Thanks!


Yeah, I just got slapped in the face again with an unresolvable argument, despite having played with as much renegade as I could anyhow sensible cram into the character...
Screw that system... xD

And no, I'm not planning to buy them. That's a bit too much even for me, and I have the hoody.

This just out: The Firewalker Mission pack (nicknamed the Hammerhead) will be available on Tuesday March 23 for free on your activated Cerberus Network.
It was announced on Mass Effect's Facebook page.

WHEE!

Just as I was starting to suffer from the 'been there, done that' symptoms for excessive gaming. ^^

BioWare has announced a Sims-styled "Alternate Appearance Pack" for your Squad Members to be released on March 23rd. On a personal note, I do not like anything related to the Sims. Pay for new clothes? Absolutely not.

Made worse by the fact that it looks absolutely ridiculous.

[WeeRLegion]

I wouldn't mind a new outfit for Jack. Her current clothes just look pretty damn impractical.
But to pay for it?
C'mon. A load of silly new clothes is definitely the sorta stuff you give away with super secret cola-bottle codes or to all Cerberus members or something... xD


Wait. Has Thane finally realized that cleavage is for women? I'm so getting that pack the moment it comes out! : D

Spoiler

Or not. xP

I kind of like the alternate appearances actually. (Not sure what is Sims-like about them, but then I haven't played any recent version of Sims). They definitely address the ones that needed help the most:

1) Garrus: I can understand the scars being permanent, but why the hell is he forced to wear broken armor for the rest of the game? That irritates the hell out of me. They could've at least had his second, post loyalty mission armor fixed, but no, he's got TWO broken armors apparently.

2) Jack's new look is appropriate, I think, and much better than either of her current appearances. (I despise her first appearance, she's 99% naked with the upper body of an 8 year old boy covering her nipples with a rubber band. Eww.)

3) Thane, well, didn't really have a problem with his old look, but new look seems fine.

That said, I dunno that I'd pay for it.

I agree with this.

However it is ruined by those godawful sunglasses.

Glad to see I'm not the only one annoyed by what some would call a detail. I mean, I understand that when he leaves the med bay the first time, he's still wearing the armor shredded at the top, but don't tell me that he didn't take 5 minutes when on Illium or Omega to get new Turian armor, it's ridiculous. And there's just no making sense of the post-loyalty mission armor being damaged as well. *shakes her head*

Not only is it completely impractical for her to go around wearing nothing more than a rubber band, but I imagine that she'd get cold. That outfit is just ludicrous, I can't stand the sight of it either.

That being said, am *I* going to pay for extra outfits?... Probably not...

[Archmage Silver]

I agree on SuZe's vanilla outfit being ridiculous as well, but I don't think we should be the ones paying for BioWare's poor desing choices - they should fix those for free.
