As the previous one got kind off lost in a sea of waifufighting I'm reposting the first part of the Human / Turian fic I'm working on, if people want to check it out.

Still working on the second part where lewd stuff will happen. Around 1/4th of the story currently, but it's getting quite late here and I may not be able to finish it today.

As always, english not my mother tongue, but let me know what you think and if you like the story.

No, the krogan mentionned at the start of the story is just from a joke the human character is telling.
I tend to avoid naming chracters, so the human guy is just "he" or "him" and the turian female is "she" or "her".
Sorry if it's confusing. It's 100% a human and a turian involved.

They did a similar thing with Jaal after insisting that they wouldn't give away romance pictures. One screenshot and devs going on about how good he is to bang.

I can't tell if this was planned to some degree or if they just can't shut themselves up.
>>
>>168963172
i think it was less planned and more a reaction to people getting a lot more hyped over little character details from tweets than they were over the videos that got released
>>
>>168962747
Not sure about that. There's one thing that's not really an outer appearance thing but yet it still kind of is, and that's voice pitch. Female and male Turians are near identical but people can still identify them based on voice. If you'd change the voice and call it a guy but changed nothing else, you think people would argue that Vetra is not a guy?

So one single tertiary sexual characteristic can be enough for people to associate the alien with an equivalent of the opposite (or same) gender of their own species.
>>
>>168963172
*romance info

>>168963172
They can't shut up. It was the same with DAI. People kept asking and the devs couldn't learn to ignore them.
>>
>have the Deluxe Edition preordered
>going to hold off on actually picking it up until Vetra's gay romance is confirmed
>>
>>168963172
They got excited over people actually looking forward to their characters and dropped their spaghetti. Probably because they know they'll get much more hate once the game is out instead of excitement.
>>
>>168963429
The only one they haven't confirmed is Liam. Which is ironic because he obviously is one. But nobody is hyped about him enough to even ask the devs for a hint.

Is this a meme or something? Zaeed was just as much of a caricature as anyone else in ME2 and wasn't all that interesting. Humans in these games are always relatively boring.

>>
>>168964061
To be fair, the first human squadmates are always fucked. They're boring no matter what. His race has nothing to do with it besides female players being less excited to bang him.

I find it hilarious that I see so many SJWs insisting that they LOVE Liam and want to romance him so bad. But then he's barely talked about anywhere.

>>168965002
Ah. I can understand that, I guess. Better than Thane and Kasumi.

I'd fix that by switching it around and have no human squad-mates at first but introduce them later in the story.

Update on writefaggotry :
I'm getting real tired and it's almost 7 am here.

Post unpopular opinions!

I'll start: Samara is my favorite new character in ME2 after Legion.
>>
>>168964061
He doesn't sound like GenericBlackGuy. He just sounds like a mix of Kaidan and Vega who they clearly want to be the bro character of Andromeda. AKA boring first male squadmate.

>>168965202
What's annoying is that this is the time to make human squadmates more controversial and interesting. Since they can have different ideas of how humanity should colonize and how much they should compromise with other races. But Cora and Liam just sound generic. Cora having some relation to TIM and possibly the Cerberus mindset is the only possibly interesting aspect of her, and the devs keep strongly insisting that Cerberus has no role in Andromeda.

EDI had infinitely more chemistry with Shepard than Joker once she got her hot robot body.

To be fair, as much as I like to eme about her being best grrl, we don't know shit about her.

However, I do think she looks cool. Aesthetically speaking, she is the best squadmate.

true, but the nearly nothing we know about her is better than the other characters. a bit of a hard edge, but extremely loyal and protective. there's at least hope for an interesting character and good romance there, unlike peebee for example

I'm really worried that the squadmates in MEA are all gonna be boring. It was obviously a mixed bag in the trilogy, and I'm not as enamored with squadmates like Garrus and Tali as much as most players seem to be, but right now it seems like the only companion with any potential to be interesting is Jaal. And that's just because we don't know anything about him. The rest seem like rando's that would normally be secondary characters.

It's mentioned in CDN that turians are stronger than humans (but not dramatically so, like krogan), and that as a result all weight classes of MMA are dominated by non-humans.

Promotional material always makes characters from any game look awfully one dimensional. Remember ME2?

Yes, a lot of the weapons got revamped reload and firing aims. The smgs are also held correctly by your character now.
>>
>>168986467
Always throws me off that it's a revolving chamber gun but reloads are just slapping one single thing into the back of the stock. I mean I understand why since it's a heatsink replacement not rounds in the chambers, but still.

Also looking back at that video now I somehow never noticed before that it almost looks like the Tempest gets a cloaking device? Unless it's just deliberately simplified animation.

This is probably going to trigger /pol/, but BioWare's attempts at inclusive writing always land like a ton of bricks there are probably many reasons for this. To start with they're bad video game writers, writers with any talent don't generally waste their time working on video games movies and TV are where the money is at. Even the Hallmark channel movies that we like to laugh at make a fuckton of money. You can count the people that would be good enough to make a living writing scripts in Hollywood on one hand; Chris Avellone, Druckmann, Hennig. Second, and this is closely related to the first, BioWare is made up of a bunch of goofy Canadian white people. The only experiences they have with people of color are the same as your average /pol/tard. That is; news, movies, comic books, maybe if we're lucky a book or two (though they're probably some type of genre that has traditionally not been littered with PoC writers). What does that leave us with? That leaves us with shitty characters like Jacob who never transcend the same usual stereotypes and hack writing. Characters like Krem who have nothing going for them besides, "I'm not adhering to the norms of my culture, look at me!" You can't imagine any of these characters having any kind of inner life, because BioWare themselves can't imagine any of these characters having any kind of inner life.

So according to Shinobi, squad commands have been pared down to just positioning and focus. You can no longer order your squadmates to fire off specific powers to set up combos.

Seems like yes. That's exactly the motivator. They saw Bungie doing this with Destiny and even though it hasn't pushed more people from PvE into Crucible they decided to keep it up. Maybe they think it will work better for ME since there's no adversarial MP.

Quests that include more investigation in Andromeda does excite me. I don't mind 'detective vision' when it's used in cool ways, detecting blood splatters and trails, scents like in The Witcher 3, etc.
It'd be really nice if they did things like scanning the miniframe onboard a hardsuit to get biometric and GPS data, seeing where a character went and checking things like injuries and when he died. Then you'd follow blood trails, electronic signals, and so on.
It looks like they're making quests more than just 'walking around and kill everything'. I do also hope they do more quests like the beginning of Mars and the monestary in ME3. Very low light, you only see with you flashlight/possible nightvision.

As promised, here is part 2 of 2 of the human / turian pairing I was working on.

In my previous storiesI never really delved into very graphic lewd smut writefaggotry, so I wanted to try my hand at something more risqué. I also never wrote kissing scenes before, those are thought to get right, but I wanted to try.

As always, english is not my mother tongue and I was dead tired writing some part of this one. Excpect mistakes and typos.

It doesn't cut out much of anything. I think it flows fine. Some lines even make more sense in this context, like Joker's comment about saving the galaxy or Wrex being on the Citadel to discuss krogan expansion. It's definitely worth getting, small changes but really improves the experience if the DLC is framed as an epilogue and "one last hurrah" + victory party deal.

Remember to pair it with JAM so you can play it afree the credits.

it just means you'll miss out on equipping your whole squad with the same armors.

if you have the dlc do pinnacle station, beat the times then go for the extra mission, get the apartment, use the terminal to get good equipment. it's a risk though and cost credits so save before you try, reload if you just get sub level gear.

>no hate
It's like wishing there would be no angst or love or other completely natural feelings. Stop being new-age tier stupid. You are not a Jedi, you are a human being, so it is not about naively trying to discard those emotions, but only about keeping (and/or unleashing) them under your control.

Also ignoring what bothers you instead of trying to resolve it, is the way of the slaves and women, anon.

do you have a mother? or a sister? or aunts or a grandmother who loves you? do you not understand how disrespectful what you're saying is?
or don't you care?
but that's up to you, being affected by whatever has taught you that women don't know how to resolve problems.

I have mother, grandmother, sister and a girlfriend. My relationship with all of them is great, thanks for asking. But I also have a father and I know what I have in my pants, you know? I'm not saying that women don't know how to resolve problems, I'm saying that women tend to approach and resolve problems obviously differently and tend to ask men for solution in any relationship, where is trust - which is perfectly normal and I'm glad to do that for them. Men were however always the main driving force behind problem solving and in extension, civilization itself.

But hey, if you enjoy having your issues resolved for you by others, while you dwiddle with the finger in your ass at home, no hate. It's a free country. Ignoring the issue is not only the way of women and slaves, it is also how democracy dies. You know that cliché stuff with "Good man doing nothing", right.

I've never played a biotic class in ME, but I was wondering about it just now, mainly, we know that Shep is an L3, but Kaidan's an L2, how can that be if they're only 3 years apart in age? As far as I femember, BAaT was open until Kaidan was in his mid/late teens, so Shep probably would have been scouted too?

ME: Infiltrator says that shit is ceramic and tungsten. There's no way it's lightweight.

Modern day shit is made from ceramic and steel plates, seems the writer of that is one of those autists that think armour = too heavy to even move in normally. As long as armours weight is distributed properly on your body it's really not as bad as the weight implies.
>>
>>169047290
Wait, me armor isn't even powered? Even now we are working on that shit.
>>
>>169047898
> Modern day shit is made from ceramic and steel plates

One tungsten is much heavier than steel, two we stopped using steel plates precisely because they were too heavy (also spalling), three modern hard body armor just covers most of the torso and half of the head. Yet, despite that limited coverage, soldiers often remove parts of it (e.g. side plates) because it's so dang heavy- a medium IOTV with all the plates is 33.6 pounds. Throw in an Advanced Combat Helmet, an ACU, and some combat boots and you're already well over 40 pounds, and the soldier hasn't even started to carry any gear yet besides his battle dress. ME armor on the other hand provides full body coverage. Your average hardsuit probably weighs around 50 pounds minimum.

> As long as armours weight is distributed properly on your body it's really not as bad as the weight implies.

For a normal suit, sure. Wouldn't be considerably worse than plate armor (especially considering better nutrition and gene mods in the future). Something extremely bulky like the N7 Defender is a different matter.
>>
>>169048218
Some is, some isn't.
>>
>>169048364
Steel plates still get used. We used to carry 80 pounds of kit all the time, it's really not as bad as it sounds. Again it just sounds like the author is one of those people that think knights couldn't be get up if they tripped and stupid shit of the sort. If something like the defender had a powered exoskeleton then it wouldn't really limit you much.

>>
Just popping into this general to ask a few questions since I expect people here to know more then anywhere else.

Mass Effect Andromeda, will it be open world and have more replayability than the trilogy?

I don't mean by replayability like "Reply the entire fucking campaign" I mean like, redo missions or have repeatable missions. I actually like doing shit with the ship, characters and equipment I worked my ass to get rather then toss it all aside and redo the game with a few different dialogue choices.
Anyone know?
>>
>>169050365
But this anon is right too and I think I'll be doing that from now on because I don't like arrival that much and won't play it and ME3.
>>
>>169050234
Shadow Broker after the Suicide Mission does reference that you've already completed it.

I guess it's that SB kind of feels better as a wrapping up kind of thing, since doing it before the SM mission just has to have it making excuses for Liara not really helping you.
>>
>>169050532
Seems like it's going to follow the dragon age inquisition route of having a lot of stuff to build up and improve as you explore. Hopefully it's not as fucking tedious. Replayability wise no one can say, no ones played it, but again is it's like dai then each area will have a bunch of side stuff to do, and once again hopefully not as fucking tedious.

No problem. From the PR stuff each planet is meant to be like a bigger dai area, with a bunch of content on each but with more of a story to it instead of fetch quest shit. But this is just PR so it could well be bullshit.

If you do pick it up though remember to grab a pre owned copy, becuase fuck EA and "bioware".

>>169051695
PeeBee's already been seen in a mask.

They managed to create unique helmet designs for everyone, including the squid head Angara, but they still refuse to do it for Asari because of looks. BioWare's "SJW" isn't as extensive as many act. Unfortunately the hang ups they have are fucking stupid.
>>
So is no quarians confirmed I was never the biggest fan of them but it seems weird to just drop them from the game, same for the space niggers.
>>
>>169052757
They said they were going to explain it. Actually, Quarians going to Andromeda would have been harder to explain. Why would they risk sending off a ton of their people to a place they could possibly die instantly when they already live in a fragile state?

I'm sure we'll see one or two, though. And they'll probably find some way to get Quarians there for future games.

The helmets thing started in ME2 and boy do I wish it was done away with.

Salarians have their own unique helmets in Mass Effect 1, but nope Mordin gets the mask.

Samara, Miranda, Jacob, JACK for fucks sake.

I really wish they'd stop and give Pelessaria, Jaal and Drack a damn suit for extreme conditions but I assume they're going by ME2 rules when it comes to Squadmate outfits and that sucks.

By the way asari don't even need special helmets they can use human helmets just fine.

At least it's worth it to see the Quarianfags cry.

>>169053403
Jaal at least will probably have a helmet. They have special designs for Angara.

>>
>>169054990
>But why even bring them for a long distance colonisation effort?
Because they're popular with the fanbase. Almost EVERY question about the logistics behind this game can be answered with one response: because EA wanted to milk the franchise for a bit longer but the setting was permanently fucked up by ME3's ending to the point where they literally had to move everything to another galaxy. Yes it's all retarded. Everything about this game is stupid. We've known this since before it was even officially announced.

But between the two of them, when there's only so much room for races NOT funding the expedition, it makes slightly more sense to take the one race that has yet to die naturally of old age and is from such a huge population nobody will care if a few of them go missing than the Quarians. I'm willing to bet one or two made it in, but that's it.
>>
If a couple Quarians and Volus didn't come to Andromeda via the Grab bag of races in the Nexus that's BS. But at the same time it's not like they'll never be in and we'll never see these races in Andromeda, they just might not be in the game right now.

You want a race nobody really cares about? Drell.
No one is complaining about there won't be any Drell coming with.

I have heard people want Quarians to come back, Geth, Vorcha, Volus even Batarians but not one person gives a shit about the Drell.

Seems unlikely, since there's already a goddamn PIRATE COLONY made up of Milky Way inhabitants.

Of the mere 100,000 people who came, enough of them were hardened criminals that they made a pirate colony to violently take advantage of the non-existent economy.

From the briefings:

>With the Arks unable to refuel by traditional means in dark space, the journey to Andromeda is only made possible by the ODSY Drive System. The ODSY is a massive experimental drive core specifically designed for this trans-galactic voyage. It is capable of recycling static energy that would typically cause a starship to explode, instead storing it to power the Ark’s primary systems. Meanwhile, an electromagnetic ram-scoop will gather hydrogen from the Ark’s surroundings, converting it into fuel as needed.
>>
>>169056313
not him but another thing. don't the krogan love battle? its mentioned how without something to fight they start fighting eachother. the krogan are far more likely to start a fight with each other and damage the ship than defend against some legit threat. asari commandos would be more than enough for security. there is no rational reason to bring the krogan along

It seems mainly just that there wouldn't be anything of enough use to be worth going to andromeda for. They don't really care about discovering new planets since it would likely take just as long to adapt to them as any planet in the Milky Way.

Also, quarians arent one of the council races, and it seems like they aren't considered very well by them either.

The krogan probably only have a prominent place in the mission because they're good heavy troops
>>
>>169056819
if you were actually expecting combat against another intelligent species it would almost certainly be a space battle in which case the krogan would be useless. its actually poor writing that they were made to be worth as much as they were in mass effect 3, considering the game explicitly states they have no serious combat ships of their own.

They were important as ground troops to help Palaven and other warzones. Keep Reaper forces at bay, extract people who couldn't get off the Planet.

>>
>>169057293
>>169057293
Krogan would be worth having along even if it was just to pit against natural wildlife, but as it is, they're just more hardy than any council race.

that's true. forgot about that shit. by that point i think i was starting to tune out the story. still i feel like as a whole, the importance of ground troops was exaggerated in mass effect 3. you would think a fleet as advanced as the reapers would just be able to bombard the surface of every planet and kill everything that's not deep underground. supposedly they only wanted to harvest the humans this cycle so there was no point wasting any time with the other homeworlds

>>
>>169058512
Turns out Andromeda had an ancient alien race that had created "Space Relays" that are able to propel ships along systems.
>>
>>169058512
>>169058512
I imagine the idea to travel to different galaxies was in the works a long while before the actual start of the mission.

Hell, the andromeda initiative was founded ten years before the start of the mission, and there'd probably be scientists working on it before that, too.

Sure it's kinda shitty they didn't use tech that already existed in the series, but on the other hand, it's not like shep's adventure would lead them to learn about experimental ( and probably classified ) tech like that
>>
>>169058654
It's an enormous waste of resources to develop something like that when streamlined travel tech exists unless you want to go somewhere Mass Relays can't take you.

So it did get invented. For the Andromeda Initiative. Nothing unbelievable about that.
>>
>>169059041
Why is it so in unbelievable that scientists would think about inventing a way to travel between galaxies so their peoples can expand more? Especially considering how many races there are in the Milky Way galaxy?
>>
>>169059468
It's not? They came up with it for the idea of what became the Andromeda Initiative. So it exists now. No point in asking why it didn't exist before like people are doing.
>>
>>169058512
Someone, I think it might have been Liara's father, talks about how there have always been people who want to develop FTL and non-Relay travel further, or even just replicate Relays, but the major governments wouldn't back them because they were kind of seen as kooks and a waste of priorities.

A completely private project like AI makes sense to actually get the funding and assets to get it done

>>169059812

>>
>>169059940
That's what I meant by this >>169059041
>>169059041
Official governments wouldn't fund something so expensive. That would have been regarded as a complete waste of resources back before things went to shit. And that's why it didn't happen before. Something private like Andromeda Initiative makes much more sense. And clearly they wanted to keep it private, thus we didn't hear about it during the trilogy. It's not public knowledge.
>>

Now that I think about it, what are the chances that this will be how other races left behind in this round get to Andromeda in future games? What if because of the imminent Reaper attack, this kind of knowledge did become more widespread by those in the know and some groups chose to use it and bail in smaller, secret arks?

Is it just me or is there a problem with uploading images right now?
>>
>>169060690
Not just you, nobody can upload images.

>>169060690
Gookmoot disabled it to save bandwidth costs

>>169060758
Permanently?
>>
>>169060917

Yeah. Discussion only now. Pictures go on imgur.
>>
>>169060917
pretty sure it's all speculation so nobody really knows. i would imagine that if this is a permanent change, then it probably only applies to night hours when traffic is lower. still sucks because >no images on an imageboard

They need a good way to raise $$$ and fast

>>169066303
Is that why there's a ton of ads on the homepage?

Well it's not going to work. For 4chan to be profitable they'd need to get rid of a handful of boards /wg/, /diy/(it's a fuckin ghost town 90 percent of the time), /his/ was definitely a mistake, /pol/ seeped in and started "claiming" it.

Maybe get rid of a couple of the porn ones too like /s/

Who's that supposed to be?
>>
>>169067216
One of the leaders of the expedition and the person in charge of the Hyperion. Voiced by a trans actor, Jamie Clayton. Potentially a romance.

>Implying dadRyder isn't hitting that

She's not going to be an option for us.

>>169067329
>Potentially a romance

>>169067329
>Girl(male) romance option.

I knew the Gods would heed my prayers.

No way, she'll have way more important things to do than to make time for Ryder.

Against her will?

>>169069262

>>169069262
