Hi crashsuit , hopefully you're still looking around here and can repeat the contact with Brojo. I'm in a similar state as the earlier posters - assorted challenges are stuck (none of reinstalling, syncing account or changing banner helped). Profile: Derrilin Stuck challenges: Mass effect, Squad elite, Shotgun mastery, Assault rifle mastery, Pistol mastery, SMG mastery and Sniper rifle mastery. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Hi, I'm in the same position, so if crashsuit and BroJo could help to un-stuck my Combat Mastery challenge, it would cheer me up no end. Profile (PC): sylviaplathypus Unfortunately, BroJo left BioWare two months ago so at this point I don't know anyone left with the abilities of fixing these. :/

As in and out of the loop as I've have been, I cannot be relied upon to sniff out all the info by myself. But luckily... I suppose that was never the entire case for all the previous MP Resource Libraries. It was a team effort with just the one Curator organizing the links the wonderful masses recommended and making sure nothing too suspect was added to The Library. As long as folks can feed what they think are viable leads/tidbits my way in addition to my roving eye, I'm down for vetting them and adding the worthy to an organized compendium thread. Though having not done an Everything We Know About thread before, specifically, I would appreciate if Hrungr could toss an example link my way so I can try and replicate a similar organization. Thanks DR! Here's the link to the old Anthem thread: bsn.boards.net/thread/15757/anthemOf course, it doesn't have to be organized this way. My thread was a bit... haphazard. But I'd be happy to point out where DA4 information can be found whenever you need. Cool. I’ll take a closer look at this with my coffee tomorrow morning.

Heh, to be honest, either forgot or never realized that actually existed. I only did one Andromeda playthrough. Pulled it up and it appears to only be an archive of Andromeda data, though, right? Are there ME1-3 choices reflected in there at all? I'm having issues trying to get my world state to actually display anything discernible besides simply existing. Last I checked, I seem to remember there being ME1-3 choices there as well. Yeah, apparently so. Geez, guess I started Andromeda with whatever default world state they had then because I have no memory of this Archives thing and looking at the default world state, it's definitely not one I'd have ever selected as my canon. I feel so out of the loop now. When in the hell did this thing drop? I 1,000% missed the memo on that.

I wonder if they may eventually go the Dragon Age Keep route for Mass Effect? Basically a website where you link your EA account and then can manually create various world states, selecting each decision you want reflected, and can then import into your new Mass Effect Next game to help dictate what paths it may go based on past actions/your canon ME3 ending, etc. The Keep came about because of the awkwardness of DAI launching on PC, old consoles, and new consoles - 5 different platforms, when all was said and done. How to input world states if a PS3 user had upgraded to PS4? Or a PS3 user decided to switch to XBox One? Put it all in a website and let the current platform of use download what it needs. And in return, your current DAI playthrough added itself to the selected world state to create an ongoing virtually-housed world state save file. One for ME would resolve folks who played on the old consoles who may be upgrading to the new consoles by the time the next ME launches, and be a way to do so if they don't purchase the Legendary remaster (or, if someone does, perhaps that save file can import over as well, depending on what you select for Mass Effect Next to pull historical data from). Isn't that literally just the Mass Effect Archives? Heh, to be honest, either forgot or never realized that actually existed. I only did one Andromeda playthrough. Pulled it up and it appears to only be an archive of Andromeda data, though, right? Are there ME1-3 choices reflected in there at all?

I've been wondering this since the last game, and now wondering even more - about the Dread Wolf's eyes. Like, his 6 Pride Demon-esque eyes, specifically. I feel like past images of Pride Demons show eyes that are pretty symmetrically spaced and of similar size. But the artwork of DW isn't symmetrical at all; the top right eye is actually more towards the middle of the head and larger than the others; and the pupils are doing some funky things - four are solid dots, one is a solid dot with a circle around it, and the big boy is a blue dot with a fat white circle around it. Why is it styled like this? Is there any kind of symbolism or meaning under the surface that isn't obvious with current data/knowledge?

Absafraginlootly gervaise21 Thanks you. Does Audric read those emotions because he is dead himself? Or is it like me2 legion where the devs are creating ideas of expressive animations for npcs with less facial emotions? My opinion is it's done like the latter, like trying to give body language expressions to Legion when he has no face to do so, as you said.

Got to love when people celebrate fans of something getting screwed over because they didn’t like optional content.
I'm not celebrating anything because I don't care about the whatever this thing is called enough to want to buy it when/if it's ever comes out and I've never made it a big secret that I loathe the MP modes in ME3, MEA, and DAI and that it was a major reason why I didn't buy Anthem is that I think 98% of multiplayer modes and MP games in general suck and IMHO the BioWare games I've mentioned and many other games that more known for their single player modes would be better games without it.
Also what part of this so fucking hard to understand: I DON'T CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE'S OPINIONS AND WHAT THEY THINK MY OPINIONS! If you think I'm going to lose any sleep because some one on the internet disagrees with me about my personal opinions, I'm not sorry to tell you this: I don't lose any sleep over it.
We agree on some things Hanako and disagree on others but at the end of the day I'm the one who has look in the mirror and see my reflection and I would rather see some one who rather be hated for being brutally honest and blunt with my opinions than loved as a liar who is trying to get a long with people most would never give me the time of day if they met on the street. I've never hidden my opinions about anything from you or anyone else here. I was simply stating my HONEST OPINION about something not dancing naked in the street, spending anymore time than the time it took me to type out any post here about it.
And I'm sorry if attitude offends you and Dragon Racer but I am sick and tied of trying to give a flying fuck about people's opinions and when I did I got but nothing but sheer grief about it as I said above I don't care about other people's opinions anymore. If you or anyone else agrees with me or not on anything anymore, my opinions are from now on the only ones I give a damn about. When and if the world ever regains sanity again then maybe the nice agreeable version of cyberstrike will come back, but don't hold your breathe.
That’s a pretty long-winded response for someone who claims to not give a shit about others’ opinions. I simply found it a bit rude to literally quote my “This makes me unhappy’ post to express your own “Tee hee hee, fuck MP” opinion. Considering that I don’t recall having ever done anything personally to you to earn such ire. But it’s whatever. Only your opinion matters to you, so you do you.

Maaaaan. This latest rumor about MP not being included with the ME3 portion... Literally all hope I had left in my heart of an ME3MP revival on PlayStation just died. Which also just killed about 85% of my interest in this remaster. 2020, you continue to disappoint in every single way utterly possible...
For me it's the exact opposite this finally something about this I actually LOVE: No fucking ME3MP!
Before they patched it I hated that I forced to play to get the EMS high enough to get the breath scene in the destroy ending and I'm not a huge MP fan in general. No fucking microtransactions, the boring MP gameplay, dealing with annoying players, and so on that is actually a major UPGRADE!
Well, congratulations for you. I am overjoyed on your behalf. :|

I swear to God, if half the IPs I love become PC and XBox-exclusive (Elder Scrolls and Fallout), that may push me towards retiring from gaming. Never thought I'd consider that. Timed exclusive, I could deal with. But don't take away half my loves forever. Because I'm not buying another XBox again (the giant controllers suck and literally cramp my hands) and I'm tragically bad at mouse and keyboard, so...

Sooooo what kind of romances are you all expecting? Will we actually have marriages like in DAI? A dwarf. 3 games with no dwarven romance. It's so freaking odd. There are some of us who enjoy a grouchy, sarcastic git, you know? Precisely. I married one IRL, after all. (Well, he's not actually a dwarf, but he is about 3-4 inches shorter than me and has all the other above features, so... ) And honestly, as much as folks have pined for years over Varric and Scout Harding, this really has a feel of This Time, For Sure. C'mon, BioWare!

I just want the ability to play ME3MP again on newer hardware. I don't care if there are new shinies added or not. My PS3 is... long in the tooth. But I'd buy a remaster on PS4 or PS5 in a heartbeat, most especially if it connected to the same servers and you just continued where you left off. Like how ME3MP got a revive on XBox when that older games Vault (or whatever it's called) let the XBox One folks get into ME3MP.

I got pulled into this thread because my ESO guild was talking about a potential remaster coming and I scoffed because that's been an on again/off again rumor forever.
Have not read through all 50 pages here.
IF this remaster is supposedly actually happening, has there been any word on the MP side of ME3? Like, if there's a remaster on the PS4 or PS5, would the ME3MP servers get a kick of life again like it did for XBox when the older games Vault (or whatever it is) opened on XBox One and all the old 360 players who had upgraded consoles were able to ME3MP again?
God, I hope so. I would looooooove to ME3MP again, but my PS3 hardware is getting very long in the tooth. And I'd be fascinated to see if the old Collectors hard freeze issue that was never resolved for PS3 becomes a thing of the past on PS4 or 5.

Yeah, I was just about to chime in with "The Stolen Throne" book. Really good at giving background perspective on why Loghain feels the way he does about Orlais. Yet if you hadn't read the Stolen Throne, you would know none of this. When we were wandering around the camp at Ostagar at the beginning would have been the perfect opportunity for him to tell us something of his objections. When he is speaking out at the council of war with Cailan, he could have reminded him more forcefully why it would be a bad idea to let the Orlesian Chevaliers cross the border and they could even have Cailan offering some objection to his attitude along the lines of "we're officially at peace with them now" to give us some hint of where he stood on this but instead there was nothing. It was a similar situation with the Wicked Eyes, Wicked Hearts plotline in DAI. There was so much more to the background to the politics at play there if you had read Masked Empire. Whilst the major players might well have not divulged what occurred in the Crossroads, there was plenty in the lead up to that section that was pertinent. I only hope they don't do the same with DA4 and assume you have read all the comic books and Tevinter Nights so know in advance who people are or what they have done. However, I also hope they don't assume you haven't read them and so can treat you as an idiot about trusting someone that you know (and other people should know) are shifty. I definitely don’t disagree with the troubles of putting content in non-video game media without at least including a synopsis or allusion to it in-game, for sure. The average player ends up losing out on a some significant context otherwise.

Like I say, without the knowledge you get from Return to Ostagar, there is no context for what he does, just some gossip about him arguing with the King about the Queen. What I always felt was a pity is that I think his motivations and the actions of Cailan should have always been in the main game and I think that may have originally been the intention because of odd throw away lines that don't seem relevant until you get Return to Ostagar. To give an example: When my noble confronted Howe in Denerim, he justifies his action against my family by saying my father was a traitor. Total nonsense you might think but then I remembered how back in the origin story my father had just returned from Orlais. Then it occurred to me that such sensitive information as was contained in Cailan's correspondence with Celene would never have been entrusted to an ordinary courier or pigeon post but would need someone absolutely loyal to the King to act as go-between. Now my father's visit to Orlais took on a whole new perspective. The problem was, if you do Return to Ostagar after sparing Loghain he acts as though he knew nothing of the King's activities until you find the letters, which rather ruins the whole idea, but I suppose he could simply had his suspicions through various actions of the king and my father's frequent visits to Orlais without any proof. The timescales were a problem with all this as well but the writers have never been good about making dates and times work properly with one another and I assume either don't realise the problem or don't care they can't be reconciled with one another. Much of my understanding the reasons for Loghain feeling as he did about allowing the Orlesian army admission only came about after Origins, when I read the lore books and what had occurred in previous Blights. His fear that once we let them in, we wouldn't get them out again was fully justified. We should also remember that at that point the arch-demon had not yet surfaced so he only had Duncan's word that it was a true Blight. So put the two together and you realise why he was suspicious of their intentions. Had he known about Cailan's secret correspondence that would have only confirmed his suspicions. However, I do agree that he should not have sacrificed half the army and the Fereldan Grey Wardens for political reasons. Duncan though was also at fault. When the arch-demon hasn't made an appearance and you know a Grey Warden has to be the one to kill it, why risk all but two of your wardens on the front line? I'm sure that fact wasn't lost on a veteran commander like Loghain and that is why he thought Duncan and the Wardens were in league with Orlais. Plus there's the fact that Loghain's mother was raped in front of him by the Orlesian Chevaliers.
Also, pretty sure that the battle at Ostagar could NOT be won.
Yeah, I was just about to chime in with "The Stolen Throne" book. Really good at giving background perspective on why Loghain feels the way he does about Orlais. He basically grew up in an Orlais-occupied Fereldan, forced to watch the rape and murder of his mother by chevaliers, spent his teenage/young adult years fighting alongside Maric to try and liberate their country. I really can't fault him too hard on the Orlais paranoia.
