Can't speak for everyone in the forum but I was thinking today and am curious as I know you guys play MP, what is your favorite character and weapon? No secret ones:) just items we have access to

[Derek Hollan]

Admittedly, I enjoy playing engineers (any of them) and soldiers.

I don't try to top the scoreboard, I just try to stick with the team to ensure safety in numbers and support.

I'm not as proficient with the infiltrator as much as, say, Bryan Johnson (any fan who has played with him knows he's got mad skillz ) but I do like it when I'm down and he's there to pick me back up from out of the shadows.

Good times.

Cheers

Geth Engineer (support spec) with a Geth Pulse Rifle is my love right now. Just ridiculous shots per second.

[Derek Hollan]

Builds?  Oh man, you folks are going to think I'm nuts.

I actually enjoy Carnage (max, visually it is so satisfying and still contributes to kills in Gold), Grenades specd for area (max), max on the specialist training, fitness for survivability and the rest in Adrenaline rush (I go through ammo fast enough as it is).

I like the tight accuracy of the phaeston.  (Yes, I like ARs.  One round is fun but many rounds just feels great).

For my engineers, I use my turrets/drones a lot and Tac Scan with my QME.

Cheers

I'd like to ask , and not in a condescending way, but do you guys get just as frustrated over ther many bugs as we do as players?

Nothing more frustrating to QA than bugs  (Especially the ones that can't be reproduced 100% of the time).

That's cause he has dumped all the agro on you in the 1st place.

I admit, this I laughed.

What can you tell us about the rumours that devs can actually play reapers? Is it true that some of you like to vent off some steam by grabbing unthankful people that just rage on at the forums?

Your proposal has merit. (I'm joking...no...really!)

Alas, we cannot play as reapers.  Not that it wouldn't be fun in an odd I-will-destroy-the-universe way .

Rumour squashed...or it it?

derek, is there any possibility of us getting engineers with multiple turrets/drones? will we get any new drones? ive always loved conjuration, necromancy, and the ability to increase my numbers in games. i want to have little army, and my one turret is lonely.

That would be fun.  However, as you can imagine it introduces a whole other variable to balance issues.  Not to mention how taxing a single drone, for example, is on hardware resources (it's pretty taxing).  Four engineers using a drone each takes huge amounts of resources (memory allocation) where we have limitations.  It then becomes exponential if we introduce more...and more...and more.

What an awesome post!

Which of you likes to play the Vorcha? Batarian? Drell?

I like playing my Vorcha soldier, regen (of course, I mean who wouldn't?), Carnage, and the melee is fun.  Of course, I feel like I need to stop slathering drool all over my keyboard with those sounds he makes

Corey Gaspur loves his Batarian Sentinel and is constantly asking for buffs on it (not that Eric will budge).

I haven't witnessed cannibals acting suspiciously, yet (by not going for their downed buddies). Banshees seem to be coded entities as well. Not sure about Phantoms...

Cannibals...delicious, delicious cannibals

Those guys creep me out and keep me awake most nights

And who among you loves to play with Valiant X?

Who wouldn't?

Honestly though, I only have a Valiant IV. (Yes, I've been fortunate).

There have been test accounts made with those levels of N7 weapons but I can honestly say I have not used one.

Someone's been having WAY too much fun

I want to know if any of the devs play with Krysae and Infiltrator

I know Chris Schanche has tried it and Preston likes playing his GI (though no Krysae).

You know he's just using you as self propelled "Ooo! Shiney!"  The enemy can't resist "Ooo! Shiney!"

You know, Bryan IS my supervisor.  Should I be worried?

Does anyone love the Krogan Sentinel in the dev team D:?
Also happy to see this much devs talking to people this is the first time I've seen this. EVER. In any game!

I played my Krogan Sentinel during the weekend operation.  I love ragdolling phantoms, don't you?

Love playing Krogans.

And a quick question about DLC concepts: do you guys have already planned stuff for DLC or you really "scan" the forums and do what people want the most?

When it comes to DLC we do look to see what fans like and/or would have issues with.

I honestly think they love to play the game. It shows.

People who figure out to make Krogan and Vorcha with their captions are surely having fun designing them and seeing them adopted by players.

Wow!  Krogan adoption.  My wife and I have three kids already.  A Krogan would be a handful...for the entire block.

Are you guys planning, or have ready, any any new female characters for us to play?

Loaded question here.  Unfortunately, I must refrain from answering at this time.  Any answer for or against would start a flood of rumours we aren't prepared to address.  Sorry.

Keep your hopes up though

Where's your manifest?

I can never seem to keep ops survival packs or warp ammo, though. Do you all use your consumables? Or are you rocket hoarders?

I'm conservative but not to the point of hoarding.  A well placed rocket for the first target in an elimination objective (assuming it's wave 10) gives the team that much more time to get the others.

I seem to go through Shield Boosts like they're candy...and I have a sweet tooth.

I have to ask what difficulty you (Teh BWers) are playing on with these builds?

Any...

Not sure what I can add to that.  Oh, yes...even Gold.

so for Batarians  blade armor do you use   meele damge return to attacker.  and do you laugh when that husk or phantom dies to it? 

ok well since you may see this,...  a Yahg would be cool to play with. 

Don't think I didn't notice what you tried to do there

And, yes...Husks and phantoms on Batarian blade armour...Funny stuff.  It's like a "just try to hit me" surprise!
