Mass Effect Megathread - This one doesn't have time for your solid waste excretions! - Games

Let me catch a whiff of your air.

What to port...

What about Tech Armour pieces?

[QUOTE=tommo400;26417244]I hope he'll at least have a role in leading the Alliance ships against the Reapers, or whatever else we face in ME3. The distinct lack of Hackett in ME2 was disappointing. His voice is pure, tank-bred awesome.[/QUOTE] Biotic gods yes. Think of him leading a fleet into combat. Sheer awesome [Quote=MoarToast]-Fucked up Shepard-[/Quote] Biotic singularity gone bad [Quote=EvilMattress]Mass effect trailer [/Quote] They need to release that. That is so good

[QUOTE=imadaman;26422621]Some version released in April.[/QUOTE] There's one released in October actually. [QUOTE=MoarToast;26422139]Save editor is loads of fun once you've done pretty much all there is to do in ME2. Although I somehow managed to make my "dummy" Shepard have no upper-eyelids before I even edited the save. Editing the things you've done in ME1 seems to be a bit of a pain to do from scratch though, I imagine you'd probably need to makes sure some things are checked if you don't want to horribly break dialogue options. I'd also love to know how to use different bodies with Shepard's head, but that's kind of a pain.[/QUOTE] Yeah it's annoying to do from scratch, best method is to have a completed ME2 save which you can edit, to see which parts need to be ticked or unticked. [QUOTE=Novangel;26422188]I failed at the editor probably because I was in the Normandy back then. I made headless Shepard though so it's all good.[/QUOTE] You need to start a new game for any ME1 storyline changes to come into effect. [QUOTE=imadaman;26422308]No, that would effectively give the Win button to the Old Machines, since that's how they do things normally anyway. Except they put them back up when they're leaving.[/QUOTE] Pretty sure they reactivate the relays to attack systems, then close them behind them. Otherwise it would have taken thousands of years instead of centuries to sweep the galaxy.

To control the relays, they need to control the Citadel. Since they are coming in the long way, they probably won't be shutting off the relays any time soon.

Yes. But normally they'd appear straight at the Citadel, and spread out from there.

[quote]12/01/2010 - Nockrick Taur Arrested After Disrupting Musical Showing After his latest fiasco, police are charging self-declared elcor performance artist Nockrick Taur with breaking and entering, computer intrusion, inciting a riot, destruction of property, and resisting arrest. Taur broke into the Reyanommond auditorium on the Citadel during a showing of the popular new musical "Hearts on Breaking Shore." Halfway through the program, Taur used a jamming signal to short out every translator in the theater, then triggered a fire alarm. "It was a nightmare," says one theatergoer. "It was dark, people were suddenly shrieking gibberish, and no one knew what was happening. One poor salarian got his arm broken just because he was standing between the crowd and an exit." Taur expressed no remorse over the 44 people injured in the panic, only saying as he was led to jail: "Smug satisfaction: It was an admirable success in forcing people to face their overdependence on technology for modern convenience."[/quote] Nothing about the most compressing and interesting news in the galaxy :smithicide: [editline]1st December 2010[/editline] Just researched AR Damage +70% <3 [editline]1st December 2010[/editline] Just researched AR Damage +70% <3

Just finished reading Revelation and Ascension, started to read Retribution. I love the looks you get in to the Mass Effect world through the books.

[QUOTE=-Ben_Wolfe-;26422242]At the end of Mass Effect 3 I hope to see an award assembly not unlike the one in A New Hope, where Admiral Hackett appears in person to award you the highest prestigious honor in the galaxy (or perhaps if the final battle has a type of decision where either Hackett or Anderson are killed, in which case the latter would take the place of the former with the epic speech and award distribution). Plus, have all your surviving comrades commemorated for their efforts too.[/QUOTE] To be honest, I'd let Anderson die if that was the case. Think about it, it's the kind of death he'd prefer.

Hacketts cool and all, but I've always seen Anderson as like a father figure to Shepard.

yes please

[QUOTE=MoarToast;26422320]This is about as far as I've gotten appearance-wise with the save editor: [media]http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii11/DarqKiller/MassEffect22010-12-0100-49-36-79.jpg[/media][/QUOTE] Why does nobody use the squad ammo upgrade?

Why would you?

[QUOTE=Dronaroid;26428164]Why does nobody use the squad ammo upgrade?[/QUOTE] I like my ammo as deadly as possible. The others have other abilities that they can use I prefer my to have the more powerful upgrade instead of spreading it out over the squad

[QUOTE=BreenIsALie;26428628]I like my ammo as deadly as possible. The others have other abilities that they can use I prefer my to have the more powerful upgrade instead of spreading it out over the squad[/QUOTE] Me too. When fully upgrading powers I also usually go for the maximum strength rather than increased area.

I'm curious if we keep the Normandy or get (another) new one. Aswell what happens with wrex, aria, kathlee and anderson, and pehaps the quarian explores with the 2 humans (hendel, and forgot he girls name). To much questions... i can't wait for me3...

[QUOTE=tommo400;26428647]Me too.

Why did Infiltrator lose Overload in ME2? The firebomb shit is absolutely useless, I liked overload.

At least that's how I'd like it. Don't give a shit about Aria, might as well kill her off for all I care. Don't remember any Kathlee. Anderson.. Eh. He never left an impression on me. If it came to saving Hackett or Anderson I'd take Hackett over him any day.

That would be great.[/QUOTE] It would be awesome to have previous squadmates like Wrex, in fact I'd like all previous squadmates to return. But if they have all them and alternate squadmates for if they previously died, it would take a ridiculous amount of dialogue.

So I installed Bring Down The Sky for ME1PC, but...I'm getting this weird blue texture glitch on certain objects on the Normandy, haven't even reached Eden Prime yet.
