Apex pack back in the store, apparently you can buy it three times before it disappears. I bought it twice and it disappeared, so I'm guessing that for people who bought it when it was temporarily up early by accident the other week, that counts as one of the three. I don't have anything to unlock, so I tried the ol' pull the network cable both times to try to get them to land in my unclaimed packs, but no dice. Just a whole bunch of expensive consumables.

This one's simple. Clear the area and lock it down.

Destiny 2 doesn't release on PC til October 24th, so BioWare's got that going for them, which is nice.

The one thing you care about has to be something faintly ridiculous, and you also have to talk about it ALL THE TIME, in any even vaguely related context. lol

I've never installed or played it, but I did at one point add the DAI trial to my Origin account, specifically because it came with unlimited free MP. I think it would be a good move if they did the same thing for MEA. Some people might get hooked enough on the SP to buy the full game, and even if people just play the MP, a bigger MP population is a bigger MP population. I'm a hopeless optimist though so your opinion may vary.

If they turn invincible because they vault cover while you're trying to grab them, the reliable trick to making them fall through the map is to get them to vault cover again or use a ladder.

MEA isn't the worst game in the franchise? Are they counting ME Infiltrator or something? It's clearly worse than every entry in the trilogy. Hey now, I like Infiltrator. If you're gonna pick on a Mass Effect game, why not Galaxy? Spoilers: It's a top-down shooter about Jacob.

The only time I've been in there was actually with a Krogan, funnily enough. I'd charged an enemy near the glass and wound up behind it for a wave or two. Managed to get out the same way if I remember correctly.
Anyway, inb4 Plat pugs with 4x teleport dodge kits and piercing recharge guns camping the box.

Bumped into him twice in the last few days, he pulled his usual disappearing act both times. Also, biala_kawa has started taking after IAI, he bails now any time I drop into his lobby.

Not sure if this is relevant to your chart, but as others have pointed out in other threads, Stronghold is available in the $9.99 starter pack with the Turian Soldier. Didn't pay attention to the other starter packs but I think each has a different gear included.

High: New router has fixed my years of connection and lag issues, apparently. If you've played with me, you probably know what I'm talking about. Low: For some reason my frame rate cap settings won't stick, so pugs keep having to suffer through Collectors on my host at 80 FPS. Sure is exciting though. Use RivaTuner to limit framerate when hosting (it's what I do). Check your gamersettings ini on Documents/Bioware/sth too, maybe it's there. I've capped the frames in coalesced.bin, MassEffect3Config.ini, GamerSettings.ini, and the nVidia control panel's per-app settings, but I'll give that a shot too. Edit: Nice, it worked.

Bumped into SenorZanahoria for some non-stop explosion action vs Collectors. One of the more exciting games I've played in a while.

Always reminds me of this scene. Award yourself 10 geek points if you recognize it! (no cheating by looking at the URL!) "Waiter, more champaign. And plenty of ice!" You mean there are people out there who haven't seen Time Bandits?

The krogaurd had fortify, warp and shockwave. Seems like a given that clan Nakmor would bring their Shaman with them.

After a series of games on crappy hosts, I ran into a game with @ Shinobu , where things were a little better but not by much. Sorry for raging, I was just sick of lag by that point, and then of course I lost connection shortly. Later on I dropped in on Dovakiin_N7 for a couple of decent games, and then after a break to install my new router, I ran into my old friend Abramsrunner . We showed the pugs how it's done for a couple of games, but I finally had to call it a night. Thanks to everyone out there who played with me today.

I can understand their stance. Without any further enhancements to the game, their revenue from sales would almost stall. Yet, someone has to foot the bills for the MP servers and operations. And if players continue to play without spending another cent, that would mean incurring losses just to keep the franchise alive. So its about time someone did the maths for how much operational capacity would be sustainable within the proposed revenue stream. That sounds reasonable, but still it must be pretty cheap to keep running whatever servers are needed for matchmaking, store purchases, progress and manifest tracking, etc., considering the ME3MP servers are still up after all this time. Can't be many people putting money into ME3 store packs these days.

I plan to get Destiny 2 on PC, if anyone needs any teammates. I probably will too, we should post a meet up thread here or something. I have not played first Destiny but I might be willing to give it a try. If they will have some trial version, I'm surely going to check it out. For me, it largely depends on how responsive the controls are. I really can't play anything that has poor controls and input lag. Meda is not too bad, but not very good at it and if D2 improves in this aspect, at least to the level of Division, it will be tempting. Open Beta on PC starts this coming Monday I believe. Maybe Monday only for pre-order, but open to everyone during the week. Nice, I didn't realize it was so soon, I should put my pre-order in this weekend then. Maybe a LFG thread in the off topic somewhere?

Here's an interesting bug I just discovered. For the faction points daily challenges, enemies killed on Platinum count for whatever faction the lobby is set to, regardless of what faction they're actually from. So, on a Platinum Kett game, for example, Observers count for Kett daily challenge points instead of Remnant daily challenge points. Didn't notice if it affects points earned for the normal faction challenges.

What about the new characters!???????????????? artificer, commando, etc etc??????????? :sob: :sob: :sob: Already in the files. Probably just waiting for the server to say "Hey, make these drop". Yes, in fact I think some modders have already tested out the unreleased kits by swapping them with existing kits. We just have to wait for them to unlock via some kind of server setting or countdown timer or who knows what.
