The Official Mass Effect thread

[Flash Facts]

Yeah but like I said it isn't unique to the mission. I already had like 3 of them you I reloaded and got something else.

 

[Nightmare]

Is there any achievments you can unlock on the new DLC??

 

[Flash Facts]

Yeah, it has one achievement that is worth 50 points.

 

[Avangarde]

Ugh I had no idea when you create a new character it over writes the previous save file, "goodbye 90 min save file " What a f***er.

 

[El Bastardo]

I haven't played Mass Effect in a few months, but I'm pretty sure each character gets its own "folder." On the load screen, you can go out to view all the different careers. So a save file shouldn't have gotten overwritten, you just have to access the other character's career.

No, that's not right. You should still have that character saved. I can't remember how ya flick through characters but ya can and all your saves with that character should still be there.

 

[kainedamo]

Whats so kick ass about the reward? It's not anything unique to the mission.

I thought the mission is okay. It wasn't mindblowing but like you said it was a pretty good intro to the Batarians. I wish there was more to it though it was mostly Mako driving. Hopefully the next pack is better.

Mostly Mako driving? Ugh.

Okay, is the new DLC content pretty much just another boring explorable planet, or is it more unique like one of the main story planets?

 

[Master Chief]

It's a side mission on an asteroid yo, not a colonized planet!

Yeah but like I said it isn't unique to the mission. I already had like 3 of them you I reloaded and got something else.

Yea but you don't have to pay for this one.

 

[kainedamo]

It doesn't sound very good.

 

[El Bastardo]

I like the Mako.

 

[kainedamo]

Do you like riding it around on the boring rocky planets?

 

[El Bastardo]

Yes, it's kind of fun.

The only planets I really don't like, and there are only two, are the ones with enormous and continuous peaky mountains. Those are annoying.

Mass Effect is one of my favourite games ever...Along with Metal Gear Snake Eater, Shenmue, GTA: SA, Half-Life 2 (and expansions), Oblivion Elders Scroll.....AND THE ONLY THING STOPPING MASS EFFECT FROM BEING THE BEST GAME EVER, IS THAT DAMN MAKO!!!!! All it needed was a few more hours programming just to change the handling.....

Im still gonna get the D/L content...I'll getting it tomorrow....And Im hoping it will push my character to LEVEL 60!!! I'm at 59!!!!!!

 

[Dark Hulkness]

any news about ME2 yet?

 

[Hudson]

I wish they would've made more diversity in the interiors of those bunkers, the last one was ace though
Also if only all side missions had so much forethought as this.

did you guys let the batarian ****er live?

 

[K4tzm4n]

I have yet to get the DLC...Worth the 400 points? Overall, great game...Dialogue is a bit cheesy at time, but that's to be expected (especially if you go after the "romance"). When the weapons are fully upgraded, you can literally run around like it's a third person shooter. Quite fun.

Naw, I killed him coz I thought there'd be time to save the people. But nay. So I was happy to torture his ass for a little bit before finally putting a bullet in his head, lol.

WeRd. For 400 points it's definitely worth it.

 

[K4tzm4n]

They say it's 40 minutes of gameplay...So is there literally a timer?

nah a bit more than 40.

only point of contention was that your teammates were quiet They shoulda chimed in, like they always do.

 

[L.A.]

Yes just got the game via Gamefly!!!

 

[El Bastardo]

Well, I'm about ten hours into my new game, going Hardcore. Did Therum first (so I could get Liara right away, since I'm going for her achievement), now working through Noveria. I'll probably head for the DLC site after doing the Luna mission.

 

[AshtonFoster]

Just reached level 60 on my character.

I got the DLC Content - Really enjoyed it. Great thing is, I got it for free. I had like 900 points come from nowhere in my account! I only had 100 points a few weeks ago...and I certainly havent put any on!

ANYWAYS, the DLC was cool. I thought the asteroid was pretty cool too. I killed the Batarian at the end. I was hoping that I could save everyone after...Obviously I was wrong!! I saved the game just before, so next I'll choose to save the hostages, and see how it plays out again.

 

[L.A.]

Wish they did a better job explaining how to use your weapons! I still dont know how to reload!

 

[El Bastardo]

Uh.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Lol. :d
