Always good to read positive input on this awesome game. Seems a lot of people want to only see the negative, but I really enjoy it. Finished it on Normal first and now I'm replaying on Insanity. The challenge on Insanity makes the combat even more fun and engaging.

Um are you in windowed mode? No, full screen of course. It's also the game cursor, not the windows cursor. I have read a few comments from people in other forums that reported the same, so I actually figured this was a general bug. Curious that the posters here didn't encounter it. Yeah I figured it was a general bug as well. Happens to me quite often. Weird that it happens often with some people, but not at all with others.

As much as I love ME:A, it's definitely not without flaws. And travel cutscenes are a huge annoyance imo.
Hopefully they patch it at some point and make them skipable.

I swear, some people just complain for the sake of complaining. You don't even have to have a ton of conversations with the crew.
If you don't want to hear what they have to say...don't talk to them...simple as that.

...Like people are genuinely getting lost in how many menus there are in this game, which shows that the general public is borderline illiterate... This^ made me laugh because I totally agree with you. I often feel like people complain because it's cool to hate on ME:A and they're just looking for things to complain about. I had no issues with the menus. It played out like most things I do for the first time...initially it was unfamiliar, then I got used to it.

Oh, man. You got me good, zipzap2000 . I saw the thread title and I was all ready to rage on some asshat troll that was starting some petition or class action lawsuit against Bioware because they think the game is trash and not worth their $60. Then I saw you were the poster and calmed down. Your post is very much appreciated and, as always, hilarious. Have a Ryncol, on me. Lol, I had the same reaction. Sick and tired of everyone jumping on the "I hate Mass Effect Andromeda" bandwagon. I'm loving the game and wish people would take a break from all their hate and give the game an honest chance. It's really fun and entertaining if you go into it with optimism instead of negative preconceived ideas that it will suck (self-fulfilling prophecy). The people talking negative about the game remind me of angry people at a comedy show...I hate those types...why on earth would you go to a comedy club with the intention of mean-mugging everyone and not laughing? Poor miserable, angry souls. Your post made me smile though zipzap2000.

They know that hating on ME:A will get them views and likes so they do what they do best...follow trends. I'll be glad when all this ME:A hate is over too though. I'm loving the game personally. Bad press and the focus on inconsequential things deters many people from even trying this great game. Bioware made another masterpiece as far as I'm concerned. But being good, often makes you a bigger target for jealous people unfortunately. You're not doing yourself, or anyone else that enjoys the game, any favors by calling Andromeda a masterpiece... At least acknowledge where it fucks up so you get something better next time. That's not a bad thing, even if you love the game. Like many things, "fun" is subjective. ME:A is a masterpiece in my opinion. It's huge, the story is nice, I like the characters, I like the multiplayer/gameplay, and I'm a sci-fi fan in general. Is it perfect? No. But have I enjoyed 85+ hours playing it so far? Hell yeah! Not many games can keep my attention that long, but Mass Effect Andromeda does. It's a masterpiece in my book. You're welcome to disagree, but frankly, I'm tired of people trying to convince others to see things their way. Let people try it themselves and make their own opinions. The bad press unfortunately often becomes self-fulfilling prophecy: people go into it thinking it's going to be bad, and nitpick every flaw, failing to see all the positives. It's like having a girlfriend/boyfriend who only has something to say when you screw up, seemingly disregarding all the ways you're an awesome partner.

The bigger question is why people's standards are so low they end up liking a game this unpolished. My standards in life aren't to dissect everything i play nor replaying the same content over and over until i've collected enough bugs to make a video with. My standards aren't to deny others the pleasure and the dignity to like a product i hate. I do hate cheese for the most part... i'll bug everybody in the world till they stop eating cheese! My standards isn't related to "polish" nor in my video games nor in cars. I want to sit in front of my screen smiling and calling my mates over saying: "Come here, look at that. So pretty. Who needs to go in space anymore " My stardards include smiling at my pals and enjoying my life playing games. Very not to lecture others. Obviously my standards are subpar and i'm sorry about that.

Yet another tuber who jumped on the animation / facial expression bandwagon. When this horse becomes a bloody pile of pulp he will hope on the next one. Bandwagon hoping is the new trend for the vast majority of youtubers these days. Desperately fishing for likes and subs. They know that hating on ME:A will get them views and likes so they do what they do best...follow trends. I'll be glad when all this ME:A hate is over too though. I'm loving the game personally. Bad press and the focus on inconsequential things deters many people from even trying this great game. Bioware made another masterpiece as far as I'm concerned.

...Not to mention the fact that the games only sin in terms of writing is how it's tonally different from the trilogy on purpose. It is more firefly, less Babylon 5 this time around. You hit the nail on the head here^. For some reason, it's hard for many people to grasp the fact that ME:A has a lighter tone than the trilogy by design. Ryder is not the grizzled seasoned veteran that Shepard was. The sooner people realize that, the sooner they'll realize the writing is fine for the tone it's trying to convey.

That's usually how New Game Plus works. Ideally, you play Normal or Hardcore the first playthrough, the up it to Insanity for New Game Plus.

Tweet from bioware We're aware of connectivity issues with Mass Effect: Andromeda MP & APEX HQ. We are working on a fix & apologize for the inconvenience. Ah thanks. Since Bioware doesn't seem to have official forums, I didn't know where to get up-to-date info from them. Guess I'll have to keep an eye on their tweets.

I agree that^ would have been nice. I also hate that we can't color armor (or maybe I haven't unlocked that yet?). I like the N7 chest piece for my Sentinel, but I use Angaran arms, legs, and helmet for the tech bonuses. My sentinel looks color blind. it's part of your wardrobe on the tempest. Wow I can't believe I overlooked that tab all these times. I feel like a poopyhead. Now I can kick ass fashionably. Thanks for the info!

Do you have to kill enemy dogs on every planet? In Mass Effect, I got used to killing enemies that supposedly had similar intelligence to the humans and friends fighting them. Killing dogs is weird. Your question is the reason this game has such mixed reviews: you played a little bit then jumped to premature conclusions. I can't place all the blame on people like you though, Bioware could have done more to make the start of the game more interesting. But to answer your question: you'll be fighting all kinds of different enemies...you just have to play the game and let it open up to you.

I was hoping when they said crafting will be different from DAI, I was expecting that we would be able to place the stats we wanted into the armours we want at the least. I agree that^ would have been nice. I also hate that we can't color armor (or maybe I haven't unlocked that yet?). I like the N7 chest piece for my Sentinel, but I use Angaran arms, legs, and helmet for the tech bonuses. My sentinel looks color blind.

You did good! Ignore the rude comments. Considering this long faced weirdo is what I started with, I'd have to agree lol. I prefer this "long faced weirdo". She's actually my Sara minus the neck tats and with her hair loose. I didn't change her face at all. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Wait til Elaaden It didn't annoy me until Elaaden lol. Every freaking time I go into or out of a shadow, not only does SAM say something, but Ryder often makes a comment about the heat too. Bioware really needs to add a 20-30 second counter, if not longer, in between the environment comments.

I just wish Suvi was bi, so my male Ryder could have a hottie. All I get to choose from are aliens, other dudes, and "mom". :/ I had to like this because of the "mom" thing. well play sir. Yeah she's not bad looking, but I can't call her a milf because there's just something way too wholesome about her. Only one that interested me was Suvi. Peebee is okay but she has that weird Ninja Turtle face paint...

The game has no level cap so you'll probably end up with unspent points with Ryder too if you play long enough.
