Well, would you?

Reposting
I'm in the vault on Kadara and activated it. During the escape I took a wrong turn and died. The autosave puts me back DURING the escape, the field is gone and I cannot interact with anything.
The problem here is, when I died it made like 5 autosaves all at the same spot and my latest manual save is 3 hours old.
Is there anything I can do to still escape? Or do I need to redo 3 hours of bullshit?

What are bioware's social media accounts? So I can complain to them directly?

So the main game is fine, but the multiplayer is crashing like a motherfucker. I just had sound completely go out during wave 3, played for another couple rounds, and then it finally hard crashed. I shouldn't be having hardware problems, Is there some kind of log or anything?

Some questions for someone who might buy this game because I have too much money.
1.Does this game have open world elements?
2. Does this game have replayable missions, not asking if newgame+ but rather like repeatable bounties or something?
3. Do enemies respawn anywhere?

>>171719856
It feels faster paced, like they took a few things from Warframe or something. I like it, but it's different. Less tactical feeling.

>>171719856
i feel like i either need to lower the difficulty or level my dude up more to take advantage of the fun hover stuff, since you get kinda pooped on if you're out of cover for too long

other than that it's a bit of an improvement overall, besides the lack of squaddie commands. the ai is better than da:i but that's honestly a low bar to get over

You hover to kill enemies that are in cover, but your abilities won't hit/are on cool down.

Personally I love zipping around. I tend to save my Energy Drain for when I'm hurt or when I want to hover for a kill.

Yes, you have a couple of HUBs, and you have a handful of planets with side quests, places to explore, and you can travel through them as you wish.

No idea, but I think the multiplayer fills that role.

MP is tied into the single player though. You assign a mission as Ryder in SP, then go off and play that specific mission in MP as a trooper, and earn rewards that feed back into SP.

The game really hinges on you having the autism to love the atmosphere enough to ignore the flaws of them.

Sadly I am stricken with that autism and genuinely love the way the scanner and research mechanics in the game perfectly tie in to the exploration asthetic of the game. The only thing that would be better is if we could go full x-com- capture and disect races.

I wouldn't even call it autism. This game is rewarding for people who don't need to be told what to do. I am Voeld right now and there is SO MUCH shit to do here and explore, but literally none of it the game tells you to explicitly do. I feel like I did when I was a teenager, where games allowed me to just get lost in the fictional world and I would just spend time exploring the map.

Anon, your Ryder has fetal alcohol syndrome.

Are there any known level or ability point exploits yet? I'm only at level 4 and I already find it frustrating that the game is showing me a million powers/power evolutions and gear that I can't use until level fucking 30. I want to speed this up, like you can in Inquisition using that item duping glitch on the power amulets.

if we don't complete missions we fail

They tell you your job at the beginning of the game. You are to eliminate hostile threats and find ways to make planets hospitable for future colonists. There are a ton of missions on the planets to help you do this, and the game doesn't hold your hand as to what you are supposed to do. The only help you get is a bar that tells you how close you are to finishing your mission of making the planet viable, which actually is a huge help.

Honestly I love the setting of this game. Its such a contrast to the primp and proper universe we had in the original trilogy.

I think I'll have to restart with another class or get another profile, Infiltrator seems too bad.

So I got me a hurricane, and it's pretty fun, I pretty much just spit rounds at everything.

Infiltator's bigges tnad most OP ability, the slowdown, is gone, gone forever. Instead you get the ability to see enemies through walls and shit with scopes on any weapon, plus you know, lots of headshot extra damage.

Are cutscenes running like crap for anyone else? i got a pretty solid 60FPS during gameplay but cutscenes keep stuttering like mad sometimes. I even just had the game lock up during one.

Why would you restart? You can reset your skills in the medbay once you get your ship.

Your starting profile means literally nothing since resetting and putting points in will give you a different one.

I started out as adept, switched to vanguard, and finally settled with infiltrator because the first two were absolute shit. Now I'm actually having fun with the combat.

It helps that I found a Black Widow on Eos.

>>171723978
Yes. And I've only had a couple of encounters at this point since the game is so front heavy with exposition and cutscenes. I just landed on Eos and I'm like 4 hours in. The only detour I took in that time was a single MP match that was fucking absurd. I tried to do one of the Bronze missions from that Apex terminal and it put me into a Gold match(with lvl 1 everything) with nothing but bullet sponge enemies that do entirely too much damage how how hard they are to kill. Those guys that float around in the orange bubbles take a fucking hour to kill.

Stop rushing in like an idiot and use your sniper rifle. Only use the cloak when you are forced in close quarters combat. I found infiltrator hilariously OP because enemies don't react to sniper shots past a certain range.

>>171724431
You get way more xp for completing quests than killing things.

I don't usually agree with the LGBT cult, but this time I gotta admit, it is pretty shitty you only get two gay dudes, neither squadmates, and only one even remotely serious. I mean, if it was the same way with lesbians it'd be whatever, but lesbos can fuck two squaddies. Not even mad because I feel slighted or anything, I'm no after all, plus bioware is usually retardedly progressive, but it just reeks of extreme laziness. Same shit with the other fade to blacks like Vetra, you know? Just, damn, if you're going to advrrtisr the romance shit so heavily this time around, at least put the proper time and resources into it you cheap, lazy bastards.

- Don't play female unless you want to have Downs, be a minority, or both
- Vetra would be, hands down, the best romance option if there were an actual sex scene
- Get real familiar with the thruster, it will save your ass

Bruh that is the most believable part of this mess. Humans would totally do something retarded like this, we as a species are obsessed with pioneering. Even now that we've mapped all the land, we're exploring the bottom of the sea and nearby space in a desperate attempt to quell our boredom.

>>171725950
They leave for Andromeda between 2 and 3. It may be 600 years later but that hardly matters to them, it's not like there's been 600 years of technological/societal advancement.

>>171725921
I don't think they wanted to make a prequel with ME3's eventual ending hanging over everything

Also setting anything during the first contact war (( which is the only real possibility because they don't want you playing aliens)) would be a fucking snooze fest because you could barely even call those few little scraps with the turians a 'war'

>>171725946
>You take a lot more damage here than you did in the original trilogy, and health regen works a lot differently
You also, on average, half half the health and shields of your squad mates.

Also is there even any health regen, outside of the medpacks?

It's impossible to make an attractive FemRyder. I've spent an hour in the character creator. I used the blonde preset and she still ends up looking Asian somehow. I might give up and go with default appearance. She's dorky and I've grown fond of her.

Okay so looking for a little advice though I'm sure you fucks have answered these questions 100x before.

Always loved the series. 1 was incredible as far as story went despite lackluster shootan. 2 was less compelling story-wise but the refined gameplay and graphical improvement was great. 3 was the least memorable but still a decent game and I enjoyed it.

Mass Effect has always been a favourite series of mine but as money is a little tight right now I'm wondering if all the raging about the game should be enough to deter a series-long fan from immediate purchase.

Buy now or just wait for a sale or some shit? Was so hype for this game pre-release and everyone shitting down it's throat really broke me poor heart.

But instead of taking advantage of this and going all out and getting really creative, they instead throw in a bunch of generic aliens and worlds and mostly have us dealing with races from our own galaxy. Granted, the Remnants are really neat (in relative terms, the whole "advanced ancient aliens" trope is still done to death) but that's one element.

Liam said it best, missed opportunities.

I'll have to look it up at some point
in ME2 my BRRRT was the tempest submachine gun. Didn't evengive a fuck that it sprayed wildly with prolonged firing. Was fun as fuck trying to control that beast

This game is forcing me to get good at sudoku

Neat.

Hey fellas, quick question while my installation finishes. These facial animation bugs; are they worse (or different?) on default appearance or custom appearances? I figure if there is a noticeable improvement one way or another I'll play with that.

Pretty much one of my biggest concerns. Face textures and animations can be fixed or patched. the underlying story cannot

>>171726076
like 20-25ish percent

there's a skill deep in one of the tech passives that bumps it up to 50

>>171726846
Honestly? I feel that customRyder has better facial animations than Scott/Sara

Now you can sit in starbucks and look like a pseudointellectual

Test. Looks like she got some stank on her upper lip but I dunno

Default. CustomRyder has better, if only because you can fix that shit

I respect you BRRRT bros, but I love muh black widow. The replicator single shot looks nice, too. Just that single shot massive damage with a massive visceral bang.

So, I told my sister that the planet we found was fucked, but that our father was well.
Did I fuck up?

>>171726846
>Bugs
Thats just shitty animation Anon. Anyway:
In my experience custom Male Ryder is better with the facial animations, making his face have a default expression that wasn't a blank stare helped

>>171726952
Your sister is a cripple now.

>>171726996
But she recovers, right?

>>171726952
>Not being truthful
Speaking from experience, its alot worse to find out the truth after someone lies about it than just finding it out immediately.

>>171726942
You sniperbros are alright.
But only when you shoot out that motherfucking Kett Elite's shield drone. SHOOT IT YOU SNIPERFUCKS.

>use blonde preset
>finally make somewhat acceptable character
>look at brother in comparison
>he's white
>I look fucking Asian next to him

Fuck this. I'm going to see how she looks in the first cutscene and if she still looks NOT WHITE I'm going back and just using Autistic Sara.

WHY CAN'T WE MAKE WHITE PEOPLE?? I'm a moderately liberal dyke. I'm happy there's customization for other races but seriously WHY THE FUCK CAN'T I MAKE A CHARACTER THAT LOOKS LIKE ME??

You weren't in a coma though. My reasoning was getting her excited to see andromeda and her father would be more incentive to come out of the coma than telling her dad's dead and everything is fucked.

Does this level of blonde seem acceptable against RyderBrown(tm) skin?

>>171726931
Yeah there's something weird going on with the skin around the mouth, might just be the lighting though.
