[Zeliard]

Well, yeah, every save I have is in the cloud now, including ME2.

So, hopefully, moving it back to the hard drive before I play ME3 and everything should be fine.

So long as the hard drive you originally moved it from is your current one, I guess.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Preloaded on origin and ready to go...

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

Oh wow, very important warning for anybody playing on Xbox 360:

Wow, so glad I never bothered with that cloud save bullshit on 360. I much prefer PS3's method of simply backing up your save to the cloud instead of 360 where the entire file is in the cloud.

 

[Dany]

Its the same system for both. Except the backup for saving on the cloud is on your harddrive on the 360.

 

[shinobi602]

Spoiler

Are you talking about the EDI thing what if it's just a copy or something?

Yes that's also a possibility.

 

[LumpOfCole]

It looks like Origin is unlocking the game 9pm PST March 5th / Midnight EST March 6th.

Oh, interesting. Well either way I'm still glad I stuck to my USB stick for 360 saves!

So are there no other promotions for DLC goodies with ME3? ME2 had Dr. Pepper. The only pre-order bonus are the Argus rifle (all retailers), N7 warfare (gamestop) and the special shotgun (origin), right?

Oh, there's a shit load of toys, but those DLC unlocks are for multiplayer stuff right?

Kingdom of Alamongular Demo armor / assault rifle unlocks too.

 

[Rengoku]

You'll be fine, it's just for saves that were transferred via the cloud.

Any impressions of the PS3 version yet? I'm still going back and forth over which version to get.

I will try to provide some more impressions later. The framerate in the intro cutscenes is really uneven, yikes... On the plus side, it seems theres no initial install required.

 

[DTKT]

About EDI and what EatChildren posted:

Spoiler

According to a few individuals, the is not EDI. That is an EVA core, no clue what that is, but it's before EDI "downloads" into that shell. So yeah, no rogue EDI for now.

No specifics please

 

[rozay]

Man I'm feeling really weak I'm tempted to go find spoilers. Somebody help me please distract me somehow

start marathoning a new tv show

edit:also hmm, if anyone is stuck with that cloud save issue, it might be possible to extract the save files from the incompatible career, stick them into a new career, and go from there. Unless the edited saves/career are completely unusable in ME3, and I'll be pretty sad.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

start marathoning a new tv show

Arrested fucking Development.

Go meta.

 

[Kyoufu]

Insanely jealous of the guy with ME3 already.

Does anyone know if the ME3 online pass locks you to one account for multiplayer on PS3?

 

[rvy]

It looks like Origin is unlocking the game 9pm PST March 5th / Midnight EST March 6th.

EA is really pushing this Origin shit, aren't they?

 

[Psychoward]

Oh wow, very important warning for anybody playing on Xbox 360:

God fucking dammit, I have three games on the cloud, three, one of them is ME2.


Gah, guess I'll convert them today.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Fapping. So hard.

 

[Gillian Seed]

The original Mass Effect still has the best cover:

I always liked Japan's cover:

 

[ColonelColon]

If you're avoiding spoilers, don't watch it. It's not footage from the demo although it's still from an area earlier in the game.

Were they playing on action mode?

 

[rvy]

I always liked Japan's cover:

That's amazing, never saw it before.

 

[Bruce Lee Kicks]

Holy....now that's a good cover.

 

[Empty Space]

Arrested fucking Development.

Go meta.

I don't get it I've seen Arrested Development millions of times what makes watching it in relation Mass Effect meta? I feel like this question has an obvious answer, but I really am to damn tired to think right now.

You're watching it because you are waiting for something else.

 

[Lakitu]

Were they playing on action mode?

I'm not sure actually, they didn't say. I hope so.

On the plus side, the music, visuals and combat seemed good.

 

[Equus Bellator Apex]

just read the leaked script.


yeah, this game is going to bum some people out.

 

[zorbsie]

Took a chance and put in the online passcode for the game. Seemed to download fine. I'm on 360.

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

just read the leaked script.


yeah, this game is going to bum some people out.

Why bother with the leaked crap?!

Wait, just don't even answer.

 

[Calisto Glory]

All weapons and mods unlocked in the demo:

[Zoibie]

Sounds like the demo then. Thanks, I look forward to hearing more of your impressions.

 

[Empty Space]

You're watching it because you are waiting for something else.

Yup totally obvious and now I look like a fool.

 

[TheMan]

just read the leaked script.


yeah, this game is going to bum some people out.

bum out as in it's a sad story or as in it's a crappy story?

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

bum out as in it's a sad story or as in it's a crappy story?

Damn it I don't want to know either way! He had better spoiler tag if he answers you...

 

[ColonelColon]

Oh EA you trolls, I thought I would find all my 80$ edition shit in the most likely places and all I find is this:

So I take it that the CE bonuses aren't available until the game is unlocked?

 

[TheMan]

Damn it I don't want to know either way! He had better spoiler tag if he answers you...

if it's a crappy story I want to know so I can possibly cancel by pre-order

 

[Dresden]

Can we just not discuss the fucking script.

 

[Dany]

Can we just not discuss the fucking script.

This.

 

[TheMan]

Can we just not discuss the fucking script.

i just wanna know if it's shitty, that's it!

don't lie, you wanna know too

 

[Equus Bellator Apex]

bum out as in it's a sad story or as in it's a crappy story?

More sad then bad. There is a plot point that seems to happen no matter how you play the game.

 

[Lakitu]

Can we just not discuss the fucking script.

Pretty much what I was going to post. I thought that it was prohibited here anyway?

 

[Sotha Sil]

We already know it sucks. Let's just not discuss it.

 

[TheMan]

.

ok that's all I wanted to know, thanks

 

[Mattiator]

Well this is the first time I have ever ordered anything offline due to I couldnt find the collectors edition in stores, due to waiting to long, so I may have to wait to play

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

Is there any reason there isn't a story spoiler thread? Or is that not coming until Tuesday, even though the whole game's story has practically leaked?

 

[Kyoufu]

Fuck, stop discussing the script. God dammit.

 

[Reave]

Weekend marathon here i come!

Please tell us how the framerate is, if possible.

 

[derFeef]

Can we just not discuss the fucking script.

True words. Man people, cut some slack.

Scorpion looks godly.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Fuck off with the script discussion. Make a spoiler thread and keep it out of here.

 

[Dipswitch]

Just watched the trailer and found it to be pleasing to my brain. Dialog is pretty bad, but I suppose you can't have everything.

Since I'm not getting this at launch however, I'll be staying the hell out of this thread for the foreseeable future. Enjoy the game everyone!
