What impressed me most in Kronner's video was the ability to hold the new assault rifle (with its nice, tight targeting reticule) on target -- the real target, the head.



As a Revenant devotee, I often switch weapons to heavy pistol for crouching targets with the top of their heads showing. That won't be a problem any more, apparently.



With adrenaline rush , head shots will be devastating. Even without AR, the gun seems to allow fairly accurate fire on the move. This should more than make up for the relative lack of ammo.



I also would like to see some stats.



Beyond that, the "shotgun" has real potential. You can direct squad biotics and tech from behind cover, charge up and then blast the enemies up close.

I was screwing around with the Geth shotty and I got it to rapid fire a couple of times (2 quick shots in rapid succession), but I don't remeber how exactly did I get it to do that. Can someone explain this "rapid fire" feature?

My god, the AR sounds like a bolt action sniper rifle, but with rapid succession.

I know, just listening to the Mattock is awesome, reminds me of the M-19 Garand  :)


Just wait for my video.

Nothin but a Vanguard going INSANE on YMIR Mechs.

Geth Pulse Gun is awesome, but it cannot one-shot regular guys unless you charge it, and you do not have the time to do that after you charge a group. It also runs out of ammo quite easily. Does not beat Claymore in my book, but it instantly became my second most favourite shotgun. The AR is just sick, not great ammo count but does insane damage and you can fire it pretty quickly, beats Vindicator in my opinion. I do not really care for Pistols in general, but Hand Cannon seems better than the new Pistol.


I haven't done a test, but I'm sure the New Pistol is more accurate because of the lazer. It's easier to get a headshot with it. I'd say save it for people with armor, or bad guys without defenses. If they have shields, overload them first, then attack.

Just got the pack. Glad to see that EA/Bioware are really starting to mix the weapons up a bit, shame we didn't get this kind of variety on release, but never mind, beggars can't be choosers. I hope they comtinue with these sets, the more variety, the better.



These new weapons are definitely good in the right hands. The Phalanx is beastly, a hard heavy hitter, and the laser sight is cool! Not really my preference in a pistol though, I prefer the capacity and the speed of the Predator. Still, a good option for squadmates.



I absolutely love the Mattock. It's like the DMR from Halo: Reach, or an old M14. Really is my style of ranged weapon, especially due to the ability to fire fast when I need to. Just wish sniper wern't as enticing. A playthrough without a sniper rifle just doesn't seem like me. I think I'm going to have to do another Infiltrator (shame becuase I much prefer the tech of the engineer. If only I could trade that bloody SMG for AR's :().



I haven't really tried the Geth Shotgun. Dissapointing I can't give it to Legion. I like running him with Geth Weaponry (I keep the Pulse rifle as one of his personal features). Seems useful though, definitely powerful when used right.

You can precharge the shotgun, charge and then hit someone with the full load, I think this actually offers some great possibilities for a vanguard. Definitly my new favourite gun so far.

Sold! This is so becoming my new main shotgun.

Still not sure on the Mattock, though. But it seems to be fitting weapon amongst an equipment set full of trophies, such as a handcannon from one of your allies, an SMG that killed two presidents, the new geth shotgun and the Collector Particle Beam.

That's what I needed to hear! I also like how it looks, kind of like a an old sci-fi weapon of some kind of resistance faction. That makes it perfect for Shepard and co.

Just downloaded the pack. Ive been playin on vetern and the weapons are pretty nice.

The shotty is decent  great but i would not use it with a chargin vanguard because it has to charge to get really good damage out of it. without chargin its pretty decent but it doesnt hav much ammo. i think 10 shots all charged.

The pistol is neat but a bit hard to use for long range. it gets rid of the redicule and replaces it with a laser sight that tend to jump around when moving, but it does really good damage.

The assault rifle is my favorite. pretty much its a scopeless sniper rifle that fires as fast as u can pull the trigger which is great for me since i can empty the clip in less than 2 secs.

overall the pack is worth it for the new toys, but this SHOULD be on the cerberus network. hopefully the shadowbroker dlc will have some new toys as well, that way there will be some replay value like kasumi dlc.

I don't like the pistol very much. When my usual crosshair disappears, I need to spend a second of two trying to spot that little blue dot. I keep losing sight of the little laser and it virtually disappears against light-coloured targets like Geth Troopers.

Well, I'm playing on an 32' HDTV, so the lazer isn't a problem.

I play on an HDTV as well and I still lose track of that tiny little laser. Might just be because I'm used to following the red crosshair and I get a little lost when it disappears on me.

My videos are being processed and what not again.

Hopefully this time youtube won't degrade the quality after processing is completed.

Nope. Got degraded twice.

What the hell, youtube. MUST INVESTIGATE.

Clicking on the "PC" button sends me back to the main page rather than the download page. Haven't had that happen yet.

Yes, squadmates can use the new weapons. Thankfully!

The Geth shotgun is awesome, one of my new favorite weapons- it took out a Blue Suns lieutenant (biotic barrier+armor) in one shot. Granted, it was powered up and he was in the open, but still, one shot to take down enemy shields and barriers and 90% of health in ONE shot.

This pack whas already done in Wednesday 26 may 2010, don't believe me right mouse click on the .exe file and look at the digital signature.....it seems Bioware keeps their dlc's so they can charge money for it. (if i remember correctly that whas the date when the firewalker pack got released....why didnt they release this as a bonus ?) :sick:

I saw a picture on a forum from someone posting that.

No, it's more of spacing it out, so each month they have something, instead of 2 or 3 months of nothing between Overlord and Shadow Broker.

With the Gibbed Save Editor and about 10 minutes, you can have an Engineer with New Mattock Heavy Rifle, a sniper rifle of your choice (from selecting weapons training) and a Heavy pistol, OR switch the Heavy Pistol for a Shotgun of your choice, running around with Legion, equipped with the Geth Shotgun, AND the Geth AR

The Gibbed Save Editor is available for Xbox and PC
