Do you guys think the Nexus in ME:A will also have some Mass Relay type function to allow travel to other clusters in Andromeda (in later games or DLC)? I know we're stuck in Helios for this one.

>>165409996
Maybe once they get more infastructure.

I think the game will end as they establish contact with the Milky Way

>>165410134
>I think the game will end as they establish contact with the Milky Way

That makes sense. I'm guessing the main quest progression has something to do with the ark arrivals as each ark is supposed to dock into the nexus to finalize it's construction as Citadel 2.0.

Apparently ME was the primary outside inspiration for the Guardians of the Galaxy movie.

Honestly my biggest concern for Andromeda is not being able to move on past the characters I've grown attached to throughout the trilogy.
Like, awesome a female Turian but will she be as cool as Garrus? Will this new Krogan be unique? Hell, I already know I'm going to prefer Liara over Peebee.

Which raises another question, or perhaps it's been asked already but I don't frequent these threads too often, we set out to Andromeda before the milky way even reached closure with the reapers, If this is the case the social changes that occurred in society between everyone are probably absent leaving things more or less the same as they were prior to the events of ME2 and ME3.
Basically what I'm asking is, are these turbans going to be bitter towards humans, Krogan towards Salarians,etc,etc.

Or am I totally fucking up this timeframe.

>>165422153

but knowing bioware i bet they wouldn't have thought of something that complex.

>>165420104
Pretty much the same here desu. ME was able to keep my interest no matter how bad the plot got because it had very likeable characters that you spent 100 hours with. Andromeda doesn't have that goodwill. That's part of why I'd pay for a remastered trilogy with more dialogue scenes and an epilogue but probably won't even bother to pirate Andromeda.

I miss Tali and Wrex.

>tfw they already confirmed the sequel to Andromeda will not be Ryders story carried on
>they dont want to make another trilogy

Why does Bioware think this is a good idea? The reason these characters were so beloved in the first place is exactly because we got to bond with them for 3 or 2 whole games.

>>165422715

Well, they'd at least be aware the a human Spectre stopped Saren from destroying the Citadel (and possibly saved the Council and the 10k asari on that ship). I'm sure that would go a long way to soothing any lingering animosity.

But by and large the Turians seem to be the most accepting of humanity of all the Council races, possibly because of their meritocracy. Both of the Turian Councilors and the Primarch are more willing than the Salarian and Asari leadership to work with Shepard. The Turians and Alliance were already working together pre-ME1 on some pretty major projects (the Normandy is a huge deal, new turian+human ship layout, new drive, new stealth system, and then there's Pinnacle Station which is a retrofitted Turian station with what seems to be a primarily Turian crew being commanded by an Alliance admiral).

Vidinos and Saren are the only two that come to mind who outwardly dislike humans, but maybe I'm forgetting someone.

Krogan would definitely have a problem with Salarians, though. Of course, this could be handwaved by saying the project weeded out anyone with racist tendencies (which would make sense anyway, since it's a multi-species venture and they wouldn't want problems).

I hope ME:A has party banter or something like it. I'm replaying the trilogy right now and everyone is way too quiet.

>>165425303
>I'm replaying the trilogy right now and everyone is way too quiet.
Really? I never felt lonely throughout those games because there was so much talking throughout the mission.
Then again the last game I played before touching the trilogy again for old times sake was DA:I which has banter on the field every ten-thousand miles.

Also that is a really good Garrus. Saved.

ME is great about having party members chime in during your mission conversations. It seems like they almost always have something to add, which is perfect. But they really don't talk to each other at all, except for the occasional elevator ride in ME1 and the handful of scenes in ME2 and ME3 where you can find party members hanging out together on the Normandy. Those scenes are some of my favorite in the trilogy.

It's kind of a pet peeve of mine in a lot of games. You assemble a party of people, but they only ever seem to talk to you. You can assume they hang out behind the scenes, but not showing it's a huge missed opportunity for character and plot development.

I mean, imagine strolling around the Citadel while Garrus and Kaidan/Ashley compare human and turian cultures. Or Wrex giving Tali tips on using her shotgun, which gradually grows into a mentor+student friendship between them. Or Miranda and Mordin talking geeking out together. Or everyone giving EDI terrible romantic advice just to troll Joker.

ME3's pretty good about this, they move around and speak to each other often enough. ME1 at least has the elevators. ME2 is the only game that completely neglected it by having everyone just stare at walls all day until Shepard shows up; even the mission-specific dialogue is short and totally generic. Which is part of why I think it's severely overrated when it comes to how it handled characters.

>>165427697
Oh. That's what you mean. Yes, I absolutely agree on that one. Even in ME2 where they really kicked it up a notch with dialogue, party banter between your squadmates was scarce. That's one thing ME3 got down pretty well, you could actually see your crew acting like a crew and interacting with one another off-duty,

>>165427959
>Which is part of why I think it's severely overrated when it comes to how it handled characters.
This.
I feel part of why I enjoyed ME3 the most ,despite the disappointing ending, was exactly how the characters were handled. Garrus, Tali, and Wrex were pretty much my favorite characters throughout the trilogy and despite the first two getting some attention in ME2, they really did not have much to say. ME3 drowned all three of them in more attention than they had ever gotten between ME1 and ME2.

kinda of reminds me of kojima, he killed the metal gear series because he was unwilling to move forward...

The majority of people would probably disagree with you and I mean a large majority. Again, what's the point of introducing a likeable cast with so much potential only to make them irrelevant in the next game which takes place in the exact same universe around the same time? This didn't work very well for Dragon age seeing how the best characters are still the original cast and the best fanservice between the sequels is usually one of their cameos. Seeing Morrigan again shouldn't have been the most memorable scene of DA:I but it was because the current cast was meh along with the plot.

It's worse having to out do your last game while trying to make sure your players will love the new characters and the completely new narrative just as much or more than the last installment.

All within the same universe and general timeframe.

You really want your cliffhanger ending, don't you? If Andromeda turns out to be shit it won't be because they didn't have five sequels planned.
>>165434404
I don't think anything is entirely confirmed about a possible sequel yet but I think limiting a sequel like that makes the setting feel smaller if it's always the same old faces. It's also a kind of weird mindset, to think more about sequels than how wholesome the game itself is. I think the heads at EA shares your ideas about sequels though so who knows.

What's bad about cliffhangers anyway? Also you can bitch about every single ME game and it's normal but i think most agree it was cool game series overall.
I don't hear the same about DA ( sorry about using it again but that the finest example of BW's shitty trilogy )
Linking games with same protagonist makes them more enjoyable imo. You have progress, you have something you know but can still improve and you can feel like you actually mean something in game's universe.
Or you can always be some new, generic galaxy/planet saving protagonist not known to anyone but eager to prove his worth! Wew!

>>165435310
>Garrus becoming Batman no matter what you told him, Liara becoming another character and an asshole...
It'seems just character development?Both Garrus and Liara became far more interesting in ME2.
It's not like they became entirely different people either. both their personalities are still intact. Hell, Liara and Garrus barely had personalities in ME1 so much so that while I was playing it I was wondering why my friend was so in love with Garrus, get to ME2 and I finally understood why.

>>165435872
>It's not like they became entirely different people either. both their personalities are still intact

They're entirely different characters. Like I love ME's decision to give all 3 games the same core cast and am still asshurt about Andromeda not doing that, but it's just a fact that Garrus and Liara were completely rebooted after ME1.

>>165435610
>Or you can always be some new, generic galaxy/planet saving protagonist not known to anyone but eager to prove his worth! Wew!
This pretty much sums up all my thoughts.
Besides the amount of games with standalone stories are abundant already and greatly outnumber games with direct sequels and returning protagonists.

Well outside of JRPGs which I usually hate.

True and there are many good standalone's but that doesn't change the fact that there were no RPG's i enjoyed more than The Witcher and Mass Effect series. Maybe it's just matter of taste but i will be disappointed if they make new ME's standalones.

>>165435962
>but it's just a fact that Garrus and Liara were completely rebooted after ME1.
But how can they be rebooted if they were literally blank slates? They hadn't gone through anything, we barley knew them. Shit hit the fan and they developed according to their experience. Garrus got jaded and Liara became colder.
This isn't something like, for example, Jack going from well... Being Jack to an absolute softie girly girl in which the shift in demeanor makes 0 sense.

>>165436206
>But how can they be rebooted if they were literally blank slates? They hadn't gone through anything, we barley knew them.

ME1 Garrus: racist belligerent cop with a stick up his ass and an overtly gruff and humorless demeanor

ME1 Liara: shy, naive, introverted scientist who has an obsession with Protheans

They had characters in ME1. Their characterizations were just completely ignored in ME2.

ME2 Garrus: laid back, friendly, snarky sidekick with a quip ready for every situation

ME2 Liara: hardened revenge-obsessed killer and information broker/crime boss

>>165436334
>and humorless demeanor
I would argue that Garrus is just beating people up with that stick now and was still witty in ME1 just not to the extent of ME2 in which, like you said, he was constantly cracking jokes and snark.
I'll give it to you with Liara though, because while her obsession with the protheans still remains she was super introverted. I guess you could argue her time on the Normandy dragged her out of that and made her more sociable.

>>165435610
I can't believe you guys, after ME3 you still want a series with a final game written by completely different people than the first entry and all that crap? The original trilogy would have worked much better with more self-contained entries.

>>165437423
Why not just keep the same cast for the Andromeda scenario but introduce a new conflict with each game and rotate the cast a little? Maybe some characters get stationed elsewhere and return later.
It seems like the reason people want direct sequels isn't because the story would somehow be more enchanting than a stand alone- it's because of the characters. Not everyone wants to just forget about them after spending most of the game just figuring out who they are, nor does everyone want to say bye to their generic hero that will most likely remain nothing more than a generic hero because their story concludes with the end of their game. Mass Effect is an RPG where the player can somewhat dictate their actions and dialogue so people tend to self-insert hard and seriously bond with these characters more than other types of games would normally allow you to.

Basically this is an intense western waifu/husbando simulator taking place in an interesting universe and people want to stick around with their waifu and virtual friends.

>>165438276
Shepard remained a generic Bioware hero for all three games and as said by others earlier the characters are essentially replaced anyway between games since they have different writers and are changed so much they're either someone else or a flanderized version of their past selves. Shieet, they had to kill Shepard at the start of ME2 because he wasn't generic enough by the end of ME1.

The first game wasn't, I'd argue the waifushit and friend simulator parts are what made the sequels suck so hard. The cool RPG space opera parts and worldbuilding took a backseat to streamlined point and shooty and Whedon-esque characters and with that all verisimilitude went the way of the dodo.

Why can't the waifufags just play one of the many dating sim VNs that are pumped out in droves instead of hijacking pretty much the only recent space RPG?

>>165436334

While you can absolutely make that argument with Liara , Garrus' arc in ME1 is that you take this guy under your wing and influence what his view on life is - paragon or renegade basically. ME2 just had Garrus be tilted by the death of Shepard and swing a bit renegade regardless of which path you took.

It was more in character than how they ignored the way you do the same with Kaidan. Renegade path with him made him a foaming at the mouth Cerberus candidate.

>>165437423
ME3 was not written by "entirely different people"

Like, you know the guy who took the lead in ME3 was the ME1 writer who created Garrus and Wrex right. Two of the most beloved characters in the series.

Every single one of these games is a collaborative effort anyway.

Mac Walters knows how to please waifufags and people who are looking for a friend sim but he was pretty bad at the grander story. Doesn't matter though, the point is that stretching a story out over several games will in all likelihood lead to suckitude. Even if the writers remain exactly the same it can still go south, just a vision change by management can fuck everything up. If a story is good you want it resolved within a single game. Now serialised games can still reuse characters and such but each game needs to be enjoyable on its own and feel satisfying and have a definite ending. The Witcher series does this very well, you don't go into the first game expecting an epic story over several games but three seperate games in the Witcher setting staring Geralt. The choices have consequences within each game and are not put on hold to be dealt with in a future game.

That's how I see it anyway.

And they still won't let you play as an alien. I want to play as volus and Jew the Andromeda aliens out of their hard earned space bucks. Or perhaps an Asari jism prism who came to Andromeda to explore strange new dicks, to seek out new life and new kinks, to boldly go where no slut has gone before..

Seriously, it would be fun as fuck to be able to play as an alien, even the more boring ones like Krogan.

Assuming Ashley's around 170cm, I'm guessing she weighs around 60kg.
Compared to Shepard, who I'm guessing weighs closer to 95kg, considering how jacked he is in ME3.

>>165460218
Shep probably weighs a shitload more, considering how loaded up with cybernetics they are.
I'd guess femshep'd be around 110 kg, with broshep being around 140

>>165460585

I don't know how much the synthetic parts weigh, though. It's never explained how large a part of him is synthetic, either.

Seems alright. Ronda Rousey is usually around that weight. I would suspect Liara would weight around 55kg, Jack even less considering her lifestyle.

>>165460585
The main point of modern prosthetics/cybernetics is to weight around the same as real thing, so that rest of the body doesn't react wrong.

Yeah, I checked Rhonda's wiki page, she's 168cm and weighs around around 60kg. But that's also with more muscle mass than Ashley.

>>165460796
Shepard straight up has like, kevlar skin

You can upgrade the bones, muscles and skin, though.
But again, we don't know what it's composed of. You would think that the doctors would pick materials that are both strong and lightweight. Polymers, titanium metal foam, composites and so on.

>>165462301

>>165461901
I think the worst thing about Shepard is that he wasn't even that special to begin with, he was just a grunt good at shooting at things and at one point he had a prothean vision. Also the first human spectre but that was quickly made irrelevant because space politics is too hard for the plebs to follow. Even so he's like the only proactive person in the entire galaxy, resurrected from the dead at one point and personal nemesis of an ancient evil that has existed for aeons.

I hope they won't jump the shark with massive stakes and ridiculous player ego stroking again.

>>165462454

That's usually how I picture her, too. Or women's American football (Legends Football League, in this case), they use a lot of legs and core, as well.

>>165477298

How about for Vanguard where you can roflstomp your way through shields with pure brute force?

>>165477364
Inferno grenades. Not like it matters, Vanguard doesn't really need anything.
IIRC from my adept playthrough, warp+throw explosions work better against shields than Energy Drain anyway.

>>165477759
How does that work when you have to wait for two cooldowns? or are you using the ME1 cooldown mod?

>>165477364
For the Vanguard I used either Energy Drain or Carnage. The latter for Fire Explosions.

>>165478194
I assume it works because Energy Drain has a relatively long cooldown, and warp+throw will also make all the guys around the shielded guy explode

What's more fun: Using a Wraith so you have to be more careful, actually shooting mid-distance from cover and using Nova sometime, or using a Reegar Carbine and just charging everywhere to immediately disintegrate everyone?

energy drain is incredible. it's guaranteed to rid at least one enemy of its shield so that you can set up your biotic combos while reave might not do that in one go.

Biotic explosions work through shields bro, you can explode a reaved enemy even if he has shield left

>>165483031

She's a non-character only serving as the edge lord choice for Samara's loyalty mission, nothing else.

>>165483931
I can imagine the forecasts for it were low by EA given how poorly received DA2 was (so not a huge hurdle to clear), but if the sales were all that bad they would have cancelled the DLC like they did with Exalted March.

>>165484108
we will certainly never know since they haven't released any numbers, but the fact that they are only fapping over the "most successful launch" and nothing else should tell you that sales weren't really that high and they went on an extreme bender after the first month already from the numbers that were released (those without digital sales)

>>165483916
It is assumed to have sold 500k thanks to preorders and day 1 sales, but other than that, nothing concrete. And even that assumption is finicky, because EA never released actual numbers.

>>165484820
I wonder how much they wasted on advertisment. I remember seeing DA:I ads in every single top- and sidebar of every single gaming related site there was 2 months before and after release.

>>165485339
Considering ad space, promotional material, physical presence and the marketing team's cut? $10 mil. But I often hear ridiculous amounts of cash for marketing budget, like a 40$ million game spending the 30 mil on marketing and only investing 10 on the game itself. There was a specific game that this was true about, but I forget which one it was.

>>165485716
Sounds like Skyrim or some other Bethesda hackjob.

Singleplayer Piranha uses it's original stats instead of the rebalanced ones that nerfed it heavily.

So yes. It's that good a shotgun.

>>165500650
Better than the Wraith?

>>165501947
Different uses. Piranha is a close range face mauler like the Claymore, but with it's original stats was much more powerful than the Claymore.

>>165503596
Having tried it out a bit more since my last post, it does indeed seem pretty amazing.
With the smart choke you can use it at medium distance (though it's not as hilariously accurate as the Wraith, obviously), and if you charge somewhere and there's 5 enemies in front of you you can just hold down the mouse button until they all die

>>165504567
It's been a while but I think it also has the thing where if you use incendiary ammo, each pellet does it's own damage-over-time and they all stack and do much more damage than they're meant to

>>165505580
As far as I know (and can tell), that still happens
It's true for the Wraith as well though, most shotguns shoot 8 pellets with individual effects
Also means you get 4 fire explosions on average per shot

Andromeda doesn't look very good.

>>165516986
I do wonder what the reaction will be once Bioware starts showing more of the game. They're releasing in a very crowded field at a time when sequels have been doing very poorly. The reaction has been pretty cold outside of Biodrones/degenerate /meg/-ers.

>>165512361
Heap of shit.

>>165517870
While I think it will be mediocre, I genuinely hope that it doesn't do terribly, because knowing EA they'll just conclude ME has no potential anymore, gut Bioware in response, and effectively kill ME for good. I want some outcome where they get just enough bad sales/backlash to decide backpedaling on ME3's ending and leaving everything familiar behind was a bad idea. Not sure how realistic that is. Probably not very.

>>165517870
It's actually the opposite. Only the "ME3 is the worst thing ever" echo chamber are negative about it.

Once they start the marketing push the majority will be on board with it just like they were with ME3 and DAI

Bit concerned that they've shown so little this close to release desu.

>>165519437
They're going to do full on demos in the next month. They're just doing the marketing strategy that's the new rage. Hold everything until release is imminent then do a steady info stream to release date.

>>165518836
The only 'positive' I see are on the BSN fan forums / bioware youtubers / tumblrs. When I see comments elsewhere it is usually more reserved / commenting on jank animations / or asking why they haven't show more of the game.

>>165519587
This. All companies are learning that you don't have to do months of in-detail leadup and gave advance copies of the game out to reviewers.

The M-8 Avenger owns to Mass Effect 3 (BioWare) and the menu style is kinda similar to Destiny weapon upgrade menu (Bungie)

An idea of one of the weapons of Mass Effect 3 in Destiny (year 1): the famous M-8 Avenger! It's perks:
Solar Damage: Damage that affects badly the shields weak to burning or hot ammo.

Column 1 (Base of the weapon):
-CQB Ballistics: Greatly reduced recoil. Significant penalty to range.
-Linear Compensator: More predictable recoil. Slight boosts to range and impact. More recoil.
-Smart Drift Control: Predictable and controllable recoil. Penalty to range.

Third Eye: Radar stays active while aiming down this weapon's sights.

Column 2 (Personalizated upgrade):
-Perfect Balence: This weapon has extremely low recoil
-High Caliber Rounds: Oversize rounds built to stagger enemies and leave them reeling. Their mass makes a weapon harder to handle.
-Quickdraw: This weapon can be drawn unbelievably fast.

Exotic perk: Plasma rounds: The last middle of the charger probably can make the target not to recover part of it's heal.
