Do you need 6 or 7 Andromeda Initiative videos to qualify for the helmet? I thought it was 7, with the last unlocking recently, but I can only see 6 available.

The ship is called Tempest this time so they probably changed the name of the gun because of that.

Too bad it's not a Krogan duelist. A Krogan duel would just be two Krogan taking turns beating each other about the head with fusion hammers until one of them dies.

Can I have both vanguard charge AND a jetpack? Because if so, all sins are forgiven

i think a vanguard, as a biotic, gets biotic zoops and zorps that function in place of the jetpack

The jetpack is baseline, you just have it all that time regardless of whatever else you're doing.

Oh, right yeah, if you're a biotic you get the full functionality of the jetpack but it manifests as hovering with your space wizard powers.

I think you still use the jetpack for jump jets and hovering, but while the tech classes and soldier use maneuvering jets to shoot around corners and stuff, the biotics use short range teleports and poo poo.

The Falcon was the Systems Alliance assault-grenade-kitchensink-launcher-rifle thing. The Scorpion was a Salarian pistol with sticky grenades... but that's not to be confused with the shotgun that just poo poo explosives everywhere when you charged it up. Venom, maybe? loving awesome gun.

MP had so many cool guns I get them confused.

everything so far (i.e. no dedicated servers) indicates that will indeed be the case.

Do we know if you can actually have a melee weapon out and equipped or does it just affect the generic melee attack?

I kinda hate that name.

Like, actual low key loathing.

It's not just that it's a bad fantasy name, but it doesn't fit. These aren't ancestral weapons, or ancient religious artifacts, or anything of the sort. This is a rusty old shotgun you duct-taped to a grenade launcher.

I mean, there's nothing wrong with naming your fancy rifle, but even with all the star-warsing, Mass Effect is science fiction of the sort where the use of weapons is fundamentally pragmatic. This is your rifle, there are many like it. Naming it is a personal thing, and done with some degree of humor, or at least recognition of the absurdity. (You will give your rifle a girl's name because this is the only pussy you people are going to get. )

That kind of name feels very out of place, even for an asari. And no other species even gets that close to having an excuse.

Don't be too quick to judge. Here’s the twist, and there is a twist: They show it. They show all of it. Because what’s the one major thing missing from action games these days? …Full penetration. Guys, Bioware's gonna show full penetration and they're gonna show a lot of it! I mean, we’re talking, you know, graphic scenes of Ryder really going to town on this hot asari lab tech. From behind, 69, anal, vaginal, cowgirl, reverse cowgirl, all the hits, all the big ones, all the good ones.
