At least it sounds promising. I think and hope BioWare is aware that looks matter in a looter shooter. Even if they aren't at where they should be, that can be adjusted. As long as they react.

Guys. I just want to jump in and have fun with my friends in a looter shooter. Aside from loading screens, which we can deal with because we are local friends, what should I be concerned with?
We are pretty simple: we want fun combat scenarios and loot that facilitates a satisfying reward loop.
Yeah?

Thanks to all I did as suggested and my gear for as there!
You seem to get a lot of coin in the campaign. Now whether that continues post campaign remains to be seen, but the prices don't seem too unfair. The issue is that there doesn't seem to be a lot of cosmetics in the vanity shop and only epics at that as far as the highest level.
I wonder if legendary cosmetics are tied to this upcoming feature?
I railed into him after "that" mission, but still felt bad. I felt like a friend that was angry that he put himself in that kind of danger. I like that it actually gave me the option to cool off and stop shouting at one point. Came at the perfect moment.
Incoming fix where you have to finish the the entire Stronghold to get all the loot. Hahaha.
It sounds like once you do all the activities in your log, the only way to get coin is from doing Daily, Weekly, and Monthly challenges. Atleast for now.
The Legendary cosmetics does sound like it could be what this will be. Just wonder if its coming soon or if we have to wait for the Act 1 dlc stuff for it. He says they can hopefully talk about it next week, so I dont assume it will be in the day one patch.
I'm playing with my friends right now, and I find it a lot of fun. The masterwork loot I've gotten has been really cool. I got a gun that calls down lightning every 3-4 shots. Past that, I've been enjoying trying different ability combos on my Storm, which I enjoy thoroughly. I think the uncommon-epic inscriptions are more about synergy and are kind of boring, but after getting that masterwork rifle, I'm really interested to see what kind of loot shows up later on.
You get plenty of coin from Alliances too.
Me too! I loved it. I was mad because he put himself in danger, and it worked perfectly.
At least it's something that can be adjusted easily if need be. I bought the N7 vinyl with the coin it gave me, so that was nice. It'll build goodwill if EA and BioWare err on more consumer friendly approaches to cosmetic unlocks.
Well that tweet is from last week (the 16th) so when he says next week he means this week.
I too wonder what the plan is, because even during the E3 demos and whatnot they kept talking about all the cosmetic changes you could make and that no Javelin would look the same... There has to be some other way of obtaining cosmetics that isn't just what's on that little store now. Whether it be a new tab, or a different vendor, or drops, I doubt that this is it
I like that the Colossus will be able to have a shield up while reviving.
Anyone else on "X" noticing radically different performance? What I mean is yesterday when I was in the Bub area the screen tearing was horrid, I could even go to the map and see screen tearing. Tonight I noticed zero screen tearing in the hub area and even out in the world I barely detect it. It is really odd. Tonight when I grouped up with 2 others and did a pretty long mission it was flawless. No rubber banding, no disconnects basically zero issue. I up to 9 hours on my trial and today was the best experience so far with zero issues. Yesterday for the 2 hours I played had a lot of performance, screen tearing 3-4 disconnects but for the 3 hours or so today perfect.

Nice, thanks. I feel like it's a given that my flatmates and I try this out, and some fun loot-stomping with friends sounds good.
If you and your friends enjoy killing stuff and working together, the core gameplay loop will satisfy. I do recommend playing on Hard starting out. I think Normal is tuned a little too easy.
How did the game run on PS4 during the Beta?
Im playing on PC now and its a mess without an SSD. The load times are bad, but its the pop in thats really bothering me. I dont know if theres any settings I can adjust to fix this. I would rather play on PS4 when I get the full release.

So I hit level cap, got a few masterworks, and am somewhat satisfied with the time I spent. That being said, the last few story missions really, really dragged for me and while some of the "side" stuff was neat, the basic mission is really boring.
I'm not sure I'll be sticking around too much longer (I'll likely try out the patch), but I'm keenly interested to see how this evolve and develop over the next year or so.

Oh for sure. I kinda gleaned that from watching some vids, but it's good to hear it from a somewhat closer source.
I locked the FPS at 60 and that has really helped. It was a runaway train of high temp shenanigans before that.
I'd agree, but all the hot fixes are for things that never should have been in the game to begin with.
What rig you running, if you don't mind my asking?
I mean, this a question better-suited to the other thread, but I am being lazy.
8700K/2080Ti FE/32GB RAM/SSD
2560x1080/144 Ultrawide
With no limit I was getting 80ish under heavy strain in massive fights and 120+ everywhere else; a lot of stuff was weirdly uncapped. Temps hovered around 77-79 for most of it.
Everything on ultra. Waiting on one of those detailed settings videos before messing with that.
I can see it both ways. Better that they let you keep the stuff in case you need to quit due to a bug or something that keeps you from advancing
Cosmetics tied to achievements are unbelievable. Why? Everyone will always get the same armor. SO THERES NO DIFFERENCE. There are no rare drops "Ohhh, where did you get that??", its an achievement that everyone will get eventually.
Also, I broke my build, I can now hold E forever and it will never deplete the skill.

Big fan of them pushing stuff like this but also being somehow unable to push other known/finalized fixes prior to the Premier launch. Big, big fan.
Biowares loot system was built to be exploited. There should have been varying loot tables per content, escalation of loot as you proceed through multiple challenges, etc.
My 1070 is getting pounded on Ultra and High preset. Seriously I hope we see some game performance improvements on Friday.
Nah, because if you end up playing with randoms that are solely running the stronghold for the chest exploit it becomes unfun. Especially since you can't solo those.
The game is a complete mess bugwise. Losing your loot because you quit would just sap the energy of so many people.
The whole loot system is fucked up which is why you're seeing people farm or drop after the first chest. It makes zero sense to do anything above GM1 due to not only how hard it is but how long enemies take to go down. It makes much more sense to do exploits than the proper way.
This is not even like a loot cave situation where something is clearly not working as it should. This is how they designed the system from the ground up to be.
It boggles the mind.

Trying to run at 1440p60 Utra or High preset gives me dips as low as in the 40s. FT Taris has horrible stuttering too. I had to resort to removing motion blur completely just so it won't give me a headache.
They had 5 years to think this through and this is what they come up with.
Same here but I changed it from fullscreen to borderless and my frames are great now, fullscreen I'm in the 30-40, borderless for some reason sticks to 54-60fps.
Not sure what is causing it tho.
