You won't be able to play the full multiplayer without it.

Tommy Gunn 02-19-2012 04:31 PM

That's kind of what I mean, I always do the side-quests, so I don't need to bother with the multiplayer to get the best ending.

Swiss Ultimate 02-19-2012 06:44 PM

Oooohhh....well, I have been really enjoying it. Give it a shot.

alvarado52 02-19-2012 07:24 PM

You guys wanna run a squad tonight? I'll be home around 10

Swiss Ultimate 02-19-2012 07:29 PM

I know how to invite people, yet I am pretty confused about how to join games. Been playing with a Brit and an American pretty frequently. Can't find anyone good enough to finish a Silver game so far.

LEVEL 20 ENGINEER! :D

Wehttam 02-20-2012 01:11 AM

i have just primarily rocking a krogan soldier. pretty badass. never played a mass effect game before, but this has been pretty fun. becoming pretty decent. may try some silver tomorrow, but hate playing with randoms.

Swiss Ultimate 02-20-2012 11:00 AM

More often than not I join a silver room only to find that everyone is level 1. A good portion of the times it's half and half...with me and one other dude being level 18+ or something and then two people who have never played before.

If I'm the leader I change it to bronze and just play it.

I'm just glad they didn't make it so that some of these other portions of the game had to be played in order to get 'X' result in single player.

im now confident that i can do silver. bronze is getting way too easy with 4 guys

Swiss Ultimate 02-20-2012 07:29 PM

Feel the same way. Fuck, bronze is getting easy with three guys.

Gold is still ridiculous however.

Wehttam 02-20-2012 11:22 PM

dont think i will ever be able to do that before the actual game comes out

Swiss Ultimate 02-21-2012 07:44 AM

Unless our characters level max is going to be like 40, I don't see it either.

Emperor Smeat 02-21-2012 05:58 PM

The first DLC packs for the game was accidentally leaked by the Xbox Marketplace and will be called "From Ashes".

The DLC pack also confirms earlier rumors about the Mass Effect 3 story changing part of what was previously known in the other 2 games.

Mass Effect 3: From Ashes, released February 20 presumably by accident, will apparently allow players to "unearth lost secrets from the past" and enlist a member of the game's Prothean race (confirming previous rumors).

For those of you who have purchased the N7 Collector's Edition (including the PC Digital Deluxe Edition), you will get this content at no extra charge. We'll have a lot more details for you later this week! Stay Tuned!

yay 4 me

Swiss Ultimate 02-22-2012 07:20 AM

I only preordered the standard edition since I didn't care for most of the other shit. Will download the From Ashes DLC though.

Emperor Smeat 02-22-2012 05:50 PM

The digital version on PSN will be having an exclusive pre-order not available for the PS3 version.

Quote:

Sony and Electronic Arts are taking a step forward with Mass Effect 3, as the PlayStation Blog notes the game will be available day and date on PSN alongside the retail version on March 6, and you can digitally pre-order on PSN now.

Anyone who pre-orders through PSN will gain access to the M55 Argus rifle. What’s that?

“The Argus is a high-powered rifle and an excellent close-range weapon. Its bursts of fire ensure ammunition conservation during lengthy conflicts. Law-enforcement agencies across the Mass Effect galaxy are adopting the Argus as their standard rifle, as much for its intimidation factor as its suppression power.”

PSN consumers also gain access to a system theme that won’t be available anywhere else.

Bioware also confirms the first DLC pack called "From Ashes" will be free to anyone who ordered the N7 Collector's Edition of the game while everyone else has to pay regardless if the game was bought used or new. The DLC was never originally intended to be part of the collector's edition until very recently which is why its only a download code and not on the disc itself.

Swiss Ultimate 02-23-2012 05:26 PM

I got the points...want the fucking Prothean on my team.

alvarado52 02-24-2012 02:15 AM

WELL DTTS, THANKS FOR SPOILING THAT!

You purposely avoid anything regarding the games plot or DLC, and this dude here fucks it all up.

just kidding, i read it already and spoiled it for myself.

Swiss Ultimate 02-24-2012 06:52 PM

Is it really a spoiler? I mean, people already know about available characters and whatnot, and considering all the news on this ya know?

Anyways, glad you're kidding.

LoDownM 02-24-2012 07:00 PM

How does talking about a DLC character, that would've been announced when the dlc was announced, spoil anything anyway?

Swiss Ultimate 02-24-2012 07:57 PM

Well, he was kidding, so...

LoDownM 02-24-2012 09:40 PM

Other people on the internet weren't.

Emperor Smeat 02-24-2012 10:08 PM

The biggest issue was either Bioware, EA, or Microsoft themselves ended up accidentally spoiling a piece of Mass Effect 3 when it went up too early on the Xbox Marketplace. It wouldn't be that big of an issue if it wasn't for the fact of it changing what was known about the story in the previous 2 games.

I know on Kotaku, people were screaming for the heads of the editor in charge of the report just because the DLC picture he uploaded for the article ended up having the tag line that was in the DLC pack on the marketplace.

alvarado52 02-25-2012 01:27 AM

Well my opinion on is that it shouldn't be dlc...and if it is, it should be free to all via a cerberus network type thing. It's simply too big of a wave in the ME lore to make it simply something that is "premium"

Swiss Ultimate 02-25-2012 02:32 PM

I guess we could wait for reviews before downloading it.

Fryza 02-25-2012 03:36 PM

First thing I'm doing when I am able to do it in the game. And he's being a main member. Brothean.

Swiss Ultimate 02-25-2012 03:50 PM

Going to wait a bit before grabbing him.

Fryza 02-25-2012 04:00 PM

I feel I am obliged to use the last game's mook race since they took out Legion, the first game's mook race.

And since I didn't get to use Legion until late in the game, I don't want the same event to happen.

alvarado52 02-25-2012 04:53 PM

Im gonna snatch up all my team members right away. I felt the same way as Fryza with Legion...you get him so late in the game, and he's so damn cool, gut you dont get to use him too much.

Im currently powering through another play of ME2, and snatched him up asap, which had been entertaining, especially when taking him on missions like Tali's loyalty one and citadel ones.

Swiss Ultimate 02-25-2012 06:57 PM

Legion better damn well play a good role in this game.

Fryza 02-26-2012 04:29 AM

Bet you encounter him like Ashley/Kaidan in two. Which will make me sad.

Emperor Smeat 03-01-2012 05:12 PM

In case anyone doesn't care about being spoiled and wants to know how the ending and parts of the game actually play out.

http://www.giantbomb.com/mass-effect...t-3/35-537798/

SPOILER: show
The ending is done Deus Ex Human Revolution style with a series of choices available but not everything will be available since its based on space points earned and decisions done in the game.

Also ends up setting the stage for Mass Effect 4 but not in a Halo 2 way.


Didn't actually spoil the ending with the tags but gives an idea of how it occurs if you've played a certain other game.

Fryza 03-02-2012 03:55 AM

Really hoping that's not the case.

Also, been playing the demo a bit more tonight. Hate these fucking Cerberus troopers and their fucking grenades.

Destor 03-03-2012 05:23 PM

does this drop tuesday?

Fryza 03-03-2012 07:04 PM

Yes.

Destor 03-04-2012 01:40 AM

with amalur i prolly wont get around to playing THE COPY IVE ALREADY BOUGHT until late spring. but still good news.

#BROKEN Hasney 03-04-2012 07:24 AM

SPOILER: show
Fuck the opening due to the cheapest heat ever of killing a kid. Pretty lame move.

Thank fuck I'm off Earth and ready to play the main game now.


SPOILER: show
Now slow motion unskippable dream sequences why I slowly run after the kid? Get the fuck out

LoDownM 03-04-2012 02:46 PM

Some of the things that happen in this game. Just gonna leave it at that for now.

Swiss Ultimate 03-05-2012 08:23 AM

Say it ain't so...getting the game like tomorrow or the day after.

LoDownM 03-05-2012 12:31 PM

Don't worry, DttS. The game is good. It's just, well we can talk about that later. Don't wanna spoil anything in anyway for anyone.
