[Megathread] Mass Effect 3

[Oerba Yun Fang]

I used to be able to host games (no clue what the experience was like for those playing with me though since I never played with anyone I knew), but I haven't tried since I got a new modem/router after my ISP upgraded my internet. No idea if it'd work now. lol

[Nerraw]

Release date of Omega is Novermber 27th.

[Oerba Yun Fang]

And here I am, still not having even begun Leviathan. lol

O.o

GET TO WORK RIGHT DAMN NOW!

Yes, it's that good.

[Oerba Yun Fang]

I can't bring myself to start up ME3 when there's just so much stuff to do on WoW. DX

Haha, im seeing Sabaton live on that day.
What a bloody timing.

You can host a game, if you create it you are the host, you'll get zero lag.

There is always a host, if he leave you'll get a loading screen while the server relocate a new host and restart from the previous wave (they changed that I think though).

When joining a game, you'll join the lowest ping game meeting your criteria, obviously as the number of player drop, and if your criteria is very restrictive you may end up joining a high ping game.

I know how it works mate. Like crap.
That's why I'm saying that we could really use dedicated servers.

[Nerraw]

Oh yeah, and I should probably mention that he actually talks about a female turian in that video.

This is gonna be scary.
Imagine a female Garrus.

That would cost EA money.
They would shut down Bioware.

[Nerraw]

So apparently Dragoons can see through the Infiltrator's cloak. Didn't matter where I went, fucker kept following and charging me.

Considering the females tend to be kickass in this video game, that sounds awesome.

Well except for femshep.
But i actually meant appearance wise.

Well if the female krogan and salarian we've seen were any indication, it'll be practically no different than a male turian.

We saw one.
And she was hidden beneath a muslimtent, we dont know how female krogan looks.
As for salarians.. well, they are just big frogs.

You could see enough of her face to get a pretty good idea about what the rest of her would look like, and it is indeed very similar to a male krogan. I'd imagine the features were generally the same but with smaller cranial plates and humps than the males, if not lacking them entirely.

[Gravath]

Not how it works.

[Oerba Yun Fang]

Then explain how it does work. I don't see you coming up with any brilliant suggestions as to how they would look. So far, we have had very little difference in the sexes for aliens up to now. Hell, from what I could tell, there IS none whatsoever for salarians. I doubt female turians would be radically different either.

[Gravath]

Because only seeing eyes lets you know how the creature looks in entirity.
No.

And theres not enough to back up that females are close to identical to the males as a basis.
We have the salarians that dont even look like they have a gender, quarians that covers themselves in suits. The males could have horns for all we know. Horns sticking out of their nose.
Krogans have this muslim thing going on.
And most of the races dont seem to have females. Vorcha, Hanar, Volus, Elkor, Drell, Batarians, Yahg.

[Grizzly Willy]

I was going to respond with a picture of a female Drell through the scope of a sniper rifle, but then I realized it's fan art. Could have sworn it was from a comic.

The general body shape of the female krogan is the same, as is the eye region. It's not a huge leap to assume that they are generally similar to the males with smaller proportions. The quarians do seem to have more defined sexes, but they're the exception for the species we've seen both genders of (I'm obviously not counting the humans in this). Krogan and salarians both have similar or identical features for both genders. Unless the robes hide some vastly different anatomy for both races, I'm inclined to believe there's no difference in a male and female salarian (line up the Dalatrass without her robes next to a male salarian and I'm not sure I could tell which is which), and very little differences in the male and female krogan.

You can obviously see that the hump of a female krogan is smaller than that of a male, and their head plates are less pronounced (they do have plates from what I can tell - I saw what appeared to be the bottom lip of one during one of the EC stills). From what their robes reveal, a female krogan's anatomy is very similar to that of the males. Same leg structure with what looks like smaller feet and toes, and slightly smaller hands. There's no reason to believe that what is under Eve's robes is all that different from what we see in Wrex or Grunt.

I'm also going on the assumption that genitalia for all species (excluding asari) are appropriately different for male and female, though that's total speculation as we don't have any indication of that beyond Fornax.
