I'm mean. Been playing through the games w/ my gf. Just finished the first one. So I imported and started #2 for her. Then turned it off when the title screen came up. "wait, what happened?!?!" "you'll have to wait and see." "what happened to shep?" "he's dead" "how can he be dead!?! he's the main character" "he's dead" "but he's on the cover" "he's in space, with no air, and getting sucked into the gravity of a planet. he's dead" "" hahahah

So Kett guns use plasma, huh? Wonder if the Andromeda races even know about the Mass Effect or they use Mass Effect technology in a new way? Edit: Actually didn't the Prothean rifle shoot plasma beams? Edit 2: Checked the wiki; the Prothean rifle shot particle beams, whatever that means SgtSteel91 fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Jan 24, 2017 |

Cythereal posted:Ironically, the art book for ME2 reveals that the Normandy 2's lighting was supposed to be the opposite. The Normandy 2 was envisioned as being dark, cramped, unpainted, and all around a thoroughly unpleasant ship to live on, sacrificing the amenities of the first Normandy for the sake of raw power. They definitely got the raw power at the cost of safety aspect correct if you didn't install whatever the upgrade was that stops the drive core turning into a bug zapper in the final assault.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot about those Maybe that's how we'll see those weapons in Andromeda with no Geth; you research plasma weapons and can get those same models but the names will have Geth filled off SgtSteel91 fucked around with this message at 07:09 on Jan 24, 2017 |

I'm driving around what seems like endless hills on an airless heavy metal planet in Elite Dangerous and wishing I was in the Mako from ME1 because it would handle the slopes and tumbles down craters better.

So how long do you guys think it'll be until they delay this game? And for how long? I'm guessing an extra three months, and then maybe when it's about a month away from release.Kurieg posted:The most recent combat trailer? The painful face animations?

If Dishonored 2 taught me anything it's that it will launch on time and only half the people playing will be mostly issue free. Maybe three months after release they'll get it stable & have smooth frame rates.

Fuuuuck no. The concept of overtime is practically heresy in the AAA game industry, especially when you're working twelve hour days for four months straight.

It's still $10 to access what previously was offered to players as a free demo in ME3, which is a pretty scummy tactic that people shouldn't support.

Was the demo of ME3 ten hours of the singleplayer and as much of the multiplayer that you wanted to play prior to launch? I'm not defending there being no demo, but Origin Access/EA Access comes with a lot more than 'lol mass effect demo'.

The ME3 demo was one SP mission, which was whatever, and MP with only Ceberus as an enemy faction and two maps unlocked. It was, however, fun as hell even in its limited state and was a major part of my decision to buy ME3.

Veotax posted:Was the demo of ME3 ten hours of the singleplayer and as much of the multiplayer that you wanted to play prior to launch? And as mentioned, if you were to pick up EA/Origin Access, you'd be paying a tiny bit less for the game than if you bought it from them directly. (In addition to the free vault games, you also get -10% off purchases on Origin. ) Buying the game directly from Origin: 60usd. Buying the Ea Access/Origin Access: 5usd Buying the game directly from Origin, as an Access user: 54usd. If anything, it just seems like a way to get people to try out EA/Origin Access. They're kinda paying you 1USD to try the game out early. (And make it more likely you buy it directly from them instead of a third party vendor. ) I recently grabbed Access to play through Dead Space 1 and 2, which I get for free through the vault, so getting early access to ME is just an added bonus. e: As far as scummy game dealings go, I feel this is a pretty benign one. Allowing people to play both SP and MP a lot, a week before launch is kind of amazing compared to how Bethesda nowadays has reviews locked down until after people start buying their nonfunctional games.

SgtSteel91 posted:So Kett guns use plasma, huh? The geth plasma shotgun actually launches toroidal inductors that shatter on impact, and the plasma is created in an instant when the electricity arcing between them ionizes the air. That's why they fire projectiles so slow that you have to lead your target at any distance.

Because I know all of you, like the fine folks on the Bioware fan forums, have been literally counting the seconds of screen time for each Ryder twin thus far*, you'll be happy to know that Tom Taylorson (Scott Ryder's VA) has confirmed the next trailer will be Sara-centric. *Scott 4 minutes, 33 seconds; Sara 3 minutes, 20 seconds. Sara has also spoken 67 words compared to Scott's 84. quote:Winter @the_Masquerade7 quote:VOLTIAC Gaming @volti4c
