Oh well how are you supposed to have enough money to buy everything then? Are the 200k weapons mostly for NG+ then?

I'm only 6~ hours in and have about 150k after buying a bunch of weapon upgrades. Credits don't seem that hard lol

Mmm, I thought so too but you have no idea how much cash you can spend upgrading all the weapons and buying all the upgrades. It's not practical to upgrade everything. But I was thinking more from a completionist point of view.

I guess things carry over in NG+ so you can get everything there. But apparently this also happens:

Additionally, on repeat playthroughs higher levels of weapon mods are unlocked that are not available on your first attempt to save the galaxy, which is presumably quite helpful for inevitable insanity runs.

pussies

Fuck starting on insanity. I like getting through games once so I can be done with the story and then slowly go through Insanity over time.

Edit: So I just counted up all the war assets on the ME3 wiki. It only adds up to about 7k~ So either Bioware is full of shit or theres around 1k assets no one has discovered still <_< My favorite option is that its still coming in DLCs.

You are assuming the wiki is complete and that 8k is the magic number. Game has only been out for 3 days I don't think concrete info is available yet.

8k IS the magic number. That much is available from the guides. I'm only concerned about it is because this isn't a sandbox game. I've done everything possible in it and I'm not the only on stuck on the 7k~ number.

N7 editions (all formats) available on argos.co.uk from this morning.

Thank you for this. Couldn't find a copy anywhere today and then remembered this post, sure enough Argos had some left, my hero.

Just save up, there's really no need to buy any weapon mods (since you can find them all) and no need to upgrade/buy every available weapon. I easily had my spectre sniper rifle (250k) fully upgraded by tuchunka

[Gentaro]

Made something not 100% as the guide told you, not reaching 8000 assets?

I...am aware. I said that lol. I was just wondering for if you wanted to get everything for the sake of having everything.

I saw a post on some board about argos having them on Tuesday, checked it and was there with 'pre-order' slapped all over it. Get to the checkout and it said 'unable to deliver to this address'. So either argos like release day free-for-alls or they got the stock at such short notice after Game lost it they couldnt set up the website properly. Getting my order in on the bus in to town was pretty satisfying.

Fuck the guys selling N7 for £130-300 on amazon marketplace.

[Elvis]

Yeah its just one of those fetch quests. You can scan for it on a planet in the Silean Nebula.

[Dylon]

god i hate carrying the team in MP. I love vanguard but I outscore everyone by at least 30,000....and i get no added benefit.

i notice that only happens when other people are using weak guns (like me) and using engineer i end up with a lot of assists if i play with a vanguard just because of how strong their move set is

I can't find that sector for some reason. It's a regular sector right?

No. The sniper rifle is outclassed by the sniper rifle found during the geth main mission storyline.

The shotgun is outclassed by claymore(found in the beginning of the rachnid BS with krogan, but I think the graal spike thrower or whatever it is(obtained from main storyline stuff with the genophage+krogan on tuchunka).

I do think the paladin is the best handgun though.

[Brill Weave]

I've been kicking ass on MP the last day. Got my Drell Vanguard up to 18 and I'm regularly scoring over 40k. Got my readiness level up to 100%. Now time to play through again.

Sometimes you get quests before the nebula opens up. Would just continue the story and try again soon.

[Rulke]

Are all nebulas scannable? I've tried a few and gotten nothing (also doesn't seem to alert reapers)
