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

[QUOTE=phaedon;26122578]On the contrary, it could be the game that stops the notoriety of FPSs.[/QUOTE] Its not that FPS games are bad, its just that there are so many of them in the market nowadays, and Mass Effect 2 combat is really special. I love it.

I am both excited and confused by the Mass Effect clue.

Now if only we didn't have a few weeks to wait and speculate.

I am pretty sure that Bioware will drop more hints.

A Mass Effect FPS is a solid win in my book. Bioware has really come into it's own for making shooters/action games over pure RPGs, so I'd like to see them stretch their legs with something few games succeed at (an FPSRPG). I'm hoping for good 'ol Mass Effect style conversation/character interaction and plot, with a good twist on the FPS style (here's hoping for Killzone 2 style cover systems, I loved that).

I wish they would finish ME3 before making something new about the Mass Effect universe. It's too early for spinoffs with a new character. Yet I think it is easier to make a new one because the story writers seem very fast and it is only the dev team that needs to catch up.

[QUOTE=DrarrkS52;26122105]An FPS would be awesome, just need to hope they found a perfectly good game to get FPS ideas from...plz not COD:WaW[/QUOTE] I dunno, mowing down waves of turian zombies could be cool.

A lot of people here are acting like Bioware will show the game and release in 6 months, usually they take quite some time with their games. I dont think its another ME game though just because they havent revealed anything on ME3.

Hey, I dont see any other bioware franchises with incisor sniper rifles.

I wouldn't mind a FPS with RPG elements but first person in the ME universe would seem strange, have to wait and see interested whatever it turns out to be.

Eh, Turian/Human strike teams, though I'd prefer TPS... I think... :sigh:

He's missing a neck.

[QUOTE=MajorMattem;26124355]I dont get you. What is TPS?[/QUOTE] Third Person Shooter.

[QUOTE=MajorMattem;26124029]Read a page back, its 75%/100% chance of being Mass Effect. Hey, I dont see any other bioware franchises with incisor sniper rifles.[/QUOTE] Its possible but a lot of devs reuse assets. For all you know it could be a ME easter egg they threw into a new game.

[QUOTE=phaedon;26121796]Hah, that's an awesome find Major ! But wait, will we be killing turians ? WHYYYYYYY :v:[/QUOTE] Sounds like great fun for me.

I'm still hoping for a First Contact War spin off.

[QUOTE=Goldenboy;26118480][i]The Incisor is one of a [b]new wave[/b] of military and police sniper rifles designed to overload active defenses such as shields.[/i] If it's a Mass Effect game, it's not a prequel...although to be honest I'm tempted to say they just re-coloured the Incisor and re-used it as an asset.[/QUOTE] Hate to quote myself from earlier, but given that it now looks like it -is- a Mass Effect title, looks like it was indeed just a developer getting lazy with a pallet-swap. So First Contact War it is....maybe....

[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;26125558]I'm still hoping for a First Contact War spin off.[/QUOTE] This. A million times.

[QUOTE=MajorMattem;26125647] But Bioware should know better! They WILL know better.[/QUOTE] But devs love to troll the community.

[QUOTE=superdinoman;26125369]Its possible but a lot of devs reuse assets. For all you know it could be a ME easter egg they threw into a new game.[/QUOTE] The trailer sniper rifle doesn't have the piece underneath the muzzle that the Incisor has.

If it was, when he met shepard, he would be way older.

[QUOTE=MajorMattem;26126149]Good picture, but it isnt Kaiden in the trailer. If it was, when he met shepard, he would be way older.[/QUOTE] He was talking purely about the picture. And a mighty fine picture it is indeed. [editline]17th November 2010[/editline] Also, it's spelled Kaid[b]A[/b]n. Not Kaid[b]E[/b]n.I really should go work at Bioware since I'm the only person in the entire world who realizes this.

Is there any reason at all to use Tali after you recruit Legion?

[QUOTE=Dronaroid;26126422]Is there any reason at all to use Tali after you recruit Legion?[/QUOTE] Because she is more fuckable than legion?

[QUOTE=MajorMattem;26126440]Because she is more fuckable than legion?[/QUOTE] That's debatable.
