[QUOTE=Goldenboy;34805738]New Nvidia drivers just got released with a bunch of ME3 optimizations.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, just got the notification a few minutes ago. Odd how this is the first time my computer actively told me there's a new driver for my card, I usually have to hunt for them myself.

Harassing people you disagree with is a dick move, and I don't agree with it. But she has and maintains a horrible, negative attitude towards video game writing. Go get a book, television or film gig, but leave the game industry to people who actually want to write in the medium.
Just played the multiplayer for the first time, it's really weird. Also, does everyone get the Asari Adept when they start?
no, it's random

Only if you're using SLI, from what I can tell from the [url=http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/win7-winvista-64bit-295.73-whql-driver-uk.html]295.73 release notes[/url].
I just did the side mission in ME2 where you find the info on Cerberus doing Rachni experiments or w/e on their dead undercover agent, the data was said to be seriously damaging to Cerberus reputation. Didn't send it to the Alliance or Cerberus, but kept it for myself. Says it'll take a year to decrypt.
Just in time for ME3?

Y'know, I honestly think the community should feel ashamed of this. Bad writing aside, that is absolutely no call to torment someone like that.
So the last time two mostly unarmed Vanguards attacked Cerberus, they got so mad they EMP'ed a little part of Earth, which just happens to be where both of the players of the Vanguards are
[sp]if you can't be arsed by my rambling, me and a friend both rolled vanguard and then the power went out for the entire part of town that we both live in[/sp]

[QUOTE='[Green];34805572']Yo, I'm a newcomer to Mass Effect. Since I'm about to play it for the first time, is there anything specific I should know?[/QUOTE]
No not really, assuming you're starting with the first one. Just have fun and shoot aliens :v:
Guys, guys, crack idea here. What if we get a mass effect RTS, that took place during the first contact wars?

And give some a good dicking
[QUOTE=Jackald;34806043]I agree, but still she has a kind of... pugnacious personality.
Correct response:
"I realise that some people may not like my writing or what I do or my opinions, and i'm sorry about that, but I promise i'm going to try my best to write to the standard you guys expect, after all at the end of the day it's you guys who will be receiving whatever I write."

Yeah, I'll grant you that. Still, this whole debacle is the fault of BSN (originally) and Reddit for their "This woman is the cancer that is killing Bioware."
It's just...the whole situation is just disgraceful, really.

yea that wasn't the best way to handle it, also getting another bioware employee to tell people to go fuck themselves wasn't smart either
both sides made mistakes here
I think her main mistake was suggesting a fast-forward button
Who cares about her personality. She can be a total fucking bitch and as long as the writing is good who gives a damn.
[QUOTE=Broguts;34806052]Guys, guys, crack idea here. What if we get a mass effect RTS, that took place during the first contact wars?[/QUOTE]
bleh it would end up like Halo Wars
which was exceptionally shitty, story-wise and gameplay-wise
[QUOTE=The DooD;34806243]I think her main mistake was suggesting a fast-forward button[/QUOTE]
Aside from that, even giving attention to the people who say things like this didn't do anything else other than add fire to the fuel.
And that vagina argument was just plain silly.
make a mass effect strategy game like the civilization series
that'll turn some heads
Bored with photoshop open + being inspired by the ME3 CGI trailer.

[QUOTE=Semaru;34800620]AP Ammo I think, because on normal difficulty biotic barriers are pretty rare[/QUOTE]
Warp is better. Warp ammo works on ALL things and works wonders against barriers. You can read the description itself it says it works against biotic barriers, armor and health. It's probably the best ammo in the game.
idk I like AP rounds because i can just unload on guardians and shoot enemies through walls
yeah warp is awesome
Anyone else had a game where four Atlas mechs came at once and no one in the team had any missiles left?
And darn is the turret a killing machine if it catches you off-guard.

I do think she's gotten a unnecessary amount of vitrol thrown in her direction because she's female and hurr hurr females don't do videogames. I think the problems with DA2 is more to do with the company as a whole than just one person.

Pretty much all of Dragon Age 2's problems can be traced back to the fact that it was forced out the door after only 15 months of development. Origins was under development for the best part of 3 years and that still had problems (notably the HORRID Fade segment in the mages guild and the memory leaks in Orzammar).
I disagree with her "fast forward button" idea, just playing the game on easy should be enough if you want to breeze through it. Though I also dislike the option to skip dialouge and would prefer if you could pause cutscenes so you don't miss anything.
The shit BSN and Reddit did was just uncalled for though.
Hamburger Helper has a bad attitude but I can't really recall anything she's actually ruined
DA2 was EA, and Orzammar (which was written by her) was pretty good in DA:O

There'd be only three space battles and the entire ground campaign would consist of you trying to dodge asteroids being dropped on your infantry squads :v:
