I see I'm not the only one who found this amusing :P

It's like some bizarre homage to Mortal Kombat...


"A handful of people on a stealth ship are going to save the galaxy..." "EXACTLY!"

edit - Yes.  This was actually already in my screenshot folder <.<


I'm shocked.... no, not really. ;)

Edit: ToP Shep. Still not reached ME3, so an Elf image from two weeks ago.

Personally this doesn't affect me, but I know a few people who are, and I understand that they are beyond angry about the way it turned out.
I should clarify a bit more though: It affects me too in a way, because i've grown to like the Characters from ME2 and it hurts to see how they are treated in ME3 (Thane of course being the most glaring example of writing gone wrong).

I think this is open to debate. I'm FAR MORE displeased with Zaeed's part in ME3 than Thane's.

Now i don't have a sense of entitlement about the game so I don't feel he was "mistreated" or that I've been "wronged" in any way. But as far as personal disappointment, I felt it the most with Zaeed.

Asmuch as I love Zaeed, he was DLC. Thane was a romance-option in ME2. While you can certainly be disappointed in Zaeed's treatment, claiming it more glaring then them dropping the ball so severely on a romance character isn't quite right. No offence.

Yeah. Considering how big role he had in ME2, the way they treated Thane in ME3 is just unfair.

I'm not offended. I respect your right to be mistaken. Posted Image

Just because a follower doesn't "plook" Shepard at the end of the game doesn't make them automatically unimportant (See Garrus and Tali in ME1).  

I'm pretty sure none of my 11 Shepards see Zaeed as a "DLC".  Posted Image

I so much agree with this! Seeing the great character that Zaeed is reduced to a mere hustler was just too painful.


Said better than I. As usual.

Neither do mine, I never claimed Zaeed was unimportant or that he wouldn't have deserved more.
I have an issue with the way you express that though, and I pick up on it, because I'm sure I'll not be the only one whose unamused by you using Thane's treatment as a point of argument for it, seeing as it's wholely unnessecary, illogical and potentially gets on people's ******.

Hmm, i might actually be picking up on this way too extremely. I shall retire from the discussion. Apologies.
I fell over the actual words missing the intended meaning.

At any rate, personally I feel alot of characters deserved more then they got, but then here's to hoping we might see more of them in future DLC still.

@ ele - ty for linky to codes

To anyone else: what settings are you guys using for you graphics cards to run ME3? i have new card with new drivers and am yet to figure out what settings can render best. my computer is fairly decent in the graphics department, so i'm really disappointed with how crappy everything looks. really awful shadow work, lights switching on/off, etc. any ideas?

What card do you have now? ME series isn't that demanding at all so basically you can disable mesh lods and stuff like that without performance loss (in case you aren't forcing MSAA or SSAA).

Nvidia 9800GT - mainly wondering about antialiasing/multi vs. super sampling. and yes, this is femshep related ! - couldn't get me1 to work properly (every grpahic was majorly pixelated), then realized i simply had to set graphics card to run that game with supersampling enabled and everything was awesome.

atm, got horrible shadows - they all look 'flaky' and not at all shaded properly, etc. truthfully, i'm about as techie as kyrie is - i can follow instructions, but i don't quite know what does what until i break it. :pinched:

I could tweak ME1 settings for you (or ME2&3 too), I just need your config for ini version numbers. Also, be sure that you use your monitor's native resolution.

From my experience though, my old 9800 GTX+ wasn't enough to do 1080p with antialiasing on (MSAA is hacky as hell in UE3 -> performance hit is large and memory usage rises). FXAA or SMAA injectors are pretty good compromises though. ME3 has built in FXAA support, though I force 8xMSAA+4xTrSSAA via NVIDIA CP myself and for ME1 I also force ambient occlusion. At lower resolutions 4xMSAA is probably possible without sacrificing frame rate too much.

It was the "I think this is open to debate" that set me off, which on it's own isn't per say, positive. Especially seeing what they did to Thane, which when you know the details is hardly something 'debatable'. Hence the falling over words instead of meaning.
Anyways. Blah. Yeah, bit out of my zone today, sorry.

thanks for the headsup. got some changes made, gonna fire up game.

also saw that for my graphics care, me3 is 'not recommended' as a game that it plays well with. <_<  yeah, just... well. i'll work with it.

Agreed.
Thane's treatment was bad as a friend...as a love interest, worse. But i got to see my friend go down with honor. Zaeed survives - but just as a shadow of his former self.
Jacob got the worst of both: it is simply blatant betrayal[to quote you]...

Not recommended? Bull... 9800 GTX+ runs it great at 1920x1080 with tweaks and FXAA. 9800 GT/8800 GT isn't that much slower. It's more than enough. Sometimes those recommendation things are way off.

By the way, for some reason BioWare doesn't have trilinear filtering enabled by default in ME1 and 2 (and by the looks of it, in 3 too). In ME1 you have to do lod tweaks in order to get highest quality spec maps (noticeable difference in armours, turians and asari heads for example). I've done quite a bit shadow related tweaks in ME1. Changed the shadowing system to VSM shadows, that combined with some filtering tweaks give much better results than the defaults in my opinion.

Mmmm... Makes me want to advance in ME1 again.

About Thane.... yeah, people who romanced him got the short end of the stick but then that was true for every ME2 romance, probably due to budget constrants. As for Thane dieing, I always thought that was a possibility and it was beautifully executed. In fact, I'd say that outside of the main missions (Tuchanka, Rannoch), his death scene in the hospital was Bioware writing at it's best.

However, it does completely suck that the people who romanced him didn't get any additonal scenes or dialogue whatsoever as he was pretty much written with Shepard as a friend in mind. So I totally understand all the complaints.

More of Madilyn... she has a name now! I'm probably going to try to make some approximation of her in ME1 and actually take her through all 3 games. I still need to think of a good background/personality for her, though. And, is she gonna be another Kaidan girl, or will she go for Liara? STAY TUNED

how can you destroy something that has as much charisma and personality as a plank of wood?
