Amish Ninja posted:I know pretty much any build you could conceive of works fine in this game, but I'm wondering what people have found to be fun. Right now I'm rocking a pretty spastic style as a sentinel with charge, energy drain, incinerate, a cryo melee and shotgun. Tech armor doesn't work quite like it did in the earlier games (I think it gives you DR when your shields are down?), but overall I'm enjoying high mobility burst damage. Does anyone have experience with explorer? Seems like an easy one to get into and the class bonuses look good, especially later in the game with higher ranks in it. Are there any major glitches with the biotic blink ability? Tech Armor is now an "always on" power that gives you flat Damage Reduction and other perks at higher levels. I'm rolling with Overload/Incinerate/Nova still, just unlocked the Explorer Profile which seems really good.

black.lion posted:What's everyone's favorite build for pure biotic space wizardry? I'm currently on pull / throw (with primer evo) / lance (no cd w shields for ammo) but I'm wondering if I should replace throw with singularity The truth is that the ideal Adept build is Vanguard But Better. Run Annihilation with shield restore and radius boost, Barrier with shields on kill, shield powered Lance and Charge. Constantly get in peoples faces and point blank Lance to create enormous explosions via Biotic Echoes. Be a human bunker buster. Vanguard is just a shittier version of this

Wait do the puzzles that let you into the vault get substantially harder after Eos? Also I have a suspicion you might be able to get the first vault on hab7 if you wait to get SAM then pull a "no gently caress you dad" and go to the vault instead of going directly to him for backup, but I didn't think of it until I already met up with him and it was too late, you can't land again.

sudoku tips: it's about the process of elimination find a section/row/column at the start that is already mostly filled, put in the only runes that fit, find a row/column/section that is now more filled thanks to what you put and do the same thing, repeat until finished Fojar38 fucked around with this message at 23:23 on Mar 24, 2017 |

also heard people talking about this game irl at a loving tim hortons today and its true that no publicity is bad publicity was basically "hey there's this new game called mass effect andromeda and the internet is blowing up about it. check this out" *shows their friend something on their phone* "huh, is it not out yet?" "no its out now" "are you going to get it?" "yes"

Captain Oblivious posted:I really enjoy playing Ryder mostly Logical/Professional, using Emotional when people need some realtalk, and VERY occasionally Casual for people who badly need to be mocked/insulted/told to gently caress off (Sloane/Prefect). I have the game but I haven't played it yet, but I was planning on going logical/professional when on a mission or meeting important people, and emotional/casual when on the ship chilling with the crew unless there was any serious talk, and, like you, casual when taking to insufferable npcs to take the piss out.

Man I'm sorry to admit it, but it's me, I'm the guy who loves the new Galaxy map and slowly travelling between beautifully rendered planets and scanning stuff. I really like that the anomalies in this one are actually rendered and visible. E: The nomad mining can suck a dick though, who thought THAT was a good idea. Also I cranked the graphics to 11 using the trick that's been posted in here and it looks good but it does seem to make some shadows, and the lines around the forward stations behave a little weird. Hope it's something they can fix in a patch because it's a gorgeous game. Professor Beetus fucked around with this message at 23:36 on Mar 24, 2017 |

Has anyone encountered problems starting a new single player campaign after you've already tried the single player once? This is on PS4 if it makes a difference, but after playing through the first planet I wanted to re-roll my Ryder, so I started a new character, but when I wake up from cryosleep, there are all these weird clipping glitches (like my Ryder is sitting within another character as the Asari doc checks us out), and there are characters in the sick bay talking about events from the first planet mission (like remnants of my prior game). And then when I get to the part where you're supposed to use your scanner to examine an electrical fault, I can't access my scanner -- the prompt never shows up and I can't pass the event. This happened twice last night as I tried to restart. I'm hoping just deleting all my save games will let me start a new game and have it work properly. Anyone encountered this upon starting up a new game?

My favorite drack moment so far: running around eos putting up sensors or whatever. Drack takes off running. I can see in the distance there's a little critter, and he runs up to it and stomps it. Then he gives this battle cry.

Drifter posted:Addison won the bad writing lottery. yeah. tann and kesh are more interesting. tan is paul ryan type wonk who probaly deep down thinks he is doing the right thing but he is giant bigot and willing to gently caress over anyone who doesnt bend the knee to him and such. kesh is young krogan looking to try to start her species on the right foot and show that they are good and cool, she is basically a younger wrex while drak is a old grunt who has kinda moved past alot of the poo poo because its out of his hands and he is too old for this poo poo and just wants to gently caress poo poo up for fun for his remaining years.

The puzzles aren't hard in any sense of the word they're just tedious. I just don't need them in my game about talking and/or shooting aliens game. They also hurt my brain cuz i dun think so gud, wut? e: Also the Drack emails are really funny, just got one where he's thinking of replying to a nigerian prince scam about a matriarch that died on transit.

I got the AVP perks that give you free poo poo every hour, then just minimized the game and popped it up every hour or so for a motherload of crafting materials and money. I don't think this is how they intended the system to be used.

One thing I've wondered about since I started the game, and which hasn't been mentioned at all, is why there is no news from the milky way. The initiative appearantly uses some weird geth technology to scope out the andromeda galaxy before making the trip, but shouldn't there be some form of ftl communication? I just read that appearntly ME explains instantaneous communication with comm buoys that need to be placed every 150.000km, as well as the mass effect portals, but couldn't the milkyway people just send some miniature comm ships after the arcs in certain intervals? I realise that the answer is "because it's a game" but I dunno, having people hear about the reapers and stuff in the milky way would have given it some great extra dimension.

There's an email somewhere on a terminal in the docking bay/hydroponics area that states some beacon was activated indicating the arrival of the Andromeda Initiative people, but no one in the Milky Way has responded
