New abilties?

I'm still disappointed that you haven't got a newsletter, though...

So it happened again. I know who the host was this time but I don't know if I'm allowed to drop names.

I don't want to get this person banned, but if it's safe and others want to know, the host was 'Paladin_EE15'. 

This is my thing.. if this could be just Private lobbies this would be awesome, in fact i'd be doing this myself. However there is no protection against this hitting public lobbies and that for me is where I detach from it. I am pretty sure that if it was contained in private lobbies, then this mod idea is absolutely viable.. but if it negatively affects other players experience, then i'm guessing that Bioware will take a hard line approach on it.

I'm going to shock a few here now and tell you right now, that i've TESTED the modded chars already in a private lobby and yes they work perfectly.. and at the end of the day if you chop and change skills around, you are still at the very most going to have 82 points to spend. However other things like biotic punch on the Batguard and Offensive Biotics/barrier actually make the batguard a whole different beast to play entirely.

So my tests to satisfy my curiosity done, my reservation about public lobbies holds. Looking at the posts around the place though, it would seem that people HAVE been playing them in public lobbies and as per the OP's post, it completely threw them.

I would love a blacklist option in lobbies where it autokicks certain bot players when they dare to join my games. Such as Farisabdhalim who is STILL able to join games, sit in the start area and not contribute to any game at all.

Blocking players is one thing, but i think i've seen at least 2 bots of recent weeks that are doing the rounds in games, and when people disable their voip and cannot hear others on mic's, it makes it impossible to let them know to vote kick a player out. I was playing a game with Hulksmash yesterday, and had to abort because this farisabdhalim joined and did the usual bot inactivity thing.. as i couldn't get anyone to vote kick on top of the vote i'd already applied, i was not sitting in the game to give this bot player an easy win. So my choice was simple, leave the game, lose my boosters, and hope that hulksmash could see my reason why in the end. It will have been blatantly obvious that the bot player never left the circle and just died repeatedly, so i'm hoping they've now seen for themselves that this bot is to be kicked in future.

YES i would love a block feature, but i think it needs to go further than this.

I think it just applies to blocking people contacting/adding etc you on origin. ohhh it would be nice if it auto-blocked bot players joining games.

What i really want is ability to move bot players to the 'tutorial' mission automatically when they click join game instead that way they will sit all day in a game that will never kill them and they will never earn any xp MP credits either

Rudimentary peasant. You see my 60fps, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.

PC master race? A label created by the peasants to give voice to their inferior hardware.

We are eternal. The pinnacle of evolution and gaming. Before us, you are nothing. Your extinction is inevitable.

My kind transcends your very understanding. We are each a nation. Independent, free of all weakness. You cannot even grasp the nature of our fully customisable existence.

We have no beginning. We have no end. We are infinite. Millions of years after your console has been rendered obsolete and forgotten, we will endure.

This might sound far-fetched, but wouldn't it be cool if someone created models of Quarians/Drell/Volus/Hanar/Elcor which can replace the models on the existing kits (Eg: Quarian model using the Krogineer kit)
