[Megathread] Mass Effect 3

[rhorle]

Re-packaging and charging Multiplayer weapons for Single player?

Didn't see that coming.

Its nothing new. Taking from multiplayer is new but Mass Effect 2 had weapons packs that took re-released special items. Also you are getting two new guns that aren't from multiplayer and a limited promotion weapon.

Blood Pack Punisher SMG: Submachine gun with a secondary barrel that fires armor-piercing rounds.

The Punisher features a secondary barrel that fires one armor-piercing round per main-barrel burst. It was developed by Blood Pack gunsmiths who found that their vorcha recruits frequently forgot to optimize ammo loads in the heat of combat. This configuration makes the process automatic and highly effective at penetrating armor.

Adas Anti-Synthetic Assault Rifle: Electrical weapon that's effective against shields and synthetic targets.

Named in memory of the quarians killed in the Morning War on the planet Adas, this weapon's electrical attack has been optimized for medium- to long-range firefights. Alliance marines take issue with calling it a "rifle" since, technically, it has no rifling in its barrel. The quarians shrug this off, as quarian weapon terminology rarely translates flawlessly into human languages.

Those are the two new ones, and the Indra is the "limited" promotional weapon that was previously only open to PC users who went to Alienwares page to claim a code around the time the game launched.

Yep that's what I did. Think I actually posted the link to it in this thread way back when too when someone asked how to get it.

[Nerraw]

So, a ranged Reegar? I'm definitely getting this pack.

[CrossNgen]

I'll probably buy it with Leviathan as well.

[Sekira]

Do they have plan to recycle new multiplayer map into extra N7 single player mission? not that the multiplayer map based missions were particulary interesting but that would still be extra content

Trust me on this, but BioWare is not going to lose major support over just Mass Effect 3. That is like saying Blizzard is in dire straits for the ruckus about Diablo 3. You have players loving and hating either game, both companies earning money, and both companies have an outstanding track record of producing successful games.

BioWare could spend 1 billion dollars creating Minesweeper: The RPG for all I care, and I would still try their games. It is a bit hard to comprehend, I am sure, but I've been loyal to BioWare since Baldur's Gate and they've NEVER failed me. Yes, there have been some disappointments (Awakening, DA2), but there has never been a BioWare game that has made me so horribly disillusioned that I'd say "I have to stop playing this game, right now. This is awful, I can not continue, even if I haven't finished it". I still found parts about Awakening and DA2 (which are the games I don't like too much out of the ones BioWare made) to be really great, and they worked very well. Those two, while not epic, were still good games (although DA2 was in danger of getting into "mediocre" with its story and reused areas).

There's so much mistakes they can do... And Bioware crossed the line LONG AGO.

Or you missed the cancellation of the DLCs planned for DA2, with the excuse of "so they can concentrate in DA3"? Everyone knows it was lack of sales.
And Mike Gamble is on a "screw you" streak, because he is expecting that Leviathan sales blow so HARD, that he will be fired together with Hudson and Walters.

They even threw the firefight pack beforehand so they can check the real damage. To decide what extras they have to throw at Leviathan to ensure enough sales.
Since isn't extras what's driving people away, but the atrocious kidnapping of the narrative, NOTHING will work.

Too many.

Far, far, too many.

157 is TOO MANY???? WOW, Bioware expectations are so low by now.

[Grizzly Willy]

Perhaps you should pay more attention to the percentage in the poll instead of the number of people participating in it? I mean, when you take a survey you extrapolate it out into the entire population that it is applicable to. Also, I think you're missing the point of what he's saying. He's not Bioware, he's a fan.

At any rate, I'm not going to pick them up, I'm with those who think it's a waste of money. I'll get Leviathan, though.

[Oerba Yun Fang]

I'm definitely buying it, I'm just not sure when. I haven't decided if I'm waiting until Leviathan comes out and buying them together, or buying the weapon pack before Leviathan comes out.

Yeah, I'm not spending money on weapons on armor. If I'm buying DLC, it'll be something with a plot like Leviathan (which I am buying.)

It's a wonderful day to be a conspiracy nut.

It's a wonderful day to be a conspiracy nut.

"A conspiracy theory explains an event as being the result of an alleged plot by a covert group or organization or, more broadly, the idea that important political, social or economic events are the products of secret plots that are largely unknown to the general public."

HEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHHEHEHHEHEH
BWAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA
I love the two standards approach of biodrones. 157 people is a big enough sample to extrapolate, but over 8000 saying how bad the game went on the very same network are a vocal minority.

BWAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHHA

Biodrones dude, biodrones. That will only ricochet on them.

Anyway, why worry? There are less of them standing each day, while the angry betrayed mob never rests. Or stop to grow.

Let's tone it down some.

[Grizzly Willy]

Did I ever call them a minority? I believe I said that I was in the minority since I actually liked the original endings. I'm not exactly sure where you're getting this from. Additionally, you skipped over the other portion of my post where I stated that you weren't interpreting the post you responded to. He's saying that there are too many people who are falling for this stupid, and in my opinion completely worthless, weapons pack that's mostly multiplayer weapons.

I see you're not interested in a discussion, though. I would like to talk about this, but if you're going to be rude about it I'll drop it.

As far as im concerned, both of you are needlessly obnoxious and should visit a spa.

Apologies, I didn't mean to be obnoxious.

[Gravath]

Apologies, I didn't mean to be obnoxious.

I meant <Snip>, as he is a good example of a "biodrone".
I wouldnt call you that.

[Mod Edit: Please avoid personal attacks]

[Buu]

Apologies, I didn't mean to be obnoxious.

And I don't need to be hypocritical. Regarding the Unholy Trinity of Gamble, Walters, and Hudson I reserve myself to be as obnoxious as I want.
There are much more deserving places for balanced discussions than in the wasteland fields of Bioware or Diablo 3 development.

[Grizzly Willy]

So you're not interested in a rational discussion?

[Gravath]

And do you count a website starting with a number amongst those?

But sorry guys, the story (of diablo 3) is neither short or shallow. It's perfect.

If I'm a Biodrone then what does that make you... You are the biggest hypocrite on this forum and it literally rofld after I read this. Apparently their is simple no accounting for taste.

I'm still waiting for any proof of anything you allege

I cannot admit plenty of things wrong with both Bioware and their games. I do not accept statements made by people on internet forums as gospel without a shread of truth. Mike gamble going on a tear because Leviathan sales are expected to suck is what exactly if not conspiratorial? A bold prediction? If you classify challenging that as Biodrone then you have serious issues.
