Horde on Fuel Depot

So last Friday we made it all the way to wave 49 before our entire team was killed.  We hadn’t restarted until that point.  We were ranked 261 at that point (I see we’ve dropped a few spots since then).  I’m pretty sure we couldn’t have beaten all 50 waves on the Fuel Depot map without restarted, we just had some bad luck. We used the strategy I outlined in my previous blog post and it worked really well.  I actually was blown up with my own grenade that I had stuck to a wall inside of the quonset 10 rounds earlier.  Our shields were kicked down by a sire and the sire ran right up next to me and blew up my grenade which I happened to be standing next to (not smart).  Anywho, once the shields were kicked down we didn’t have much of a chance because everything flooded inside of the quonset and we were overrun at that point.  I think it was just bad luck and I’m confident we could beat the horde with the exact same strategy.  Hopefully tonight we can beat the horde (all 50 waves without restarting).  We were able to beat all 50 waves after restarting a few times, but it just isn’t the same as beating it straight through without restarting.  We’ve never beaten all 50 straight through.  The map below shows our positioning.  The people further back will be snipers or torque bows, everyone else will probably use whatever they feel like.  The people closest to the front will need to replant shields and grab grenades.  We’ll probably need to alternate who stands in the back so everyone has a chance to get ammo every few rounds.
