| Hey everyone I got the game (and it's a snazzy special edition one to boot!). If you want to add me find the name The_Tarithel. Though you might not always get the chance to play with me since my brother will be hogging the computer that has the game all the time. Still he wants to play with you lot as well. So depending whose voice you'll be hearing, It'll be myself or Tarithel. Thank you for reading this. | |

| Sent friend request, Shar. From the looks of things we've got at least a full team for multiplayer here; between Hutch, Isak, Razo, Shar and myself here's hoping we can cobble a session together sometime today or tomorrow, if you're not all too busy with the single player campaign. Drop me a line on Origin; I'll doubtless be quite active. | |

Yes! I'm part of a team. If Origin plays fair with me I guess I could join a game later today.

| I'll find you, my username is "jmmortensen" no, it's not an actual name, just a name I thought up when I thought I'd never have to use Origin.
I SHALL CHARGE, CLAYMORE, AND NOVA SPAM OUR WAY TO VICTORY | |

This action could not be completed. We may be experiencing an unusually high server load or undergoing maintenance. Please try again in a few minutes. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-- Because of Origin, I can't activate or install ME3. I guess I'll have to join you guys tomorrow unless I have a miracle. |

| Spent this night with Delta and Shards brother on multiplayer. They were doing their own thing on one side, and I was about 50 feet away, charging into everything and super-punching everyone.
Good times. Need to get a mic. | |

| The only thing that annoys me is the absence of text chat in game. Voice communication is pretty much the only way to relay info to one-another.
Also, if they're any vangaurds here, a word of advice. Don't rely on the katana, in my opinion, an SMG will give you decent close to mid range damage, while allowing you to use powers every second, which can do more reliable damage. I'm sure delta can tell you this was true. I was charging a freaking ATLAS and managed to survive. (I was of course, fleeing backwards again and again when delta and farther were doing most of the damage.
Of course, NEVER do this when you're against reapers, or have a slower playstyle. Having only an SMG will probably kill you. | |

| @Hutch: No text chat? Damn, I guess I'll be extremely silent and antisocial because I'm not going to use voice chat. @Isak: If you finished the game with a perfect playthrough I'm impressed. It has only been 3 days. |

| Not perfect, but got most of the resources. Have started a second one. Oh, and a possible multiplayer playstyle: The Claymore Some tips about the claymore; It is basicly one hit kill, but you need to get up close. It is also a one shot per magazine gun and with little thermal clips or Ammo. (8 +1) To play this means you need to be active on the flanks of the battlefield as it takes accuracy to actually make the usage worth it, because of the slow reload and little ammo. I used it on my Soldier class in the demo and while it doesn't gives you much score, it's fun to play as you need to think tactical. At least for me | |

| Me, I'm happy just playing as a maelstrom of biotic DAKKA. ...The fact that I am posting rather than playing the game is evidence enough that I have also completed the single player campaign. Now I just need to get my ME1 save through ME2 and do it all again. | |

| I loved the entire Mass Effect series, and Mass Effect 3 actrually had me on the edge of my seat half the time. But both of my favorite characters died and there was nothing I could do about it. And then the ending, ugh. | |

Considering that you have a very stylish Legion as an avatar, I can guess both of the characters. Spoilers? It seems I'm the only one that didn't finish the ME3 campaign. |

| Lol your not the only one Razo. I've yet to watch all of Mass Effect 3 still (cause Tarithel is going through the game with his save file) :P. Started to play Mass Effect hoping to achive the perfect ending by the time I finally get to the final game. | |

| Yeah, the ending is a dissapointment. You get so much free control and end up with endings like that? In games like Deus Ex, where you don't have so much importance is okay. But, Mass Effect? Straighten up BioWare. Hopefully it will continue with a DLC, someone have made a theory about it. | |

| I've been hearing almost everyone complaining about the ending for this game. From what I know, you're right to be upset over it. >_< | |

| Just for the sake of argument, here's an article that takes the opposite angle. http://penny-arcade.com/report/editorial-article/why-the-ending-of-mass-effect-3-was-satifying-and-worthy-of-the-series-mass - Spoiler:
I think I just about have a grip on what Bioware was going for with the ending; I suppose my main concern, personally, is that the switch from dark, semi-hard sci-fi to deeper symbolism was very jarring — evidence of how thinly spread their resources were on such a gigantic project, in my opinion.

| My only gripe is the complete lack of closure. We never find out what happens to the characters, does Garrus finally get that gun calibrated? Does Tali countinue to drink with the emergency introduction port? We never know. And that annoys me, because I feel like I'm leaving this epic with about 20 plotholes (left by former squadmates and people in your squad) and that really turned me off. | |
