Mass Effect: Andromeda - 3D Vision Fix (3D Vision Partial-fix released)
5 / 27
[quote="murilladas"]i still hope that one partner help you to fix the remaning problems with CS. The game is not relased yet in EU, I think they will contact you soon. I'm expecting this game for years... im so sorry but i cant help with this problem but I repeat that I can buy the game for the shared account if someone needs it ...

You can fix the galaxy map in surround or need patch from bioware??
Your patience and persistence are admirable...Thanks :))
[/quote]
I looked at the galaxy map cluster problem... I can't figure it out why it doesn't work in Surround. Everything works perfectly except the damn prompt doesn't appear... :(
Is not a major thing! Scanning, going from planet A to planet B works, just changing Solar Systems (clusters) seems broken. Easies workaround is change to 1 screen resolution, select the cluster, go back to Surround.
I haven't tried it, but I think switching from Fullscreen to window Mode (while keeping Surround) should also work around this issue;)
Yeah, I know is not out in the EU yet;) I use a VPN to South Korea to start the game ^_^.

Glad too hear the multiplayer is fun, that's what I mainly played in ME3 soooo.... Haven't had a chance to try as the game isn't officially released here.
Good to see you are still looking for support somehow, If you run our of people to help give me a bell, I am just particular busy with lame Real life shit atm, and i'm still slowly learning stuff.

MP really is fun. Unfortunately it crashes often. But this could also be the trial version. Let's hope thex fixed the issues with full game.
Don't worry with the 3D fix. Take your time. If it's not possible, we just skip this one in 3D. Actually I still have to play ME 1 - 3 in 3D. Played the third one 20 hours, but lost interest since the missions got very unfair and confusing. ;)

Same footage seems to be all over the internet:) While true;) and funny, this is not a bug;)
Actually, there is NO MOCAP for face animations in this game. except for some lip sync they slapped on top of the model.
This reminds me of some fellow students a while ago who were learning character animation and rigging ;))
Probably all their animators are freshly graduates ;))
Ironic no?:) Bioware is no more...

[quote]This is NOT Mass Effect! Stick to the original trilogy... This is just some crap with a Mass Effect name on it... (I actually believe ME3 had the ending just right, so I am not one of those bashing Bioware - but this game is pretty much abysmal... Story is worse then Risen 3 FFS, as is not focused or tied together... The whole game feels like it was made in "chunks" actually...)[/quote]
I was hoping things would be different, and I hate to say it, but i kinda have to... Told you so. Bioware was gutted by EA a long time ago. The only thing that the current Bioware has in common with the Bioware of the golden days is the name only. Now they're just some shitty developer with a ton of money pumped into it by EA with the Bioware name slapped onto it... just like this mediocre game that received tons of funding and had the Mass Effect name slapped onto.
*Off topic*
If you're itching to play a scifi rpg I'd highly recommend Nier-Automata. This game wasn't even on my radar because I've been somewhat disappointed in Jrpgs over the past few years, Final fantasy being the main culprit. I'm glad i picked it up though, it's been a blast to play. Has very solid gameplay mechanics and a pretty interesting story and world. My main gripe about it is that the engine seems a bit dated. There's lot's of texture and geometry popin, but this can kind of be forgiven since it's a seamless world with no load times. The ambient occlusion effect is also pretty bad, it's rendered at a really low res. i'm also not a huge fan of some of the art design (why the hell is battle droid wearing a dress with shoulder pads), but that's just personal opinion, and I'm really being nitpicky about these things. Either way it's a ton of fun to play, i sunk 15 hours into it this last weekend. It's also almost perfect in 3d vision after i fixed the shadows. I posted my WIP in the forums maybe someone else can help fix the few remaining issues.
Cheers!

Well great, game comes out and now it won't even start in 3dvision right and OOM crashes everywhere.. WTF In the trial it was working for me flawlesly with Helifaxs Battlefront profile...
Hah after my initial rant, I saw the comparisons put up between the actual female model they used for Sarah and the in game model compared to the male version. The male version is almost the spitting image of the model, while the female version was clearly made uglier, and looks nothing like her.
This is what you call hypocrisy folks.
Ok seems this game now has some memory problems, you have to give it a huge paging file to prevent crashes. I gave mine 16gig or so and it settled down.

murilladas has generously donated a key for Mass Effect Andromeda - thanks!
It's ready to use, just be sure to check the Origin notes at the bottom of the document before doing so.
After spending more time in game and seeing other reviews I can finally say this.
The game is not BAD. It does feel like is made by Bioware. It uses the BW formula everywhere.
Once you get to EOS and beyond it picks up.
Why everyone feels bad about the game is:
Probably the ONLY game in Bioware History that doesn't start with a BANG and an event to pull you IN the story!
Here it stars SOOO SLOOW and first 3-4 hours lots of useless dialogues and so on... If you are patient and get "INTO" the game it starts to pick up!
So, Writing and PACE is sooo damn slow. On top of these we have those animations, which are the MAIN thing you see and experience as the actual game COMES much later! The Prologue could be cut down by 75% and make that INTRO Bang! (Remember how Me2/Me3, DA:0, DA:I starts? It invests you in the story very fast).
Here is like... "Why should I even care.." You start caring when you start playing EOS though;)
Probably if the voice actors and animations were top notch this slow introduction might have worked.
Secondly is the overall theme of the game! You are an EXPLORER and CIVILIAN! You are not a freaking N7 Top of the Military Career Soldier of High Rank (that has huge missions and responsibilities). You are just a "kid" who can barely follow his N7 dad's physical footsteps. I agree the moment your father responsibilities fail on you should be marked in a moooooore significant way. Sadly, is filled of those horrible animations and you want to skip it as fast as possible.
Once I understand all these problems and that the game is an EXPLORATION game not a COMBAT/SOLDIER story game, I restarted the game. Very surprised that the 2nd time the experience was way more enjoyable!!!
Also, a lot of people fails to say, but the diversity of gameplay elements is big in the game. Like a proper Bioware Game. Gameplay is not linear at all.
Bottom line, DON'T EXPECT the BANG and the AWE of the original Mass Effect Trilogy! This doesn't mean IS A BAD GAME. IS NOT!
It's a DIFFERENT take/view on the Mass Effect universe;)
PS:
Some of the environments and areas are awesome and would be EVEN stupendous in 3D Vision!
If we manage to get a 3D Vision fix, I would recommend playing it JUST TO SEE IT! CM mode works pretty good but not as proper geometry 3D ;)

I didn't jump in on this thread right away for the fear that I just wasn't getting Andromeda, and wasn't able to see the glaring flaws that were being reported by others. But, after a couple of hours in the game, I think it is solid and entertaining... and looks great in CM using The Witcher 3 profile.
Does it reinvent the genre or take Bioware to the mythical "next level?" No, but it is certainly a game that deserves to be experienced and that is a solid "fix" for those who enjoy a good space opera.
A bit of editorializing: I have been in the video game industry, in various roles, for over 25 years. While core gamers have always been a critical bunch, the advent of social media and its evolution to an almost oppressive level has certainly made the critical eye of today's gamer that much more demanding and vociferous.
For me, it is easier just to ignore the noise and trust my own gaming instincts. I just want to play and get deeply involved in a world - whether, in recent weeks, that is a goblin's (Styx), an android's (Nier) or a space explorer's (Andromeda.) I don't much care which one is perceived as better, worth more time or even worth the $$, or if it is even as good as the last in the series (is there really such a thing as a "bad" God of War, Uncharted, Batman: Arkham, Dishonored, etc.?) I just want to enjoy the variety and entertainment offered by each in its own unique way.
Oh... and do it in Stereo 3D of course :-)

BTW - in terms of perceived value and the cost of a game in 2017... a little perspective.
The day after I unwrapped the Colecovision that I received for Christmas, 1982 from my parents, I went shopping with my Xmas $$ to find another game (loved Zaxxon and Donkey Kong, but they weren't going to cut it for very long.)
What I found? Cosmic Avenger (a Defender clone) for $52. That was almost 35 years ago. At 4% average inflation per year, that same game would retail for over $120 in 2017... a game that had a handful of short levels and that was played solely to better somebody's high score.
Just something to think about when we complain about the high cost of gaming and the per hour value when we've just purchased a Steam/Origin/Uplay key for a 60-100 hour game like Andromeda from Green Man Gaming for $47!

I looked at the galaxy map cluster problem... I can't figure it out why it doesn't work in Surround. Everything works perfectly except the damn prompt doesn't appear... :(
Is not a major thing! Scanning, going from planet A to planet B works, just changing Solar Systems (clusters) seems broken. Easies workaround is change to 1 screen resolution, select the cluster, go back to Surround.
I haven't tried it, but I think switching from Fullscreen to window Mode (while keeping Surround) should also work around this issue;)
Yeah, I know is not out in the EU yet;) I use a VPN to South Korea to start the game ^_^.

I was hoping things would be different, and I hate to say it, but i kinda have to... Told you so. Bioware was gutted by EA a long time ago. The only thing that the current Bioware has in common with the Bioware of the golden days is the name only. Now they're just some shitty developer with a ton of money pumped into it by EA with the Bioware name slapped onto it... just like this mediocre game that received tons of funding and had the Mass Effect name slapped onto.
*Off topic*
If you're itching to play a scifi rpg I'd highly recommend Nier-Automata. This game wasn't even on my radar because I've been somewhat disappointed in Jrpgs over the past few years, Final fantasy being the main culprit. I'm glad i picked it up though, it's been a blast to play. Has very solid gameplay mechanics and a pretty interesting story and world. My main gripe about it is that the engine seems a bit dated. There's lot's of texture and geometry popin, but this can kind of be forgiven since it's a seamless world with no load times. The ambient occlusion effect is also pretty bad, it's rendered at a really low res. i'm also not a huge fan of some of the art design (why the hell is battle droid wearing a dress with shoulder pads), but that's just personal opinion, and I'm really being nitpicky about these things. Either way it's a ton of fun to play, i sunk 15 hours into it this last weekend. It's also almost perfect in 3d vision after i fixed the shadows. I posted my WIP in the forums maybe someone else can help fix the few remaining issues.
Cheers!

Hah after my initial rant, I saw the comparisons put up between the actual female model they used for Sarah and the in game model compared to the male version. The male version is almost the spitting image of the model, while the female version was clearly made uglier, and looks nothing like her.
This is what you call hypocrisy folks.
Ok seems this game now has some memory problems, you have to give it a huge paging file to prevent crashes. I gave mine 16gig or so and it settled down.

The game is not BAD. It does feel like is made by Bioware. It uses the BW formula everywhere.
Once you get to EOS and beyond it picks up.
Why everyone feels bad about the game is:
Probably the ONLY game in Bioware History that doesn't start with a BANG and an event to pull you IN the story!
Here it stars SOOO SLOOW and first 3-4 hours lots of useless dialogues and so on... If you are patient and get "INTO" the game it starts to pick up!
So, Writing and PACE is sooo damn slow. On top of these we have those animations, which are the MAIN thing you see and experience as the actual game COMES much later! The Prologue could be cut down by 75% and make that INTRO Bang! (Remember how Me2/Me3, DA:0, DA:I starts? It invests you in the story very fast).
Here is like... "Why should I even care.." You start caring when you start playing EOS though;)
Probably if the voice actors and animations were top notch this slow introduction might have worked.
Secondly is the overall theme of the game! You are an EXPLORER and CIVILIAN! You are not a freaking N7 Top of the Military Career Soldier of High Rank (that has huge missions and responsibilities). You are just a "kid" who can barely follow his N7 dad's physical footsteps. I agree the moment your father responsibilities fail on you should be marked in a moooooore significant way. Sadly, is filled of those horrible animations and you want to skip it as fast as possible.
Once I understand all these problems and that the game is an EXPLORATION game not a COMBAT/SOLDIER story game, I restarted the game. Very surprised that the 2nd time the experience was way more enjoyable!!!
Also, a lot of people fails to say, but the diversity of gameplay elements is big in the game. Like a proper Bioware Game. Gameplay is not linear at all.
Bottom line, DON'T EXPECT the BANG and the AWE of the original Mass Effect Trilogy! This doesn't mean IS A BAD GAME. IS NOT!
It's a DIFFERENT take/view on the Mass Effect universe;)
PS:
Some of the environments and areas are awesome and would be EVEN stupendous in 3D Vision!
If we manage to get a 3D Vision fix, I would recommend playing it JUST TO SEE IT! CM mode works pretty good but not as proper geometry 3D ;)

Some of the things there I can agree with;) Like let the game to develop and start ;) (Very very slow start-up) ;))

Does it reinvent the genre or take Bioware to the mythical "next level?" No, but it is certainly a game that deserves to be experienced and that is a solid "fix" for those who enjoy a good space opera.
A bit of editorializing: I have been in the video game industry, in various roles, for over 25 years. While core gamers have always been a critical bunch, the advent of social media and its evolution to an almost oppressive level has certainly made the critical eye of today's gamer that much more demanding and vociferous.
For me, it is easier just to ignore the noise and trust my own gaming instincts. I just want to play and get deeply involved in a world - whether, in recent weeks, that is a goblin's (Styx), an android's (Nier) or a space explorer's (Andromeda.) I don't much care which one is perceived as better, worth more time or even worth the $$, or if it is even as good as the last in the series (is there really such a thing as a "bad" God of War, Uncharted, Batman: Arkham, Dishonored, etc.?) I just want to enjoy the variety and entertainment offered by each in its own unique way.
Oh... and do it in Stereo 3D of course :-)

The day after I unwrapped the Colecovision that I received for Christmas, 1982 from my parents, I went shopping with my Xmas $$ to find another game (loved Zaxxon and Donkey Kong, but they weren't going to cut it for very long.)
What I found? Cosmic Avenger (a Defender clone) for $52. That was almost 35 years ago. At 4% average inflation per year, that same game would retail for over $120 in 2017... a game that had a handful of short levels and that was played solely to better somebody's high score.
Just something to think about when we complain about the high cost of gaming and the per hour value when we've just purchased a Steam/Origin/Uplay key for a 60-100 hour game like Andromeda from Green Man Gaming for $47!
