Do you have to reach a certain point first? very early in the game you can start it, if you had it activated i'm pretty sure you can do it as soon as the galaxy map opens up. I think it's what go to eden prime?

Are you guys aware of any technical tweaks that can be done? Idk, boost graphics a bit, change fov, etc.

Hahahahah BioWare got Tali's face from a search engine

The game is quite good. I dislike the fact they abandoned planet-exploring completely (I mean, at least in ME2 you can scan and find anomalies - in ME3 everywhere you need to go is told to you, and there isn't very many places to land). The combat's better now that we can customize our equipment but without the mess it was in ME1, but at the same time the cover system got fucked up along the way so you'll be rolling forwards while actually you meant to just jump to cover. And the ending... leaves something to be desired to say the very, very least. Overall good game though. Just might be best to come up with your own ending.

Goddamn I hate turrets. Incredibly annoying as a vanguard.. especially when my squadmates bug out and vanish so everyone's focus firing me.

Theres still that easier way of scanning(Which i find better than ME2 stuff) but they should add small missions to some of thoes things.
Also fuel is stupid, theres no fuel depots in each cluster makes it very anoying to fly around. I also really fucking hate the scanner on the pc version, can it move any slower than it does currently?

Getting down quick before and eng repairs that shit. speaking of which if you shoot out the windows in an altas you can board em btw(which i've only done with sniper rifles), not a spoiler that's a game hit during loading screen.

I hated scanning it was tedious, this way is similar exploring plus you evade reapers as a risk reward to scanning. Also you're still playing like it's me2 that's your fault for not paying attention to the new controls.
Holding a or d | left or right jumps to new cover, holding w | forward makes you jump out of cover, double tapping space | storm/sprint makes you jump cover, hitting middle mouse button(to me i remapped it to side mouse button) makes you turn corners in cover.
You're just not learning new controls i play just fine after i accepted how the cover system works. Same with the pause, holding shift for powers etc. In ME2 you could target while holding that pause, in me3 you must target them first then hit shift to have the power target them, else if you play it like me2 you'll never hit what you want. or anything.

The bolded part lol i get that, i have to set my in game mouse sensitivity very slow else the shit jumps around too much, so what happens scanning planets i have to move my mouse a shit ton for it to move fast, i just bump up the dpi on my mouse even more to max now when scanning planets.

Info regardless Tali (spoiler) + Show Spoiler +Okay so I just saw Tali's face through a image you can see here : http://i.imgur.com/3LHtV.jpgSo basically Tali is a stock model... I'm just so sad about what Bioware did to her :< so lazy

Problem is with fuel, there is not a fuel depot in each cluster, making it very anoying to refuel(Since you have to fly around to useless systems to get it). They could have just added a fuel depot in each system and it would have been fine

You need spells against Shields and Armor, thats the only thing you need on the hardest difficulty.

Yeah it's not every cluster but i just remember one that has it on the way left of the map, if they added fuel to every system it would be pointless to find fuel also make it even more trivial.

Edit:Nevermind, apparently (according to bioware site) it's like this: How to Purchase and Install Mass Effect 3 PC Downloadable Content
- Launch the Mass Effect 3 game on your PC.
- If you don’t have Origin or Mass Effect 3 on this PC, you can download and install Origin. Log in to Origin with the account that you used to purchase Mass Effect 3, and install Mass Effect 3.
- From the Main Menu, choose “Downloadable Content” and follow the prompts to purchase the DLC in the Origin In Game overlay.
|
Yeah, except there's no "Downloadable Content" in the Main Menu.
EDIT: Sigh, finally found it. You have to click the little "i" button in Origin.

The new weight capacity system, with its bonus to power recharge for carrying under capacity, makes playing through Insanity as Infiltrator pretty easy. Still harder than ME2 ever was, but spammable cloak trivializes most fight sequences.

I felt the same way so I equipped all weapons to make it a bit tougher but I'm playing on hardcore not insanity.

Playing on PC right now... I managed to find the config.exe to tweak the visual settings to the max, but I haven't find anywhere to play with the textures. Am I the only one that finds that they look like crap ?
Unrelated : I find it really sad to see that a lot of people are buying the DLC. I don't care how important plot-wise it can be, by buying it you are sending EA the message that you are willing to pay more for a game. It encourages them for example to charge you more for day-1 DLC in their next game or to put more plot content in it. In the end all gamers are losing when some gamers buy DLC.
