The game alone literally tells you that the reapers strength relies on stealth, warping to the citadel and taking control of the network of the sentient species that inevitably runs through it once they discover it, they aren't even that strong once their shields go down and they probably aren't even bigger than a Mass conveyor of 40k. Their invincibility and godlike status was just Sovereign's delusion, which was proven wrong. Some guerrilla warfare and simple final alliance of all biologic races would have been a decent, less convoluted ending.

Yo MPfags, Someone on Reddit leaked the upcoming MP characters and Maps.
There were Bios too but I don't think you guys would be interested (Even though I like the Bios for MP characters)

>Firebase Paradox
Already known and shown.

>Angara Exemplar (Male): Overload, Deployable Combat Shield, Energy Drain
>Turian Agent (Male): Tech Recon Probe, Cloak, Proximity Mine
>Salarian Architect (Male): Deployable Combat Shield, Incinerate, Remnant VI
>Firebase White Revised (don't know what that means)
I'm disappointed Salarian Architect is an Engineer Type since I don't really enjoy using Engineers.
But I do like the sound of Turian Agent.

As if the enemies that have built in one shot melee range abilities weren't annoying enough, let's add it to ALL the mobs.

Why do developers think bullet sponge enemies that can one shot you are fun?

alright so i just finished Andromeda and all i have to say is I miss Jack

no but seriously, without giving out spoilers my main problems are how childish the game is, why are their so many jokes in so many conversations? Not once did I ever feel a serious tone to the game.

also, except that scene were Jaal cries(i forgot why) I never cared for any team mates, even Vetra who i r'manced. and I thought their personal missions burdensome and boring

one last thing. why are Ryder's legs so fucking stumpy?

Re-posting my review cause bored.

I'm at 88% with 64 hours and I just finished the main story and I agree with Gamespot's 6/10 review.

The combat can be fun but the gunplay is not up to par with current games. All the guns felt slow and unresponsive no matter how I modded them or built my character. The active cover system was also a huge pain in the ass often not registering many objects as cover or somehow allowing enemies to shoot me while in full cover.

I also felt that the writing in the main story was boring, predictable, cliche, and full of constant plotholes requiring either sheer coincidence, dumb luck, or ryder to walk in and use AI wizardry to clean everything up with very little satisfying buildup or explanation. Most of the conflicts that happen can be simplified by saying "The kett do something dumb, ryder walks in, says "im the pathfinder" then SAM casts a spell and all the bad guys either die or run away". Terrible pacing with 6 missions of act I, one of act 2, one of act 3. It was paced terribly.

It also reuses tons of plot and story points from Mass Effect 1. Once again a human who is somehow better than everyone at everything has waltzed into an unfamiliar galaxy fish out of water setting with nameless faceless bad dude and an evil guy who exists solely to be evil that are just a distraction till the real ancient evil shows up, and there's a mysteriously absent ancient race who left behind ancient tech that helps the hero win against insurmountable odds. It wasn't done nearly as well as it was done in Mass Effect 1 and felt more like a first draft of a fanfiction.

Many of the narrative based side missions fall prey to being derivative as hell too. With such a massive galaxy it's hard to believe that there were so many people related to characters related to the OT characters, or had worked on projects or for corporations that you saw in the OT. While many of these stories were interesting by the end it just felt derivative and lazy.

Speaking of the nameless faceless bad dude and an evil guy who exists solely to be evil, he was one of the worst villains I've ever seen. He does nothing the entire game except shake his fist at ryder the very very few times they interact, and has no character arc or motivations except being evil for the sake of evil and doing dumb things to move the plot along and then in the most anti-climactic final boss fight since Fable II he literally just up and dies after you hack 3 terminals. What a fucking joke.

Speaking of poorly written, lets talk about the Angora. All the races in the OT had huge backstories, cultures, wars, loves, and hatreds for each other with various fleshed out reasons why. Take a look at the Angora and it falls pretty short. They only know the scourge attacked them 800 years ago and the Kett attacked them 80 years ago. Literally no other history or back story or lore besides that. Their culture doesn't compare to the cultures of other races. They're basically humans with big families who talk about their emotions a lot. That's it. They are pointless and forgettable. Even the Elcor were deeper and more fleshed out.

The dialogue was mostly average but for every moment of great dialogue that was funny, sweet, clever, or painful, there were two more that were cringy, poorly written, and stupid. The dialogue was so bad at parts that it was almost insulting. The dialogue wheel felt more like 4 different tones to say the same thing unless you had to make a choice between two things, which was basically paragon v renegade all over again without the fun of interrupting conversations or feeling like you had any effect whatsoever. I honestly feel that the dialogue wheel changes were the worst part of the game and severely stripped away the ability to feel like YOU were making choices greater than "say something uplifting in a serious voice""say something uplifting in a friendly voice""say something uplifting in a silly voice""say something uplifting in a professional voice".

As with the dialogue lots of voice acting was great, but lot's of it was phoned in with a few scenes feeling like a sound engineer stitched together parts of multiple sentences to make a new one. It was very inconsistent. The dialogue wheel also caused characters to wildly change emotional tone in the middle of conversations resulting in absolutely bipolar exchanges.

The soundtrack was basically unnoticeable, which is pretty bad coming from a series with such a recognizable and unique soundtrack.

I could go on for hours about the faults in this game, such as how it drowned in tacked on mechanics like scanning or crafting that everyone learned were garbage in 2014, or the terrible animations, constant graphical glitches, or game breaking bugs that honestly shouldn't exist in a $40,000,000 game by a AAA studio, but I've already invested over 60 hours and I'm really just done with it. I'm too tired of this game to even finish listing my problems with it in this post. It wasn't horrible, it wasn't great, it was just okay. It deserved its 6/10 and I hope they hire better people to work on sequel.

Sara is for meme playthroughs and laughs.

Scott's personality is also better suited to the role of Pathfinder than Sara's is.

They do get some lines different but mostly is just the BroRyder having a better voice actor that sounds energetic and not half asleep, and I agree with anon here >>172006065

Is it just me or do squadmates do zero fucking weapon damage? Even specced for weapon damage, they do fuck all.

Nigga you dumb
The "rambling nervous love confession" trope is as old as dirt.

I thought that was the case at first too, but I genuinely had to restart as Scott due to how bad Sara was to watch in cutscenes and conversations.

>>172006686
No. 100% would be double the rate, so 4s. Recharge is like 3.8s at 110%

>>172006686
It means the rate at which Charge cools down is 110% faster.

The speed at which it happens is what's specifically affected, not the length of time in which it happens.

>>172006760
They don't. I'm playing on Normal difficult and just cleared out a kett base with Vetra and Jaal. Jaal's sniper rifle literally took off 1/5 of a trooper's health bar per shot, and Vetra's minigun with Overcharge on at point blank range could only get a normal grunt down to 1/3 health before she had to reload.

They'd be a lot more useful if you could actually direct their powers. And change their weapons.

You act like that anon is cherrypicking, but Sara comes off as "I have something wrong with my ability to pick up social cues and respond to situations" in every single conversation.

At least if you are playing as Scott you can try and convince yourself she has brain damage from extensive Cryo or being in a coma.

Anyone got favorite guns yet?

I've not found one I'm too happy with yet. The Remnant Assault Rifle, I think it was called Sweeper was pretty neat but the things got a really high first shot recoil multiplier so it's not as accurate as I would like. Looks awesome though and the heat mechanic means I never need ammo crates again.

>>172006760
In the OT they did a fraction of your own damage. That's probably true here as well. Also, if you compare their power damage, like liams overcharge, you'll see that those are gimped as well. Best choice is either tank to soak aggro since they have 3x your health pool, or for cc like peebee's pull.

>>172006957
I don't know what to tell you, sport. You have low standards.

You and I clearly define "fine" differently.

>>172006860
>>172006883
I see. So, recharge speed is even worth less than I originally thought. It'd be nice if the game offered tooltips for skills to see their new cooldown/damage values after investing points.

>>172007042
the sandstorm(at least i think that's what it's called)

i dont remember what it's called

Should I mine for water or for Gas?

>>172007042
Honestly the pre-order/deluxe bonus guns are pretty good. The assault rifle with the 3 round burst is really satisfying to use early to mid game.

>>172007042
Equilizer. Short range, higher damage version of the sweeper. Throw a clip increase, and damage mod and it's golden.

Basically I just drop the turret, and fire incinerate at my target before I charge. And thanks to Vetra and the turret having normal attack that prime targets, I always have options for explosions. Not even shields are a problem with her around. And Liam can prime groups of enemies with his havoc strike and explode any primed targets I don't get from Vetra or the turret. If things are on low health I'll just shoot them with my pistol instead, I've never been a fan of shotguns.

I have had missions for EVERY other squadmate but not a single mission for Vetras.

Sid never says anything either.

>>172005031
Move Liam up and Cora down and you'll be good. I'm pretty sad though, I know Mass Effect 2's entire storyline was based around getting the most bad ass squad you could, but I wish they could've had equally bad ass characters for Andromeda. It's not even a decision when I pick my squad, it's just Vetra and Drack all the damn time. In ME2 I could never decide who to bring. Jack, Liara, Tali, Legion, Garrus, hell even Miranda were all so good. Not even counting DLC companions.

>year you only ate paste
From what I understand their Father wasn't present, so we have to blame this one on the Mother. What kind of mother lets their child live off anything like that for a year? He's clearly talking about art paste, not a cooking paste you make from various ingredients.

Who wrote this shit? Parents don't let their kids do shit like this for a day, let alone a year. They freak out and take their kid to the fucking doctor because first time parents are fucking paranoid and think every little thing is the end of the world when it comes to their first kid/kids. And it is Kids because they're twins.

So either the intentionally wrote the worst mother in the history of everything, or they honestly thought a mother let let their kid live of paste for a year was an intelligent addition to the character.

I don't know what to tell you, mate. If you genuinely can't see the difference between Scott and Sara in how they play out in cutscenes you aren't paying attention.

No one is trying to make the argument Scott is perfect, just that Sara is atrocious.

They don't look the same, and to imply such is disingenuous at best and blatantly misleading at worst.

You know what would be smart as a developer? "Y is this ability's cooldown" then "This reduces this ability's cooldown to X" There's no reason to just throw a percentage in our faces. Just give us the actual numbers. It's a useless layer that we don't need. It's just another step on the road to the answer. This is a game not a math test. Show actual numbers. Cooldown numbers. Damage numbers. Numbers that matter. Not covering everything with percentages.

Barring sibling-specific scenes, such as each Ryder talking about their background, they execute the same facial animations. Any perceived differences you're picking up are due to the models themselves being different. Go compare cutscenes if you want, they do the same shit.

Peebee Is great from a gameplay perspective.

She can detonate multiple primers at once with shock wave, giving her great synergy with any group primer ability, like a radius incinerate, or nova
She can prime with lift, which also just takes a character out of the fight all together

I think there are certain choices you need to make during loyalty missions or something. Like one romance guide said you needed to save the Kett facility to romance Jaal, I don't know. Which character are you trying to romance?

>>172008202
If you have multiple sources, tally them together. If a source effects multiples, list the multiples. At least then you know where you stand. You don't get the final or combined numbers as is, so it doesn't tell you anything.

Her, Vetra specced for Anti-shields, and a Ryder for anti armor and you have a team that will tear through everything.

Na, just get team leader up to max and take the bottom node. Tech armor is implied to only work on health and overload does more damage.

I'd agree only to the extent that she has the gameplay potential to do all of that. In practice, however, you can't direct her to actually do it. She has to decide to do it on her own, you know, basically leaving it up to the game's companion A.I.. Which is always fun.

Can't speak for the others.

The Human companions are terrible this time around. No Kasumi, no racist Ashley to love/hate. They're all basically Kaiden and Jacob levels of painfully dull, and I wish they'd all die, but this game axed any tension by making all companions have plot armor. I'd even prefer Miranda at this point, and I can't stand Miranda. And none of them hold a candle to Zaeed.

Hell, I'll even lower myself this far. I'd take Vega over these fuck heads. No, wait, I'd gladly take Vega over these fuckheads. I'd take Miranda and Vega, two of my least favorite Human characters, over any Human companion in this game, because they manage to somehow be even worse than Kaiden and Jacob. I killed Kaiden every single play through. I got Jacob killed in every single suicide mission. For a reason.

BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT ENJOYABLE COMPANIONS.

Oh, and while I'm at it, PC is one of the worst characters in Bioware history. I cannot stand this little shit. Why does this character exist? Who thought this was a good idea?

At least the Turian, Krogan and newbie alien are decent enough.

But three of the companions Liam, Cora and PB are completely unusable. I would trade all three out for Miranda and Vega of all the fucking companions, that's how little they're worth. I'd trade three fucking companions in this game for two of my LEAST favorite companions from ME2 and ME3.

There's really no romance option in this game, as far as I'm concerned. If Vetra weren't Turian I'd be fine with her, but, most characters in this game aren't interesting people, let alone interesting romance options. The romances in this game were written by people that thought a box full of old, worn out shoes had personality and attractive traits.

I'm not saying there are zero interesting characters. There are a few I like, but, amongst those, still none I'd want to romance. Most of the commentary on romances in this game has been people settling, rather than latching onto a character because, "This is the one: like you saw with Tali, Liara and other popular picks from the prior games.

That's basically the same thing, right? Don't blow it up so they could get as many prisoners as they could out.

I don't really know if it's required because that's the only guide I've seen mentioning it, so probably not. If you're still getting close friendship or flirt icons you're probably fine.

>>172010336
Unless you think that the gameplay alone can carry For Honor for you and you already see 3 or more characters you really want to play, don't buy it. I put roughly 100 hours into the closed alpha tests and was stupid enough to buy the game on release, because i thought half the content was locked away for release; surprise, it wasn't, so i dropped it 5 days later and haven't touched it since. The game is plagued with connectivity issues, some balance issues and, again, unless you just can't decide which character to play first because you love sooooo many, not worth the price. It's just bare-bones as fuck.

>>172010336
The game's fun, yeah. It can be enraging sometimes, but it's so satisfying to get kills you work for.

I researched the Bio Converter augment now how the hell do I get it?

I'm half.

I'm fairly happy with my Asian Ryder, but I still think it's hilarious that Bioware don't realize there are Asian people with light or pale skin out there. I grew up overseas, with kids, and eventually teenagers, in Japan. Light and the occasional pale skin tone was common enough alongside the other skin tones. And you can't even say they had plastic surgery, bleached their skin or were mixed. They were too young for the cosmetic stuff, when they were kids, and I knew some of their parents. They weren't mixed either.

Bioware, along with many other westerners, just don't realize Asian people run nearly the entirety of the skin tone range, from pale to brown and everything in between.

I do wish someone would mod in some better presets, though that'd be a miracle, and I wouldn't bet on it happening. Maybe hoping for some lighter or even pale skin tones being added to the game is a more likely hope. Skin tones gripes aside, the presets that are decent/easy to work with are very limited, and the customization tools to work with them every bit as limited as the presets themselves.

I'm unsure of the popularity of the Asian presets. I remember back in ME1 people griping you couldn't make an Asian Shepard, and that gripe lasted through ME2 and ME3. So I do know there was always an audience for it.

>>172010519
Yeah, I misread that entirely, sorry. Clearly I need to sleep more.

I've also been a little concerned because I've gotten nothing since his loyalty mission. I'm not sure if I need to do more story stuff or what, but the most that's happened so far is he sent me a fluffy email and there was some mutual face-touching and apparently I'm still at the "special friend" level.

>>172005031
Honestly not a bad list, desu senpai.

Really hoping we got some companions in the DLC.

>>172009848

It's true. They made it really hard to make decent looking white female Ryders, and people defaulting to, "I like Asian girls too" is a thing when there are no white women around. I don't think Bioware realized that, or they might have left out Asian presets as well, or beat them with the ugly hammer they beat the white presets with.

>>172010695
The tweet about pale skin that finally got a response from Bioware came from what appears to be an Asian girl.

ME1 had a very similar problem with Kaiden. Ashley at least got a reaction out of people, good or bad, even if they didn't want to romance her. Liara was the obvious stand out. Like her or hate her, she had a very real following.

It's the internet, of course, so, you never know. Anyways, taking it at face value, nice to know there are other Asians that wondering where the pale skin was. Curious what Bioware's actually follow through might be with this patch, given their response. Looking into it, as he put it, isn't a guarantee either.

I noticed this too. None of the red hairs are very convincing as normal red hair. They're a but flat, and washed out. They don't have the color at a base, or the layers of subtle color variation that give it body. Washed out red, and washed out orange, oddly bright, so when I say washed out I perhaps mean faded, or flat. I'm unsure how to explain what is wrong with them.

Then again, hair in this game, at a base, just isn't as well done as the skin and eyes (and that's considering the eyes have their own problems, if you don't make the eyes dark).

Yeah I love it but eventually I dropped it for Lance just because I don't use it often enough to justify it taking up a slot.

It can be fucking amazing though when something decides to target you. You can even block the boss enemy Kett's giant beam attack with it. Doesn't go back and hurt them but it makes you immune to it.

This is what I was thinking. If modding Frostbite was as easy as old Bioware games (it's not) I could have easily provided a several light and pale variations already. Sadly, it's not that easy to mod this game, let alone extract its textures to modify them in the first place.

Anytime people tell you Frostbite is severely modder unfriendly, believe them. Because it is. It's a severe pain in my ass, speaking as someone that modded DA:I. Any publisher or developer that pushes Frostbite as a positive hates modders.

>>172012190

Well, some of us, but yes, while I won't pretend it's a majority or anything, light skinned and even pale skinned Asians exist. There's a neat historical/genetics study about how the potential for light skin and red hair spread throughout Asia, especially east Asia. The red hair is a real rarity, but the light skin pops up a lot more often than people think.

>get to Gil final scene

Pretty funny. Does Sara get anything similar

>>172010929
Been using the Lance power, it's pretty great for taking out targets low on health or doing big amounts of damage with combos.

Singularity also pairs well with this

>>172012163
I really wish I could tell you why they use it. I've always assumed EA pushes it, but I've never actually looked into it so I'm 100% guessing there. Nothing concrete. As for ease of use? They don't provide tools to the public, but they certainly would have in house tools that make it easier, so, in house it wouldn't really be hard to work with at all. If the tools they're using are good.

I need your help deciding on a love interest for my Male Ryder, /meg/.

So far I've determined:

I like Cora for her Sex scene, and the overall quality of her cutscenes and relationship. It is clear she got the most development time put into her, it really shows.

I like PeeBee for her character development if you waifu her up and how well she compliments Scott's personality

I like Vetra for her personality, dialogue, and general attitude. She seems really adorable.

What should I do?

I'm genuinely torn.

Playing a FemRyder here. Are there any older, experienced, perhaps even grizzled, Human males to romance?

;_;

Watched some videos of Vetra's romance (waiting for a crack before I play the game). Is it as short as it seems? It looks like it goes straight from the climbing scene to the steak scene, from the videos on YouTube that I've been able to find. It's kind of weird to watch her and Scott go from just starting out to professing their love in the next scene.

You already okayed Cora's meatbrick though.

>>172012686
