As always, ENFJ The Protagonist for me... 68% EXTRAVERTED / 32% INTROVERTED 70% INTUITIVE / 30% OBSERVANT 16% THINKING / 84% FEELING 78% JUDGING / 22% PROSPECTING 37% ASSERTIVE / 63% TURBULENT Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone. Your posture can shine your heart or transmit anxiety. Your breath can radiate love or muddy the room in depression. Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom. Your every act can open hearts and minds. - David Deida
Protagonists are natural-born leaders, full of passion and charisma. Forming around two percent of the population, they are oftentimes our politicians, our coaches and our teachers, reaching out and inspiring others to achieve and to do good in the world. With a natural confidence that begets influence, Protagonists take a great deal of pride and joy in guiding others to work together to improve themselves and their community.
Firm Believers in the People
People are drawn to strong personalities, and Protagonists radiate authenticity, concern and altruism, unafraid to stand up and speak when they feel something needs to be said. They find it natural and easy to communicate with others, especially in person, and their Intuitive (N) trait helps people with the Protagonist personality type to reach every mind, be it through facts and logic or raw emotion. Protagonists easily see people’s motivations and seemingly disconnected events, and are able to bring these ideas together and communicate them as a common goal with an eloquence that is nothing short of mesmerizing.
The interest Protagonists have in others is genuine, almost to a fault – when they believe in someone, they can become too involved in the other person’s problems, place too much trust in them. Luckily, this trust tends to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, as Protagonists’ altruism and authenticity inspire those they care about to become better themselves. But if they aren’t careful, they can overextend their optimism, sometimes pushing others further than they’re ready or willing to go.
Protagonists are vulnerable to another snare as well: they have a tremendous capacity for reflecting on and analyzing their own feelings, but if they get too caught up in another person’s plight, they can develop a sort of emotional hypochondria, seeing other people’s problems in themselves, trying to fix something in themselves that isn’t wrong. If they get to a point where they are held back by limitations someone else is experiencing, it can hinder Protagonists’ ability to see past the dilemma and be of any help at all. When this happens, it’s important for Protagonists to pull back and use that self-reflection to distinguish between what they really feel, and what is a separate issue that needs to be looked at from another perspective.
...The Struggle Ought Not to Deter Us From the Support of a Cause We Believe to Be Just
Protagonists are genuine, caring people who talk the talk and walk the walk, and nothing makes them happier than leading the charge, uniting and motivating their team with infectious enthusiasm.
People with the Protagonist personality type are passionate altruists, sometimes even to a fault, and they are unlikely to be afraid to take the slings and arrows while standing up for the people and ideas they believe in. It is no wonder that many famous Protagonists are cultural or political icons – this personality type wants to lead the way to a brighter future, whether it’s by leading a nation to prosperity, or leading their little league softball team to a hard-fought victory.
Strengths
Tolerant – Protagonists are true team players, and they recognize that that means listening to other peoples’ opinions, even when they contradict their own. They admit they don’t have all the answers, and are often receptive to dissent, so long as it remains constructive.
Reliable – The one thing that galls Protagonists the most is the idea of letting down a person or cause they believe in. If it’s possible, Protagonists can always be counted on to see it through.
Charismatic – Charm and popularity are qualities Protagonists have in spades. They instinctively know how to capture an audience, and pick up on mood and motivation in ways that allow them to communicate with reason, emotion, passion, restraint – whatever the situation calls for. Talented imitators, Protagonists are able to shift their tone and manner to reflect the needs of the audience, while still maintaining their own voice.
Altruistic – Uniting these qualities is Protagonists’ unyielding desire to do good in and for their communities, be it in their own home or the global stage. Warm and selfless, Protagonists genuinely believe that if they can just bring people together, they can do a world of good.
Natural Leaders – More than seeking authority themselves, Protagonists often end up in leadership roles at the request of others, cheered on by the many admirers of their strong personality and positive vision.
Weaknesses
Overly Idealistic – People with the Protagonist personality type can be caught off guard as they find that, through circumstance or nature, or simple misunderstanding, people fight against them and defy the principles they’ve adopted, however well-intentioned they may be. They are more likely to feel pity for this opposition than anger, and can earn a reputation of naivete.
Too Selfless – Protagonists can bury themselves in their hopeful promises, feeling others’ problems as their own and striving hard to meet their word. If they aren’t careful, they can spread themselves too thin, and be left unable to help anyone.
Too Sensitive – While receptive to criticism, seeing it as a tool for leading a better team, it’s easy for Protagonists to take it a little too much to heart. Their sensitivity to others means that Protagonists sometimes feel problems that aren’t their own and try to fix things they can’t fix, worrying if they are doing enough.
Fluctuating Self-Esteem – Protagonists define their self-esteem by whether they are able to live up to their ideals, and sometimes ask for criticism more out of insecurity than out of confidence, always wondering what they could do better. If they fail to meet a goal or to help someone they said they’d help, their self-confidence will undoubtedly plummet.
Struggle to Make Tough Decisions – If caught between a rock and a hard place, Protagonists can be stricken with paralysis, imagining all the consequences of their actions, especially if those consequences are humanitarian.

So no armour bonus and gear? WHY Probably because Prestige Bonuses. I guess that makes Prestige Bonuses even less OP since there's no gear now. Curious about the Cryo Ammo next to the Rail Amp. That would seem to indicate that Ammos apply for the duration of the match. I was certain they were consumable items in SP, so either that's wrong, or they just made it work differently in MP. I'm hoping they stay active for the duration of the match, because there are quite a lot of kits who can't self-detonate otherwise. But it's on the Consumables Page. So confusing! They function same as they did in ME3MP. Probably because Prestige Bonuses. I guess that makes Prestige Bonuses even less OP since there's no gear now.

I'm hoping they stay active for the duration of the match, because there are quite a lot of kits who can't self-detonate otherwise. I'm bitterly disappointed to see the return of cryo ammo, but I'm not at all surprised. I'm almost certain that it won't offer a damage bonus, again. I suppose I can get over the lack of an armour bonus considering the existence of the prestige bonuses...but still...the armour bonuses were a significant part of what made me3mp good. I think ammo bonuses will work the same way here as they did in me3mp - slap it on and it'll last the whole mission, just one mission. Surely they will stay active for the entire duration of a match, otherwise I will cry very hard. Also, I must say that character looks pretty badass! Those legs look a bit turian to me but im not sure...That is definitely a Turian. The legs give him away, as does the extended/pointy chest armor for his carapace and the shape of the full-face helmet (looks just like Ghost/Havoc).

Wait wait wait. Am I the youngest in here ? I am 21 years old and you all look like older than me Turning 32 next month. I'm still totally confused because my mind feels 16. And I'm still baffled that I graduated college 10 years ago, been married for 10 years, and been at my current place of employment for 10 years. That's an entire decade and it's honestly felt like maybe 2-3 years of my life. Essentially, what I have found so far is that nobody actually REALLY gets older mentally from whatever emotional age their mind has settled upon, your body just starts getting grumpier and grumpier. So, sorry, kid, it doesn't improve from here. It just gets weirder. And crankier. And all that youthful drama simply converts into more annoying adult drama. Because being an adult is a lie. We're all simply grown children who, for some, get really good at faking having a grasp on things.

I made an account a week ago but never introduced myself. I'm a Drell and I drink beer when I play Mass Effect and also play Mass Effect when I drink beer. Looking forward to playing/drinking drinking/playing with some of you! Excellent! I'm known as the Drunk Turian Sentinel for similar reasons. Have fun, and always remember... drink between waves!

It's not a BioWare multiplayer forum without a Resource Library thread, so welcome to the Mass Effect: Andromeda edition. I'm setting it up just like the ME3MP one was, but feel free to make category suggestions if you feel one is missing. This will obviously be pretty bare bones until the real knowledge keepers start making threads to help the rest of us in our struggle to "git gud".
As before, I'll be doing my best to keep an eye out for useful threads to add, but between my day job and being a moderator, having your eyes to help me keep the Library updated will be paramount. You can alert me to threads worthy of addition either by replying to this thread and tagging me (so I get an instant notification that way, which is done by typing the @ symbol followed by "dragonracer", but without the quotation marks and no spaces anywhere) or sending me a PM.
[See OP for information]

And as a general request from me -
Please note that this thread is for actual, serious MP feedback, discussion of what's good/not good about general gameplay/kits/weapons/powers/challenges/objectives/maps, and requests for what you'd like to see in the future in MEAMP. Not for generic shenanigans like "biower pls buff asari ass" or "biower why u no include gigavorcha???" and similar posts.
As such, I expect you guys to PLEASE be serious in this one (set of two) thread and also not to attack each other or be generally hostile to BioWare - particularly since I intend to point a few devs in this direction so that they can see community feedback that is not limited to social media and/or 140-character limits. But if people are being complete and utter douchebags about them here, then I suspect any good and useful feedback would fall on deaf ears.
Let's not be that way. Or if you really feel the need for "MP sucks" to get out of your system, make a different thread for it. Basically, "take it outside".

I occasionally have some witty moments. They are few and faaaaaaaaaar between... but they're there. Well, since that is out in the open now: yes, one of the new objectives is uploading data from three different points. For you soloers, yes, they can be done one at a time... but it goes MUCH faster if three of the four squadmates stand on them at the same time. Like how in ME3MP hacks would upload faster if everyone stood in the magical circle and held hands singing "Kumbaya" together. Anyone have any guesses how these will play out in pug matches? Oh, yes, indeed. Was literally my first thought when encountered: "This will not go well with PUGs in the wild."

Noticing that users that post in the multiplayer forums tend to be more savage, pessimistic, cynical, and witty. Definitely the first three, not sure anyone here is capable of being witty though. I occasionally have some witty moments. They are few and faaaaaaaaaar between... but they're there. 2 minutes of xbox mp gameplay, shit quality. Looks like upload objective has 3 locations instead of 1, krogan berserkers are new dragoons, counted 8 enemy marks on radar, new mp narrator is that turian Lt. Kandros, Bioware doesn't allow folks to record footage probably because of that upcoming "IGN first" mp stream (Dark Gods preserve us ) Well, since that is out in the open now: yes, one of the new objectives is uploading data from three different points. For you soloers, yes, they can be done one at a time... but it goes MUCH faster if three of the four squadmates stand on them at the same time.

Will you have any hot Gameshark strategies to share with us on launch day? Pffffft, I wish! Sadly, I'm a SPECTRE scrub so I spent the majority of my time randomly throwing myself against shit and trying to catch up to BroJo in e-peen... I mean... APEX score.

"Early Alpha" I guess alpha's these days have shadows, final textures, UI and fully functional gameplay elements. Real alpha footage would never see the light of day it would be so ugly. Can they just call it what it is and not lie to us? Like, the only reason you put that tag on is so that people who scour the video and see any boo-boos can get shouted down by people who don't know what alpha footage is saying "ITS FRIGGIN' EARLY ALPHA. SHUT UP. IT'LL BE FINE" It hit an absurd extreme with DAI where they claimed that basically every bit of pre-release footage was their "pre-alpha" build for the game. As for the video: I'm less cranky about the prestige system after that explanation. I'm more curious about level design and how much influence it took from DAIMP Technically, it was an early alpha. When the closed alpha test occurred at the end of January, we were actually playing a December build which was not the most recent version of the MP build. Probably so that if leaks did occur, it wouldn't be of the most recent alpha build at the time. Not entirely sure. But that would likely be the reason why it's being referred to as an "early alpha". It was, indeed, an earlier alpha we were poking.

Ian S. Frazier @tibermoonAll the MP characters represent the best of of APEX, essentially the ultimate strike team. They're who you play in MP. There will also be an APEX score, which will be the new e-peen measuring stick. That is exactly what I thought. I was like..."is that FB Dagger?" Yep same here, looks exactly like dagger, looking forward to it Adding the verticality really is a cool element. Not sure if that coolness will eventually wear off, but I found it to be pretty fun. PUGs can just sit up at the top and try and get their snipe on again. Operative word being "try". There's more of an effort to flush players out of camping zones, but knowing both BSN and PUGs, where there's a will, a way will likely be found eventually.

Sum up 99% accurately the working experience at any large multinational company, i worked at a company in the Dental division of Danaher Corporation. Sometime i wonder why are we still in business, probably because dental implants market is so niche and consumers have to buy from us. So much truth. That honestly felt like the identical thing someone could write about departing my particular company as well. I often joke that the reason I've made it 10 years there is because I am clearly a masochist who enjoys punishing myself brutally on mental and emotional levels.

Speaking of the topic at hand, work has consumed my free time a lot lately and I've missed whatever the recent bombshell was. Not to dredge up hurt feelings, but could somebody clue me in - in a nutshell version - what's going on? Some sort of romances confirmation of some type? Sorry. I'm trying to rewind back through the pages to find out... Someone who play the game early posted an article where they said Liam is very explicitly not into men. It was a bit more ambiguous with Cora but people are getting sure she is straight too. Jaal is up in the air but the leak that said he's straight is looking more accurate. So it is looking like no m/m squadmates. I think that's about what I can think of as far as news that kind of came up today. Well, shit. That seems incredibly odd to me. Especially after Dorian in DAI... seemed like, for the most part, he was incredibly well-received (other than from the usual homophobes of the world, for which there is quite possibly no help). Personally, he was my favorite romance behind Solas (clearly, Solas wins only because I apparently love punishing myself brutally on an emotional level ) and I say that as a hetero female who adored Dorian's friendship so much that I HAD to make a Quizzy on my second playthrough to give Dorian a happy romance path. Seems insane not to have one m/m option, especially odd for there not to even be a male bi-option. Holding out hope for y'all.

In answer to my own inquiry:
Author T. M. Lowe @tiffanymlowe So, if I'm understanding right, Strike Teams are just a way for SP-only folks to unlock MP rewards in SP w/o playing MP? 1/2
Author T. M. Lowe @tiffanymlowe And if you're a regular MP player, you're essentially unlocking these anyway so Strike Teams don't matter to you? 2/2
Ian S. Frazier @tibermoon Some ST missions are ONLY for Strike Teams. "APEX" missions can be done by either STs or in MP. Do both to gain all rewards.

I hate soloing, so if I don't have to do it, then I won't. Also, sorry, but I will totally embarrass myself in PUGs with first-time map/gun/character experimentation. I don't give a rip if I look like an idiot to others.

It is an ancient, time-honored tradition.
Do not question the tea-bag. Simply embrace it. Preferably with your face.
