...for PC (To clarify, I've had the 360 version since the release date and am quite active in multiplayer there). Gamestop had it for 20 bucks and I wanted to see what the multiplayer was like. Worth it! I just now got the game installed and did a few bronze matches. Well, did like 30 seconds of a bronze match before dying. This is my FIRST cross-platform game that I've played on PC. Between working out new controls and starting over with an empty manifest, I have a lot of work to do. Still, it's exciting.

Install the DLC. They're free, and will allow you a lot more people to play with.

Welcome. If you are more technically inclined, you can check out some of the threads I have in my sig so that you can understand some of the intricacies.

This forum is to be honest a bit overran by Gold+ players, so you'll get a lot of advice for very high level play (and to be frank some are very good advice too). It might be very over the top for you though. General approach is for you to explore around in Bronze a bit more, buy up the Recruit or Veteran packs till you get a good set of Common/ Uncommon weapons, then see if you would want to go up in difficulty.

EDIT: Eh nevermind, I see you have XBL experience. Go forth and murderize.

Yeah, they're downloading now. Unfortunately I probably won't get much time to play until next weekend starts, but I'm still glad I got it.

EDIT: Thanks for the links, Lynx (haha), I'll be sure to study up.

The main screen freezing isn't a problem. Well, it sucks, but it's not something wrong. It's verifying your DLC while you do that. Because heaven forbid you might be using a pirated version of a free dlc. EA is EA.

The main screen freeze is a normal thing, it's the EA DRM working (yes, it works twice, one while connecting and the second while checking the DLC)

Well on the one hand that's somewhat silly, but I'm glad to hear it's not an issue on my end. Thanks for the info!

Amusing sidenote: When I was playing bronze earlier, I spent like 2 minutes trying to find out what button is melee until an assault trooper shot me in the face. Now I know it's F!

I keep this paged bookmarked it's got some essentials that will apply to both low and high level play (and help decipher what some people are talking about).

Nah see I kinda have this set up. The cotroller is like glued to my hands. And I play for like around 23 hours, while sitting in my comfortable chair/toilet. The Tv is time set to shut off for one hour. And of course there's a minifrigde within hands reach, although with the controller glued to my hands things can get quite difficult.  There's also a window, for moderate outside exposer, although there are mechanical curtains, too much sun = bad.  Any more questions?

Haha, I was thinking the exact same thing.  I think most people read the topic and went from there.

OT:  I've never played ME3 on console, but love it on the PC.  Welcome to the ranks!  Filling your manifest again is going to be torture.. but thats the fun right!

Wish I had a pc that could handle it. I've seen videos and looks 10x better than ps3. The sticks are too slow and aiming can be a challenge at times, especially with head shots.

Good choice. PC is so much better than console. Welcome to a world with no missile glitchers and highly sensitive controls where you can actually headshot things.

So... you are the race that apparentally gets off easy because the Starchild is to condescending and actually pities your overall terribad excuses for "skillz"?

Mr Bauer, ME3 was my first major game on Xbox after crossing over from decades of PC gaming. My best advice is get a really good multibutton mouse to map your most used keys to. Not sure if the ME3 port lets you do that per se, but this is general advice for PC games.

Also I always used the arrow keys for movement cause they had some space around them which made mapping controls to the surrounding keys easier. Personally I've always hated WASD. The Xbox controller took me months to master. I like the proportional movement on the Xbox, but the slow camera movement sucks. Really wish we could turn off auto aim too. 

Good luck! You're in for some fun trolling people with your low N7 ranking. :)

welcome!
I hope u have tons of fun ME3 multiplayer is a great game and it seems u entered at the right time with a massive DLC drop Tuesday. anyways, like everyone else says, start on bronze/silver and buy recruit packs and veteran packs to begin ur uncommon/common arsenal. probably start with power driven classes that don't rely on good weapons. above all have fun!

edit: just realized ur not really new! haha have fun anyways
