@CrazyIvan93 aw I bet it's so cool being a turian, I am so missing out, everytime I end up connecting with someone using a turian I'm all ":wub: so cool" I think I tend to stalk them around the map.


LMAO! I did the exact same thing! When my friend got the Turian i was just following him around and when he got into cover, I would.... furiously "bump" into him back and forth, back and forth and he'd be like: "stop humping my Turian Ivan, we all know you can't keep your eyes off them!" LOL! But now I haz my own <3 (I bet you'll never guess what my 2 colors of my armor are B) )

I've been trying to unlock that Turian Sentinal and so far no luck. Is there a trick to it or is it pretty much just keep buying Veteran packages? I've unlocked a Drell Vanguard and a Quarian engineer, though. My gamer tag (I play on PC) is the same as my username if anyone wants to add me. I'm really enjoying the Multiplayer a lot! Do we know if our MP characters and gear will carryover to the real game yet?

@jellobell and @Blankeflos, GREAT game! I thought that I would completely fail! I am done for the night, but hope to kick some Cerberus A** again sometime!
@shygravel, Glad to see that you are teaching your kids the way of Mass Effect! Video game play is actually considered a good teaching technique now-a-days! teaches great reflexes! :D


Wow, it was awesome!! Now I see the huge difference between playing with friends and with random dudes who are just interested in scoring high and leveling up their characters. We should do it again!

I have no idea how you two assembled that group, I just kept pushing the join button until it worked. *NOOOOB* I tried to invite Hyrule_Gal, but I guess it didn't work. And I'm really sorry that in one match everything started to shake and I was dragged into limbo. :blink: I couldn't move nor shoot and had to get out and then come back again.

Oh God, US$100 the statue plus the shipping fee and I'm seriously considering buying it...

Can you play MP cross-platform? (...)

Unfortunately we can't. :pinched:

It's not all bad on my end though: My eldest - the five year old - is almost as excited about ME3 coming out as I am -- mostly because I'd let him play around with the Mako on ME1 and he longs for its return. XD So I'll have little cheerleaders to keep me company while I wait for the package to arrive. ^^


Aawww, that's sweet. One of my dearest memories from childhood is me and my brother playing Super Mario World with dad on sundays. We would always ask him to play for us cause we used to suck at it. XD

I was skeptical about the inclusion of multiplayer when I first heard about it, but it's actually not bad. And I have decided to make the best out of my Human Male Adept by naming him Hieronymous and dressing him up in fluorescent green armour. 

I was SUPER skeptical about how they would pull this off. I am pleasantly surprised with the 4 against Cerberus concept. I loved the fluorescent green btw! [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/lol.png[/smilie] Never knew I would use Shockwave so many times at once!

Those fluorescent armors are the best. You'll never blend in with Cerberus soldiers! B)


In another topic, yesterday I discovered the Mess Perfect series and GEEZ, that's hilarious!

I remeber that too! Jellobell, I remember both of us staring up at Blankeflos at the Landing pad, we would have been blind-sided by Cerberus if the wave wasn't at it's end! :D

That sounds so random, :blink: I've never had such craziness in my multiplayer games.

And I tend to use fluresent green armour for all my characters, bar my krogan he wears pink. And i plan to have my turian when I unlocked him, having blue :D or maybe pink... (just because pink is great online)

Pffft.

If I can't have Garrus, then I'll go with Liara. Or Ashley. Or Samantha. Or even Kelly!

I can't settle for a crater, after all.

Hmmm, who would I settle for if I couldn't have Garrus?

Well Prothy would be at the top of the list if he was a romance option (curse you Bioware!). I'm warming up to James Vega strangely enough. His hideousness is actually a point in  his favour, because for some reason I always think that Bioware tries a bit too hard with the guys who are supposed to be attractive and it turns me right off (*cough*Jacob*cough).

And I just found this and I have to post it because it makes me laugh.

You really think so? I actually believe is the other way around; they don’t try at all, or just outright don’t wanna...

Yay more new people ^^
@CrazyIvan93 all turians ARE awesome, I only wish i was lucky enough to get one in multiplayer, i have unlocked asari adept, krogan soldier and salarian infilrator, :'( but no turian sentinal (which i want most).


What level are you?  We're level 68 and CANNOT unlock a krogan or turian.  Hopefully when retail comes out, we can unlock/buy the things we want, when we want it.

Welcome new peoples!  Glad to see everyone coming out of lurkdom, there's always room for more Garrus love.  <3

I'm like 56 or something, but I know some people who unlocked the turian in their starter pack.

No, I think they do try. Just look at Thane; they were trying to make the Magical Garrus Lightning strike twice. And it sort of worked but they just had to slap on that same tired backstory that they give to all of their "sexy" male LIs. You can tell which ones they really want the ladies to like because they always have a Dead Girlfriend/Wife somewhere in their pasts.

Just look at Carth and Sky, those were the only male LIs in both KOTOR and Jade Empire and they were essentially the same character; muscled, experienced, calm and slightly world-weary because of his tragic past, has loved and lost before but the PC comes in to teach him how to love again. Somebody at Bioware thinks the ladies find that combination of traits dead sexy, and they might be right for some but it never really appealed to me. The first "Bioware" LI that I actually liked was Atton, and he wasn't even created by Bioware.

They've gotten better ever since DA:O, but you can still see these tropes in their characters, moreso in Kaidan and Thane than any other I think. Hell, if you mashed Kaidan and Thane together you'd get Carth. 

So I guess my point is that whenever Bioware tries to appeal to the ladies they end up relying on the same handful of tropes, which makes me wary whenever they announce that this or that LI is targeted at us.

Ahaha, awesome. 

I would buy a top that said, "Hoping for Garrus. Will not settle for anything closer to home."

What does third quarter mean? I'm surprised it's even up for preorder considering they haven't even released a colored version yet...

Also has anyone made a PUG yet for the people on this thread? O:

Oh I see, you’re talking about personality traits, background, that kind of thing. I was talking about physical attractiveness (that typically starts with a good face).
All males, specially humans look like frogs and that includes standart male Shepard. Hell, even my custom maleShep look prettier (in an unassuming way) than any human guy you’ll find in the game.
But to throw them a bone I’ll say that after playing the demo I noticed they improved Alenko, a lot. He looked pretty damn leprechauny in the other 2.

Ok  It's luck of the draw I guess! 

It would be so fun to be in a 4-Turian match one day!  :o

It would be as awesome, or more likely better than the 4- krogan team (although that was hilareous)
