The computer and electronics super geek thread
eugimon replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I have, I've dropped my laptop off a couple of times and the turn around was 1 or 2 business days everytime. -
well, yeah. I was referring to the more recent conversation on the citadel and the relays. The bit with the normandy is really wonky no matter how you massage it.
-
ending makes complete sense, it's completely consistent with the mythology set up going all the way back to the first game. If there are any fans of classic science fiction, there's a lot of parallels with a lot of books, one of the most obvious being God Emperor of Dune with the Citadel/Reapers a kind of Leto II.

Ah Penny-arcade...
-
Completely different scenarios.
-
I do agree that the holo kind fits with that particular character. Her head was never really in the war
-
This just went out on facebook by the official Mass Effect 2 page.
-
yup, there's a LOT going on at the end of me3
-
-
I saw that pic on your stream, it's a gorgeous shot. I'd love an audi quattro one of these days.
-
I guess. Frankly, DA2 and now this BS with ME3 has really taken a lot of the shine off of Bioware for me.
-
those are great pics! That new audi lexus looks great. Not a fan of the interior though. Finally a lexus that doesn't look like a camry with a body kit.

I don't have a problem with that ending, if that's the "real" ending. I just have a problem, a HUGE problem if that ending turns out to be a paid DLC.
-
okay... i'm fine with the day 1 DLC, cuz it was basically fanservice. I'm fine with the ending, because I think it fits with the theme of the series. I'm fine with most of the choices being window dressing. I'm NOT okay with the idea of having to pay for the "real" ending, if that's what that tweet is getting at. If ME4 is going to pick up where 3 left off, I'll be there. But if there's a "shepard wakes up" DLC coming out in 6 months... frak that.
-
just an FYI, ME3 has a lot of conversation that follows the ME2 DLC character conversation models... no dialog tree, you just click on them and they say something interesting but keep clicking on them till they tell you to go away or start repeating themselves because there's a lot of conversations that go on and you'll miss it if you just click once and walk away

There's a bit of a demand for diesel engined cars in some parts of the US. They're popular with a lot of social conscious, green types who like to run them as bio-diesels. But the ones I've seen are all older diesel mercs that have been repurposed to be hipster mobiles after their doctor/lawyer/real estate agent owners gave them up for the latest gadget infested M badged BMW.

oh my, that's fantastic!

smaller, but not by much. I drove that volvo into college. But even with the little entry level compacts. They're huge compared to what they were 20 or 30 years ago. And yeah, I realize a lot of that comes from hauling around all the safety gear but it doesn't help that today's cars are designed for people who weight more and are wider than people 30 years ago. I mean, a kia optima has optional electric, heated and cooled electric seats... That has nothing to do with safety. I'm sure modern cars could easily weigh less without sacrificing safety if people were willing to have less plastic fluff all over the dash and doors, have manual seats, ditch the dual panoramic moon roofs, and so forth. As long as people view cars as status symbols, they're going to be loaded down with "status"
-
well, it's not just the safety features. Americans are bigger and so cars are bigger. Growing up, my parents owned a volvo something or other and I remember it was a boat. It was HUGE inside. But just the other day I was driving around in my car (which reviewers complain as being too small) and in front of me was that same model volvo and it looked like a toy car compared to my "undersized" modern car. And yeah, some of that size comes from packing in 30 air bags, pillars the size of elephant legs but it also comes from people wanting 19" wheels, lazy boy loungers for car seats, 30 cup holders and an AC that can cool down a walk in freezer at your local jamba juice.
-
they do build really efficient cars but really efficient cars are made out of soda cans and have a lawn mower engine so people would rather have power, luxury, comfort and power.

-
Having said that, after sitting with the ending... I like it. I have problems with the ending but I'm okay with it. I think it was very "true" to the themes setup in the games.
-
they won't fit. The chest plate is completely different between the v1 and v2 as is every other piece. The v2 isn't just the v1 with a new crotch, it's completely re-worked.
-
It's not just the dialogue I'm wondering about. Some of the characters are tied to some pretty big war assets, I wonder if those are just closed off to you if they're dead?

Not all the females.
