Mass Effect Trilogy

[GhostofAnakin]

 

Alan, I'm confused about this upcoming DLC.  The write-up also makes it unclear when it's set in terms of the story.  Please clarify for those of us who don't speak Priestley.

 

Sounds like it's content that expands the citadel that can be played anytime after the Citadel coup attempt and before the run-up to end game.

 

Thanks.

 

Though there's going to be more rage on the Bio boards once people realize it isn't set after the ending (ie. no post-ending Shepard reunion mission) like a lot seem to be hoping for.

How can they not realize it already? It's on the Citadel. The Citadel blows up in two of three endings. Hard to have DLC after the game there.

As the story goes.. <insert story>.

Everything can be rebuild of course and I seem to have a vague memory that it actually is in the extended cut.

Space magic?

So does the story finally make a lick of sense after 5,000 DLCs?

A bit, Leviathan was a huge plot dump/ 

[Azure79]

I watched a playthrough of Leviathan, and considering the major revelation at the end, I found it strange everyone is business as usual after. You get a few paltry military points and life goes on. I would have thought it would have been a game changer.

[TSBasilisk]

The fact that you know more about the Reapers' origin doesn't change much about the fact that there's still a massive fleet of them invading.

 

That's one of the things that made me snicker every time I read somebody with a high military score saying they should have been able to refuse the options and just win with their awesome military. With everything you scraped together, you're barely getting the advantage in the battle over ONE PLANET. Every other homeworld in the galaxy has just as many Reapers there, if not more, and there are even more wandering around the galaxy to pick off stragglers. The Reapers are a literally unstoppable armada; anybody who really thought the militaries of the Citadel races, which had purposefully crippled themselves, could stop the Reapers were smoking something.

 

Which is kinda why Bioware had a problem; they wrote themselves into a corner there where they didn't really have any legitimate excuse for how you could wipe out an entire armada of Reapers.

The Leviathan guys seemed to have tech that could disable a huge reaper in one blow. Trying to learn how that works and potentially harnessing it seems like a better use of resources than building the crucible which no one really knows anything about. 

 

It seemed like a game changer to me.

How are you guys like the latest MP DLC?

 

I saved enough to unlock all the new characters, but when I tried to play, I experienced massive lag. At this point, I can only play solo MP games. :/

[Bokishi]

Is the Citadel expansion going to be worth it maybe?

I've noticed over the last few days a lot of lag.  I assumed it was because they kept throwing me in lobbies with people across the globe from me.

 

I've also noticed a lot of connection issues lately.  Last night it took me like ten minutes just to find a game.  Between getting disconnected, to the annoying idiots who sit in lobbies for unknown reasons for a couple of minutes, it took forever.

You would think. Until you read the title of the game and the name of the developer and publisher. ZIIIING!

Nobody knows what it's going to be, so...

[GhostofAnakin]

Didn't an article say the last MP DLC was going to include Co-op missions, like the Spartan Ops ones from Halo 4?  Or am I hallucinating again?

 

ME3's MP needed more game modes.

Was this posted yet?

It would have been nice if every MP DLC had introduced a new mode instead of just more of the same stuff.

Well at least it has funny bits.

Okay. That was funny.

[NOK222]

This dlc had me smiling the whole way through and has given me warm feelings. You done good bioware, sort of. 

[Tale]

So does it have Legion and Mordin or not?

[alanschu]

Enough buzz around this one I decided to pick it up too (which made me figure I might as well pick up the others as well)

Can I call Exterminatus now?

[NOK222]

Mordin, yes, considering he's dead in most playthroughs at this point, unless you hate Krogan. But no mention of Legion, what the hell alanchu?

 

BTW, that party, when you say invite everyone, you really mean everyone.

Only until this (meh to spoiler tags, this time).

 

[Nepenthe]

I'm without proper internet access until friday, and without my surround system until I get new speaker wires and a stand for my center... considering saving this until I'm all sorted, but probably gonna cave in and do it over the weekend...
