NihilCredo posted:Has anyone found some kind of "you should really know this" piece of gameplay information? Like how in ME2 you had to do everything before the Collector ship since afterwards you only had time for one mission before the crew would die? So far, just do all the available side missions (or whichever ones you feel like doing) before each priority mission and it looks like you're clear.

So officially I can choose entirely what happened in ME2 right? I played it on PC but I feel like playing ME3 on 360, but I would like to remake my old saved game almost 100%.

Is there any gamepad support in the PC version? Not having that would be ridiculous.

I can't stop playing this game, I even moved to Hong Kong yesterday to play it early. I managed to avoid spoilers so I can say it is pretty good so far.... combat seems harder than what was in ME2 which is awesome. Holy Cheese fucked around with this message at 17:06 on Mar 6, 2012 |

Man, Vanguard is more fun than ever in this game. The checklist is now: 1) Charge 2)Are there enemies still alive at a Short range -> Nova -> Go to 1 b Mid range -> Shoot them with your sniper-pistol -> Go to 1 c Long range -> Duck into cover, shoot with your sniper-pistol -> Go to 1 d No enemies -> Go find some more, then 1 And it just feels so drat powerful. Granted, I'm not playing on high difficulty settings but there's nothing like getting into a fight with an Atlas+support, charging then novaing the Atlas, charging at a group of enemies and novaing, then charging back into the Atlas and novaing the hell out of it all over again. The only times I've been killed have been when I've been caught on a piece of cover I wanted to sprint past/over and a turret has opened up on me. Even turrets are no threat to a charge/nova combo.

In an act I can only dub a miracle, my game was delivered earlier than anything else I've ever had delivered. It got at my house at 10AM, usually they deliver around 6PM. The problem is, I'm stuck at work and won't be able to play until about 6 anyway. It's there, and it's taunting me.

Just a quick note, I am able to buy armor at Citadel shops that I didn't actually have in ME2, so it seems that if you didn't get much DLC, have no fear! They've greatly improved the variety of what the armors do as well. The Inferno armor increases power damage and cooldown, and the Blood Dragon give power damage and shields, which is what I'm going with. Don't give a gently caress about the rest since I'm an engineer, but I saw melee damage and health and poo poo if you wierdos care about that

How many tracks does the OST have? There's stuff missing on the one uploaded to youtube, there's not even any Citadel music. Also does anything happen at all if I romanced Thane in ME2? Anything major happen if I save or destroy the collector base? Halfway done with my ME2 playthru I'll be importing and unless something really cool/creepy happens from keeping the base I'm just gonna destroy it. Always regretted saving it.

I thought I saw someone say you can take off the helmets now, is this correct? I didn't use any of the DLC armors in ME2 because of that reason.

I'm relatively sure this is not the case. I just did a regular side mission and I got an email that said that the bomb had gone off on Tuchanka. The weird part is I think my game glitched as I was able to do the mission right after.

I am loving the gently caress out of this game. I am known to be pleased easily, but poo poo, this is basically all I had hoped for, with a few tiny things that aren't 100% perfect. I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone who enjoyed 1 and 2 and to action RPG fans in general.

Dolphin Fetus posted:How many tracks does the OST have? There's stuff missing on the one uploaded to youtube, there's not even any Citadel music. Collector base: keeping it makes it easier to get one of the endings, and visa versa. You should still be able to get whichever ending you want though by.. uh playing well and war assets and meters and stuff. I don't believe it matters all that much in the end.

Just got the Prothean (do we need to spoil this still?) and man people weren't kidding about him being a huge dick. Glad the Wrex/Zaeeed role of the party rear end in a top hat is filled. Also glad that his mission did bring back all the other stuff related to his race in the first game, including Vigil.

Also, you can engage with it outside of nova distance while charge recharges.

I love going to the store, buying a game, coming home and not being able to play it. This loving Origin service is beyond stupid. I've never heard of it before, yet it says my email address is already in the system? And when I request them to send my password to me none arrives. So I cant install a game I bought and have physical copies of? Is this thing loving serious?

Romance spoilers: I found the Kaidan/Manshep 'before the final battle' scene, if anyone's interested. Spoilers, obviously. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAoWkEuQzTw  Much better done than I'd been expecting (by Bioware standards.) I wonder if Fox News is going to pick up on this.

Welcome to the exciting world of modern PC gaming. Where everyone is a pirate until proven... well, you're just a pirate. Always. vvvv - The worst part about this character creator (which can be said about several other character creators) is that you really can't tell what your character is actually going to look like. The creator is much darker than most normal settings and the angles really don't allow you to see some features properly. I had to restart and remake my face because my features didn't turn out right (because I couldn't see jaw/cheek depth properly even when turning it to the side).

You can get 200% bonus recharge rate with a shotgun with one of the weight bonus powers. I think the alternative is just some squad powerup. Why would you want that when you could have a shotgun.

Do you have any other EA accounts? Everything is basically linked under one thing now. Important question. Does this game feature Shephards Mom?

Your Origin account is also your EA account and also you Bioware account. Check your spam. Yeah it's pretty lovely, but I've kinda gotten used to it since it's having similar problems steam used to have, and I love the gently caress out of steam.

Just beat Mass Effect 3, the journey to get to the end is amazingly fun and well done. The ending though ends up being an absolute troll and gently caress you to the players. Won't say much more than that. Just want to stress though that this in no way hurts ME3, this is still one of the best games i've played this generation. Bioware really went all out on this one.
