Ugh, EDI. In a game full of gratuitous lady butts she is the worst of all and I was very disappointed when her new body turned up. The amount of fanservice piled up on her is just gross and creepy and I just try to pretend she doesn't exist. Also her model is surprisingly poorly done and she's got texture errors all over. Blegh. Everything else, though, I'm super hyped about. Geth Juggernaut? Krogan Warlord with biotic hammer? Put me in, coach.

Psion posted:wait what my Eagle X posting radar just went off Congrats dude, you have a serviceable caster gun! It has it's own niche in the pistol category as some weird SMG/babby Carnifex hybrid. As far as I can tell, the Valkyrie has no such niche and is objectively worse than the high tier ARs. being an eagle fan itt is like the equivalent of the dudes who don't hate the endings in the story thread

I'm sure the Geth Prime will just scale all the gun models up to his size, but it would be much better if you could give him tiny pistols, and his fingers were too big to pull the trigger.

I'm curious as to the power combos for these dudes. Also wondering about the limitations the big characters might have, the krogan warlord leads me to believe you won't be able to give him weapons.

I know the Eagle isn't the terrible worst of the worst it used to be but of all the promo guns it's probably the one I have the least use for, so I make fun of it. also I put a Valkryie II on a TGI and decided to see what I could make of it and as long as you can consistently aim for headshots it tears through Cerberus on gold pretty quickly. I don't think that makes it great, because it has some pretty significant downsides, but it could be made great fairly easily. Make it so the second shot always hits exactly where the first does and you're talking.

As soon as I hit 12 million credits they announced DLC. I think there must have been some flag on me. Also looks like they used that guys idea for an operation in Robin Sachs memory. That's a pretty cool thing.

It would also be like a real life AN-94 Abakan, which is all the more reason to like it. Fun fact: the Locust's Codex description seems like it was inspired by the Abakan as well. Too bad it's utter crap in ME3

The amount of Rare Gear I still have at low levels is ridiculous (hell I still haven't even gotten several of them), for God's sake release a "Supplemental Pack" or something that "has a higher chance for Gear and Weapon Mods".

Welp, I'm all giddy now over this DLC announcement. This ME3 multiplayer thing blows my mindgrapes every time they announce something new for it. I gifted this to a buddy for Christmas and he just started playing last night, it's almost hard to remember what multi was like before my manifest got all pimped out (though I'm still nowhere near some of you). I'm down to game tonight if I'm not waltzing through bronze with my buddy. I've played with a good chunk of folks from the thread and use a microphone in addition to having access to Ventrilo or TeamSpeak if anyone uses those over the built-in chat. Origin is teh_DK (manifest). Also just noticed this:  ^re: gear and weapon mods I've been pretty successful with the regular Spectre Packs. I've unlocked a lot of new mods and gear. Maybe that is because I can buy them more frequently, though.

Gonna put racing stripes on an EDI, gently caress all yall. We know the Juggernaut is a Soldier now, but what about the others? Would the EDIs be Infiltrators or Engineers? What about the Raptors? So many questions and it's less than a week away!Burning Mustache posted:Jeez, no wonder we don't see Turian females on the frontlines more often, looks like they're about to snap in half at the touch of a mild breeze. Well, Turians are bird-people after all. Have you seen that concept art of a naked Turian? They're all super skinny, the armor for males is just a little better at hiding it.

Sincere apologies to whoever Buck Rodgers is on Origin, I'm cold-ridden and was playing with a few off-site friends of mine who probably would have been better on Silver  Well, if the Juggernaut's old power is the Geth Turret and one of his new powers is a health/shield restore (going off what Fagnan's given us) the third power's probably going to be either direct damage of some kind or something like Fortification, just to make him a complete brick (...geth-brick?) wall.

Stuff like "Torching the bastards!" I swear on a stack of Bibles that I actually heard him say something like that on my last ME2 run. I remember it because it was the only time I'd ever heard it. So maybe it was (partially?) fixed for the PS3 port?

I know, it's just, in that pic, the upper torso / chest piece looks like it's the same exact one as the male models', when it probably should be a tad less bulky. The angle from the side isn't helping either, I guess.

Dammit Bioware I am totally going to waste $15 on the SP DLC. Wait, so what classes do we think the additions are going to be? I'm assuming Asari-esque duplicates are okay--like, I can't imagine what the Geth Juggernaut would be besides a Soldier given the escription. Adept or Sentinel...? Also PC people, I'm on the list, but add me on Origin and explode everything with me and LogicNinja. (I am totally up for helping out newer players by playing lower than Gold/reviving 50x on Gold. He is probably just going to Charge everything.) Stroop There It Is fucked around with this message at 04:20 on Sep 18, 2014 |

I switched to PC from Xbox after playing ME3. I never played the multiplayer back on the 360. Is the multiplayer good enough to warrant a purchase of ME3 for PC? I'm in a gaming glut right now while I wait for Bioshock Infinite.
