If the combine the controls and ease of use of the hammerhead with the artillery power and defenses of the Mako, they will have the perfect vehicle

I had this odd glitch happen on Illos during a recent playthrough. Through some combination of using the jets on my Mako and driving, my vehicle suddenly decided that the world had no gravity and made driving it almost impossible. It would get hung up on corners and go flying if I used the jets, don't even get me started on trying to turn.

That is one of my many problems with the Mako's driving mechanics.

I remember one time in the Mako on Ilos, it suddenly decided to flip upside down at the top of the looong path of water.

I had to watch it slide...all the way down...ever so slowly...

I was rofling. Legitimately on the floor ROLLING in laughter.

I love The Mako.

I disagree phaedon. There is always something to improve, and even then the mako only had trouble due to wonky physics and the random bumpmapping of ME1 worlds.

I believe that if you had trouble with bumpmapping, you had already rode a hill too far high than you should. I don't actually see what was wrong about the physics themselves.

In any case I prefer the mako over the hammerhead because it feels much more like an actual... Military vehicle than the hammerhead ever will. I remember watching a ME3 trailer recently, and seeing a few battles in action. All the vehicles looked built for battle, heavy (save for the fighters) and when I look at the hammerhead... I remember how it felt it really made me miss the mako.

That's valid. And you are referring to the krogan trucks?


The physics made the mako feel almost as light as the hammerhead is. Rolling down a hill, or boosting with a thruster just felt funny, and the bumpmapping was more a problem when the obvious "paths" made felt hidden. Some of the side stuff was hard to get to.

Which is why I loved luna, favorite spot to explore.

Yes I was talking about the krogan trucks, those things look like they were ready for conflict. I just can't imagine the hammerhead being anywherer there is conflict. It just doesn't... Feel right, its hard to put into words.

I never had any trouble with the Mako. Hardly ever even used to turret zoom, felt too much like an "easy button" But then, I play on a PC, maybe they refined the controls for the port.

The Hammerhead, otoh, felt like it was only useful as a signal fire to tell the Normandy where to drop a Mako at...

I will grudginly admit the hammerhead is fun to drive, but it needs a lot of improvement. Such as a direct fire weapon. The targetting on those missle were dodgy at best.

I loved the Mako. Driving the Hammerhead was fun, but comparable to a paper airplane in terms of durability.

The Featherhead is weak, that's why it feels like it doesn't belong in conflict.

Also, it feels very videogamey. The Mako felt like it could be a legit vehicle(although it did need to feel a bit heavier).

The Featherhead though is just ridiculous in the gamey sense. Even the levels were built to be very gamey and not very realistic.

 I remember one time a Thresher came up out of the ground underneath the Mako sending it flying through the air and landing completely on it's back. I was frantically used it's jets to right itself. I did, though not untill it was pretty much a fireball on wheels. Image IPBFun.

The Mako is legendary. Image IPB

lol I remember once the Mako got stuck on top on some rocks on the rescue mission for Liara ( I think) and one of the wheels got stuck so I was trying to get unstuck so iam spaming jets and then all of a sudden the mako goes spining around and around and rolls into lava

The Mako, was cool and the Hammerhead was...........well....it was. Look, I'd be happier if they gave a us Gunship this time. Forget about rolling and hovering around.

We all seem to have our own little Mako stories to share.

The Mako was fun, however some of the terrain you had to drive it on was not. Collecting minerals that were on top of a super steep mountain sometimes took forever to get to. that sort of thing always made me want to smash stuff

I liked squeezing the Mako through the path on Therum that they wanted you to take on foot.

You gotta shimmy the Mako until it gets through, and then if you drive it all the way to the cutscene where the geth surprise attack you, they all just stand there and you can freely kill them all.

It breaks the game for a moment. I love it.

I personally hated both of them. Much like exploration, I feel like Bioware's overall efforts with vehicle sequences are pretty clear indicators that they should stop worrying about them altogether.

No. You're not.


Agreed.

thats what I was trying to do lol cause I was playing my friends file and he was so weak and had no money to buy armor or anything so he died all the time so we tried glitching mako past rocks and it went badly we had the Mako get 2 front wheels stuck in the ground and then it slowly rolled forward and fell through the ground and I was like wtf so I walked where the mako was and stood there for a few mins and laughed with my friend then all of a sudden the mako dropped from the sky and killed me

I also had an experience on Therum where I saved my game while inside the mako just past the gate area (with the turrets) and just before the 2 sets of 2 armatures on the way to the collossus. I guess the game doesn't like where I saved since every time I load that game it sends the mako flipping like 20-30 feet in the air. cracks me up every time

Vehicle exploration may not be only reason for Mass Effect, but it's part of the equation.

I agree, vehicle exporation is part of the definitive Mass Effect experience as established by Mass Effect 1(I say this because vehicle exploration is present in Mass Effect 2 albeit only by downloading the DLC Overlord).

Overlord was created to adress the lack of vehicle exploration in Mass Effect 2, now Bioware I implore you do not place vehicle exploration as DLC for Mass Effect 3 thereby making it feel as if it is some kind of add-on. Integrate it in Mass Effect 3 as in Mass Effect 1, not necessarily as a part of the critical part but for sidequests, just as in Mass Effect 1.

Exactly. I don't think Bioware should follow the rule of "Third time's a charm".

Mako > Hammerhead.

Ya the hammerhead was not as fun as the mako in a way but the mako can get extreamly boring as well.  Both have there ups and downs


the terrain was boring in me1, not the mako
