waa brother RM330 for CE? that was a cut trough price!!  i believe retail price also only RM249.00. and ya quite said i preorder the CE which doesn't contain AT-12 Raider. however lucky 1 shotgun doesn't make any big difference in the game than prothean dlc.

I am buying it in Aus, and it guarantees me where i can get the game on release.

But the thing is, until TiF mentioned it was mentioned in the Origin app, the 'contains new member and mission' phrase was not mentioned at all in the Origin store (Singapore), but it is in Origin US (if you go through VPN). Regardless, since the Origin app has it, I'm sure it should be ok now. Damn those EA tech support guys. Two different guys gave me the same response as if it was written on a cue card.

In other news:



I didn't expect the lithographic print and artbook to be so small ><

You need to play and complete the multiplayer objectives to obtained more than 50% of war assets to get better endings.

Its alright. ME3 will be the last EA game i bought day 1.

This company practise is just disgusting. Endless DLCs to the point where DLCs are announced as soon as the game is announced. Day 1 content that is unattainable if you miss it. Forced content in their games, like SP and coop in BF3 and MP in ME3. Congratulation to EA for beating Activision in being an ass.

Seriously, i rather play MW3 than ME3 MP. Its rubbish.

Likely their servers are swamped. Thats the reason why I prefer pre-ordering earlier to avoid stuffs like this.

Geez man, this whole Origin system is getting annoying.

My impression after first 2 hours:

- Feels like the conversation choices are much lesser now, i can literally sit down and watch most of the cut scenes. What is Bioware trying to do?

- The sounds are awesome. Looks like DICE a good job on the game.

- The guns does feel whole lot better than ME2, for the most of it.

- The graphics is a massive improvement over ME2. Man, some parts of the game is jaw dropping.

- The story so far isnt too bad, i would say, but most Bioware games kinda suck at story telling at the beginning, but the game gets a lot better later on.

For some reason, ME3 isnt as good as ME1 and ME2.

The side quests are absolutely rubbish. Talk to a random person, and then, go fetch some rubbish for them. This kind of quests are even worse than those planet exploration missions or mineral scanning. Just let me shoot something and thats it, is that hard to do that? The main quests are pretty ok, though.

The squad mates arent even as interesting as those in ME2. Why do you want to ruin it?

Then, what happen to the conversation system? It's so stripped down now, where there arent many choices to choose from now. Are they seriously trying to cater the game to those CoD players like how they ruined BF3 with Metro and the rubbish unlock tree?

The idea of forcing you to play multiplayer, because the initial EMS is only 50% is incredibly annoying. Why did you want to shove a multiplayer to the single player game in the first place? Not like those coop matches are fun to begin with. It's boring as if i want to run around in a compound aimlessly, i'll rather play MW3's Survival Spec Ops or MP than this half baked crap.

No wonder Beth never wants to do multiplayer, even a simple coop in their games, because they know, the single player's quality will get compromised.

I think thats it. No more EA games for me, as this company is just incredibly greedy and stupid. No doubt they gonna spam DLCs from now on. Hell, even Generals 2 announcement comes with the announcement of numerous DLC with the game.

Dont know about you, but the DLC as a whole, it isnt good in it's recruitment mission compared to the rest of the game. The character is great in its own was, despite he feels very dark and pessimistic to me. Oh that addition gun it comes with, man thats a fun weapon witha pretty death effect.

I hate the endings! sad.gif

But other story arcs (Krogan, Geth, Quarian) were really fukking amazing wub.gif All the good guy greg things I did in ME1 and ME2 paid off in both Krogan and Quarian story arcs, and it's pretty damn satisfying. Bioware really knows how to write a good story.

Im doing the Krogan arc, and i am really enjoying the writing. It is amazing so far.

The game pretty much picks up after the diplomacy mission.

I loved ME as a SP game. But I don't understand the hate for MP. Sure, it's not as enthralling as COD or BF, but if you look at those games, their SP campaign sucks. Playing MP is not too bad, and they're not making it something like MMOs. They tried to add something innovative, although different. And I actually think it's a very interesting idea how MP ties in to SP with the N7 missions. At least they bothered to give it some meaning and give you some incentive to play MP, unlike other games where the incentive is just to climb leaderboards.

The galactic readiness rating is forcing you to play MP. If not, prepare to do more stupid fetch quest to get more EMS. I dont even know how to get 8000 EMS for a good ending. I'm standing at 1600 now with 50% off because im not playing the gawd awful MP. at least BF and CoD do not force you to play SP to get your experience earned to 100% in MP.

Just like BF and CoD, their MP rocks but their SP sucks. ME3 is the other way round.

Does anyone else feel Javik the prothean was extremely well written? And I can't help but feel after I first met him, if only he wasn't DLC.

I have Javik, but i dont really feel his lines are well written. I dont blame him though, as:

He is awesome in combat though. And that Prothean rifle is awesome!
