Nozza Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Haven't played ME3 in a long time, but with new enemies and characters, there's a perfectly good reason to go back on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolarFury Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Fucking finally. This. So much. I've been lurking around waiting for the event announcement, and when it was finally revealed, I actually thought "nah, not this time, not interested". But this has totally got me U-turning that thought. Sorry Borderlands 2, but I may be taking you out of the disc tray for a little while whilst I do the event and save some creds.

WalterWhite Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Amazing addition coupled with the update. This will be like a whole new game. I love the challenges but can't help think how far they would be along if they existed in the first place and finishing them seems quite daunting.

Opiate42 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Fucking finally. Agreed. May actually pop this game back in sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veedrock Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Sweet mother of sin I'm ready to get back in the game. I wonder how the new faction is going to impact Platinum. Edited October 4, 2012 by Veedrock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit-103 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Well...shit. Looks like they finally pulled me back in. Pretty excited to face off against Collectors. Also, can't wait to play as the Turian Ghost. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esio gk Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Just when I'm about to buy Borderlands 2 they announce this. I didn't think they would actually release another DLC, and a big one too. Now I'll have to actually buy gold membership. I guess people are spending a lot of money on the packs. The challanges are welcome addition but just like WalterWhite said I wonder how many of them I would already have completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grifter Reborn Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Wow. Well I'll be honest. If it wasn't for the polite "fuck you" Bioware gave me awhile back, I'd probably come out of retirement for this. But since they did, I'll devote my limited time to Gearbox and continue my struggle in Pandora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esio gk Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 After thinking about it for a while I will not play this. New maps were always the thing I was excited about the most and since this DLC has no new maps... I liked playing on new maps when they were released in previous DLCs, when I didn't know where ammo was and where enemies spawn. By the time I was done with ME3 I knew all maps (except London which I hate) in and out. Even now when I'm watching the trailer I recognize all maps and I can tell exactly where each scene takes place. 16 new characters sound promising and I like the new challenges but its not enough.

Skillet Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Getting to fight a new enemy type (to Mass Effect 3) may actually get me to play this again. Also, Scions look friggin' nasty now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Elite Elite Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 After thinking about it for a while I will not play this. New maps were always the thing I was excited about the most and since this DLC has no new maps... Um, there are going to be new maps. 6 in fact. Anyway, this looks really great! I'm starting to save up credits now so I can unlock a lot of those new guns and characters Tuesday. However, I'm sorry to see that only 4 of the 16 new characters will be available right away, with the other 12 to be unlocked later on. Here.

esio gk Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Um, there are going to be new maps. 6 in fact. The 6 maps are going to be 6 original maps with added hazars. Meltdown for Reactor, Sandstorm for Giant, Lightning for Ghost, Whiteout for White (makes sense), Swarms (of bugs) for Glacier and Acid for Dagger.

Meltdown for Reactor, Sandstorm for Giant, Lightning for Ghost, Whiteout for White (makes sense), Swarms (of bugs) for Glacier and Acid for Dagger. When I read the announcement, I just took the wording to be six new maps AND new hazard versions of some of the original maps. Well, that's a bit disappointing, but I'm still excited anyway. I think getting a new enemy faction is better than getting new maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that explains why all the locations in the new trailer looked so familiar. The new geth was supposed to use grenades, it was called the 'Geth Bomber.' I'm not sure why they're now calling it a drone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
