Seeing as there are less than 24 hrs. before Launch, and I'm too impatient for info-graphics, I'm starting this thread so we can all share impressions of our first matches.

Please share:

The Map: Orlesian Chateau, Tevinter, Elven Ruins.

The Enemy: Venatori, Red Templars, Demons.

The Wave/Area You Made It To: 1-5 or did you power through it all and defeat the Enemy Commander, you power gamer, you?

Your Character: which of our 12 stalwart agents did you run?

Your Party: Who else was in your group?

Highlight: Your greatest triumph or coolest experience during your dungeon delving?

Low point: What bit big time or didn't meet your expectations?

Anyone who played during EA Early Access feel free to post now.

And remember this is for posterity, so be honest.

epic thread title! lol.

 

I will edit this post to respond after I stop laughing and read the OP

I want my first time to be special with someone I trust and care about.  I'm going to save myself for that special moment.  ...Mainly because EU is going to have to wait a bit longer for their copy to come out.

I paid $70 for my first time. $10 more than the accepted price, but I got some special toys because of it.  Also have overnight/release day shipping.  I watched some videos and streams before too because I didn't want it to end extremely fast and be a waste.  I pride myself on being good at everything I do and like to put 100% in everything I do.  I've made some new friends and we will be trying it together.  I won't judge them on their skills as I know we can and will all get better.

 

I'm not selfish.  I would be open to helping some late first timers and offering my experience and equipment to them since they will be a few days late to the party and then we can have a fun time together and really get the best of the experience.

The Map: Elven Ruins

Enemy: Red Templars

Zone 5: Commanders Archers killed our team.

Character: Legionnaire

Party: Reaver, Elementalist, Assassin

Highpoint: Zone 3, spotting a red giant and planning an attack. Then another comes from the adjacent room as we start our attack.

Low Point: Same instance but the part where we retreated immediately.

Awesome thing was I was tanking one in a door way. Then he did that ground smash that creates a half circle. Suddenly I was separated from my party and they couldn't attack because of that wall and he was blocking the doorway! I was trapped! The reaver managed to smash part of it while I tried desperately to stay alive.

I got dropped into a match with 2 level 2 Legionaires having a pretty hard time. I was a level 1 Keeper, so I tried throwing up barriers as often as I could but we didn't make it past the 3rd area (out of 5) and that was Routine difficulty. Guys, I'm telling ya right now, if you go in expecting Mass Effect MP 2.0 you're in for a rude awakening.

Same with me. The first time can't be with just anyone. It needs to be the right foursome. I'll have to wait until the weekend when the chosen 3 are all ready and able to go all night.

[Geth Supremacy]

are there just 3 maps?  any suggestions from people on who and where to go our first time?

Made it to wave 4 failed objective and died.

Your Character: which of our 12 stalwart agents did you run? Wanted to run tank. Took keeper to balance party.

Your Party: Who else was in your group? 3 tanks.

Highlight: Your greatest triumph or coolest experience during your dungeon delving? Killed a red Templar before he could swing his sword at the tank.

Low point: What bit big time or didn't meet your expectations? All the treasure rooms were traps for is haha.

Honestly my first time surprised me. I always thought it would be me and one other. Not me with a group of three others.
Sorry for spelling or formatting errors. On phone during work haha

It's still somewhat fresh in my mind, as it was earlier this morning.

 

Map: Elven Ruins

Enemy: The Fade Demons

Top Wave: Zone 4-5. We were all lvl 1s and we squeaked by the zone 3 Pride Demon with most of our potions used up. Another one right before the last room mopped us up.

My Character: Keeper, using barrier more than chain lightning

My Party: 1 Archer, 1 Legionnaire, 1 Reaper (opened every hidden doorway!)

Highlight: Seeing a Pride Demon for our first time, lumbering into the narrow hallway. He hit our tank like a truck, and his aoe did a lot of damage to us in the small fighting space. Defeating it felt great!

Low Point: Seeing another Pride Demon paired with a Fear Demon and other small adds. Didn't even get the chance to be overwhelmed by the boss encounter. Level one friendly this ain't.

Early on, before gear/character power creep and increased familiarity with

me3 mp spawns, groups had much more trouble.  The ramp up for DAMP

may be a bit steeper, for now.

[Red Panda]

Ruins, templars, stage 5, Hall the archer

 

2 archers

1 keeper

1 bearded nightmare

I try not to think about my first time.
The details are a little hazy now but I remember it didn't last long.
I had no idea what I was doing and kept getting distracted by everything around me.
after it all fell apart I immediately left the lobby and didn't force the other 3 to give me another chance.
I used the little bit of experience I got to reflect and make myself better for next time.
I've consistently gotten better ever since, and now after one night if doing it nonstop I feel like I'm one of the more seasoned people out there!

Ready for more tonight!

I got so carried. I recall some friendly Russians very involved, although I couldn't quite make out what they were saying, but the whole treatment was very gentle and I was handheld through all the perils to the very end. I was left with some XP and loot and nice warm feeling.

[Zorinho20_CRO]

My first time was solo and ended very fast.

[stysiaq]

My first time? Got to the boss, and nearly killed it. I mean, the team. I didn't know what I was doing.

[Sir Jessku]

Got drowsy. Bored. Popped in me3 immediately.

[GrommitSmit]

The Map: Orlesian Chateau

The Enemy: Red Templars

The Wave/Area You Made It To: 3

Your Character: The Keeper

Your Party: Lego and 2 Archers

Highlight: Keeping the entire party alive (including the Inquisition Informant) while the party ran around like headless chickens (archers tried to tank Templar marksman and Horror while our illustrious Dwarf looted pots)

Low point: After completing the mission on Wave 2 and defeating all the other enemies, the key failed to drop and lobby host quit... Bummer! (of course on host migration we made it to wave 3 with another legionnaire and a second keeper, but both tanks charged ahead and left the us keepers exposed to Templar stalkers...)

[JerZey CJ]

I was on the Chateau and we made it to the final area. I was at max health and was then promptly downed by some over powered red templar unit who one shot me.

[HowlingSiren]

My first time? Lag, running in slow motion, revive not working. Fail. My live-in boyfriend was hosting and we have a 50MB connection... ME3, League of Legends, Divinity, Warframe, GW2, WoW etc. run without any issues.

 

Was really looking forward to another BioWare MP after the hundreds of hours I spent in ME3MP. I understand DAMP could not possibly be similar, but this seems very buggy. 

 

Definitely leaving this one to the side for now and will hope for a patch. Or something. 

[SleepWalker]

Tested a solo first to see what it was like, died immediately.

 

On my very first quick search I got a nice welcome to DAMP from the servers.

 

On the first full team game we got Elven Ruins and died on stage 4 by the hands of a red templar behemoth.
