@tictac:

You're forgetting that he said only one power was recycled.

Just pointing out you are complaining about the hypothetical situation that probably doesn't concern you (judging by your N7HQ you're not a soloist type) involving a character you don't know enough about to make a valid statement.

Well, my N7HQ means nothing, i don't play on Xbox anymore, i'm on PC now and wait until my manifest is maxed to solo platinum.

I almost only play solos on this game, so yes, i think that concerns me.

@thefool:

There's nothing to imply sarcasm unless you inferred it yourself. And why? It's his favorite kit.

Did you read his post?  The person said, "Eric Please tell me his pre existing power is Geth Turret" to which he responded, "Very well, yes, it's the turret."

It does not take a great deal of inference to discern that the response is simply meant to give the person what they asked for.  They did not ask for an official confirmation, or anything like that.  They asked for Eric to say something, and he did.  It is a simply word game.  We shall see if he was indeed being serious though once the DLC is released.  Beyond this point, I cannot say that I have any reason to believe sarcasm, so if this is not convincing enough, I am sorry, but I cannot help you any further.

I didn't ask for you to tell me that, so no I don't, but do you see what I am saying?  I would like to, at the very least, know if I made my point clear.

That was perfectly clear, but i disagree, so..

especially this :

They did not ask for an official confirmation, or anything like that.  They asked for Eric to say something, and he did.

Devs don't say things like that if it's not true. As far as i can tell. But i'm here since day one and i've never seen any dev "lying for the lulz".

Look near the bottom of the page.  social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/343/index/15964596/7

I really ought to figure out how to make it go to the part of the page that I want, shouldn't I?

Anyhow, this is either a joke (much less to suggest that than the other quote) or a second confirmed power.

And i also believe the dev for that.

Imho :

-geth turret
-pulse canon
-unknown (not defense matrix)


That would fit with the statement "one previous geth power and 2 brand new powers". Do you say this was a dev joke too ?

edit : anyway, both of us might be wrong.

@thefool:

Did I put Kahlua in my coffee that morning?
Probably.

Was there more Kahlua than coffee?
Also yes.

Was I colored by my own biases and logic?
You bet your ****** I was.

Juggernaut has a power recycled from a previous geth. It has a shield restoring power. If nothing else Geth Turret has that and the power is only one one character. And Primes spam their turrets like crazy. It makes the most sense.

I must have misunderstood you somewhere along the thread, I thought that you had said that you did not believe that the pulse cannon was going to be one of the power.  Very well.  You choose to take it at face value and I do not.  To each his own.

And to Chi Mangetsu, I appologize, but I do not understand your point.  Well the first six lines of it anyways.  The last part makes sense.

adrenaline mod.

Now thats someone who is using their heads and not just b-ing and c-ing. If the Jug, ( I like that term) has ~ 5000 *base* shields (which i doubt for following reasons) that would mean that no average mook would be able to drop him. Krogans max out at 3650 with cyclonic IV and Shield booster gear. Adding those to a 5k Shield would mean your talking 10K + shields. lol not happening.

Adrenaline mod would most likely counteract w/e movement speed issues the jug has. I'm actually more interested if the "new powers" it has actually work or will "work as intended." Fudge his survivablity, I survived plenty gold runs with level 1 characters in pug matches. Slow movement will just be another form of strength cloaked as weakness once I get my hands on it.

10k shields yet with no manuverability still not viable on gold/plat with the appox 1k damage bosses do

Hmm well, on topic, wait until monday's stream, we'll know what juggernaut really gets. I'm not even sure i want to be right. Geth turret + pulse canon don't look very fun.

Put alcohol in my coffee as I was reading through the posts Thursday and the sarcasm flew over my head. Didn't even question it because of how well it fit. I also made a small nod to the series Archer.

You know something that I am a bit surprised we've never seen? Is a kit with an interminably slow roll like when you wear heavy armor in Dark Souls.

The "shoulder dislocator"?
Oh man, I'd pay money to see a Juggernaut drop-check a Phantom.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail.  Once very big, now just a trivia reference.  One of my favorite all time movies.

The back and forth of the BSN threads sometimes makes me think of the back and forth dialog in the movie.

Your written skills are excellent, don't know what your English verbal skills are ... which could effect the utility of the following.

You have to watch the movie over and over to catch all the pieces, at least that was true for me.  I'm American, not British, so some of it is the difference in dialect/accent, but a lot of it is that there is so much going on in the movie, I couldn't catch all the humor with just one sit through.

As with all humor, funny is in the eye of the beholder, for me, it is one of the best comedies ever.  That and Young Frankenstein are my top two.  Absurdist, double entendre, word play, breaking the fourth wall, silly sly sarcasm, poking fun at the status quo.

To those thinking that Eric Fagnan's reply to the question about the new powers sounds like sarcasm, I dare people to pick a post, ANY post in the past where he replied to a serious, well worded question pertaining to DLC content with sarcasm. Or any of the other devs for that matter.

If this was World of Tanks with SerB's penchant for trolling player questions then I can believe it maybe. But last I checked, this was Mass Effect 3, not World of Tanks.

Just wait one more day.  If my explanations were not good enough for you, then just wait.  Of course it would be nice if your rebuttal to my point consisted of more than "No, you're wrong".  This is an argument of convience.  I for one am certainly not going to dredge through the past dev posts, and simply because I cannot think of one off of the top of my head, your argument is technically still not disproven. 

In other words please address my actual point.

A carefully worded response is probably a better way to phrase it than "sarcasm", I guess that you are right there, but it still seems fishy to me.
