks just standing there with a volus :\
I always just run around while they camp there if I join a game in progress there, and quit if it's in the lobby.
BTW: Which packs would you buy if you want to get level 5 gear upgrades (like the warfighter one)? I still have most of them at level 2 or 3.
Normal Spectre Packs or PSP? or even the new ones (Arsenal pack) or even Vet packs?
Spectre for Silver ones, Reserves for gold I think...
I was 10 seconds from finnishing a fucking solo platinum and then a banshee did her ultimate attack that grabbed me in stealth through a wall with her back turned!
God dammit im so pissed off right now!
