I have never gotten a warning for discussing Borderlands before... so they don't care that much.

They have more important things to worry about.

Like fixing their game.

Technically it is against forum policy to talk about things unrelated to the multiplayer of this game.

So no, it actually isn't okay for them to express their thoughts.


A borderlands release and the subsequent drop in player base is directly related to ME3MP.


The issue is. Talking about it isn't.

So the issue I'm referring to is not related.


The issue is related but talking about it isn't kosher because it isn't related? :blink:

borderlands 2? Bleh no interest, im buying a cheapo joystick so I can play mechwarrior online in a nostalgic way. (its still in beta) but its F2P/P4Perks allowing me to continue to throw money at bioware while having other games on the side.

For me the MWO the new xcom game and xenonauts will problably get me of my fix, then theres the mechwarior4 online game i always go back to for more then a decade.

This thread is pointless, people are going to talk about other games on these forums. It doesnt matter what you do to get your point across. Their still going to talk about other games!

Exactly.

I can covertly put in some double entendres to mean more than one thing and still talk about Borderlands 2 indirectly every single time I post if I wanted to.

I don't even know why Diablo 3 didn't grab me. I enjoyed it...and then I was done.

By done do you mean hit inferno?

Also, I find it slightly ironic that for all the complaining about the RNG loot in this game, that the two games with the most mentions around here have been RNG lootfests.

We realize what's coming out tomorrow, we realize that this game has issues and that Bioware is looking to fix or patch the game. What's really starting to become annoying especially to an avid fan is the amount of posts or replies to OH I'M GOING TO PLAY ANOTHER GAME THAT COMES OUT TOMORROW. Just go, don't start advertising it. We appreciate what you've done for Me3... but what we don't appreciate is the fact feel the need to bash bioware and go to advertise that you're going to another game.
Truth be told i'll still be playing this, i'm a loyal fan to Bioware and Mass Effect and Dragon Age... They've had some hiccups yes, they've done some good with this and some bad.
This was their first forray into this type of game, and i'll say and i'm sure all of you will agree it was a commendable effort into turning Mass effect into a legit Multiplayer.


I don't think most people are bashing Bioware by any means. I know i'll be playing alot more BL2 then ME3 come tomorrow but i still love ME3 MP, I think they did a great job. But its only fun with friends. When you conqurered eveyrthign, basically maxed out eveyrthing, and nothing new for 2 months you get a little bored. I think most people are at that leevl and are tyrign to keep it fun by doing tournements, funny layouts and such. handicapping ourselves for more of a challenge and such.

Either way i'm not quitting ME3 cause BL2 is coming out but it will take a backseat. Thats just life new things come out and old ones get moved aside. Its not a knock on BW. the ME3 MP is way better then i ever imagined it would be and i giive alot of credit to BW for that

In Borderlands though gun crates give you guns, and ammo crates give you ammo.

Not one crate giving you ammo... and another crate giving you ammo... and another crate giving you ammo...

The fact that Borderlands 2 is coming out tomorrow will attract attention away from Mass Effect 3's multiplayer, which is indeed directly related to the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer.

Talking about how exciting Borderlands 2 will be, on the other hand, has absolutely nothing to do with the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer experience, and is thus inappropriate for this particular forum.

tl;dr: talk about it someplace else.

I got to act 3 inferno with a monk and demon hunter. The RNG is certainly a harsh mistress in that game, but WoW got that out of my system (WHERE ARE MY PANTS RAGNAROS, WHERE ARE MY PANTS?!?). I think I just didn't end up being too grabbed by the skills/spells in that game.

They give you guns, but they still give you RNG guns. In Borderlands 1 for me it went

Gun crate gives me amazing shotgun. Slightly useful since I can at least give it to my gf.

Gun crate gives me amazing rocket launcher. Vendor it because I don't use them

Get SMG off boss/vending machine

Vendor everything else I get for the next 2 hours because nothing can come close to competing with my new SMG.

When I stopped playing I hadn't replaced my SMG in a ridiculously long time since nothing had the sheer damage output of my current SMG. Everything was vendor trash until I eventually maxed out money, then I just ignored it.

Reach between your legs, yank that string and then insert a fresh plug. Also might want to eat a couple Midol.

That's not the point of Borderlands though... It isn't about what is the best gun in each category, it is about what effects they have.

The point is collecting as many Orange guns as possible and have all the awesome effects that they have.
(Because most of them are totally overpowered anyways...)
Then you can have fun no matter what gun you use because the bullets fire in zig zags, spray acid, or shoot horizontally, or even fire in the shape of a hammer.

It took me like a year to do it but I have one of every single orange gun in the game.

Was the SMG by any chance a Combustion Hellfire? They are one of the most common and yet overpowered SMGs in the game.

I'd don't expect BW to pump out dlc or patches as fast as we the players demand it, I do expect reasonable communication about when those updates will happen, you have a ball park eta. Talk to your bosses at EA and tell them you need to communicate that ETA with players in order to keep them interested in (and not pissed off at) the game despite delays. Its in EAs and BW's best interest to communicate things like ETAs to keep a good relationship with the customer, otherwise you just appear apathetic. If BW want to be apathetic I will take my time and money elsewhere

The gun effects I've seen so far have just struck me as gimmicky. I use an accurate and fast firing smg with a nice scope and send eleventy billion bullets into everything's skull in 0.63 seconds...it only annoys me when the bullets twirl.

I do like the game though. It's like Diablo 1 in space, or I dunno, any other hack and slash without much thinking. But it's a very different game than ME3 MP for me.

That's one thing i'll give them... they definetely gave us something to talk about... something to play since March to today. They gave us an MP that was addictive and fun mostly and we kept coming back for more everytime.
I've met some good people on ME3... some that i'll play with again on other games, there aren't a lot of times that happens.

Yes, all games multi-player components are specific to one system as far as I know.
