Board 8 > Mass Effect 3 Topic v3 -- Spoil the game, and I'll genophage you.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Traynor is better than Chambers.

Chambers was just a whore. Traynor is friggin' adorable. Dammit, I knew I shouldn't have gotten back with Liara... then Thane... then back with Liara...

Traynor is awesome. Liked her better than Kelly the first time she spoke.

"Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?"
"I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!"

She also spread that scale itch onto the Normandy.

Good riddance, I say.

Traynor's a good girl. She's smart and modest and plays chess.

Chambers plays the vorcha meat flute and is probably indoctrinated.

Liara kinda sucks, to be honest. They tried to make her "badass" in ME2 and it didn't work, so now she's back to the nerdy Liara from ME1... and it doesn't work, either.

Kaiden is actually more enjoyable from my interactions with him. He's still kinda flat but I like his attitude towards Shepard.

Vegas is too bro to ever romance, even if he was an option (I don't think he is).

Could stick with Thane, but since he was dying in ME2 I assume that ME3 isn't going to be kind to him.

Damn, I almost want to restart so I can romance her. She seems like the best option for FemShep.

Until that EDI romance option.

I liked ME3 Liara more than any of her previous incarnations. She wasn't quite the wet towel she was in 1 but lost of that annoying EDGINESS she picked up in 2. And dat singularity. Can't live without it.

--
.

I do think she's actually at her best in ME3.

I just don't think she's that good.

If I had to rank so far that I've played:

DLC Character > Garrus > Vega > Non-DLC Hidden Character > Kaiden > Liara

This is the first game in the series where I've used powers way more than I used guns.

Hell, I barely use cover anymore.

As an Infiltrator I was constantly using my Black Widow to explode heads. I didn't even use powers that much.

From: the icon ownz all | #138
oh man. an infiltrator is essential in multiplayer. i just finished a gold match that we wouldn't have won if i couldn't camouflage in order to revive people.

Yeah my shotgun Quarian Infiltrator is the only class I've been able to beat Gold with.

These luck-based packs are so annoying. It'll give me everything but what I actually want, which is the Widow/Black Widow. I got the Viper and Revenant in one pack. UGH. This is the worst method to unlock things ever.

Insanity has been a joke so far with my Infiltrator, even the Grissom Academy Courtyard. The N7 Valiant Sniper is so awesome.

The Mantis is all I could use. But Tactical Cloak is too appealing not to have, and the Infiltrator is my class. So I probably will go with that.

Krogan Soldier.

Which was my main goal for unlocking.

I still haven't beaten ME3, but Gurren Lagann's ending is freakin' epic and touching.

Needless to say, still lovin' ME3, been rocking it a lot this weekend. I've got a full Paragon bar already, and about almost one full notch of renegade, and I feel like there's still a lot of game left (just got back to the Citadel after the Quarian stuff).

I have a wired connection, fIOS internet, and I'm located 1 mile from EA headquarters, yet I disconnect from 90% of my online matches. I have 75% readiness, but I need 100%, because my war assets are just over 5000 and I'm locked into the end game.

Ugh.

You shouldn't at all be concerned with your readiness. Just beat the game already.

icon, as long as the green bar is full, you're fine.

I have seen the "perfect ending" you get for going to about 5000 ready assets. It's not worth it.

The extra content is LITERALLY a second long.

Oh my f***ing god they need to fix a lot of crap in this multiplayer. Matchmaking is a joke, connections suck, the hosting player leaves after five rounds and that's it? CHANGE THE F***ING HOST THEN. Don't just make the rest of us quit and forfeit the exp and credits we've racked up so far.

God damn.

I've been trying for over an hour or two just to play ONE more damn Silver match all the way through to get the rest of the credits I need for another Cerberus pack.

The default choices that you're stuck with for ME3 are the absolute worst.

++++ Mass Effect 1 choices ++++

- Garrus was recruited
- Wrex was recruited
- The feros colony was not saved
- Shiala, the asari, was killed by the Thorian
- The Rachni Queen died
- Shepard killed Wrex on Virmire
- Shepard had no romance (oh noes!)
- The destiny ascension, along with the council, was destroyed.
- Udina was named counsellor
- All side missions and DLC content are considered as if you did not do them

++++ Mass Effect 2 choices ++++

- It is assumed Shepard did not do any loyalty missions
- Shepard did not help Mordin, as such no chance was made to save or destroy the genophage cure data.
- Tali was exiled by her people
- Shepard had no romance
- Zaeed and Kasumi were never recruited
- Mordin is alive
- Garrus is alive
- Miranda is alive
- Jacob is alive
- Grunt was never woken up from the tank and as such is never mentioned
- Jack died during the suicide mission
- Thane died during the suicide mission
- Tali was recruited and is alive
- Samara was never recruited, but she fought her way off of ilium and was then murdered by Morinth.
- Legion was never reactivated and never gained a name
- Shepard destroyed the collector base
- The only normandy crew members that survived the suicide mission were Joker and Chakwas. Yeoman chambers and all other mass effect 2 non-squad members died.
- Shepard did not complete optional N7 missions and assignments (such as citadel missions)
- Shepard did not complete Arrival, Overlord or the shadow broker DLC. But the events of Arrival and Overlord happened off screen, the batarian system still exploded, and Liara is still the shadow broker.

Tip for Insanity: Make sure to choose a good power or two that can damage enemies. I just went a whole battle in the control room on Mars without any ammo. Had to rely on Liara's Singularity (VERY useful) and Incinerate.

I think it's an issue with the game loading a scene and saving at the same time. All of my freezes have happened when the autosave kicks in while something large is loading.
