Mass effect 3 - Page 35

weak, but expected:

"Allied forces have matched krogan mercs and batarians with asari justicars for unconventional warfare. Their mission: to create resistance on Reaper-occupied planets to tie down local Reapers.

All N7 Forces will receive a +25% Experience Bonus for participating in Operations in any Theatre of War against any foe. Good Luck!"



edit: on second thought, if you pair the first line with this leaked photo... this weekend could actually be interesting!

Krogan battlemaster!!!!

Though I don't get how a battlemaster or asari justicar fits in, considering the class is the 2nd line. Therefore, I'm guessing fake.

With all my survivability issues, I'd like a weapon mod that fits anything and triples your shields. WAY too often, they just vaporize while I'm looking the wrong way, so if I'm just dented I'd have a better chance to survive. Call me incompetent, but that's the way it works for me...

could be fake, but kind of a strange coincidence that they'd use those terms in the announcement for beachhead.... and it's not like that image was fabricated today, it's been floating around for a little while. (that image is from early/mid march)

have the packs come out?? i haven't gotten them yet and i promoted 2 people over the weekend??

They.re on hold due to some duplication issues.

HOW do people get far in MP if they don't drop the quest for glory and run to the next "thing to do"? The rest of the team was off screwing around and dying, so just after I got the last terminal activated I was swamped and died ending the match. Everybody had a green speaker: doesn't that mean they can hear me saying stuff like "Help!"?

Perhaps they don't realize that you CAN just run by most bad guys unless you run into them?...

randoms. 'nuff said.

as long as you got the last objective and earned credits, what does it matter? 3, 6, 10 - get the money. Then you have something to show for your efforts beyond XP.

yeah xp is easy, it's all about the credits

I'm excited to maybe see some new classes coming soon

still waiting to unlock my last class, turian sentinal

I can only unlock Turian Sentinel and Drell Adept. Wish the game allowed trading. I love those classes but want more.

Considering I keep getting character unlock cards that I don't need when I buy Premium Spectre Packs, I suggest you go for those.

I've got almost all the Achievements I'm likely to get, since Insanity isn't my speed and no Atlas survives my takeover attempts. What I'm trying to do is find a Level 20 character that an untalented player like myself can use to survive Gold matches longer and get one more. I don't want to waste other people's time dying rapidly in a Gold match, so I'd prefer it if people didn't waste mine in Bronze.

It happened twice last night. It's just frustrating to waste gel before I realize that the match is kaput, since buying cheap packs to replenish that cuts into buying the more expensive ones that finally got me an extra ammo reload to carry. Both times I completely missed the message that they'd died since I was trying to get stuff done and they'd been working together on killing rather than covering me. Not sure why that cooperation wasn't directed at the "thing to do".

Eventually I'll either get the last Achievement and stop playing, or I'll get fed up and stop playing, but if there was a way to avoid players who don't give a darn about winning it'd be nice. Maybe a win/loss status you see in the lobby of the last 10 matches for each player. Something. ANYTHING...

man the text gets me excited for new characters soon

First game is over, second is Insanity and can't turn it down. Thanks anyway...

Why can't you turn it down? As soon as you hit that mission, save the game and turn the difficulty down, get the chievo, reload.

Or they were planning on doing this anyway.

New MP DLC incoming Tues.

If I turn it down, the whole Insanity game is invalidated for the Achievement. They don't store that setting in a save, just like how the unlocked bonus powers are available in all saves once you unlock them...

Krogan Vanguard? YES, PLEASE!

That DLC is priced just right! I'll be on tonight if anyone's looking for a teammate. Send a FR if interested.

woot at new mp dlc and free is a great price, might have to save credits up from this weekend to buy new packs when that hits

You are incorrect. If you don't believe me, however, you can just make a save at that mission, finish the game, get the achievement, and then go back to that save.

How come all the Batarians in the campaign have that goofy hook thing on the back of their suits?

DLC looks awesome, I had to change my shorts.

Noted...

How come in MP everyone runs to the extraction point first thing and stands there. It draws every enemy to you. You should run to the other side of the map, wait there, draw enemies to you, kill some, run and regroup somewhere else, then with 30 seconds or less left THEN you run to the extraction point, FULL extraction every time.

Everyone HAS to be standing AND everyone HAS to be in the cirlce. Works everytime.

GETH as playable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SWEET!

And its free WOW!

Ummm, it also works if you stand in the extraction zone and kill everything that comes at you. What hurts is when everybody covers one side and you then find enemies shooting you in the back. THEN you get partial extractions like my last game.

And how do we decide what to do when most Bronze folks say nothing and probably hear nothing?...

The only safe way to ensure Insanity difficulty doesn't get invalidated is clone the game save file since it has copy protection not allowing the game saves to be copied to multiple storage. To clone the game saves file, move it to an USB storage, use USBXTAFGUI to view the contents of the USB Storage and make a copy of the game saves file to another storage. Or you can try to image the entire USB Storage.

It would be very handy if MP has built-in voice order commands (not Kinect voice command) that you can tell your squadmates to "Regroup here", "Attack here", "Go to extraction point", ... At least you can communicate with each other than everyone is guessing that others are planning to do.
