    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    Iirc, it's been said that there aren't any sequels guaranteed, but there could be, and if not, there could also be other Mass Effect games set in the Andromeda galaxy. Personally I think there will be a sequel as despite a few hiccups ME:A was pretty successful, but even if we don't get the chance to play as Ryder for another game or too, anything set in the ME universe will make me happy. (Though I REALLY like Ryder's story so far and damn does it need another adventure.)

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    Honestly if you hop into a silver match at level 1, most people will either vote to kick or back out. That said - it seems to me that if your apex rating is over 2000 people will trust in your ability to not drag the team down. Just got my Asari adept to lvl 19, and I've been working on my Salarian Architect.

    I see. Seems like a stupid thing to get triggered over but w/e. I was literally just like "Oh, she's trans, neat." And moved on to the next mission. (Not that I'd know anything about how people feel about "coming out".)

    So why were people pissed about Hainly Abrams? I haven't looked into what the big deal was (like at all) so I have basically no info on the subject. People are pissed cus they put a transgender person into the game or... some other reason? Not totally sure what the situation is.

    So here's my question, I'm curious to know your answers since it seems like there would be a lot of different opinions about this part of the game. [spoiler]

    I got myself into the habit of saving periodically long ago. It's saved my ass many a time. (Though not during Andromeda, I've had no save problems yet)

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    Since I've gotten my Asari sentinel to lvl 20 (and have yet to reset because I grind gold matches on her) I've been primarily using the Asari Adept. Holy-fucking-shit once you get annihilation leveled up and throw/lance cooldowns are lowered you don't even need a gun. I hadn't used annihilation during SP so this has been my first experience with it, but goddamn. On a side note, has anyone played the Krogan Gladiator yet? The only UR classes I have are the Kineticist and the Salarian Operator.

    Honestly the animations really aren't that bad. They're easy to ignore (save a few pretty cooky ones but those make me laugh rather than take away from the game). Do I wish they were perfect? Yeap. But my bar is set pretty low after 2016. The only major glitch I ran into (on pc) was during the Architect fight on Eos. After I activated the hammer thing I'd lose the ability to move/do anything and the spawning cutscene for the Architect wouldn't play.

    I haven't seen anything like that in singleplayer, but in mp it sometimes takes 2 to 3 games for my credits to be awarded. Probably not related, but somewhat similar. Edit: also yeah the APEX app is really useful.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    Yes, ARs are weak as shit. It disappoints me immensely. 2 wins at gold to get a premium pack. Bioware put a lot of effort into multiplayer, coming from someone who's talked to one of the producers who's main job was work on multiplayer. Granted the UI is shit, and the balancing could probably use some work, but not as shit as you seem to think. It's actually REALLY easy to see who's being loud and obnoxious because believe it or not, the UI DOES tell you. The mic symbol changes to a...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    I honestly don't know what some of the weapons are in the game for. Some guns do so much damage while others do so little it seems almost pointless for the lower damage ones to be in the game. For example: I didn't use a single assault rifle my entire playthrough. They all either did small amounts of damage or were burst fire which wasn't what I wanted from an assault rifle, or they were both. Same with SMG's. Meanwhile there are snipers like the Isharay that do 1000+ damage, and with the...

    I don't think difficulty has anything to do with it, just the choices you make throughout your playthrough of the story. I figured something like this would happen and tried to tailor major choices around the thought that the more people I saved/helped/kept alive or whatever the more allies I would have to kick Archon's ass. Erandil, I'll respond to your post when I'm not at work and have more time for a thought out response.

    Just beat the game. Holy fucking shit that final mission was amazing. Bioware has quite obviously left some things open - either for DLC or for another game, and I can hardly wait. I got a perfect ending where nobody died - at all. Woot! Now I just need to go through and finish all the sidequests and tasks, need to get that 100%.

    The Dhan is really nice, I have one modded to hell and it one shots grunts and works great with my Singularity, Charge, Nova build. Also N7 armor for those biotic buffs.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    Peebee is honestly one of the most useful, besides Drack. Holy fuck does Drack get shit done. Peebee is all about CC, which is pretty useful since I have... Invasion? maxed out on her as well as pull, so she debuffs as well as throws enemies up in the air where it's easy for a combo detonation. One big peeve of mine though is how most of your squadmates seem geared towards close combat/melee. -Drak has his shotgun, bloodrage, etc. His skill trees are angled towards close range tank....

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    You just gotta build for multiple favorites, and not use cover. Seriously, don't use cover. You can basically avoid all the Architect attacks by strafing, and use the ammo boxes strategically. You honestly don't even need tech or biotics to kill it. Also, 57 hours played, probably 51 of those are in SP. 36% completion last I checked and I'm going for 100%. I'm loving every second of it, but this is gonna be a long haul. For those of you currently playing through the game, who're you...

    I mean, there really is a reason though. "Dad" chooses to save your life, and since he knows he's going to die he transfers all the SAM stuff he has control of over to you. If it had been Cora right next to him he probably would have passed the title on to her. Of course, that wouldn't really work from a narrative perspective sooooooooooooooooooo..

    Yeah Kai Leng really triggered me. Johnnyseattle With the inclusion of the jump pack, as well as the changes to certain biotic abilities/the inclusion of new ones, the game looks like it will play a lot different than the trilogy. It's not like BW doesn't know about the mistakes they made with the trilogy, and if they want to continue the franchise, Andromeda has to be as close to perfect as possible.

    From the little we've seen of an... intimate scene the animations don't seem like they'll be terrible. That said you could be totally right, but mass effect 3 came out in 2012 so hopefully the animations have gotten drastically better. I'm really optimistic because there hasn't been a game in a while that I've truly enjoyed.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    Anyone else really hyped for this game? It's easily one of my most anticipated this year. I enjoy the way it's being marketed what with the various Mission Briefings and brief glimpses of gameplay. I know there's a lot of people who hate on this game because of how the original ME Trilogy ended, but I tend to care more about the journey instead of the destination so I thoroughly enjoyed the trilogy (Except ME1, that hasn't aged well at all) and it certainly isn't going to keep me away...
