Mass Effect: Andromeda (PC/Mac/PS4/XB1)

[Greedouw]

Has it been 600 years since "The Shepard?"

[TheDirtyHobo]

Was it confirmed at some point that the andromeda galaxy has native humans? One of the npcs in the cinematic trailer said: "he's a human from another galaxy". I could just be reading too much into it.

Because they're humans... from another galaxy? The milky way is another galaxy if you're from Andromeda.

[Kuya]

Saying "humans from another galaxy" is redundant though. Like a frenchman in Paris saying those 'americans are from another country'.

Maybe it was just an oversight on their part and I'm reading too much into it.

[Krandor]

My line of thinking (and playing into the 600 year gap) is that something delays your specific group, and by the time you arrive in Andromeda various other pathfinders have already at least partially colonized the galaxy.

Isn't there some scientific name for that. Technology advances so fast that any ship we send out will be outpaced by ones sent out in the future?

[Obsidian]

Could also mean they have a species in Andromeda they refer to as "humans" and obviously we're different so they need to specify.

I wouldn't read too much into it. Likely just awkward writing.

Bioware writing.

Also I really don't see the redundancy of saying they're from a different galaxy. It's a big place, it would clarify that they're not just some previously unknown native species.

[Kuya]

Pretty much irrelevant at this point since it's likely poor writing but: there's a difference between "humans from another galaxy" and "they're humans, they're from another galaxy".

[TheDirtyHobo]

I don't think going to a zoo and saying "it's a lion from another continent" is entirely out of place. It's a bit clumsy, but it's a conceivable thing someone could say.

Anyone notice this logo similarity? @2:56

[Obsidian]

Forgot to mention the new race they showed off in that trailer looks pretty awesome.

You know in Mass Effect 3 I didn't touch multiplayer until the very end because I was so focused on single player ,I kind of regret that decision. I think I will start with multiplayer right out the gate on this one and then eventually do single player

[Zetanio]

Wat. Single player is the best part.

[Krandor]

The multiplayer in 3 was really fucking good when it didn't have any right to be, but this series will always be about the single player experience.

[Seravi Edalborez]

I'm not ashamed to admit I sunk months into 3's MP to the point where SP was not only an afterthought but I was totally ambivalent about the ending complaints, both pre and post "adjustment". Salarian Infiltrator #1.

Like, the demo pre-release that had MP included, I played that right up to the point where it went down before the game launched. Amazing experience.

[Zetanio]

:\

[Anoat]

Games like this I won't touch the MP until I'm done with the SP campaign because there are always assholes who will tell you spoilers during a match.

[Rulke]

Wat. Single player is the best part.

Originally I thought the same way, which is why I didn't bother with MP until before attack on Cerberus base. However once I did, I found I loved it and it added a whole new replay value to the game. I have no idea how hours sunk into SP vs MP compare, but I loved both. Equally excited for both in this game.

[TheDirtyHobo]

Multiplayer was the best part of 3 but that's mostly because the story was a total shitshow.

[Moss]

:\

...did you play the multiplayer on 3?
