Deeper into the Ruins is such a great mission. Also the new Firebase Aqua map is pretty as hell and the Roekar are nice variety even if they're just recoloured outlaws.

Dr. Abysmal posted:There's a Deeper Into the Ruins APEX mission right now that gives out a free pack with a guaranteed Ultra Rare if you complete it (I got the Angara Exemplar). Since it's on Bronze you'll be able to do it in your sleep. This is the kind of stuff they should have been doing with these missions all along, give a better reward for playing them than 10 mission funds. Not only that, it's 'at least 1 Ultra Rare'. My friend and I both got 2 (I got Human Kineticist and the P.A.W.).

Bought a Reserves pack, got an Ultra Rare... Piranha IV. With 4 UR characters that I don't even have, it gives me a Piranha. Welp, back to Killing Floor 2 for me!

Still loving it, but I would like to see a free-to-play option released to draw more people into the game. Just let people use the MP and the APEX app for free, but don't allow them to spend the Credits they accumulate unless they get the game proper. Even if they never buy Andromeda points, they still get to use 6 different classes while getting the bonus packs given out as Rewards, and the paid players would serve as walking ads for the full version with their cool alien classes.

yea this game seems to be in a good place right now and will hopefully only get better, assuming the player base remains steady enough for ea to make a bit of money. I've had a lot of fun with it since the latest update.

I've had a lot of fun with it since the latest update. As someone who just bought the game after pretty much only playing multiplayer in ME3, that's pretty good to hear! And being a vanguard with a jetpack is amazing. I'll probably never play the single player, but so far multiplayer is totally worth $30.

Is the multiplayer worth getting this game for $20-$30? It doesn't have to be ME3 I just need something to get my fix.

I played a bunch last night and surprisingly the PS4 playerbase seems to have picked way up, I was getting full games all night. Then I bought two Premium packs back to back and got Avenger S 1 and Charger S I, while I still have many Gold guns at levels 1-3 and still missing four UR characters. I'm never gonna get to be a Vanguard Asari am I

precision posted:I played a bunch last night and surprisingly the PS4 playerbase seems to have picked way up, I was getting full games all night. Unless they haven't been implemented on the PS4 yet, the Reserve packs are Premium packs with the drop table skewed towards class cards. You'll occasionally grab a UR/Gold weapon out of them, but I have each UR char sitting at rank 1 currently, and I think my SalOp is at 4.

Those Reserve Packs in ME3MP were a trap IIRC, they were found to not be working right or something and also I don't think Reserves and the other one have the "higher chance for an ultra rare" - it's certainly missing from the ingame description. I'll stick to rolling the dice on 50k packs, at least until I max Uncommon weapon mods.

Of all the things to copy from ME3, they copy and paste the RNG idiocy of the Reserve/Arsenal packs...

Gambling to unlock anything is loving stupid. Just give me in-game currency to spend against unlocks I want and don't be so stingy with it that I have to convert real money.

The Reserve/Arsenal really should work more like "If you get a Rare or UR from this pack, it WILL be a character/gun if possible".

I think the key word there is "intended"  But that's good to know, so Arse/Res packs still have the 10% UR chance?

My biggest complaint is that they copied just half the rng gacha model. The lovely half. Like almost every mobile gacha game I've played combines gambling with daily bonuses, special events, special draws, etc... so that even if you're gambling for pixels there's constantly fun things to look forward to in the future and rewards for just remembering the game. The gambling in MEA is just so dry and bland.

An upside of the random drop system is that all these game pieces you unlock are actually playable (or intended to be so), and thus the system nudges you into trying new things you might not have based on how they looked in the shop. Combining random with a store might still be better, of course.

ME3's multiplayer also had that -- weekend events that handed out some of the special N7 weapons as completion rewards. They also had special mission objectives/changes, although they've rolled that into the APEX missions.

This week's APEX mission is pretty cool, it's 11 waves versus the Kett. Wave 6 has those Kett Krogans! Also bring a biotic/tech, the weapon modifier is -50% weapon damage (but 200% weak point bonus). There's also a new pistol armor mod.

Man, this APEX mission would be so much better if the credits actually scaled properly for how long the match takes. Takes like twice as long as a normal match with all of the objective waves you get, and you only receive just over what a normal match would pay out. A shame, because it's a blast to actually play.

Am I missing something with the N7 Valiant? or does it just do bugger all damage? It is rank I though. How do people build the Salarian Operator? I'm thinking complete support skipping the damage tree.

Flipswitch posted:Am I missing something with the N7 Valiant? or does it just do bugger all damage? It is rank I though. Its not as good as Vanquisher until you get loads of cards for it, but good luck with that since its ultra rare. I still use Vanquisher/Hornet on basically every character. Most of the other guns in the same class usually have some dealbreaker. They are either stupidly heavy and thus bad for cooldowns or they have crap accuracy/range or worse damage unless you grind out ultra rare cards. For Salarian Operator I just leave Overload at 1 point, max Invasion, Max Shield Boost and then in the passives I try to beeline for power effect durations, which I think is rank 4 in both. I haven't got both yet because I don't have the cards. Then I just try to stay near my teammates and shield boost them when they get hit. I use Invasion on heavy armour or trash mobs which are not being targeted by my bros. Don't shoot your Invasion patient zeros either. Just let them run around spreading space aids to everything.

Cheers bud, I'll give that a go. Also this game is a buggy piece of shite, get into lobby and my character just doesn't appear so I can't ready up to actually play. Had to relog in and out several times to get it to work.

So both the daily challenges for biotic mastery and tech mastery seem completely broken - I get exactly zero progress on them even when playing the matching characters. Has anyone made progress on them? Are they keyed to the wrong abilities?
