Mass Effect Megathread: He said "I should go." Do I sound like that? - Games

[QUOTE=Cree8ive;48000126]:v:[/QUOTE] You think this is a game but I hope you realize that even computers enjoy hydration, see: Water-Cooling :wink:

Maybe there's a twist at the end and the premise for the next few games becomes Milky Way Vs Andromeda.

This ME3 mod is great. [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/masseffect3/mods/350/?"]Galaxy Map Mod[/URL] [IMG]http://static-4.nexusmods.com/15/mods/208/images/350-0-1433069654.jpg[/IMG] It allows you to travel to all star clusters, all systems that ever were in the series, at any time, and more. It also adds assignments, where the Normandy can further help the war effort by going to some place, making decisions or giving tactical advise about battles and evacuations, etc. What you do considerably influences your war assets. And it also makes the war more dynamic and immersive, by making your every decision, even in past games, count; also by giving you detailed reports on every step of the Reapers' advance, and making time count (as far as I saw, anyway): if you take too much time, the troops end up tired and you lose war points. Finally, it also adds a few things to the Normandy, most noticeably being able to keep the guns and ship modifications you bought in Mass Effect 2, and... making Shepard subscribed to Fornax. No pictures though. I've played through the whole game with this mod, it really gets you closer to the war. You read the reports about casualties, the greatest defeats and victories against the Reapers, and your war assets go up and down all the time for good reason, and you play a major part in it all. Highly recommended.

was there any news in E3 or anywhere about ME4?

[QUOTE=Mizo;48023975]was there any news in E3 or anywhere about ME4?[/QUOTE] Just the trailer and a promise of more this year

[QUOTE=Dan2593;48025255]Just the trailer and a promise of more this year[/QUOTE] Wasn't it next year?

[QUOTE=CrossNgen;48025331]Wasn't it next year?[/QUOTE] Next year was its slated release. We'll probably get more info on the game itself this year.

Release next year, but I saw an article saying they'd show more this year

I would like a Mass Effect game where you aren't a Big Damn Hero saving the universe again. They've created such a rich universe - let me be a C-Sec detective bound by red tape, hunting down vicious criminals in the darkest parts of the Wards. Or a bounty hunter torn between easy money and frontier justice out in the Terminus Systems. Let's really get into the nitty gritty of the universe instead of confronting yet another ancient evil which inexplicably wants to destroy everything and can only be stopped with deus ex machina #4. And please stick to the established art style and technological level. It's kind of iconic. I'm not excited for Mass Effect 4. It looks like they're just going to try and go even bigger and more out there even though there's plenty to play with already, it's the same shit that killed Halo.

I found a fan-made trailer that deserves so many more views. [video=youtube;QtmM9kZjfAk]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtmM9kZjfAk[/video] I also found a thread which I wish was more active, but I've got a feeling we'll get reason to be hyped soon.

I have a feeling that Mass Effect 4 is going to bomb, honestly. Definitely not going to preorder this, or even buy it until the reviews are up. I can see them doing a half-assed job with the characters, a linear and cliche plot, and some flashy laser effects and expecting people to eat it all up.

At least let's wait until we get to see something. [editline]26th August 2015[/editline] By the way, do you know what I found on the Mass Effect Nexus? Exactly the opposite of what you'd think you'll find on the Nexus. [url]http://www.nexusmods.com/masseffect2/mods/58/?[/url]

Bioware know that one of the biggest reasons people touch their RPGs is for the characters, so I doubt they'd be so stupid as to neglect them, but I'm still very shy of them after ME3. Citadel helped win a part of me back, but the trust is still gone.

Should i buy the Citadel dlc? I heard it is good.

Short answer: yes

It's 1000% fancervix.

[QUOTE=27X;48611771]It's 1000% fancervix.[/QUOTE] you say this like it's bad

They could have spent the money actually fixing the endings instead of slathering them over with haha lels it's just like joss whedon wrote this lel lol lol lel

This is a bit of a necro, but I think this is the only thread I could get an answer in. I'm interesting in getting the trilogy to play over the Uni break, but I'm also interested in playing the DLC I never got to try when played ME1 and 2 on the Xbox 360. If I get the trilogy pack on Origin, will it give me the DLC? Or do I need to buy each game separately to play the DLC?

You need to buy each game separately to get ALL the DLC. Me1 comes with PS and BDtS Me2 comes with Zaeed, Normandy and FireWalker Me3 comes with nothing.

Oh I didn't really even know there was a ME thread Played through the trilogy recently, loved it

There was a Mass Effect Loot crate that sold out in like a day, managed to buy one for myself before they sold out. I'll have to see in December if it was worth the 80 dollars.

new teaser for andromeda doesn't have any actual gameplay or anything but it seems to canonize shepard as a woman? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0Et481TNgE[/media]

[QUOTE=Pops;49072939]it seems to canonize shepard as a woman?[/QUOTE] omg

...I'm pretty sure it doesn't. [QUOTE=IrishBandit;49059910]There was a Mass Effect Loot crate that sold out in like a day, managed to buy one for myself before they sold out.

[QUOTE=Pops;49072939]it seems to canonize shepard as a woman? [/QUOTE] Maybe Jennifer Hale was the only one available? I don't mind though. It's nice to see RPG franchises acknowledging both genders.

Again with that one fucking note of Vigil. That song will never not make me shed a manly tear.

wtf you both have the same avatar
