Vanguard glitch has always been like that, even since the demo.

Swiss Ultimate 03-20-2012 01:29 AM

It's just so weird...one time it allowed me to revive a fallen team member from beneath the floor. Another time it made this dude just stand in one spot, think he was invulnerable though so...

G 03-20-2012 08:16 AM

So when are we going to see more game modes.

ClockShot 03-20-2012 09:23 AM

So I just finished the campaign.

SPOILER: show
Kinda in between of complaining and not complaining about the end. I was confused on how they explained the scenarios of what you choose. I know it all boils down to what you got for readiness rating. I took the right side and destroyed the reapers. I kinda hoped that when you get to the top it gave you an explanation on what you were about to do, instead it locks you in and you can't go back.

Normandy crew crashed somewhere, Shepard takes a breath of air at the end, after credits scene showed the future and how we don't know what's out there. Gonna try again later and see what the organic/synthetic harmony ending does.

Emperor Smeat 03-20-2012 03:04 PM

All the jokes about Bioware making a Mass Effect 3 ending DLC could actually become true in the future.

They have started to listen to fan feedback and could make changes although as of now they won't any time soon.

I guess I could get a refund from Amazon for me CE, since other people are doing it. :nono:

I am still waiting on receiving my big, thick package from the silver challenge.

Jokes and conspiracy theories. But really, haven't they pretty much only made a polite "no comment" at this point? That's what generally "no plans at the current time" and "we're listening" usually means.

G 03-20-2012 07:51 PM

Congratulations everyone! The first N7 Challenge saw a tremendous level of success – the community goal of killing one million brutes was beaten handily by participants. Through your combined efforts, over THREE MILLION brutes were destroyed! Many thousands of players also managed to beat the Reaper faction on Silver difficulty and achieve extraction. As per the initial announcement, Victory and Commendation Packs will be awarded tomorrow (Tuesday, March 20) at 5 PM PST. We’ll be announcing additional challenges in the days to come – but be ready to step up your game…We hope to see you all on the front lines!

Swiss Ultimate 03-20-2012 07:53 PM

Gonzo 03-20-2012 10:28 PM

Would love to get a decent SMG. All I have are the Shuriken and the Hornet.

I would love to get that N7 shotty. Punching power of a shotgun and deadly accurate.

SlickyTrickyDamon 03-21-2012 05:01 AM

Victory Pack: 3 Medi Gels, SMG Rail Amp II, Pistol-High Calibur Barrel 1, Geth Pulse Rifle.

Commendation Pack: 5 Medi Gels, Cylonic Modulator 3 (level 3 shield bonus for one mission, N7 Valiant Sniper Rifle.

I was expecting more. I wonder how the Pulse rifle will do.

SlickyTrickyDamon 03-21-2012 05:26 AM

Geth Pulse Rifle sucked. Is it supposed to do more damage to Geth or less? Maybe that was the problem?

#BROKEN Hasney 03-21-2012 07:15 AM

According to several posts on Reddit, EA and Amazon are giving refunds on Mass Effect 3, even on digital copies and opened physical copies if you hate the ending that much.

Kane Knight 03-21-2012 09:29 AM

I knew about Amazon.

ClockShot 03-21-2012 11:12 AM

So anybody attempt the campaign on Insanity yet? This seems like a game you can get an easy 1000 on, but I'm kinda curious what I'm gonna be up against.

Verbose Minch 03-21-2012 11:42 AM

I got all the achievements in it the other day. Insanity is disappointingly easy compared to the first two.

A couple of Mass Effect 3 related news:

The next patch for the game will fix face import issues instead of creating a blank or default face.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-import-issue/

This weekend's goodie is called "Operation Fortress" and it offers 25% extra EXP experience possible with the event ending on March 26.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-this-weekend/

Child's Play drops any association with the group using the charity to plea with Bioware to change or fix the ending. The official stance of the charity is you can't use the charity for other stuff to be focused on even if you still donate the money generated to them.

The Destroyer 03-24-2012 02:27 PM

One thing I've been wondering: how does the game play out if you got everyone but Shepard killed at the kind of ME2? Do all the squad members from that game that play crucial roles just get replaced by generic substitutes?

Swiss Ultimate 03-24-2012 02:39 PM

I don't think that can happen, actually.

Swiss Ultimate 03-24-2012 02:41 PM

If Commander Shepard died in the player's Mass Effect 2 playthrough, the player will be unable to import their save game. Mass Effect 3's story is a continuation of Shepard's story and if Shepard died in Mass Effect 2 that death is considered final.<sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference">[44]</sup> Similarly, any squadmates who did not survive the suicide mission at the end of Mass Effect 2 will not return in Mass Effect 3.<sup id="cite_ref-44" class="reference">[45]</sup>

The Destroyer 03-24-2012 02:44 PM

It can happen, as long as Shepard him/herself doesn't die.

What does it matter. You get the same result at the end either way.

I could've sworn Legion was white last game. He is black in this one, and I don't ever remember them calling him Legion in this game. Maybe mine is the above mentioned generic substitute because the game might think he died last game, which is weird because I thought I picked the correct choices at the beginning where it asks about your history. I'm sure none of you had to make those choices since you didn't delete your ME1 and 2 saves. You are all cordially invited to go fuck yourselves.

The Destroyer 03-24-2012 03:31 PM

It's about the journey, not the destination.

Right. Garrus and Tali could die in ME2...then what? Only 3 squad options?

Hanso Amore 03-24-2012 04:08 PM

Or perhaps they made it so only shep and non Garrus and Tali could die in ME2...

The Destroyer 03-24-2012 04:15 PM

Based on some Googling, Garrus can definitely die in ME2 and doesn't get replaced by anyone in the ME3.

If Tali's dead, her roles are apparently filled by the Quarian admirals.

LoDownM 03-24-2012 05:42 PM

Legion was black in ME2, with lighter colored limbs, no idea what G is talking about.

G 03-24-2012 06:06 PM

no way. your game must have been modded

LoDownM 03-24-2012 06:23 PM

You are thinking of his alternate appearance. Which is White/Black, his default is Black/Red.

G 03-24-2012 06:47 PM

That must be it. Still don't recall them calling him Legion of it being in the dialogue windows. Maybe I just missed it.

EDI suggests it during the conversation after you activate him.

SlickyTrickyDamon 03-25-2012 12:59 AM

No, you can only bed Tali if you already bedded her in ME2. Her being dead would disqualify that possibility. Unless you're some sort of sicko.

I was a good boy in Mass Effect 2 and everybody survived the Suicide Mission even most of the Normandy's jobber Cerebis crew. Now I wish I let most of em die. :D

The Quarian female Admiral does have a sexy voice. She's from 24.

This is something from the Mass Effect Wiki Trivia Page on Romance which explains what happens.

SPOILER: show
There is a glitch in Mass Effect 3, where if you are continuing a relationship with Tali from Mass Effect 2 only for her to die during the battle to retake Rannoch, she will still appear to you before the assault on the Cerberus base as though she had survived.(

There's no way you could have beaten the mission if only Shepard survived.

Swiss Ultimate 03-25-2012 04:50 AM

You have to have like 2 others survive or you die. You still beat the mission, just...you die.

The Destroyer 03-25-2012 07:40 AM

Eh, I feel the ending could have been worse, in all honesty. It wasn't brilliant, but I was expecting the worst.

ClockShot 03-25-2012 10:46 AM

Insanity ain't so bad if you got your weapons maxed out. FYI, make sure you pick them back up in the game again.

Finding that right piece of cover makes all the difference.

Verbose Minch 03-25-2012 04:56 PM

The thing is though, it makes a hell of a lot more sense than the real ending. The real ending is literally one gigantic plot hole. At least with the indoctrination ending, it gives a reason for the plot holes.

Emperor Smeat 03-25-2012 05:09 PM

Bioware probably is going to make the whole idea of the indoctrination ending as the de facto ending assuming it gets changed with the DLC.

They probably didn't even have any plans for that to be possible but people are starting to assume that really was Bioware's plans after all.

There is some hints of more stuff was supposed to be done with The Illusive Man based on some unused audio files and probably was ditched by Bioware at the last moment.

To be fair, most of Bioware's endings make a lot of sense. Mostly because they're ripped straight out of other media.

But Mass Effect was pretty awesome all around.

That's the problem with it being one "interpretation." There's a lot of whole cloth being used to make parts up. Then they create plotholes to deal with plotholes. It's kind of absurd.

Best posts ever.

Emperor Smeat 03-26-2012 05:33 PM

According to the writer for Mass Effect 3, the original plans for the ending wasn't going to include making the same ending with 3 different colors or the current fan idea of the "indoctrination" theory but instead revolve the entire game around the issue of dark energy.

The 50,000 year cycle and real reason for Mass Relays would have been explained a lot better along with the small twist near the end of showing the Reapers were actually good guys.

The only thing that wouldn't have changed was the endings would still be triggered by a couple of choices and previous decisions made in the series had no impact.

This weekend's challenge is being called "Operation Raptor" and as of right now its unsure if the PS3 will be getting the challenge.

Quote:

Friday, March 30 – Sunday, April 1

The Reaper horde is growing, so we must as well. Effective military strength needs to increase, and veterans must train conscripts so that they, in turn, can train others.

Allied Goal: Promote 150,000 characters. Victory Packs awarded to all players upon successful completion.
Individual Goal: Promote 2 characters. Commendation Pack awarded to individual players upon successful completion.

Welcome to the next N7 Multiplayer Weekend!

Last weekend our community operatives united to train a record number of new recruits. The time has come to turn these new recruits into battle-hardened veterans.

Join the war against the Reapers online between 5PM PST Friday, March 30th to 5AM PST Monday, April 2nd and promote at least 2 characters to your single player campaign.

This operation includes PC and Xbox 360; we are continuing to work with Sony to enable these types of Operations on the PlayStation 3 platform. We appreciate your patience, and we expect an update later this week regarding Operation Raptor and the PlayStation 3.

Commendation Packs will be awarded to individual soldiers who complete their training, and a Victory Pack will be awarded to everyone if the Allied Goal is achieved. Packs will be available to download the following week. Please note that participants need to set “Upload Gameplay Feedback” to “on” in the online options to be able to participate in Operation RAPTOR.

Why did they pick 134 of each with 402 total. What do those numbers mean

FearedSanctity 03-28-2012 09:26 PM

Was wondering that too. Maybe it has something to do with the number of employees there? Or maybe they simply just evenly split the total they could afford?

I assumed it had to do with employee count.

FearedSanctity 03-29-2012 10:43 AM

I thought this was a pretty appropriate quote. From Fallout 3's Director/Executive Producer Todd Howard:

Quote:

I think there were some issues with the ending of Fallout 3. We really thought wow, we messed that one up. When we went to DLC, it was like, well OK let's try to fix this, we can fix this. Well should we? We should stand our ground, that was the ending! But it was like, look, we messed this up, let's fix this.

Kane Knight 03-29-2012 12:02 PM

Stop being entitled!

Ive got a Level 19 about to be promoted. I guess I'll try to see if I can promote a second person after.

I picked a Sentinel cause I needed to overload some shields, but he pretty much sucks other than that.

Still need to kill like 2000 more for the 5000 kills. In single player do crew kills count?

Hi Everyone

Today, we received the 400 cupcakes you collectively sent us through your donations to express your feelings about the endings of Mass Effect 3. We want you to know; we are indeed listening to all fan response and acknowledge your feedback. We appreciate creative and thoughtful attempts like this one.

The gesture certainly gained our attention both with its creativity and deliciousness. However, while we do appreciate that fans were creative in how they expressed their views, after a lot of discussion, we decided ultimately the reason that they were sent was not done in the context of celebrating the work or accomplishment of the Mass Effect 3 team. This is a subtle, but important aspect in determining how to pass the feedback to the team.

BioWare regularly works with many deserving charities, as such it was decided that rather than passing out the cupcakes to staff or wasting good food, to donate them on behalf of our fans to a local Edmonton youth shelter. We know that for the kids that have to use this facility, something as simple as a cupcake is a rare treat and would definitely brighten up their day. Thank you to the fine folks at the local youth shelter for accepting the donation and to the fans who donated the cupcakes.

Please keep providing your feedback on Mass Effect 3, we’re still listening.

Apparently they didn't want to pick between A, B and C either...

When people were reasonable, all the Bioware team did was dismiss and point out that it was critically acclaimed, so we must be doing something right.
