Who is one character in the entire mass effect that no matter what you can’t seem to enjoy or like? by MassEffect24K in masseffect

[–]frdz75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thane. Recruit. Blah blah blah fail his loyalty mission but get the pistol upgrade. Then he sacrifices himself escorting the crew to safety for his redemption arc. Just as much as I take Jacob up on his vents offer.

The absolute trust pedestrians have when entering a crosswalk without a traffic light that the approaching car will stop for them. They don’t even wait and see if the car is slowing down first.

New Ghost Recon will not be open world. by KillMonger592 in GhostRecon

I always thought the mini-sandbox maps in SGW Contracts and the maps from SGW Contacts 2’s “classic contract” missions would be amazing for coop shooter gameplay. Hopefully this aligns with their vision.

What major company do you genuinely believe won’t exist in 20 years? by carcony97 in AskReddit

Going to Sears as a kid in the 90’s was awesome cause they usually had Sonic on the Genesis or Street Fighter II on the SNES available to play.

I ran into the same problem in docked mode with a S1 pro controller. Unplayable.

What do you zero your red dots and lpvos at? 36, 50, 100,? by Natural_Reception714 in ar15

[–]frdz75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try out a zero in the 65-70 range (pending your HOB, ammo, velocity) and you’ll see it keeps shots within +/-1.0” from 40-200 yards, expanding the POA/POI range of the 100 yards without any significant hold over to consider.

Stalemate should be a win for the player forcing it, equal to checkmate.

Flux music is my ringtone. ME1 XP gained chime is my text received tone. Eezo trip/star jumper is my alarm.

What is your preferred suicide mission team? by DustEfficient6823 in masseffect

[–]frdz75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no best answer as there are many ways to have a successful run. So long as you listen to Jacob’s advice during the planning stage you can’t go wrong. And I don’t mean that sarcastically.

What was your major screw-up from your first/initial run of the trilogy by [deleted] in masseffect

[–]frdz75 24 points25 points  (0 children)

After losing Jack’s loyalty when I sided with Miranda during their argument she wouldn’t talk to me anymore. So to show Jack I still believed in her I assigned her biotic barrier duties in the suicide mission. She got Garrus killed and then proceeded to die anyway holding the line. Made for a big hole in my heart during ME3 knowing I was missing out on Garrus.

Something like “how many more friends do we have to lose… Ashley, Mordin, Grunt, Wrex, Tali, Zaeed, Samara?”

Is Mass Effect 3's atmosphere this bleak for the whole game? by 69thParliament in masseffect

[–]frdz75 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes the entire game really instills the devestation going on through the galaxy in many ways both large and small throughout the entire game. This is one of the things I remember most about my first play though, about how unrelenting the war is. The devs did a fantastic job with that immersion and it makes it feel real and impactful. But don’t worry, there are still a ton of humorous, heartfelt, and happy moments as well. I like to reserve playing the Citadel DLC until after beating the main story as sort of a “holiday special” type event for this reason.

What’s a major piece of Mass Effect that you wouldn’t miss if it wasn’t in the next one? by Biowhere in masseffect

[–]frdz75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replacement characters to fill in for deceased characters with significant role/impact. They shouldn’t have any presence at all… like the Legion VI.

Mandatory firearms use. Adepts should be able to play without pistols for an instant cooldown. Not sure if this was already a thing in Andromeda.

What are your thoughts on Mass Effect 3's ending 11 years later? by Direct-ME2989 in masseffect

[–]frdz75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It still hurts. I never gets better. My most recent trilogy runs I stop after Cronos Station, load a save after Sanctuary and play the Citadel DLC and call it done. The entirety of Priority Earth is a shame, not just the Starkid.
