Mass Effect 1&2 - RELEASING CONTROL OF THIS FORM
Posts
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
I will say, for the third game, I want to be able to help the Quarians retake their homeworld.
Well, I found the mineral list anyway:
To obtain all the upgrades as a non-engineer (Engineer passive ability lowers
required research material amounts), you will require:
EEZO: 42,500
Iridium: 215,000
Platinum: 275,000 (Includes 50,000 for Med Bay upgrade.)
Palladium: 195,000
It's relevant, and they listened to fan feedback on that. Mass Effect 2 only has a simple disc check for the store bought version and doesn't require online authentication.
They encourage you to register it online however, by putting out free DLC online via the "cerberus network". In your game box you'll have a code with which you can redeem this stuff. It includes an additional character (complete with loyalty quest), and another short quest where you visit the Normandy crash site and place a memorial.
There's also a couple of new items that just came out for free on the Cerberus network (armour and a weapon).
All in all, I think it's a pretty good system. You still get the full game otherwise, no install limits, but you get bonus stuff for registering.
That was good for a chuckle. I sort of wish I didn't let them die now.
I'll have to pick this up somepoint.
"I'll relinquish one bullet. Where do you want it?"
*fires up new game to go full cock-and-balls renegade*
the biggest thing to me is that in a game with direction this good, it would surprise me if they went out of their way to show us that moment without it meaning something. Could be that we won't find out what it meant until the next game, but still.

Don't you have to be online connected to the service every time you want to play a savegame that uses Cerberus content? The reason I didn't register shit as I experienced the same thing with Dragon Age.
Bit more restrictive than merely registering online.

Anybody can open excel spreadsheets for free. It's not limited to one program. Also, excel spreadsheets are most certainly in common use, pretty much anywhere that conducts any business of any type.

Like I said - not happening.
I am fully aware of what you can use to open an .xls file with, and you can even do it online without a program.
Thanks for the information though.
No way. I just did the Krogan sushi mission last night with my female character, and instead of the hilarious delivery of the male version, you get some sigh of resignation that's not really funny at all. Ditto with the "this store discriminates against the poor" line.
You might say that Mark Meer doesn't have as much emotional range, but there's a lot of personality to his voice nonetheless. He sounds so non-plussed by everything, and his delivery is always slightly awkward, but I feel it definitely gives the character a variety of recognizable and charming mannerisms, which simply aren't present in the female dialogue.
In contrast, I've been utterly bored by my renegade female Shepard so far. Jennifer Hale is a one of the best voice actresses out there, but I just don't find her interpretation of Shepard to be all that interesting.
Not to sidetrack too much, but I know I played Dragon Age on my laptop at my grandmother's house with Shale, and she doesn't have internet. I didn't have any problems.
No. You log in to download stuff but after that you have it offline as well.
Playing offline means you miss out on the neat little Cerberus News updates in the main menu but that's it.
That's how it works on xbox anyway, I assume PC is the same
:rotate:

I think on the whole Jennifer Hale has way better paragon dialogue.
Couldn't say, haven't been offline with it so far. Can anyone else comment on this?
And I think Xagarath was mainly worried about install limits and having to be online to be able to install and play the game at all, which was the issue with the DRM in the first one.
They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.
In ME2 yes. I thought the install limits and needing online to install are still there in ME1 aren't they? I don't remember it being patched out.

I solved the problem, it's in the OP.
If anyone wants to solve it further, host the HTML file directly, give me the link, I'll replace it.
I like Turian social structure, it sounds super ideal as far as real life goes. Individuals taking responsibility and shit.
It will.
SecuROM disc check. Doesn't phone home. You can register with the cerberus network for extra stuff.
it is the height of silly goosery to solicit hosting for an .html file eight times as large as the .xls because (supposedly) there are two people who there who in 2010 haven't figured out how to open a spreadsheet

Having an opinion is cool. I don't know what else to say.
Eh, I haven't done any background reading, I don't even read the codex. The information's there if you need it but they do a really good job of putting all the important information in the game itself.
