I'm sure it will happen eventually. There's no way multiple Pro configurations were going to be a priority for them in the final stages of development. Especially with all the issues this game is facing...
Yes, it's just weird that they are sending keys out already. So why can't I get mine, too?

ME3 co-op had gotten to a point where it feels so good, but dumbass BioWare is over here listening to the people who say that ME1 had good combat.

Ok I'm confused, I hit G to scan but the interface refuses to open. I try holding and tapping the button, nothing works. Is this a glitch, area sensitive mechanic or am I blind?
This is happening on the prologue planet btw.

To others in the UK though, or abroad where release dates are earlier? I imagine they're sorting key releases in order of release times.
Are you getting shot at? In combat the G button seems to put away your weapon and then bring it back out, for whatever reason.

No, this is after encountering the first enemies and you need to scan one.
Maybe exiting and restarting the game will fix it..

I've spent about 4 hours with it now and have really been enjoying it. Most of the complaints seem really overblown.

I'm really enjoying the little conversations between squadmates while driving the Nomad around on planets.

Jaal: So, why do you wear bones on your armor? Is it a way to show respect to those whom you've bested in combat?
Drack: It scares people. I want people to know that if you piss me off, I'll wear your spine as a hat.

Restarting the game fixed the scanning glitch, so that's an easy fix at least.

The thing that comes after the
on Eos is pretty damn cool. It's stuff like that which makes the whole series my favourite.
Goosebumps.

Goosebumps.
For fuck sake...
I am really trying here... I am really trying to justify purchasing this game...
But it seems Bioware just doesnt want me to...
After everything else, even playing on Pro cant guarantee smooth performance...
SMH really... I mean just add this fucking 1080p mode... how hard can it be? Its already a poorly optimized game all around, just wow...

Wow, this dialogue from the Gamespot review. I can`t believe that this is Mass Effect.

it's barely holding 30. on most combat scenarios it's in the 20s. Waiting for a Digital Foundry analysis

Ended up pretty happy with how my Ryder turned out. After messing with the creator for a few minutes I was ready to give up but ended up tweaking one of the presets and came to really like him.

What a mess... pretty unbelievable that they did not include a simple 1080p mode like they said they would.
Oh and in case someone in Bioware is reading this, please dont add "extra graphical features" if you cant hold a smooth 30 fps performance...
Nope. During missions, there's checkpoints that will auto save. The save game option in the menu is blacked out. I've been playing for 2 hours now and have still not had the option to manually save (I'm still on the first planet). It really ruins my desire to explore because I don't know if my progress will save or not once I shut off my console.

well i am happy that they added a Chromatic aberration toggle, that shit is just disgusting and the use of the effect should be mandatorily banned

Where can I find the pre-order and deluxe edition weapons and armor?
Is there anywhere that you can store weapons/mods you don't want taking up inventory slots?
In the pathfinder's cabin on the tempest there is a special requisitions console you can interact with to pick up all of that stuff.

This is my only complaint about the game so far, EA why could you just use dedicated servers like on your other big franchises. The connections are so bad sometimes. It makes me never want to use quickmatch and always just host my own game, which takes forever to get a full group in.

Finally finished the prologue planet, can't wait to see the game open up more and exploring planets becomes an option.
I also think darker eyes on Sara would look much better. I've played the game for about 17-18 hours now including the trial and honestly the faces look fine more often than not the start of the game is definitely the worst of it. And the actual body animations during gameplay they are procedural and as such bugs where the body moves in a way it's a not suppose to will show up now and then but generally it's fine again.

I was at first not a fan of Cora. But she has grown on me. As far as seconds in commands who get shafted go, she
Maybe I will romance her. It's vanilla as fuck in this game. But it's the games fault for not having a hot hanar romance.
takes it very well

Greenmangaming is doing the same thing. Although with them, they said "within 48 hours of the release date", which means March 23rd or up to 48 hours after since they also said they aren't releasing them until the UK release date. I want to play the game, but I think it might actually be better to wait a few weeks to see if any new patches are on the horizon first.
There is no 1080p mode? What the hell Bioware.
I'm a huge ME fan and planning to get the game at day one (EU) but so far everything is telling me to wait until they fix this shit..
Not sure if that was intentional but i laughed.

Oh baby it's 4 am and I'm talking about mass effect

Not sure if you have seen the video of her sex scene, but the ass was phat.
OT: Game's overall plot is still interesting and love the combat. But man, some of the dialogue is like an anchor around the game's neck.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
And we're off. Starting afresh with a new Ryder from the trial, playing slow and taking my time. Pretty happy how my character turned out.

The writing is so bad, particularly the dialogue interaction - I never thought I'd play a game with this sort of budget that does it worse than Fallout 4 which is funny since Bethesda made Fallout 4 so bad in this area because it went the Bioware route.
So many of the dialogue choices themselves are really bad too (falls into the area of writing), so many of the responses are so disconnected and meaningless that it feels like they would only write that dialogue interaction in one particular direction and just quickly filled the rest with complete nonsense.
Also it seems a planet only uses a very limited amount of creatures throughout it (3-4 of the same models? rest are just reskins), at least Inquisition had variety in its areas.
The issue of animations and graphical quality is the least concern to me when the writing has been the weakest of any Bioware game, let alone as a game in general. Quite a lot of reviews mentioned this too.

Why does everyone take a picture of their Ryder doing a high school year book photo pose.

That's a cute Sara.
Yeah, they've gone for this more chatty, natural, lighter tone with the dialogue. It works 80% of the time. When it doesn't work it's just awkward, and sounds like voice actors in separate booths phoning it in. Overall, it's acceptable and I still think the male Ryder is much better than male Shepard.
