[QUOTE=Zezibesh;35214824]It's so disappointing they're never seen again after ME1.[/QUOTE] They almost did get into ME2, there's a complete model of a Geth resembling a hopper that's unused: [img]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101206022853/masseffect/images/thumb/2/20/GTH_HUB_NKDa_MDL.png/640px-GTH_HUB_NKDa_MDL.png[/img]
Say, here's a question concerning the whole "universal cooldown" thing that's prominent in Mass Effect's powers system. (also yay i'm back; copy came and now i'm having fun) As we all know, when you use a power, all the character's powers are put on cooldown even if they haven't been used. I'm wondering whether that is restrictive in a bad way, or if it's actually a benefit of sorts. Personally I find it kinda restrictive, since if you use a power that has a long cooldown, you can't use ANY powers for a while, meaning that shooting, moving and bashing enemies is all you can do until the universal cooldown says you can pop another power. I'd prefer something like individual cooldowns for each power, like other games have, or at least have separate cooldown tickers for certain groups of powers. For example, one could use an Overload to tear down enemy shields, which puts the Tech powers on cooldown as the Omni-Tool recharges, and then hit the enemy with a biotic attack to knock them down, which puts your Biotics on cooldown as the Amp recharges. But that stuff aside, what do you guys think of the universal cooldown system; does it draw away from the experience or add to it? Also, I still think that the heat generated by firing weapons should still be utilised as a resource, like for a quick boosting of shields, recharging a heavy weapon, or activating a sort of "ultimate" that requires high amounts of Charge to unleash.

Ea, fix your damn servers. I can't plat multiplayer at all, because i keep disconnecting mid round because I "Lost connection to servers"
[QUOTE=Jackald;35214785]-Black widow? Don't particularly want -Mantis upgrades? Don't want -Ugh, more SMG upgrades? I DON'T EVEN USE THOSE GUNS! All I want is a carnifex and some pistol mods. Is that too much to ask for, game? [/quote] I'd be happy, I'v bought like 5 Specter packs and lots of the others and all i got was the Vindicator which i think is shit and i don't use Assult Rifles anyway All i want is a good sniper and some Sniper and SMG mods dammit
I find that if I host the game, I get to play to the end. Which is ok for now but it still means i can't play with my friends unless the guy with the worst connection hosts. I also heard that the MP DLC Characters will In a pack that can be purchased for biowar epoints or a buttload of creits. So imma get saving.
So I found out I had 1000 Bioware points sitting in my account from my last DLC binge. Not sure what I was thinking So despite having been unable to play the multiplayer since the demo, I bought 3 Spectre packs None of them contained a weapon. What the fuck EDIT: Still, they're fairly cheap. Only reason I didn't buy more was because I'm waiting for DLC, but I still have about 400 points

Anyone have a Recommended skill tree for the Salarian Engineer?
Validating my cache to see if that will fix my problem. Also Sovereign would be so dissapointed in ME3. [editline]20th March 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Waterrmelonn;35215389]Anyone have a Recommended skill tree for the Salarian Engineer?[/QUOTE] Pour everything into your Decoy. It will make life extremely easy. And Energy Drain is a godsend if you are fighting Geth, guaranteed Shield recovery everytime to save your ass on Silver and Gold.
[QUOTE=Waterrmelonn;35215389]Anyone have a Recommended skill tree for the Salarian Engineer?[/QUOTE] I play that exclusively. Use a heavier weapon, like an assault rifle or sniper, a shotgun works too. point is it has to be high damage forget decoy. max incinerate and the shield steal thing play against geth. on the Salarian tree, go for health and shields because you never melee and the thing has like zero shields or health

You know, I heard a lot of people were pissed that you could "yes homo" in with cortez. Out of all the reasons to have hatred of ME3, that HAS to be the worst.

The haters are just mad that it wasn't Harbinger assuming direct control of Shepard's Hades Gamma
Third playthorough gives me bugs, like on Palaven's moon when the gates never opened.
[QUOTE=Vallux;35215813]The haters are just mad that it wasn't Harbinger assuming direct control of Shepard's Hades Gamma[/QUOTE] The thought of that is good enough :quagmire:
[QUOTE=Vallux;35215813]The haters are just mad that it wasn't Harbinger assuming direct control of Shepard's Hades Gamma[/QUOTE] Although a few Harby voice lines would have been nice. I mean, would it take too much to add a little "It ends here Shepard!" when he lands and shoots at you?

And then Harbinger shoots it's hot Reaper load all over Shepard's ass and lower back. I need a new ending.
I'm going for my third playthrough of ME3, I should probably choose a class that isn't soldier, but goddamn I can't stay away from all the beautiful ammo modes.
Oh yeah I forgot let me try out the BF3 g- [img]http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l545/WhatTheNovar/29d205145e4871d770adbaf57a55dcec.png[/img] uh
