I hope they read our requests. But even if they do, they wasn't able to fix helmets in ME2 for all the time even when masses of people were complaining. No we have helmets solved, but we have this another fatal issue.

The helmet thing is small-time compared to this. Often after clearing a room of enemies, i like to look around and see if i left a datapad or perhaps some item / point of interest un-noticed.

I feel like the biggest douche ever looking around the room, pointing my sniper-rifle at everything. Really kills the mood for me.

I also found myself often walking from place A to place B with my weapon holstered, now i find myself sprinting everywhere.

A patch would be nice.

Don't be silly.

All PC gamers are pirates, they deserve nothing more than a sloppy console port with blurry textures, no multiplayer text-chat, horrible fov, no real anti-aliasing and crappy controls (seriously, you'd think the keyboard has enough buttons for a separate "USE" and "take cover" button).

And didn't they say it's due to consoles memory limitations or something?

I doubt they would do so... we are not paying a motnhly fee and this is not an mmo unfortunately

In combat areas, you have your gun out... in more hub-like areas you don't.

It's unfortunate, but sadly it was needed to claw back a significant chunk of memory. 

Hey Brendan,

I can understand the sacrifice needed with all the new movements, unfortunately it turns Shepard into a toy soldier stuck in that fixed combat position. I noticed when she (in my case) faces a wall or squad mate she'll lower her weapon. Could this possibly be mapped to the 'back' button much like the holster was? Personally I'd give up the quicksave as the combat stance is very stagnant and really does detract from the emersion in the fights.

Thanks!

A lot of animations are lacking, apparently the PS3 couldn't handle it so superior PC hardware couldn't either.

 This right here is one of many reasons i decided to pirate this game. This is such a sloppy console port it's not even funny. Sorry to the console crowd, if it really is a hardware limitation -- but pissing on the PC crowd like this does not get you my $60.

Until you learn how to create a game that takes advantages of the PC hardware i'll continue to pirate. ****** off VaporWare.

I am sorry to say this, but that is a childish way of thinking, and also a poor excuse for not paying for the games you play. One of the basic principles of business is that you tailor your product for a paying customer. If you do not pay for your games, you have no right to complain, plain and simple: how can you find faults in something you got for free? And why should BioWare listen to you? Because if they do, you are going to go out and buy their game? Really? Who guarantees that, you? Do you give your scouts' honor?

Anyway, this thread, and many others like it, serve to inform BioWare of our discontent with certain decisions they made while designing this product. We, as paying customers, have the right to voice our opinions. It's why this forums exist. BioWare, on the other hand, have the right to heed them or don't, as they see fit: they made the product, after all. However, a paying customer today may not be one tomorrow. Mass Effect 3 is a finale of the Shepard saga, and as such there was no way I wouldn't buy it. Next BioWare game though? I'll think thrice. But even if I don't buy it, I won't pirate it, either, because that would be a hypocrisy: if you like a game well enough to play it, you owe it to the developer to buy it. End of story.

[shunjalo]

I am dissapointed in this game too, that's why I post complaints about it (if you read the threads about holstering and exploration camera you will see I made numerous posts condemning the decision to remove them and asking for an alternative). However, I don't see how one has the right to "play but not pay". Trying the game out is one thing (there is a demo, after all), but playing it? And bragging about it? Sorry, no. I will not say more about this, because it is an endless topic and would derail the thread.

Brenon, could you bring more details into that? It's a RAM memory issue or disc-space file size issue? It's a problem exclusive to the demo or the full game too?

It's a runtime memory cost, not a disk space issue. You need those anims for the non-combat areas... so they're going to be on disk regardless.

In order to support exploration in the combat areas, you'd need to have all the anims loaded in memory... so that would be things like the 8-way walks, runs, incline anims, idles, idle twitches, male/female variant overrides, eye noise... etc.

All in all (iirc) it came out to around 2-4MB, which is relatively significant. Also, as you've guessed, yes - I'm referring to the main game (as well as the demo).

It seems as though you guys compressed a lot of the animations as well, especially in scriptables. Was this primarily to allow for improved texture quality? 

[xx-Helljumper-xx]

Just got the game on PC and have played it for 15 minutes. Raged quit as soon as I steped out on Mars and realised I couldn't holster my rifle. I've been looking around and dispite the memory issues on consoles has their been an offical statement from bioware on this issue? Where do they stand?

[Alpr]

Fussing about not being able to holster your weapon? Seriously? Kids these days. I bet your mommy bought ME3 for you.

I'm playing now and its absolutely not like it was when i switched from ME1 to ME2. It's just not my Shepard in ME3. Its not the way i want to play without holstering and FoV and with so limited dialogue options and choices to make. The game have absolutely great things in it that i love and thank BIOWARE for them. But it's just not Mass Effect RPG/Action i loved so much. Its a different game that resembles Mass Effect

I agree 100%. The limited dialogue choices (you can "feel" the points where choice should be made, but isn't), too narrow FOV, no holstering (bugs me a lot), sub-par journal, crude animations... it all points to a conclusion that BioWare has bitten more that they can chew. That's why I think it's important to sound off. If BioWare have any shred of respect left for it's players, they should take the time to address as much of criticism as is technically possible. Dialogue is already recorded, but the rest? The rest could technically be patched. Will it be? Only BioWare knows, and they play mute. However, I know they read this forums (even if they don't sound off), and I know they are aware of the criticism expressed by the players. That's why I keep posting. Hope dies last, right?

[Eraser74]

I completely agree with most of the people here. Not being able to holster the weapon or lowering it is just silly and ruins a great deal of atmosphere of an otherwise great game.

It really looks as if Shephard is just a stupid shooterfigure stuck in this stupid pose.

That and the reason that it´s now really hard to get a good look of the surroundings is what ruins the experience.

But I bet that Bioware won´t do anything about it. They probably won´t even comment on this problem. It´s just sad.

[Galbrant]

Well that will take some getting use to.

[Eraser74]

It´s just plain lazy from Bioware.

God. I hate it when i have an amazing view, and i can't look around it properly. Imagine standing on the edge of a mountain, POINTING YOUR GUN FORWARDS. Christs sakes, this is really killing a great deal of athmosphere for me.

Yes, yes yes. It's about atmosphere and immersion for me. Not for everyone I know, just was a real neat way that added enjoyment to my game experience. 

Still love the game, but when I noticed they took it out - /disappointed 

[Matt VT Schlo]

The lack of holstering really, really bothered me initially, but 12 hours in the game and its a total non issue. I've embraced the bizarre running animations too....the good in this game so far outweighs this kinda stuff that its very forgivable.

[jackygates]

On the PS3 ME2 had the holster weapon button was Select but now ME3 every time I push it it auto saves I know this is a good thing to have a auto save button but I want my holster weapon button back lol I want to see my armor and stuff when in the field sucks you can't look at armor when in hubs like the Cit! you only have Casual clothes on...  I will /sign for patch but if it won't happen its not a huge deal just sucks o well

Brenon holmes, thank you for answering people's concerns. I hope now people would stop going on about this subject.
