[QUOTE=Cone;34545191]Any idea which classes are which races? Cause if I gotta play as some chick with a blue flower for a head just to be an Adept I don't think multiplayer's gonna be seeing me much.[/QUOTE] Human is ALL Quarian is Engineer/Infiltrator Krogan is Soldier/? Asari is Adept/? Turian is Soldier/Infiltrator (I think) I'll try finding this MP group that had all this info and screenshots from BSN, to show you guys this shit.

[QUOTE=Habsburg;34545240]"Haha you had creationists too? Those crazy motherfuckers."[/QUOTE] Oh the banter we'd have with the hanarr- THE FUCKING ENKINDLERS ARE NOT REAL THEY ARE JUST A DELUSION CREATED TO GIVE YOUR LIFE MEANING
[QUOTE=Dumb Dog;34545308]The trailer also showed asari and drell vanguards + turian sentinel[/QUOTE] I appreciate the info, I really gotta find these MP pictures though, had the classes and everything :v:
[QUOTE=Darth_GW7;34545309]Oh the banter we'd have with the hanarr- THE FUCKING ENKINDLERS ARE NOT REAL THEY ARE JUST A DELUSION CREATED TO GIVE YOUR LIFE MEANING[/QUOTE] The Enkindlers were the Protheans right? The Hanar could be a race constructed by the Protheans.
[QUOTE=timmyvos;34545380]The Enkindlers were the Protheans right? The Hanar could be a race constructed by the Protheans.[/QUOTE] Apart from the fact that the protheans were dead long before the hanar existed.
[QUOTE=pruxoid;34542007]For those of you who haven't seen it yet, ME3's achievement list has just been uploaded. The 50 achievements (and their corresponding short descriptions) are pretty vague and nonspecific, but do read at your own risk if you're touchy about spoilers. [url]http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/mass-effect-3/achievements/[/url] Biggest takeaway that I got from the list was that the MP achievements can all be completed in SP. Seems like Bioware has been true to their word when they said MP was 'completely optional'![/QUOTE] Overload Specialist: Overload the shields of 100 enemies. Wasn't there an achievement like this in Mass Effect 2? Come on, let's have something new and interesting.
[QUOTE=Revenge 000;34540580]Do pre-order codes such as Collectors Armour and Weapons pack for ME2 still work?[/QUOTE] Yes.

Come on, let's have something new and interesting.[/QUOTE] What part of stand alone entry eludes you? [quote] Goddamn you two are slow, this has been known for ages.[/quote] That's what happens when you don't actually read posts and just hit the reply button. Not really noteworthy *shrug*
Just a thought: I wonder if it'd be possible (or if there would be any time) to reinstate your Spectre status in ME3 if you chose not to in ME2.
[QUOTE=abracusify;34547053]Just a thought: I wonder if it'd be possible (or if there would be any time) to reinstate your Spectre status in ME3 if you chose not to in ME2.[/QUOTE] You go back to the citadel quickly so it probably depends on the state of your saves. Shepard's Spectre status is pretty irrelevant anyway considering the situation.
[QUOTE=abracusify;34547053]Just a thought: I wonder if it'd be possible (or if there would be any time) to reinstate your Spectre status in ME3 if you chose not to in ME2.[/QUOTE] Why wonder when you can have people reading the script tell you?
Looking at these achievements, I really think they missed a trick with 'Don't Fear the Reapers'.
[QUOTE=Cone;34547102]Why wonder when you can have people reading the script tell you?[/QUOTE] because most people don't want to read the script :shock: :awe:
[QUOTE=27X;34547198]because most people don't want to read the script :shock: :awe:[/QUOTE] Right, because nobody here's read it. The sheer [I][B]audacity![/B][/I]
[QUOTE=Goldenboy;34547183]Looking at these achievements, I really think they missed a trick with 'Don't Fear the Reapers'.[/QUOTE] It'll only be a matter of time before someone makes a Mass Effect 3 music video of the song; [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClQcUyhoxTg[/media] When it comes along, Tali'll end up with a fever, with the only prescription being more cowbell. And purified turian brandy.

Unwavering: Finish all multiplayer maps on Gold or all single-player missions on Insanity. Bring it, might try to do it from level 1, like in ME1. I would like the challenge. Also, good thing there is no multiplayer only achievements. But the whole save your ME3 saves, that is not a good sign. You think they will pull a Halo?

As a first time used of 16x AA in ME2, Let me just say [B]So Smooth[/B] Switching to PC definitively has it's advantages, Even if the controls are wonky
This thread lacks some serious cleavage.

The guard dies standing, not in bed with some xenos. This is insulting.

Personally I feel that the Imperium of Man is a prime example of what mankind SHOULDN'T become; a vile degenerate race of fanatical omniphobic gorillas that sadly have amazing tech. It's less of something to aspire to and more of a warning against xenophobia. (i'd sound like quite the heretic in M41) If it weren't for the Tier 11 Xenophobia and religious fervour that the Imperium professes, i'd probably be a hardcore 40K fan...

Plus the entire point of the Imperium of Man is that it's a Medieval Europe analogue with liberal doses of 1980s stupid-awesome cranked to 11, much like the rest of the WH40k universe.
I can't say I particularly like 40K. Or Warhammer in general.
I'm still gonna have to go with the racist option of sticking with humanity regardless of how we are, then expressing my desire for reform through civil war. Aliens are allies or assets but my loyalty is with my race always. Manifest destiny and all that shit, I reckon we could make a nice impact if we ever find aliens.
[QUOTE=ironman17;34549774]If it weren't for the Tier 11 Xenophobia and religious fervour that the Imperium professes[/QUOTE] Justifiable when every alien race wants to maim, kill, rape, burn, eat, kidnap, and impale all of mankind. On the subject of mass effect, I can't stay focused whenever I play it now, i get distracted by my compulsion to scan everything and never accomplish anything as a result.
Just found out that I might get access to the demo on the 10th because I work at Gamestop. :dance: fuckyeah.jpg One of the very rare perks of working there.

It also ensures there is only war.
