I haven't pirated a game for quite a few years but EA sure is making it hard for me to stay that way. I'm going to pay anyway.
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;34927798]Well that was a much better video. I really like the new Normandy.[/QUOTE] r.i.p mordin's lab
I asked for ME3 as a late Christmas present. I also asked my parent's not to ship it to me since I felt it would distract my studies. I'm starting to regret that.
[QUOTE=JeanLuc761;34927797]Not particularly. I'm keeping busy with homework, ME2, Skyrim and FFXIII.[/QUOTE] Lucky you, I have no work besides projects and games. :v:
[QUOTE=mercurius;34927461] A different version of the Normandy SR2A tour, done by CVG. Seriously you need to watch this, they even blurred out spoilers and don't show [sp]EDI all that much.[/sp][/QUOTE] Really like it, it feels like a military vessel now. The ME2 Normandy felt sort of... sterile and more like a luxury ship rather than a stealth frigate.

[QUOTE=dumbidiotretard;34927901]r.i.p mordin's lab[/QUOTE] they so should have brought Mordin back as your onship scientist, but retired as a squadmate. Then if he died in Me2 you just get some generic alliance tech guy
[QUOTE=SomeDumbShit;34927945]:Brofist: Killing time with FFXIII too.[/QUOTE] :brofist: Gotta beat the bastard. Unrelated: Now that the PC version of ME3 has been leaked, snippets of information are being revealed and one in particular excites me. I've been informed that instead of being in damnable .pcc format, ALL TEXTURES are out in the open in standard .dds format, which means I won't have to bother with texmod this time around and can edit textures freely. Fuck yeah? Fuck yeah.
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;34927798]Well that was a much better video. I really like the new Normandy.[/QUOTE] I really dislike how in that video, there's empty room after empty room. How many times did he say "Yeah you can go in here once and then there's no point"

[QUOTE=doommarine23;34927710]Anyone else feel like the days are slowly going by? :suicide:[/QUOTE] Indeed, it's just over a week left until release. For me it's about 2 weeks until my copy arrives from Amazon, so until then i'll be playing in the demo's multiplayer, likely circulating to my newly-acquired Salarian Infiltrator (called Gordon Freeman, no less). I played my last match as Robocop the Human Engineer (lvl 20 max out), and now it's time to try out another class. Thing is, i've found a bit of a thing concerning the levelling; as in if I reach Level 20 with my Human Sentinel, my Turian Sentinel is Level 20 too. For me this is a bit of a bummer, since I like levelling my different characters, and I was hoping that i'd be able to start from scratch with a new character of the same class, increasing the amount of time I invest in my characters. Also in multiplayer, even though three active Powers is still cool, the fact that slot 4 on the bar is empty makes it feel like something's missing. Sure there are the items in slots 5 to 8 (Rockets, Health Boosts, Medi-Gel and Ammo Packs), but it makes me wish that slot 4 wasn't so glaringly empty. I guess it makes some sort of sense; there probably aren't enough powers in multiplayer for every class to have 4 powers each, but why not have ammo powers or a species-unique power fill that slot? It's not a major problem, but it just feels wrong for the slot to be empty in an otherwise jam-packed quickbar.
[QUOTE=darkrei9n;34927937]Really like it, it feels like a military vessel now. The ME2 Normandy felt sort of... sterile and more like a luxury ship rather than a stealth frigate.[/QUOTE] Although it does look a lot more like a Star Trek/Star Wars long-term space-faring vessel there are parts where it looks like it's under maintenance still. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. And it looked like there were quite a few empty or uninteresting rooms (Thane's old quarters, Grunt's old room is closed (probably going to be the Prothean's room or some other DLC character)) But in general, it looks to be an awesome sci-fi ship worthy of extensive exploration. I never saw Tali on board :v:

Well it does make sense it feels more like a military vessel since the alliance took it
[QUOTE=Jackald;34928070][h2]CINEMATIC FILES FOR THE ME3 LEAK ARE APPARENTLY .BIK, SO YOU CAN WATCH THEM WITHOUT A CRACK, MEANING THE GAME'S MAJOR PLOT POINTS ARE 100% LEAKED[/h2][/QUOTE] That only applies to the pre-rendered cinematics obviously. Going to be a lot of spoilers soon.
Well i'm out of the thread then; best to stay under the rock until I begin Shepard's quest to defeat the Reapers...
Abandon Internet, time to stay in my room with nothing but a PS3 and a box set of 24.
I've munched on spoilers since the beginning. Bring it on.
i love how people post ABANDON THREAD and " disconnecting the internet see you in a couple weeks" but then keep on posting 5 posts/ 1 page later
[QUOTE=mercurius;34926123]Did anyone notice the new "Enemies everywhere" will be a Cerberus guy saying constantly: "Taking casualties!" Cannot unhear after playing MP and SP.[/QUOTE] "Objective Lost" "Target Cloaked" "MEDIC" "We've got wounded" "Squad, Push Up" "DOWN" "Get To Cover" and the best of all, when the Quarians say "BANANA" which is apparently supposed to sound like "For Rannoch" but does not in any way shape or form.
Would it be too much to ask for people to not post any upcoming spoilers (cut-scenes, pictures of cut-scenes, cut-scene deaths, etc.)? [sp]Does a bear shit in the woods?[/sp]
I ain't leaving nowhere as long as you keep the plot related stuff goddamn spoilered instead of being killjoys.

[sp]Does a bear shit in the woods?[/sp][/QUOTE] i think they should still be posted for those curious who might not be getting the game, just don't put them in media or [img] tags
Dis gun b gud is all I can say to the possible amount of spoilage.

all these 'abandon thread' and 'abandon internet' posts are annoying, mainly because most of the people saying them aren't actually going to do that and spamming image macros are dumb
Damn it, im starting to scroll down whole pages, too much [sp]spoilers[/sp]. :<
Spoilers aren't that bad, its an entirely different feel between knowing something is going to happen and experiencing it for yourself.
