Are you going to do a Ringo Starr, and answer every single question posed on this thread that you can? :P

I know you're probably tired of answering husk challenge questions ad nauseum, but I just wanted to run this past your eyes as I haven't seen this idea thrown out there yet. I'm not sure if this would fall victim to the same problem as lowering the values per challenge, but it couldn't hurt to ask. Feel free to ignore if it's the same issue.

I know you've stated that you can't lower the points per challenge, but would it be possible to completely remove rank 2 and 3 (or just 3) from the husk challenge and lower the gold challenge requirement accordingly? That would leave one 150k challenge, which would still take some time on gold/silver but is more realistic. My hope is that with Husk Points 2 and 3 no longer in existence, you could tweak it so the value of Husk Points 1 would reset when the gold challenge is completed as if it was the "final tier" (like rank 3 is now). 150k is definitely a more attainable goal for Gold+ players that would fit in line with the rest of the challenges timeline-wise.


As for a non-technical question.. more satisfying sabotage kill: turning a turret on its own engineer in the process of being deployed, or hacking a Geth Bomber to bombard a group of Dragoons?

Hi Bryan

Do you ever feel like you're sort of missing out on the Mass Effect experience as a result of having worked/working on it? Like, you don't get to experience it fully because you're aware of and involved with the process of making it happen.

If not, have any of the other devs said anything to that effect?

I started at BioWare in August 2010 as a contract employee and was hired as a full time Senior Quality Assurance Tester a year later.


Since you are QA, I'm curious if you've read any of the "tales" over at The Trenches.  From reading those, it sounds like working for a game developer, at least on the QA end, is one of the most underappreciated, painful, frustrating and explotitive jobs in the world.  Also, it seems like most game companies (development and publishing side) are run by psychopaths.

I realize that those stories mainly only draw upon the bad, and people are way more apt to complain then to compliment (e.g. BSN...), but I'm still curoius on your take on the industry, as presented above.

Edit: I guess a little more precisely, are the horror stories related in those tales rare? uncommon? common?  I'd assume rare, but eh, you never know.

Thanks!

Oh this question is more important to me.

What are some nicknames you've given to some of the enemies.

I have a few for my more notorious targets, although I do not think my nicknames are....appropriate.

Also, do you like to dance with Brutes?


Collector Captain/Trooper gets the name slice and dice
Geth Prime I call big monster 
Maurder is Maurder Shields

I typically dont dance with Brutes, I will dance with Praetorians though

Hi Bryan....will the Typhoon see it's pre-nerf form once again since the devastator mode is now nerfed. The gun is just good on a few characters.

Two things.

First of all: What are your thoughts on the Krogan Soldier and melee in general? With the recent Brute buffs, I've been happy to realize that I can't simply one 'shot' them after de-activating fortification and being in a blood rage.

That is to say: I'm happy that they are harder to kill, they used to be like wet tissue paper before. So...yeah. Penny for your thoughts? Like melee, hate melee, think it needs some tweaks?

Also: Does Derek ever pop in randomly when you're enjoying a treat?

EDIT: Are you going to dress up as Grunt tomorrow? :lol:


I like melee, Krogan Soldier was "my kit" before launch then in the demo I fell in love with the Drell

I dont know what you mean

and no I am not

What are your thoughts on Garrus Vakarian's amazing ability to rapid fire his widow sniper rifle? There's a scene in the Leviathan DLC where Garrus pops heads and takes names with about 5 fast widow shots. Can we expect this to come to multiplayer?


Garrus is the best of the best :P

Marksmen actually allowed for near rapid fire of sniper rifles at one point that was determined WAY too OP though so got axed long before ship. So I would so no.

Do you listen to music when you play, and if so, what do you listen to?

We won't judge you (we'll judge you).

MGS 4 was terrible. It was all about the action....
3 was about the stealth

Right then Bryan, seeing as one of your favorite games is final fantasy tactics... How on EARTH am I supposed to beat Belias after facing Weigarf one-on-one in chapter 3? The failures are driving me insane!

Has the MP aspect of Mass Effect far exceeded BioWare's initial expectations??


I can't comment on BioWare as a whole but myself, no. 

I dont know if you guys recall when MP was announced he talked about people staying in the offices to play into the wee hours of the morning. Want to guess who one of those people were?

I would like some clarification about the 100% tech burst increase options for both the Paladin and the Shadow. Specifically, do they work, and if not, can they be fixed?

thanks


Gameplay question, better off asking Chris Schanche
