So any word from Estebanus?


No, why?


He's at SDCC right now.

Well he's been there for a while.

If by a while you mean he got there earlier today, then yeah, I guess.

California... COMICS can do horrible things to the mind. What if all we get back is a slobbering Willy Wonka drone with a German accent and a fetish for spandex and pastries!?

Nope. I don't. Hence why I sound like an idiot sometimes.

I'm expecting a tragedy and a duel with poisoned blades at the very least.

Well, he survived a skirmish in the mid-west. There's hope.

Shame. Such a lack of speculation. Then again there is not much to talk about is there. We need a troll in here. Or maybe a leak by BioWare. That would be nice. :)

You know... I could have gone just about the rest of my life without seeing that. Thanks. :lol:

Nothin to speculate on right now, plus a lot of people are away right now.

Come to this? It was like this from day 5 of the old thread.

Though I will admit that the thread is currently moving at the speed of geologic timescales.

And I agree with Starbuck's assessment. Kai Leng is a very shallow character, to be honest, while yes I intend to read the novels, if they explore and expand him as a nemesis in some DLC it would improve my opinion of him, I kind of liked the idea of him being a sort of Bane to Shepard's Batman (****** off Rifneno, we're not getting into another debate about the relative benefits of Batman. It was the best comparison I could think of) but for the most part, all he managed to be was kind of fun to hate.

I don't care what people say about thermal clips they still act like bullets I totally agree with Verner it's a stupid idea.


Never said I didn't agree with you, I really preferred the idea they had in development for ME2 that they scrapped, being that you could fire the gun as much as you liked like in ME 1, but if you needed to cool down the weapon rapidly, you could flush the clip and fire again immediately, unfortuately it was cut due to balance issues.

Thats how I kinda figured it worked in ME2, yknow, for people other than the player because of balance, until Shepard herself shot down that idea in ME3.

I'm sane, its just that 'plasma' suggests that it is infact a plasma weapon.

If that's not the case, that's fine. Its just misleading.

And I'm pretty sure the flamer is an energy weapon, considering it fires off sparks (talking about the Vorcha one, not the Firestorm). Again, if its not its sure doing a good job pretending it is...


Since I feel like educating;

An "energy weapon" is a weapon that makes use of pure energy as ballistic material, using excited atoms or particles, such as the particle rifle and Collector beams. Thus far it seems only Protheans truly ever mastered or made use of energy type weapons.

All other weapons in the Mass Effect universe are "traditional" in a sense. Thanix cannons and Reaper beams make use of a stream of superheated molten metal accelerated to light speed, making use of intense heat, the napalm like nature of the metal, as well as the acceleration and surface area of the liquid to cause extreme thermal and kinetic damage.

"plasma" weapons, such as the Geth Shotgun, are not technically plasma weapons in the traditional Warhammer 40,000 sense. What Geth shotguns specifically do is fire electrically charged ammunition, which then flash sublimates on contact, reducing itself to a superheated plasma form prior to contact. The Spitfire, which while similar in ammuniton, does not do the same thing, instead firing doughnut shaped toroids, which shatter and arc electrical currents between them, causing burns and short circuts. Similar principles apply to ARC weapons, which use a laser to "paint" a target, ionizing the air and creating a low charge area through which an electrical charge is then channeled.

Most other weapons are either self-explanatory in their own descriptions (such as the Avalanche, which actually takes traditional ammunition and reduces it down to superchilled Bose-Einstein condensate, a supercooled superconducting fluid.) or use traditional ammunition pellets, which are shaved down to their proper size, composition and shape to deal with the task of reaching their target by the smart computers inside of the gun itself.

Thats basically what I said later in that same conversation. :whistle:

Form following function I'm afraid.

Shame really. I'm with Conrad on this one. Even if he is the dumbest smart person I have ever seen. After that comment about the shrine in his bedroom and his nonexistent wife I keep worrying that he'll like, start sniffing my hair and ask for a lock of it, or maybe snap and try to harvest my organs or something.
