Well, for players who aren't inclined to read codex entries explaining the mechanics of sci-fi weaponry, you can't exactly have Anderson say, "Grab some heat-sinks so your gun can cool off and fire more slugs from its inexplicably plentiful ammo block," now, can you?


Uuh, it's referred to as a thermal clip in the ME2 tutorial, and I don't remember anyone's head exploding.


It's called "cheek," son, don't take it seriously.

In Mass Effect: Retribution, Captain Anderson resigns from his Citadel position (Advisor/Councillor)and sets out to pursue Cerberus who took captive an Alliance officer.. BioWare's way of streamlining the branched out story...


Or just a way to change the story the story and not explain why. I'm not going to give them credit for something they didn't put in the game.

Anderson refers to thermal clips as Ammo...

I twitched. Hard. Especially since there's been the 'It's not ammo!' argument being repeated ad infinitum since ME2.


For one, it's a clip used for weapons to shoot bullets.

For two, you reload and fire more.

Based on this, it IS ammunition.


I second that. Actually they call it ammo for metagame purposes. They do not want to confuse newbies with the term "clips". Ammo people can understand but unfortunately the majority of the customers play ME like the next shooter and they do not care about the story nor the codex entries. Sad but true for all games. So ammo is! :P

No offense - but backing away from one's own creation because 'newbies could be confused' is a horrible idea and a horrible excuse. But if you go with that - what's next? Krogan's become Space-Orcs, Drell Space-Elves - because after all, the average gamer has heard of those races but not of Krogans, Salarians, Asari and Drell?

But to avoid further discussions (and if it should come into play I will not take part in it) let's just move away from the Thermo/Thermal Clip or Ammo or whatever - this was about additional aspects of Anderson's lines as well.
No matter if they are an old build or a specific set due to a specific combination of choices for the default character is unclear and I doubt anyone from BW will clear this up. So - we have what, 2 1/2 weeks left and some questions will be answered.
Of course we might or might not even see certain lines due to installed and played DLC or specific personality choices - soooo, I'll just get out of here and wish you all a happy waiting :)
