>>171095930
Vanguard is the best class in ME.
It was alright in ME1 where it got access to shotguns which made it better than Adept.
They made it really powerful in ME2 where you got Charge, allowing you to go anywhere that an enemy may be (guy on a ledge? You're on the ledge now) and really bring your shotguns to bear.
Vanguard was stronger than ever in ME3, with the addition of NOVA.
I'm personally looking forward to rocking a Vanguard profile in ME:A.

>>171096069
You misspelled Sentinel, my good man. You have a viable tool for every situation, can form a strategy and form Biotic/Tech explosions for ever encounter on top of Armor that grants additional protection. It's the class for the player that can't trust his allies to get the job done. The Batman class. Works well both on it's own and with contributions from others. Versatility in it's purest form.

Don't get me wrong--Vanguards are fun as shit. I chose that class on a whim in ME2. Nova really upped the ante in ME3 but, man, I couldn't play that glass cannon class correctly to save my life.

>>171096220

They saved themselves on the up front work but completely fucked their production pipeline. Until their managers get their heads out of their asses and do it all from the ground up the animations, models, rigging are all going to look 'off'... none of these problems are in BF or any other EA game that bothers to do the technical work.

Jacob was a cardboard character. Strict, disciplined and objective minded. He worked as a character because he didn't share any "quirks" that other characters exhibited. In the midst, however, BioWare forgot to properly equip him with a personality that could stir something in a player beyond sheer apathy.

Liam appears to be really talkative. I've heard him described as the "heart" of the team. He's not bad. I dig him. So far. From the footage we've seen.

>>171096545

Fangirls just don't want to romance a black dude. But it goes deeper than that, girls and gay dudes have the same desire. They want to romance an alien husbando.

One thing that has me interested in this MP is that the matches seem to be shorter. Really blasted my ass how often the matches would go on forever with shitty teams and then end up with a bunch of host switching as people left in ME3.

Unless you kill him that is.

So is this just gonna be a reboot of the franchise? Its in a new galaxy and they're even reusing their Dark Energy shit that they eventually cut out from the OT.

Wouldn't it be easier to just take your time and make a good game than it is to rush a shit one out the door and hope the marketing makes up for the quality?

Like how it's easier to just make a tasty sandwich than it is to drop a steaming turd between a loaf and try to cover it up in lettuce.

Anyone know why the Dark Horse deal is every issue + the first omnibus? Like aren't they just giving the omnibus issue twice then?

Also I think it lacks the Joker issue

>>171101129
They took their time though. Game's been in development since ME3 shipped, if not beforehand.

That it has so many "peripheral" problems with shit like animations and all that probably means they rebooted it a few times and quickly threw shit together towards the end.

>>171101129
It's been five years and the game's already been pushed back by several months once. If it were up to Bioware, yeah they'd probably hold onto it a bit longer but EA's not having any of that.

>>171100569
>Drack is the Krogan

For EA and Bioware there is no such thing as bad press though. It's hilarious.

>>171101129
They had more than enough time, in fact they had the most time for any game they ever released and they STILL ended up with that shit.

The Andromeda galaxy is heading towards ours faster than a bullet, and we are flying towards it.

There's nothing that points out that the Andromeda galaxy has a central black hole, instead it just has a fuckload of stars together, and their gravity act like the black hole in our galaxy.
What will probably happen is that our black hole will start devouring the newcoming stars and grow much bigger.

But that flies in the face of "nothing will happen to us" since whatever is left of the Sun and Earth at the time will more than likely be tossed out of the new galaxy as it is formed.

The thing about galaxies is that they are big, but people don't get exactly how fucking massive they are.
There's very little chances that the solar system will be affected.
There's a lot of space to ''mix''.
Hell, even the nearest star is 4 light years away from us.

>>171103801
>be tossed out of the new galaxy as it is formed.
It could, but it will come back due to the gravity of the galaxy.
There's nothing else nearby that could pull the Earth and the Sun away, so they will eventually return to the galaxy and form an orbit.

>>171103873
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andromeda%E2%80%93Milky_Way_collision

>Based on current calculations they predict a 50% chance that in a merged galaxy, the Solar System will be swept out three times farther from the galactic core than its current distance.[3] They also predict a 12% chance that the Solar System will be ejected from the new galaxy sometime during the collision.[9][10] Such an event would have no adverse effect on the system and the chances of any sort of disturbance to the Sun or planets themselves may be remote.[9][10]

Basically, little low chances of anything happening to us.
But yeah, if we are pushed towards the center of the galaxy, we might get fucked.

If it was for Bioware, they would have released the romance info since from the start like they did with Inquisition. The devs are constantly harassed on Twitter, to the point they can't even call Sara's launch trailer "alternate video" without being lynched. Even the voice actors are being pestered. Tumblr wants to know about the romances now to "psychologically prepare and avoid triggers".

EA probably wanted to get as much attention as possible: at first this may look like bad press, but in reality everyone is focusing on them and those people who swore to boycott them if Jaal or Vetra aren't bi will eventually buy the game all the same. They are just making noise and that's what EA wants.

It is, but that's happening much slower, as in, trillions of years need to pass before things start to change due to the expansion of the universe, until it all comes to an end in about 10^120 years when the last of the black holes evaporates and the universe ends up completely empty aside from a few particles floating around.

Actually that expansion will start much sooner.
We will start noticing it in one billion years.

>>171105383
Yes, they waited some months, but they did not reveal just a few days before release. After the reveal, there were videos and gameplay streams on Twitch showcasing all the characters and the devs talked about them on Twitter.

The guys of MEA outright said they aren't going to reveal the romances, period. That's what actually enraged the Tumblrinas beyond measure: they aren't able to plan a romance without being sure whether their trans man can bang an alien or not and they screamed "WE ARE GONNA GET TRIGGERED" when the devs said they will learn who they can romance only when playing.

>>171107038

Sounds very nice. The music so far's great.

>>171104883
please just tell us this, if Kallo's not a romance I'll have some peace of mind at least

How could you not like Liara?! She's obviously the best girl, best squadmate and best character in the series!

Looks like they're starting to roll out all the web / companion app stuff. You'll be able to collect/take on more of those strike team missions via the web and mobile app once game launches.

Yeah, waifus are fine and all but these people just completely shift the focus of the game to romance and then spend ages on twitter/tumblr/discord writing fanfics and drawing smut. These people don't care about the game part of the game, just the dating and sexy times.

>>171107340
Which is the best new /meg/ meme?

1. Asari-obsessed Mac
2. Vetra "Euthanasia for Thessia" Nyx
3. Big cock Cora

>>171107550
It's the only reason people are still talking about this game after its been show to be a failure in every technical sense.

Because they might be able to fuck a spacebunny or whatever.

>>171107432
Are you from Yurop?
In there they get it 2 days later, both Origin Access and the game's release.

>>171107550
but what if I enjoy both gameplay and waifu/husbando simulator?

>>171105107
How can you see the date? Or is just the "Try this game before it's released starting Mar 16, 2017" on the Origin store page?

The source is fucking origin you nigger.

Oh, absolutely dominant, big cocked Cora. One of the best things, period.

>>171107758
Origin is showing you the regular retail release date. Early Access preload starts in 4 hours.

>>171107585
Is big cock Cora even a meme? I'd say Krogan cock SO GOOD has been way more popular.

Then it's okay, that's how I enjoy the games too. I'm talking about tumblerinas that are the problem.
I think that at this point Bioware is fed up with these people too and they're catering to them just for their cash.

>>171107835

Big Cock Cora hasn't been as active in the last couple of days. Sadly.
Unfortunately, I'm not a writer.

>>171107846
Why the fuck are you mad at me? (Middle post)

I was saying that's the way they've always been, leave it as is.

>>171107996

Megadicks McGee? Cool. Hopefully, he fucks off with Zoey for this one.

>>171107585
I'm loving the way Vetra 'Matriach Mulcher' Nyx keeps getting more outlandish.

If any of you preordered deluxe, you can download the soundtrack now.

I do not understand these meme

>>171107694
Origin access was said to be a typo in the date, no idea about full release though

>>171108045
>tumblrinas
Oh no yeah fuck those people.

I'm worried all I'll have are lame gay humans to romance when the aliens are way more appealing.

But these fucks. They turn it and twist it as Homophobia via Pandering to the straight white male. Utter bullshit.

>>171108348
23rd for Europe.
No idea why.

>>171108316
As far as I can tell Vetra has a problem with asaris. Though I couldn't tell you where it started

>>171108316
The joke is that Vetra hates Asari and destroyed the Asari ark.

>>171108316
One of the fake leakers said Vetra was personally responsible for the Asari Ark crashing into that moon. It took off from there.

>>171108392
I've got no clue either, what other games have actually done this recently? It's weird

Galaxy music is somewhat good, but doesn't even stand a chance against Uncharted Worlds. It's like Coca-Cola and Tesco Cola.

>>171108403
On her character kit the background is an Ark going down in flames. People assumed it was the Asari ark and it progressed from there.

>>171108390
Hopefully all the aliens are bi, so everyone can enjoy them.

>>171102620
Origin's (the company) games made bank as well, didn't stop them shutting them down.
Nor Westwood, Bullfrog, Mythic, or Maxis.
And those studios definitely made profit.

>>171108608
where's the stream going to be at?

>>171108608
>Doesn't even say what each rank does

Wew IGN.

>>171108608
I'm probably going to try and remake my Infiltrator from ME1 with Overload and Invasion.

Considering I'm seeing both guys and girls fawning over Jaal and Kallo like they're doing for Vetra (who might be Bi confirmed), Bi Aliens would be good.
