As soon as I  read the talent points issue I knew this was gonna be a hot topic.  Purists were gonna say "GOOD!"  Power Trippers (Like me) "SUCKS!"  It's the forcing thing I dont like.  "You must do this or we say you can't participate in the game you legally purchased for a half days wage.  Thank you for the money and allowing us to impose our authority upon you".  I dunno maybe I'm overreacting.  But................  c'mon the game is about options.

Then ask for a patch that allows you to respec squadmates. Don't ask them to keep a glitch in place.

There's one serious problem with BW's explanation for why they removed the 360 glitch: They already know the max xp, they already know the max skill points, they already know the max credits, they already know the max amount of minerals available in the game. None of it is random.

So, they tell you upfront, like has been said a thousand times around here, if you use the hack you probably won't be able to use the character for import into me3. We know you couldn't have had 60 or 70 points, we know you must have at least one point in the loyalty power, we know...

So, in me3, they either deny imports that are out of known ranges-- seriously, any programmer that can't write a simple check script for this needs to go back to kindergarten and relearn BASIC on a TRS80--or they simply let you import while resetting all the points to zero or to the max they could/should have been.

If they don't want to ****** off someone that may have "accidentally" used the hack, then they just set the max points and let you redistribute them at the beginning of ME3. Or they set everyone back at zero, just like they did with me1 > me2... it's what we're already used to so there shouldn't be any issue with that... or they enforce it, say "we understand your issue, but you'll need to go back to me2 and create a valid importable character playthrough".

Sorry, but this excuse is lame and quite frankly assumes that their customers are idiots.

I for one have no problem with the glitch being removed. But only because i'm on the PC. But that's in the context that from me1 to me2 they've already removed so much that I'm really numb to it.

However, that they think I'd fall for this terrible excuse--we just can't find a way around it...--is laughable at best.

There are 3 things that still bother me that aren't addressed by BW: 1. Why is there no retraining powers for squad mates? 2. Are X+A files w/ extra skill pts doomed to corruption for ME3 transfer despite this update (my soldier Shepard has 11 extra even after the update:unsure:)? 3. Will a raised lvl cap ever be included in an update, DLC, or an expansion to quell the problem of extra lingering pts that can't be used b/c of too little pts to spend or for people who want all powers maxed? (Please raise lvl cap!!!:blush:

Um...I think, I dont use a cable of any kind...transfer, or with usb ports on both ends.



I use just a thumb drive of 4gb that I bought in walmart :P.



1st. I plugged the USB drive into my xbox.

2nd moved ALL ME saves from xbox to USB drive

3rd Plugged USB drive into PC, and made a copy on my PC of all my saves.



Thenw ith those saves, I modded very little.



But one I went nuts, and gave everyone miniguns....placed the hardest difficulty ...lv 6, gave myself 500 talent points or what not.



Then I downloaded the patch. Played with it, for around 4 hrs. going from jaack, all the way to end of horizon. And nothing wrong happended. No crashes or anything like that.



ANd that was patching an ALREADY heavy modified game. Heck I got two geth shield boosts in that one :P.



I also tried my others, that I redistributed the points with Gibbed Editor. Worked fine for an hour, didn't play more.



And lastly I tried the files, that I had redistributed the points using a+x, but not gibbed. And also worked fine.



So....as much as I can tell everything works fine, with small modified, medium modified, and heavily modified files....



I dont really know how, since what I am doing doesn't work on PC coding I know....but it WORKS :P so :P.



You can always unpatch your console by doing maintenance and everything and revert w/e you feel aint right without erasing DLCs........



holy **** thats it..... HAHAHAHAHAHA

So simple....so simple, I just realize how to download overlord without the patch...wow

Bioware, any chance we can get the collector chitin armour as dlc, because not everyone has the collector edition

People paid ten bucks extra for the collector items. That would better be damn expensive DLC. :P

I know this wasn't mentioned, but does this patch cover the Conrad Verner glitch, or did I miss out on another patch that fixed this? Or is there just no patch at all for this?

I don't know if they'll ever patch it, since it wasn't properly recorded in the save file.

My guess is they can't fix it because it's a glitch in the save transfer system not recognizing the choices made in me 1.

Udina/Anderson had the same problem (Councilor wasn't recorded properly), but they fixed that by making Jacob ask you who you picked as Councilor the last time around.

Oh well, I guess I'll have to deal with Conrad thinking I waved a gun in his face then. Thanks for the answers guys.
