Mass Effect 3

[Brill Weave]

I think I've bought three total Spectre packs. Mostly I've just been buying the recruit ones and the second level. Sadly I've had dick for luck when it comes to getting assault rifles in any packs. I only have two shitty ones to choose from. So I've just been going through using a pistol and smg and launching Pull every second.

This will be annoying as fuck on Geth levels. I already get trigger happy and start shooting my team mates who cloak right next to me. You can't tell that they aren't Geth coming up to make love to your mouth with the barrel of their shotties.

I feel the same way about people who choose to paint themselves white and then run Cerberus.

I'll paint my Geth hot pink for my team mate's sake.

[Qalbert]

I already do that even though there are no enemy Krogans.

WHY would that buff the Geth Pyro? Those guys already rape you at close range to the point where if you get caught by one you are fucked. Argh!

And are you sure about that 20,000? That puts it at more than triple the Specter pack levels... there better be a guaranteed N7 in there...

[Thoronas]

Yeah the Geth Pyro buff is kinda brutal. More damage and more shields? No mas.

[Qalbert]

And are you sure about that 20,000? That puts it at more than triple the Specter pack levels...

[Tarage]

Er... nvm, I was getting my numbers derpy. 60,000 is Spector...

I just read on Joystiq/Game Informer that those bonus characters are the action figure specific dlc which also includes new weapons for multiplayer.

http://www.joystiq.com/2012/01/23/ma...clude-me3-dlc/
http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/a...ect-3-dlc.aspx

slightly randomized during the registration and could include powerful new weapons and new characters. The pack could also include character boosters, weapon modifications, and weapon upgrades to make your multi-player squad stronger.

Pyro buff? Brutal. Vindicator nerf. Sad

So far only seen one N7 weapon from specter pack and it was a pistol. Damn my luck.

[Dylon]

I got the javelin n7 sniper today. It's worse than the widow as far as I can tell and weighs the same.

They did more than they said in the patch notes. I quit playing geth QI matches a few days ago and was doing other enemies. After the patch, they are all quite a bit tougher (geth especially, but also cerb). I find that the easiest gold matches now are the reapers with burst build sentinels and adepts.

Also, the equipment packs just give you 5 of each of the consumables and an ammo or other buff item. Responding to all the grief over not getting any med or rockets on a reliable basis.

bought a 20k pack got a reset powers "gold", wonder how many you can have.

I don't quite understand the need to reset powers when it doesn't take that long to level to 20 in the first place.

It's something useless to toss into cases with a maximum number of items, so you have to buy more for more useful items. I have 4 atm.

[Chrian]

I think it might also be targeted at people who want to try different builds?

[Rokku]

Geth buffs are pretty sadface, but they needed them. They were easy as shit compared to Cerberus and Reapers, although the thought of Hunters moving at 110% speed while cloaked has me cringing.

This was my (and friends who I play with) thoughts as well but I saw people saying Geth were the hardest on GameFAQs, not sure if they're retarded or I'm missing something obvious. I'm okay with the Geth buffs tbh though, Pyro buff seems a little unnecessary, they're already damn annoying (and they have the shittiest God damn hit box, I swear it's impossible to headshot them half the time).
