Mass Effect Andromeda Issues Reports

  @TigoODonnell Yeah, like this is a baffling statement bc I do not think there is a way to make mass effect more like television/cinema than it already is. Unless the problem is that today's media ecosystem moves too fast for something like a Star Trek or BSG to thrive

  @BozackDakilla @vrilliumlive Artillery, Rockets, Cruise Missiles, and Ballistic Missiles are designed for mass effect, not the deliberate targeting of a single soldier. They are impersonal; drones are personal. That's the issue.

  @SaraJoan11 You're making assumptions for everyone that played it. Like I and many have said, there were other problems with the game competely outside Shepard and their legacy. Having legacy at all can artificially boost a game. Who's to say without the Mass Effect brand the game would have even burst out of obscurity? Just because you enjoy the game enough to make a twitter page about it, doesn't mean others can't seperate their bias and fairly judge. You can like what you like but condescending to me doesn't change the facts. The game was rushed out the door and by doing so, a lot suffered. The pacing was off, the story wasn't incredibly cohesive, the characters weren't as compelling as they could be, it was riddled with bugs and problems, there was no real consequence to choice, the open world structure wasn't developed properly, etc. If a game can't grow on it's own at release, it is not healthy.

  @ZenitaDee @LumpyTheCook No, you're just really stupid. The plot for the trilogy barely moves an inch through the entirety of Mass Effect 2. It is riddled with plot holes along the way. You not seeing that isn't my problem.

  This news angers me to the very depths of my soul. You have no idea how badly I was left broken after #HaloTheSeries. I take lore seriously. And I treat the lore of my favorite franchises with absolute respect and love. If @amazon @PrimeVideo ruins #MassEffect for me… I just…

  @RazorFist The ammo clip for Mass Effect 2.. why. Why ******** do that? The weapon system in the first game was great and it did not need to be revamped. Sure the shotgun was broken as hell, but it was FUN.

  @Ali_ibn_Snafu @DAKKADAKKA1 @grok The good guys win even with the bad ME3 endings, but Mass Effect itself didn't suffer that same issue with it's ending lol

  @MythicMgames Andromeda is a good game in itself. The problem is that it doesn't have what made Mass Effect great. Companions are bland, choices seem less impactful, story is not as good... combat is great, though. IMHO, as long as you don't expect it to be as good as the trilogy, go for it.

  My problem with Avowed is it feel familiar and while the voice acting is good and even has Garrus from Mass Effect as a companion character the actual story and character are just kinda flat and uninteresting. Not a bad game but also missing....something.

  @LordOfTheKink @Dreamboum @TigoODonnell If anything, ME3 makes ME2 better cause it's just one whole part of a grander tale regardless of how the ending went. On its own merits...Mass Effect 2 has got some problems.

  @brockpierson Elder Scrolls Online, Skyrim or Morrowind or Oblivion, Mass Effect Legendary, Witcher 3, or Cyberpunk 2077. The issue with doing it 12 hours a day if an MMO would be downtime due to maintenance!

  @justbrowsintidy @maxdeploy @WeAreMassEffect Except it was good. My personal take is if people think it sucked actually don’t understand Mass Effect as a whole. And yes there were a large vocal group who whinged there was no Shepard. The problem largely came with EA doing what EA does best and that’s being total ********.

  @KaiKai2492 Tbf, games have tried to implement the squad/command system (Brothers in Arms, Mass Effect). A core issue has always been 'why spend time ordering AI when I can just shoot them myself'.

  @VolkariN7 It would had been a decent start of a trilogy. A lot of kinks and problems could had been fixed in a sequel. Andromeda is a objectively better game than Mass effect 1.

  @DejavionL75163 @Battlefield @masseffect Valorant requires this. Also The Finals and ARC Raiders in Future. Most gamers haven't even noticed this because Secure Boot is enabled by default in modern systems and is a system requirement for Windows 11 anyway. It's also entirely a "YOU" problem.

  @SerasReborn @Italianbagged yeah and you would meet a lot of anti-woke people who would not actually have a problem with those games, **** Mass Effect Legendary Edition, the only complaint the anti-Woke people had was EA censoring the game to pander to the feminist

  The clips corner (@OptmistSunday) reported 38 minutes ago

  @Cloveruu98 @WeAreMassEffect i believe that it was. i played it post all the patches, i really didnt experience all the broken-ness people did on release. despite the game being mostly bug free, the mass effect formula just wasnt properly adapted to an open world formula, game got boring kinda fast.

  @RenfailSoL But the biggest problem that Starfield did is advertise "expansive space combat, exploration, ship building" and at launch, ship building. The space side felt lackluster that's why. If MassEffect advertised space combat but then gave us what Starfield did, I'm sure ppl complain

• 
  Aaaaaaaaaaaaa (@B1GPP3N3RGY) reported 43 minutes ago

  @kalaelizabeth I don't really see the problem. A lot of these games are citing inspiration from mass effect and this one is being headed by former bioware employees. It's like complaining that a videogame was called a souls-like when it cites dark souls as a direct inspiration

  @RazorFist I've always hated that Mass Effect 2 decided to change the genre from rpg to shooter with rpg elements. I also really hate that they addressed the problems with ME1's inventory system by just stripping it out completely.

  @Red_Ayan @tekarino @QuiteShallow Trying to shift it to: "But mass effect too!!!!" doesn't make Taash any less poorly written at points. You bring up the companions in ME2, but ignore that those companions don't have the same writing problems that Taash had.

  @TheMadGamerHere @getrichordietri @DiscussingFilm It's not an insurmountable problem by any metric. But you do this wrong, and aim it purely at the gaming fans and you're left with a show that will come off like a poor man's star trek. Mass effect is so much more than that. We WANT all audiences to understand this great world.

  @MythicMgames I love the Mass Effect Trilogy. I preordered the digital deluxe version of Andromeda. I have yet to finish that game. Every time I try to play through it, I stop around the 50% complete mark. The game is boring. People will whine about graphics and glitches, but the game is boring. The enemies are basically space dark spawn (and its not as cool as it sounds.), the boss battles are almost all the same, there is very few major choices... I could go on and on about how lack luster and bad Andromeda is, but the headline is that Andromeda is boring. Thats its main problem. And it has a bunch of problems.

  @HeavensFirstMan As many others have pointed out, Minecraft isn't a game just for kids, and it's already had several "Mature" game crossovers before, such as Dead Space, Halo, Mass Effect, Call of Duty, etc. For that reason i don't see an issue. That said, these skins look genuinely bad.

  HDR game analysis (@HDRgameAnalysis) reported 58 minutes ago

  @Infrastructur31 @mrpyo1 There are native HDR support in Mass Effect Legendary Edition (ME1, ME2, ME3). If you have a good HDR capable display, then why not use HDR instead of SDR. The fix in the video is very easy to do.

  @Housemarque Fix the HDR in the next patch. Also do a fix for the story like Mass Effect had to do.
