Mass Effect 3: It's Out! SPOILER ALL ME3 DISCUSSION

nope
the hammerhead is fast enough that if you get shot to death, it's your fault for staying in range of the enemy, or for not killing the enemies quick enough
oh that thing. yeah, I'd like to use one of those.
I'm now picturing a Mass Effect spinoff children's cartoon where a bumbling Reaper keeps trying and failing to get rid of the lovable yet mischievous Vorcha infesting a Reaper base.
fucking forums
it was too floaty and too goddamn fragile
it had a nice gun and was fast but I would rather have slow and durable over fast and delicate
you people
if you died in the hammerhead it's entirely your fault for not getting out of range of the enemy or killing them quick enough
if you died in the mako it's because the vehicle fought you every step of the way
oh my god. the Grizzly was basically a Future Hummer
how
as someone who is self-proclaimed Bad At Games
can you defend the Hammerhead's durability
the mako can take more but the hammerhead can take enough to get shit done
the mako's designer should be shot, hung, drawn, quartered, the remains burned, the ashes scattered across the galaxy, given no proper funeral
we danced
i never died once in it
define "wet intentions"
so when that one fucking geth trooper kills you in two seconds from a million miles on casual you have to restart the whole thing
isn't that the basic definition of a tank
that thing has some good lines in overlord.
Also you didn't have to drive it much.
So that's good.
However, you could skate park an entire planet with the mako. I once did what appeared to be a 360 kick flip off a mountain. I died but it was awesome.
Mako was also easier to snipe with.
during combat it was fine
hell I was jump jetting over rockets and sniping dudes with the main cannon from a mile away
it gets caught on terrain, i've died more than once with it stuck upside down on an overhang on noveria
ah, memories
he flies to the other end of the map, gets back up, and starts charging you with his infinite ammo gun
see, this is the thing: if you can't learn to roll with the unwieldy controls it's going to come across as fighting you. you gotta let it run a little wild, find the points in uncontrolled bouncing to let off the gas or fire the boosters. it's quite fun if you get the hang of it.
let me be clear
I have always liked the mako, and I have never liked the hammerhead
I am what some would call "a contrarian prick" however
both vehicles are awful in combat
but the Hammerhead is more fun to drive
I didn't like the hammerhead much at all ever! I only played the DLC like a month and a half ago
Never minded the Mako much either outside of flying off of a mountain I was trying to climb
Mako you could get shit done, it just took a while. Hammerhead suffers catastrophic explosions from dirty looks and harsh language.
hate
the goddamned mako
i bet everyone who likes the mako is a vanguard
I hate them both.
But at least the hammerhead was in the game less.
But fuck you — no, fuck y'all, that's as blunt as it gets"
- Kendrick Lamar, "The Blacker the Berry"
because I swear I didn't even get hit but I lit on fire and exploded
CONTRARIAN
you take that back
I didn't like the hammerhead when it was new, and i don't really like the mako now. it's just if we have to compare them, the mako was a better combat truck then the hammerhead is a tank.
