RIPPA Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 On Silver difficulty? Wow. I thought you only did the Box of Shame on Gold or Platinum? I've only seen it on Platinum but yeah this was a Silver He was giving folks from the UK a bad name as he yelled at us all for like 3 waves and then realized none of us were going to join him so he came out and started killing things.

Gonzo Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 So I finished my first play-through on ME1 again, got ready to fire up ME2 and import my character over. . .and I need a patch. I can't get said patch, because I can't get on the internet at my house yet because the people that occupied the house before us were inconsiderate assholes. More specifically, they didn't cancel their contract with Deutsch Telekom early enough and so there's still internet access in their name going to the house (that they refused to give us the username and password for) that we can't use. This will persist until the end of the month. Guess that means I can play through 1 again, try to max out my character, and do things differently. . .most importantly making sure Wrex doesn't get himself shot on Virmire.

J.T. Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Fuck, Rippa. You just started playing ME3 Multiplayer steadily for about two weeks now and you are already over 2K medal points ahead of me? The hate.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red is Dead Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Level 35 going into Virmire with Liara and Garrus Thats alright, isnt it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Level 35 going into Virmire with Liara and Garrus Thats alright, isnt it? You should be fine. You have done Therum, Feros and Noveria already right (instead of doing two and then going to Virmire)? Also - depending on how you wanted to handle a choice... you need to make sure either your Charm or Intimidate is at 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 It will go a lot easier if someone has a high Electronics skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red is Dead Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Have done Therum as I've got Liara. Been grinding through the assignments to see if I can pick up nice weapons/armour/benefits I've been auto-levelling my squad, but not me. So with Liara or Garrus I haven't got someone who's shit hot at electronics...yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Well you should have had Tali (or have Electronics yourself) - of course if you have been auto-leveling, you still might be boned Now the reason JT talks about electronics is that since Virmire is Geth... AI Hacking is almost a must, just to make battles easier. Obviously you can do it without it it just makes things tougher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Bioware released it's new Social Network Basically they redid all their forums - along with housing the N7 HQ (and the upcoming Dragon's Keep which will be for DA3) http://social.bioware.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 You'd be much happier if at no point in the Mass Effect trilogy do you have Tali in your party, Red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red is Dead Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I had her for one mission, but she was so godawful she was relegated to the b squad along with kaiden. I've made my choice. I'm a full bore ahead overkill assault rifle, heavy armour Commando. I've got a hell of a good biotic pistol whipping mofugga, and a badass turian sniper. Assignmenys don't get a lot of xp though. Down to my last two apart from the surveys/finding things quests. Going to try and hit up Virmire, next session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurningBeard Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I'm due a replay of these from scratch but, daft as it sounds, I'm hoping I break my leg or something so I get a lot of time off work to blast through in one go haha. Also, I need to buy them for PS3 but the cost is astronomical for the trilogy set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, I used them mini bugs to get my eye in on the controls...tweak the sensitivity and look. I dont hate the quarian - just found her bloody useless. If Garrus sticks around in the sequels he'll be my go to squaddie...Liara too for her advantages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Garrus is a squadmate for all three. (Well with the usual caveats) Liara is not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man Known as Dan Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Really, the thing with Mass Effect's side characters is you can turn almost any of them into a killing machine that is pretty damn overpowered if built right. Tali is probably the best character in the game with a strong build toward tech powers and little to no points toward guns. Honestly, points into guns in that game become useless once you get the Spectre Weaponry. Wrex, Garrus, and Liara are all viable options as well, Wrex can be turned into a god damned tank of epic proportions with a build on Fitness, Barrier, and his passive ability, in combination with weakening DPS attack of Warp. Garrus is a good mix of Tali's strengths (though no AI Hacking, which really sucks) and a good Sniper, which is useful since Sniping in this game is ass when you are doing it, and Singularity is very powerful for Liara. But yeah, complaining about your side characters not being good, when you aren't the one leveling them up and letting the AI do it is kinda backwards, isn't it? No offense.

Red is Dead Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Nah, I'm happy with my choice of characters. I just found tali to not be as good or as fun as liara. personal preference is all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
