Mass Effect Megathread: DING DONG BANNU edition - Games

So apparently, there are RP groups that actually use the multiplayer as missions :U I'm trying to get involved in one, it sounds fucking hilarious.

[QUOTE=jiggu;35510140]Any idea of the cost?[/QUOTE] sorry no :(

[QUOTE=mac338;35509286]While I waited for the DLC I made a small walkthrough of the mission in ME1 where Shepard meets Sovereign for the first time [video=youtube;6XneLZgdzSI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XneLZgdzSI[/video][/QUOTE] Sovereign is so cute. So when does it come out.. Oooh, my Full zip hoodie shipped out. I hope Medium isn't too big for me.

and I just found out the guy who stole my ME3 has my Crysis 2.

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;35510269]and I just found out the guy who stole my ME3 has my Crysis 2.[/QUOTE] how so? Didn't we last have his steam and email?

Oh christ, this is hilarious. I can't post the chat logs because I'm not the big of a douche, but suffice it to say. The Krogan in the group is trying to copy Wrex, and pulls it off, WITHOUT THE BADASSRY.

Still don't quite understand how someone can just go to EA support and say "Please transfer X to this account" and badger them enough that they will actually do it. The Steam Support would just laugh in your face.

[QUOTE=Greeneyes;35510282]how so? Didn't we last have his steam and email?[/QUOTE] I think I just realized I'm still missing my Crysis 2. Or he just got that too. Everyone report (gunjaman13@gmail.com): [img]http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/6126/20120410073255.jpg[/img] It's also fucking scary that now he has even more games.. meaning he's still stealing games.

I loved this conversation. Should probably play ME again. The music makes Sovreign seeml so powerful and mysterious. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvrIFIjTGt0[/media]

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;35507663]Oh come on she's still a massive cunt in ME3 take her to the ardat-yakshi monastery mission, "hurr those asari commandos must been such cowards they ran away" when the commandos knew they were gonna die and thus set up a path for you to use[/QUOTE] What? I brought her to the monastery, and I don't recall her ever calling them cowards.

[QUOTE=Indyclone77;35510417]Post it on Reddit that will get them to take action against him[/QUOTE] Ok. Well, later. I have to go soon.

[QUOTE=Cam00;35505032]I've got this shading glitch, anyone know a fix? [thumb]http://horobox.reager.org/u/cam00_1334089170.png[/thumb] Using a Radeon 4800, the graphical options have no effect on it (I tired them all on and off, same thing). Changing the brightness just makes it worse. On a more positive note, I'm loving it so far. The game, not the glitch.[/QUOTE] Come on, surely some one has seen this before/knows anything about it.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvrIFIjTGt0[/media][/QUOTE] Funny how I just watched that when I came home and you post it within the hour. "You exist because we allow it. And you will end because we demand it." Best line in any game.

[QUOTE=Dominicus;35510384]How do you pull of a Wrex without being a badass?[/QUOTE] By acting like Wrex, but without KILLING EVERYTHING EASILY. We ALWAYS have to revive him.

[QUOTE=Zeos;35510522]And the fact that he refers to the cycle more than once as an eradication of life. Really sounds like they're saving us right?[/QUOTE] It mentions [B]salvation[/B] through destruction as well

[QUOTE=Zeos;35510522]And the fact that he refers to the cycle more than once as an eradication of life. Really sounds like they're saving us right?[/QUOTE] They're not about saving the organics in the current cycle, but those in cycles thereafter.

It really does sound like they were planning to go with the Dark Energy explanation in all seriousness, but then Casey and Mac had the worst plan ever once Drew left.

The reapers remind me so much of the Kohr-Ah from Star Control 2 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjJOu-VyDY8[/media] I think their backstory was better though. The setup of the Reapers in ME1 was impressive, but it was too grandiose to ever really have an explanation that would live up to expectation. [I]"In the twenty thousand years of our mission we have heard more pleas for mercy than you can possibly imagine. Civilizations which saw their doom before them called upon their geniuses to calm us... to no avail."[/I] Fucking ace.

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;35510438]Ok. Well, later. I have to go soon.[/QUOTE] And if that doesn't work post in on 4chan, 4chan should always be a last resort.

If I recall correctly, you were to be given a choice not to far from what we had, but it made way more sense - Join the reapers, IE giving up, destroy them and hope you can figure out a plan in your own way as well as a third that I can't remember.

Liara's apartment is a cool place [IMG]http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/169/2/a/lair_of_the_new_shadowbroker_by_axl99-d3j80wa.jpg[/IMG]

I can't think of any way in which you could have a happy ending that wouldn't seem forced or inexplicable. Also sounds like the whole "three choices" crap which people railed so intensely against.

[QUOTE=Whatsinaname;35510649]This made my day.[/QUOTE] You may laugh at him now, but once he evolves we're all fucked.

I'm guessing it's too late to try and get into the multiplayer aspect of ME3 now? Last time I tried (only a day after release) I ended up in a game with N7 levels of like 40+ who instantly said "Are you fucking kidding me" as soon as I joined.
