Starts at the top of the hour. I think it'll show things like exploring a planet, a side mission or two, perhaps some multiplayer.

[Skyr]

Awesome. I hope it will be live gameplay.

And Prey right after that!

 

[Salz01]

What about character creator? Still no sign of that

All I'm interested in seeing at this point.

 

[GenericBadGuy]

Excellent! I'll get to see whatever tiny smidgen they show off before I head to work.

Just a note: the link in the OP goes to the mobile site which formats strange when opening it on the desktop. Edit: Fixed!

[shinobi602]

Starting now.

 

[GenericBadGuy]

Wasn't that line the Skyrim line? "See that mountain? You can climb that mountain."

 

[ViciousDS]

Suvi............will bang XD

 

[ced]

Geez what's with the faces and how the eyes jitter around.

 

[ViciousDS]

ok maybe no bang.......she has a fucking death stare with those eyes......holy hell!

 

[tmespe]

The humans look more alien than the aliens with those facial animations.

 

[Trey]

Man, the facial animations are still rough. And those dead eyes...

 

[Ridesh]

She looks like chucky.

 

[GenericBadGuy]

Dang can't hear Galaxy Map music. Hope its still the tried and true Uncharted Worlds

 

[gspec]

They look like androids.

 

[RAIDEN1]

Thing is for Bioware this is the best it will get when it comes to facial animations, unless they go FMV which they don't have the capital to do then these drawbacks is what you'll get unless they do something drastically different but we have another 3-5 year wait for that!

 

[BroBot]

Just tuned in. They didn't show character creation right?

 

[AllIsOneIsNone]

You'd think the devs of a game that is so focused on up-close personal interactions would find the freakishness of the faces unacceptable. How can I suspend disbelief with doll eyes and rubber mouths?

 

[DeadlyParasite]

Oh god big story spoiler in the dialogue wheel. I made a mistake quickly tuning in.

 

[Xando]

Love the Jetpack implementation

 

[FlutterPuffs]

edit: wrong thread, sorry!

 

[Jhoan]

The negativity in the Twitch chat is strong. I had to hide it. I think it looks solid. People are always going to complain about the facial animations.

 

[Sou Da]

Ha, they use all the ME1-2 squaddies pics for the species codex entries.

 

[cb1115]

combat continues to look great

 

[Harlequin]

Love the Jetpack implementation

Yeah, the jumping and climbing looks surprisingly fun.

 

[GenericBadGuy]

If the Kett can instantly fly ships to an area why would they completely ignore the Tempest?

 

[shinobi602]

The walking, running, jetpack animations look great.

 

[wildbite]

The walking, running, jetpack animations look great.

It would be great if we could zoom in on our character for more immersion. There was a mod for Inquisition and TW3 that let me control the camera distance.

 

[GenericBadGuy]

I like that the rather dull idea of scanning everything is balanced with flavor text for the items and comments from the crew.

 

[Garnox]

I'm still butthurt about nothing being at Pax South! Come on, San Antonio is just in Bioware Austin's backyard. 😭

 

[therealminime]

Did I hear him right?

ME1 had 80 characters you could talk to.

ME:A has 1200.

Did he say that? If so, wowza.

 

[cb1115]

"first things first, is there an item limit?"
"yeah, you can see it right there"
"oh, huh"

lmao

 

[GenericBadGuy]

Little too much time spent menu surfing for a preview I feel. If they are cutting out in 15 minutes I hope they get moving.

Edit: Flavor effects for profiles is a great touch.

 

[ironcreed]

Looks like a bigger, prettier and better playing Mass Effect with a whole new story to look forward to. Can't ask for more than that.

 

[Jhoan]

I can't believe there's Turian calibration coils. I see you Garrus! That's hilarious.

 

[ironcreed]

I like how they are implementing hostile environments. It's just a common sense addition.

 

[Coxy100]

God damn I need this game. Looks great - my first pre order since 2011...

 

[Bod]

Does anyone know how much you can customise your squad mates regarding giving them different weapons and armour upgrades etc.

 

[Sou Da]

well that's a shitton of spoilers

Are the assemblers supposed to look like walkers with rabbit ears?

 

[GasProblem]

Can't wait to explore all the planets. I'll be scanning everything.

I really want to see some console footage though.

 

[ironcreed]

The animations are not nearly as bad as they are being made out. And I have even joked around and poked fun myself. The game looks great.

 

[_DrMario_]

Man the faces and lip sync look so bad/weird.

 

[GenericBadGuy]

Edit: Wrong thread

So the MP stream is a few hours later?

 

[Ushojax]

Did I hear him right?

ME1 had 80 characters you could talk to.

ME:A has 1200.

Did he say that? If so, wowza.

Don't believe their lies. They probably count ME3-style eavesdropping as "talking" to NPCs.

 

[Trickster]

Not mine.

Oh god lol

 

[chaislip3]

Edit: Wrong thread

So the MP stream is a few hours later?

Yup two hours from now

 

[VpomRurd]

Did I hear him right?

ME1 had 80 characters you could talk to.

ME:A has 1200.

Did he say that? If so, wowza.

I believe he said ME3 had 670 ish characters.
