This demo is good. The textures still iffy, but the facial expressions are great. I hate the hitmarker. The game is great. Especially the soundtrack. That is awesome. The ME1 infused gameplay is a nice touch. I really see hope in ME3. Infact, I'm preordering the digital deluxe edition. Really hope that comes with a soundtrack.
alright I guess I'll preorder this sucker
Just finished the demo for the first time (no coop at the moment, so no comment on that yet). I have mixed feelings. The game looks and sounds better than before. I'll wait on criticizing the animations in cutscenes (the "MOVE!" wasn't very convincing) but the combat ones I found very entertaining. I guess I'm a bit rusty with cover-based shooters and the new moves sometimes put me in more danger than safety. Also, I doubt this, but is there a workbench or something to use those upgrades you find? Can you get [sp]Kirrahe's[/sp] pistol? Also what happened to the promise that you'll be able to grab your enemy's weapons from the ground? Is this feature removed in the demo or the entire game? As for story, if the Earth is how the game truly begins, I think they didn't do a good job on the transition from ME2 to ME3. Not much happened in the demo so I'm not sure how well-written the rest of the game is going to be, I only noticed that I was mostly watching a cutscene with the option to say a single line few times.

Also, I like that Soldier class now gets a SMG. Aw yeah.
[QUOTE=SFC3;34700581]Also, I like that Soldier class now gets a SMG. Aw yeah.[/QUOTE] Dammit now I really want to download the demo
[QUOTE=Saza;34700435]-shoot, don't have access- Do you have to preorder to download it or something?[/QUOTE] No, the only early access is the MP demo one, no need to preorder nothing.
Odd. I still can't download it. Where do you have to 'activate your BF3 multiplayer key'? I have BF3 on Origin and I play it.
If I ever catch someone playing the game in "Action mode." I will be forced to murder them.
I was disappointed when I got no sniper as Infiltrator, I even put all points into the sniping skill tree.
[QUOTE=Saza;34700611]Odd. I still can't download it. Where do you have to 'activate your BF3 multiplayer key'?

If you own BF3 then it will automatically allow you access to the MP.
Oh, okay. So that's where to go for it, the Web page wasn't doing anything Thanks a lot man

Hey is there a promo code for the digital deluxe edition? [editline]14th February 2012[/editline] that any knows of
I haven't seen a Krogan yet, that's it.
vanguard owns
Oh my god I love playing as a Krogan soldier so goddamn much. Headbutt shit erryday. [editline]15th February 2012[/editline] Also, I bought 1 veteran pack and 2 of those 5000 credit packs from the store and each said they unlocked a new character, but I didn't have any new characters unlocked when I checked, what's up with that?
Need one more for a full Co-op group. add Tylergube616 on Origin.
Man these textures are really disappointing. Hopefully they are higher res in the full game, but somehow I doubt they will be. I mean come on, it's 2012 and Anderson's clothes looked like crap. Not to mention those blurry Shogun: Total War looking 2D civilians fleeing on the ground. Looks like JeanLuc has some work to do when the game comes out. :P
preordered [editline]14th February 2012[/editline] Is it just me or do powers not curve like they used to in ME2?
[QUOTE=Lambeth;34700803]preordered [editline]14th February 2012[/editline] Is it just me or do powers not curve like they used to in ME2?[/QUOTE] They do, they curve more in my experience.
I cannot play with pubs anymore, its like playing with a deaf comatose person.

God damn Co-Op is pretty fun. Hopefully down the road they had objective based levels. Wave based levels are going to get tiresome after awhile.
One nice detail I noticed; Kirrahe's dialogue implies that you're meeting him again for the first time during the firefight, whereas in the other footage, it's possible to meet him before Cerberus begins their assault on the base. So there'll be two completely different versions of dialogue, based on whether you spoke to him or not. Nice touch. Also, maybe I didn't see it properly, but [sp]was he snapping the neck of a fully-armoured Cerberus troop when you meet him? Holy crap.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Goldenboy;34701064]Also, maybe I didn't see it probably, but [sp]was he snapping the neck of a fully-armoured Cerberus troop when you meet him? Holy crap.[/sp][/QUOTE] They sorta fight a bit then he's just all like "fuck yo shit mang" and kills him THAT is why I wanted salarian soldiers for MP
Someone want to help me out? I just finished the demo and it was fuckin' sweet. Multiplayer on the other hand i cant play much because when I'm in a lobby the game displays my origin email. How the shit do i change that? It's a really stupid email, something i threw together for BF3.
I'm genuinely surprised that the multiplayer customization is so shitty. You'd think Bioware would allow for different pieces of armor, or at least helmets, that they could charge you extra for in those money hungry packs that they're peddling.
Oh, and maybe it's just me, but when you evac Vancouver, did anyone else get a total 'Scumbag Shepard' vibe? [b]Tells wounded soldier he'll get help. Leaves planet.[/b]
