There are also bad animations, low resolution textures and gay looking characters(the new guy omg). Everything else seems good. The whole texture ordeal is rumoured to be to compress the demo below the X-box live demo limit requirment. And gay looking characters are subjective, who knows, maybe he's a male shep love interest? ^_^ | ||

Then i tried the quarian engenier... but dunno, its been hard as i cant seem to hotkey my powers properly :S on ME2 and ME1 you used to be able to hotkey them by just selecting and drag the power/ability to the wanted hotkey.. this is not working for me. is this different now somehow? anyone? Maybe my PC demo version is bugged.. using the shift+ selecting power takes too long and it makes using some powers almost impossible. Anyway, its been a blast, but as a coop multiplayer game beign able to coordinate with your team members is a must, its extremely necesary when doing silver-gold level games, as you need to stick together and know what ye be doing. Having some sort of PvP seems rather imposible as i wouldnt imagine how they could possible balance so many different characters and strategies with out breaking the game, removing classes or races, or taking ages. | ||

Yup, should be done the same way as in ME1 and 2, just hold shift and drag the ability to the proper hotkey. Does indeed sound like you're bugged. | ||

No, they're locked in multiplayer. Open the single player demo, or Mass Effect 2, and try reassigning your hotkeys during combat. It will, more likely than not, crash your game. Locking hotkeys in the multiplayer demo was a quick and dirty fix for that problem. | ||

Can never tell with such light weight demos like this | ||

I understand why people are upset, but who wrote the law that said "Everything that's created upto release date is suppose to be included?" Games usually come at fairly equal price. A series like Modern warfare is way way way easier to reproduce and send out than creating a New IP, engine, art and story from scratch, yet both these game would've probalby been sold for about the same ammount, even if the manhours put into the new IP is three times as many. Granted, ME is no new IP. I'm just trying to illustrate a point that making a game is not a straight forward formula that always takes 3 years, 2 month and 9 days. And everything created within that timeline is to be included. Game are never priced for their gametime/content value at all. I bought skyrim for about 10-15 Euros cheaper than MW 2.5 and I've gotten about 3 times as much playtime and content out of it, so I don't see how that's not a huge issue but apperntly some DLC is. That said, I'm not a fan of all these other things, Buy shirt here get this guy, buy a figure here get that gun, buy at store x get gun Y. It's just obvious milking and dosen't sit well with me. You can also argue that this DLC is tied in with the overall story in ME, wich is why it shouldn't be DLC. Wich is fair, but that's another discussion of it's own. Well as gamers we respect Valve, Blizzard, and others for polishing and completing their game before releasing it even if it means pushing out a date. What games like ME3 do is say they don't need to make their game content complete before shipping it. Still I think the narrative implications is the more important point. Any DLC to a story driven game that is fitted into the core game time frame just shows a lack of respect for your game and its merits. It means you are willing to have a lot of filler content rather than a unified story/point to your game. | ||

If i actually spend my money on this, i feel like im support what bioware is doing and justifying it. Cutting created content out of the game to grab a few bucks off of the paying gamer doesn't swing well with me. Really miss the days where you receive the complete game after you simply purchase the game at the checkout counter and nothing more. Same for me. This is not the biggest factor obviously, but after loving ME1 and being disappointed in ME2 I was hesitant. Then I thought of the time when I changed my PC and it was a nightmare just to get to load my save file, or that time when a DLC code didn't work in a new game and they refused to give another one. From now on unless it's a game I feel very strongly about I will not buy a thing from a company that does that. | ||

 Games I own on Steam published by EA: Dead Space 1/2 and Mass Effect 1. Bought DS1 and ME1 out of respect to developers and love to both games, DS2 wasn't worth the amount I payed for it. Yet I guess I would have still bought it, eventually. I learned about ME universe from second game, then I played ME1, then replayed ME2 (a few times now, both of them). Yet I definitely love ME1 and don't care much for ME2. So I'm gonna pirate ME3 if it's possible, but honestly, I don't have high hopes for the game since atmosphere in demo didn't captivate me. Visual effect of dimmed screen borders, dialogues seem even more cheesy than before and I don't really like this graphical engine. Glad they added more texture and object details and went for some Modern Warfare'ish cinematic feel, but they shouldn't over-do it. Gritty atmosphere of ME1 was the way to go, with true planet exploration. Multiplayer is fun, but I'm pretty sure that after you level up most chars to the point where you know them well, new zones are gonna make only a cosmetic difference. Besides that, weapon arsenal seems way too small right now, hopefully full game is gonna have much more in it. Still boggled about Mattock (favorite weapon in ME2) having downward force of recoil in multiplayer. P.S. Regarding Bioware. I still love and fantasize about Neverwinter Nights... (unfortunately I never got to play previous titles like Baldurs' Gate, now it's too outdated for me, tried it, didn't work out). NWN 2 was decent but not good enough. Story and atmosphere in Mask of The Betrayer is the epitome of immersion for me. Storms of Zephyr was complete crap. Basically, what I'm saying is I have no hopes for Bioware doing anything right anymore. Dragon Age 2 is... don't want to even talk about it But saying all that, ME has it's own universe and it's decent, they might finish (if it's gonna be the case at all) properly.P.P.S. Sorry for a long post, had to leave all my hurt somewhere. | ||

So another slow-ass jogging sticky cover shooter where you choose between which cutscene you want to see. Why not, that's what passes for an RPG these days after all. But why does it have multiplayer? Is there any point? Why wouldn't I just play something like TF2 instead? Because the multiplayer in ME3 is way more fun than TF2. Don't really see what the whole deal is with people whining about mass effect being a shitty RPG. It's an action adventure game, it's a shooter with RPG elements rather than an RPG, they never intended it to be baldurs gate in space. | ||

If it was competetive and so messed with balance of single player, or poorly implemented, or taking away from the single player I would completely agree but that really doesn't seem to be the case at all. I admit I really wasn't looking forward to the multiplayer until I saw how it was implemented but why do people who know the details now still oppose it? A lot of RPG-elitists out there  | ||

It must be hard being an RPG elitist seeing as there haven't been any "real" RPG's released in years... | ||

As mentioned before I see ME as an ACTION game with RPG elements. But when I see people seriously calling it an RPG and I disgree it hardly makes me an elitist, at least not in my own eyes | ||
