Not having any issues with 1.05. Did you run a file check (repair function) after patching ? Good practice after any install or major update. Anything that big could easily have corrupted or missing files.
Just read the patch notes for muliplayer. Not sure if I read it right, seems like they are going to buff most of the bosses, and not fix any of the underwhelming weapons and abilities. Not sure who they have been talking to. It didnt address any of the performance issues, which I was hoping for as I'm getting really sick of being chucked out of every third match. I'm feeling a bit non- plused at this.
@shaggiedo I see no mention of any boost to the bosses O.o
Semi-auto assault rifles and pistols do get lower damage, but fire rate got fixed and get more ammo
Full-auto assault rifles and pistols get a flat damage per bullet bonus
I apologize in advance if this has been addressed already but "Task: Nomad Shield Crafting" bug hasn't been revolved, right? I still have it under additional task even though I've crafted everything for the Nomad. Also the Menu still shows the exclamations point even though everything has been reviewed, is that effecting anyone else as well? Another thing I see they removed " herbal entrepreneurs " side quest instead of fixing it, is this the same for everyone else?
I can't believe one of the first things in this thread isn't the broken melee?
I play a Krogan Vanguard as my main, who previously would always rank at least #2 on DPS, I logged in tonight to test changes. In a silver MP match, a level 5.. Yes, that's right, a level 5 beat me on DPS in a silver match.
The nerf to melee combat is atrocious and needs to be fixed. I don't mind duking it out with a critter with him hitting me back, it's one of the benefits of the charge regenning your shield. You expect to take damage, but can at least bring shields back up again when they start getting the better of you. Now, you hit them, they hit you, you hit them, they hit you, but you're interrupting each others melee attacks.
Seriously, I did more damage with my gunon a melee specced character. You broke it, guys.. Fix it, please, and soon.
Ugh..
Repost since no answer :
Since april 6 update (1.05) a new line was added to my "ongoing psychological profile" by Lexi :
"Perhaps i should note that you are more impulsive in the field than you are with your affection. Whatever that means - we can keep that between us".
What does that exactly mean ? Is it because i've refuse to Peebee her "relaxing moment in the pod" for a "with string relationship" ? This sentence is not clear enough.
Any one has the same ?
@Izrafelus Yeah I just noticed that too. Uh... a hint that the character not romanced yet? -- a wild guess.

That's weird because i've got a touch with every female that can be romanced by Sara (the journalist, Suvi, Peebee, Vera, and so on). Just Peebee that i refuse her "no string relation".
That only sentence put me in a "what did i have done wrong ?" situation ...

On the romances: it works like in the first three games: you can tell that some romances are more worked on and seem to have more impact than others. In the first games it was basically Liara, you could tell that was the romance they wanted you to choose, and in this one it's Peebee, Cora and maybe Jaal. At least it's three instead of one. The others feel like secondary options just like in the original games.
Liam should not be a "side" romance. At all.
Kaidan got a great romance in Mass Effect, as did Garrus.
Andromeda promosed plenty of "banging" and only what? Three characters got sex scenes in the entire game?
In the original games they all got a sex scene. This just feels lazy and undone. Sara Ryder should have at least one decent human male option. Which should probably be Liam since he is the only one who counts towards the achievement. They give us the first decent dark male romance option who isn't a cheater like Jacob, and then slap us in the face with a terrible incomplete romance. The character overall is amazing, the romance is so poor that its barely a romance at all.
All of the romances in the original, even the side romances had better sexy scenes and build up than this game has. I know they can do so much better.
First of all BW should patch all the bugs that makes the game unplayable for a lot of pleople (thankfully I haven't run into one - yet). And what I would love to see is an improved Menu. It drives me nuts the way it is now. Click here, search there, menu, submenues - never had something so confusing in a BW game before. I even have to check the completed quests when I want to get rid of the quest marks and my "Click X to mark as read" not working anymore. Please consider an improve.
After that - the romances. Well, sometimes I get the impression (and don't get me wrong, I love BW games) there is this thinking: Ok, let's make the straight male happy first. Give them a good romance and well, also enough f/f options because a lot of them love to see that, too. And this way the f/f faction is happy as well. Don't forget the m/m - oh wait, we did... but we'll correct that, promise!
But wait, wasn't there another faction? Hmm, who could that be?....... Ah yes, the straight females... but hey, most of the time we don't hear that much complains so they seem to be happy with whatever we give them. A Kaidan that get's magically bi in ME 3, an adorable Thane who, well... dies (and has no "real" sex" scene ). A Jacob who is an - sorry - a... ole. A great Garrus - thankfully even without a real "sex" scene. But well, the girls seems to be happy with it, they seem to be happy even without some "nice straight sex" or a well made romance at all. Four options, two of them human but either not straight or a looser. Two aliens (and no, I have nothing against alien romance but well, one of it dies and/or is in the "no sexy scene" cathegory). And now in ME:A? Wow... just one, Jaal. And who would have guessed? Again a alien... And somehow I got the impression you have problems to show naked men with all the "necessary assets". Why so? It seems not to bother you when it comes to the girls.
Please BW - don't pretent we do not exist. And we aren't a "negligible" faction that needs no attention. We want our piece of "cake", too. Even if there is just Liam - at least we want a adequate romance like for example the straight male Cora romance. Even if we have to wait two months for it.
Thank you.
Thank you. I feel like we straight females are a far afterthought for the reasons you mentioned. Well said.
