I think it did make us look bad though. not because he person made an official complain but the way it was worded to make it look like we were all behind it. We have had some bad PR and it wouldn't be much of a stretch for someone to read that complaint and start spreading it as being something *we* said.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned, but the movement is now being featured on web.de

It's a major german web-portal & email-provider. Tons of traffic on their site.
This is really starting to take off


More good news, the more aware people are of us the more effective this movement will be.:D


Can't read German....but I did read Online Petition!!! With a link to the charity! Yay! :)

While holding the line, is it proper to ask the best way to kill a Banshee in ME3? The Damn thing is dangerous! In the last fight with a group of them I had to run around a lot, and spent some good medigels. And died a couple of times, probably...

I began to think if there was no bug with their regen or shield.

I'm assuming that ME3 will have a new ending. Otherwise I'm probably uninstalling them.


I'd always kill the banshee's with a head shot....worked everytime for me.


That fight at the end felt kind of cheap imo. "BRUTES! JUST THROW BRUTES AT HIM!!" "NOW BANSHEES!! ANOTHER GO!"  I mean what were there like 5 or 6 Brutes and 4 or 5 banshees?


I hated it. I almost died because I wasn't expecting so many of them to show up at the same time. 

And Garrus. Garrus kills brutes and banshees faster than most of your squadmates. 


Thanks, everyone.

About it being cheap, I agree. I felt like the fight almost forced you to have "tank" companions with you by that time. And that is not good. But, hey. Garrus is always with me. :)


It got a little too much there, then I figured I didn't have to fight them all, and just ran to shoot the robots. And it worked! !

I really am intrigued into wondering what the devs must be feeling right now considering the massive sh*tstorm the ending has caused. I actually feel sorry for them.

No kidding......Im really surprised, i even use that provider
We are making Progress People our readiness is rising.

that is awesome. Now we've got web.de, how about gmx and yahoo, msn, google.. first time in days I get my hopes at least a bit up!

I just really HOPE the horrible "paper" BILD is not reporting anything. They tend to do it in a sensation-grabbing tabloid style which holds nothing but lies and unnecessary anger.

Nothing wrong with Skype drinkage, I do it all the time ^_^ With bros and sis's from another forum. Don't usually post here tbqh. Also, internet people seem to have more in common with one another, since one usually meets folk on forums about specific things (i.e. Mass Effect!) you all have a common interest in.

None of my friends in real life even own a game console, and I'm completely obsessed with gaming. Which necessitates the internet with all it's glorious people.

I'm on my 3rd whiskey. Things are starting to seem so blissfully good. Ah, sweet weekend. 

Holding the line with a Particle Rifle X in one hand and a drink in the other. Robodog is scouting ahead for news.

Drinking with online buddies isn't that bad. Try drinking AND playing online with said buddies, makes it even funnier.

Though I can't drink Whiskey. This and Sherry makes me sooo ill. It's not the amount of it, I just can't drink it at all. Even one glass of some red wines give me headaches next day.

 

i suppose you're both quite right :) and pretty much the same here. the only other person i've got to obsess about video games is one of the barkeepers at my favorite metal bar. but since he only works thursdays.. oh well. :)

only started on my first beer. wanted to write that letter first.. but damn, my handwriting is bad. 

i have the same with red wine.. but i do enjoy whiskey, gin and good rum. i usually get less of a headache.

Infiltrator Disruptor Ammo + Energy Drain (Or whatever it was) + Garrus Overload = Shields/Barriers down almost instantly

Then

Liara Warp + Incinerate (Real fast CD) + Slow down Sniper = Dead almost anything real quick.

Even then I had to use Tactical Cloak to run to the end to hit the switch before anyone died lol.  Hopefully that wasn't just me D:

Day 4. Still depressed. I hope ill get over it soon, my wife starts to think im crazy.
Dreamt of ME this night, dont remember the context but it was painful. Its amazing what influence this game has on people.

I would go to hell and back to get a proper ending, not the "let's be artistic and destroy galactic civilization anyway" stuff :(


I woke up hearing the Codex about indoctrination.
I thought my brother was playing in the living room, but nope, he was just watching a movie.
I... got a bit scared.

They are basically saying that

"....dark clouds are gathering above Bioware HQ.
Most Fans are upset that the ending is to dark (90%) and only 3 % are fine with it"

And they were mentioning our Charity Drive that gathered 53K (and rising) for Child's Play.
Also they hope for a HAPPY end on our case

Liara was useless in that section of the game she might as well been throwing paper planes at them for all the use she had.


I brought Garrus and Kaidan.
Garrus killed more than I did, and I had Kaidan use cryo ammo, so they would all shatter when Garrus or I shot them afterwards.

There are already sites that think he was one of our group. Thankfully, many comments are being made that it's not supported.

The more I watch that one, multi colored ending, the more depressing it gets.
And I'm not saying I'm looking for a clear cut, happy ending, just a quality ending that takes into account my choices. I was told we'd have 16 endings. We barely had 1 ending.
Actually, Crono Trigger, a game on the SNES, had more varied endings than this.

I guess you could call me a newcomer if you want, but mostly that's because the site finally let me stay online instead of immediately logging me off after it went to another BSN page >.<

But regardless, after beating ME 1 & 2, I immediately went into replaying those games. Mass Effect 3 made me just not want to play Mass Effect at all... even the first or second game Image IPB

So now I'm planning on playing Skyrim, because I used to adore Mass Effect, but then I took a bad ending to the knee.

It does nothing at all does the post say he did it for the movement, for you, for me? it say "I" the "report" is so off it's silly. My goat just said baaaaa "OMG the movement has employed goats hoping to make a stand against/for PETA" Going to the site to say hey thats not us is just silly let people see bad reports are bad.


I think you're operating on the assumption that everyone who reads the article understands Retake Mass Effect.

Not every single person who reads that "report" is going to automatically know what Retake Mass Effect is about, and not everyone who reads the report will know what makes it bad. As such, it is my opinion that it was not necessary to file an FTC complaint when it has been only around a weeks time.

Jumping the proverbial gun.

The article summarizes the situation and talks how we went farther than just complaining, how we set up the petition and the charity as well as the facebook and Twitter stuff. They're interested in seeing how this will play out.

Thats because he is  Garrus  Vakarian ... he kills everything faster... I was playing my  FemShep Sentinal and hit Centurian with Overload before I could line the guy up... BOOM  head shot... it was Garrus. 

That Turian is a beast.
