    Enemies are stronger and there are more of them and the higher level units come out quicker

    amount of experience and money received also goes up


    I believe that's it

    enemies have more health, damage, amd speed

    Special enemies like phantoms spawn more often

    You also get tons more money

  • KochikensKochikens Registered User regular
    Oh, hurm. Also, how do you upgrade your guns??? just through the unlock store stuff??

  • GoatmonGoatmon Companion of Kess Registered User regular
    Yeah, every time you get a weapon or mod you already own, it goes up a level.

    Weapons can go up to 10, mods to 5.

    Yea as you buy packs if you get the same gun it'll be gun name II (up to X) and I think the weapon attachments go up to V

    Yeah well, you generally spout a lot of really awful opinions about the game so I don't really filter the things you say anymore.

    So its totally random chance and I could unlock a gun up to X that I hate but only have I in a gun I love?
    Hurm
    welp
    good thing Im enjoying this

  • GoatmonGoatmon Companion of Kess Registered User regular
    It's really easy to level up the starting guns, though. Just buy a shitload of recruit packs. Uncommon stuff is easy, as well, just takes a bit longer since veteran packs cost 4x as much.

    Rare weapons, well, lord only knows.

    wow, just lost a silver run because 3 different people got insta-stabbed by phantoms the moment they were revived/medi-gelled

    there should at least be some sort of protection from that stuff when you're reviving

    Chapter 14 of the Marauder Shields comic is out:

    I can't believe how high quality this comic is. The person doing them has to be a professional.

    I am certain he is using the in-game engine to set up the images, then slaps on some layers to make it look drawn.

    It just seems way too close to the original to be drawn manually.

    There's no way this page or this one are from the in game engine alone. I dunno, maybe this guy uses the in game engine for reference/posing, but the quality here suggests to me that he draws most of it himself.

    Edit: Maybe it's a mix of both. I don't think he just pulls assets from the game and fliters them, but maybe he does that to at least get his starting page. Still better than any of the official comics, though.

    Cambiata on

    Spacebarring through every scene that features kai leng improves the game significantly.

    man do i dislike kai leng

    when he shows up it feels like some terrible hideo kojima character somehow broke into my mass effect game

    dmsigsmallek3.jpg
  • KanaKana Registered User regular
    Kai Leng would've been such a better fight if you got halfway into it and

    ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

    i was also hoping that would have happened
    with the illusive man at the end of the game

    particularly since it was mentioned that harbinger was around

    in fact it seems weird to me that they went out of their way to mention harbinger specifically and then nothing ever comes of it

    Kai Leng being in the story (not the man himself) was redeemed by

    endgame
    Shepard reducing him to a blustering mess when it is pointed out that all he ever does is run.

    And then dying to the tune of an excellent one-liner.
