Thanks. Can't wait.

 

[Lifejumper]

Troy Baker will be apparently voicing Kai Leng.

 

[EatChildren]

Kinda want.

 

[Metalmurphy]

What's this about BF3 players being able to play? Is this for the PC version?

 

[Jburton]

What was the beta access that came with BF3 limited edition (PS3) about?

Is this it?

 

[EatChildren]

ME3 demo has single player and multiplayer. Single player is available when the demo launches today. Multiplayer is available to everyone on the 17th. If you have a BF3 online pass, you can play the multiplayer portion from today instead.

 

[MarshMellow96]

Double tap A to leap without going into cover, double tap A while running into cover(or just tap A as soon as the getting into cover animation stArts)to slide over it and keep running.

This helped. Thanks.

I don't know, it's fun, but I didn't play ME2 so I don't know what's really going on, nor do I care about the characters. Maybe I'll fix that soon...

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Kinda want.

But dude what if The Reapers are real...

AND THAT'S HOW THEY'LL GET TO EARTH.

 

[Bisnic]

I know this is the demo thread and all, but has Bioware released any Citadel media? You'd think that we would have at least 1 screenshot by now. I hope we get to walk "outside" again.

Not really. The Citadel does appear in the FemShep trailer if you keep your eyes peeled.

[Blue Ninja]

If they'd put that in the CE, they could've charged me €100 for it and I still would've bought it.

 

[i-Lo]

I am away at work and so I wanted to know since it's already 14th, is the demo up for the public?

Anyone? (for 360)

 

[Bisnic]

Not really. The Citadel does appear in the FemShep trailer if you keep your eyes peeled.

What about Omega and Illium? Have they mentioned if these 2 will come back at all? I know the Citadel is supposed to be "bigger than ever", but that's all i heard about hubs.

 

[burgerdog]

Anyone? (for 360)

I downloaded it nearly 6 hours ago.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I started playing it, felt so pumped to finally be back controlling shephard.

Then it hit me that this was only a demo and decided to stop right after you

drop down with wrex.

I'm waiting for the full game, confident of the good times ahead!

Tagging for the super spoiler sensitive;

Spoiler

Omega is almost guaranteed given the events of Invasion, and I'm pretty sure BioWare mentioned we'd return to Illium. Could be wrong though.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Sweet jebus, i'm hyped. Bring it the fuck on!

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Please let the Xbox controller work!

 

[burgerdog]

Please let the Xbox controller work!

I hope so. I want to play the pc version from the couch.

 

[EatChildren]

Please let the Xbox controller work!

They don't. No official controller support for ME3 PC.

Thanks and thanks for spoiler tags before someone kills me for asking. Hoping to see

Spoiler

Aria again, she was cool in ME2.

 

[shinobi602]

after 5 years controlling Sheperd still feels GRAW-like.

Why am I the only being in the universe that can't climb up things without going into cover?

If you sprint towards a ledge/cover, Shepard will automatically lunge over it. Pretty nice addition.

She's back. Carrie-Anne Moss was confirmed to return for the role in the voice cast PR.

Bioware said the Citadel hub is even bigger than ME1's.

 

[ultron87]

Can I use my Shepard in the demo?

 

[CorrisD]

Enjoyed it, very much still Mass Effect 2, which isn't a bad thing, but it is nice to see them improve on things and expand the point system a bit, though I found it annoying I couldn't switch shoulders during combat, I know we knew we couldn't do it but it didn't make it any less frustrating for my head.
That music in the first section was also awesome, I thought the ME2 soundtrack was pretty good so I'm really looking forward to getting the ME3 one too.

Can you buy Mass Effect models and stuff yet?
I would love a Normandy SR2 Cerberus/Alliance for one of my shelves, would look pretty darn sweet.

Though saying that and a quick google apparently they were selling SR2 models back when ME2 arrived and don't any more, lame, I completely missed that.

Can I use my Shepard in the demo?

Nope, just the default Male/Female ones.

 

[i-Lo]

I downloaded it nearly 6 hours ago.

Wow! Thanks.

 

[bigwinnerx]

Have both an Xbox and PS3.

Xbox Gold has lapsed so considering ME3 on PS3 for the multi stuff even though I like the Xbox controller better. And my old Xbox was stolen with all my ME1 and ME2 data, so I have no carryover.

What should win out, multiplayer or controller preference?

 

[lucius]

Di you have to finish the whole demo to get the extra content for Kingdom of Amalur?

 

[Tacitus_]

If you sprint towards a ledge/cover, Shepard will automatically lunge over it. Pretty nice addition.

So sprint is separated from cover again? Good, because I fucking hated it when I tried to sprint to different cover and then got killed because Shep thought it'd be nice to chill out on the wrong side.

 

[Wonko_C]

Please let the Xbox controller work!

Like I said a few pages ago, I've been using this:

It works great in ME2 (ME1 is a lot more finicky though) pretty sure it'll be just as good in ME3.

Controller. But i will probably never touch MP. To me Mass Effect is all about the Pure Solo Experience.

What are you talking about? Things From Another World has both the Cerberus and Alliance SR-2 for around $30.

[kingellesar]

Kinda want.

Any more info on this? I have both the replica ships and would love that one to go with the collection.

Downloaded the demo, how long is it? I am only playing it for Kingdoms gear, although I may not bother because I don't want to play ME3 now >_< Don't want to take away any of the excitement for next month!

 

[Kntj]

My 2006 xbox 360 finally RROD'd today when I was going to try the demo.

 

[EatChildren]

Any more info on this?

No idea. I got the shot from here.

Thanks!! I'll try this out later. I was super worried after reading about the no controller support as I really want to play ME3 on my plasma with full surround.

 

[Phat Michael]

Anyone? (for 360)

It is. Just finished it with a sentinel shep. The sound is so fukn amazing. Sounds like war of the worlds or something during the battles.

 

[bigwinnerx]

Controller. But i will probably never touch MP. To me Mass Effect is all about the Pure Solo Experience.

Mentally, I've already agreed with you as I have Xbox on preorder. But the multi kinda intrigues me but not enough to reup on Gold.

 

[Sojgat]

I hope there is some kind of grain filter in the finished game, it just doesn't look like mass effect without it. the graphics look kind of flat reminds me of bf3 on 360.

 

[exYle]

Troy Baker will be apparently voicing Kai Leng.

Pretty good news if true; where did you hear this?
Also, I was looking at his previous work via Wikipedia, and I gotta say, it's probably the most vibrantly written Wikipedia article I've ever written. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troy_Baker

I thought I had read somewhere that

Aria T'loak

would be a squadmate for a mission.

 

[exmachina64]

Ouch. My 2007 360 RROD'd a week before Mass Effect 2 came out.

It says he's an avid gamer, maybe he wrote his own Wikipedia article?

 

[Nexas]

What the hell is up with cool down timer? It was normal during the opening, but it jumps to about 16 seconds during the second half.

 

[Kem0sabe]

Just finished watching the second part of the demo on IGN, and i can´t shake the feeling that the camera is even closer to shep than in ME2? also the FOV just seems wrong somehow.

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Like I said a few pages ago, I've been using this:

So no concessions to make with this program + plug and play? Besides rumble perhaps.

I really don't want to have to go into some setup screen to adjust stick deadzones and stuff.

It was in the beta leak. Not sure why they took it out.

 

[JerkShep]

With all this releases I've lost track, is the "launch trailer" coming today?

What the hell is up with cool down timer? It was normal during the opening, but it jumps to about 16 seconds during the second half.

It's because in the second part you're stuck with 4 weapons, in the first part you have only 1. There's a weight system not fully explained yet but basically more weapons = longer cooldown

 

[Lifejumper]

Demo is not final code.

Final game looks alot more polished http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phLGBo6ACNE
