[Suggestion] Mass Effect: Andromeda - BRE (Bioware Remastered Edition)

Heya guys !

I know you read BRE and you started to panic or struggle yourself with your beer but it's not about a Battle Kid Royal.

Problems + suggestions  so far i know

- Frost MISTAKE Engine the biggest bad choice for RPG games,

- Profile Infiltrator + sniper weapon = dead since ME3,

- Not enough Armors (Honestly ME2 was so good for armor),

- Not enough customization for weapons,

- Price is too high for any item,

- Training and Freedom classes are two bad concepts (But mix Incinerate + Singularity is fun),

- Ryder customization is poor + Frost MISTAKE Engine,

- Using Mass Effect Archive for tapestry is a joke and i don't know if the tapestry is really working (Dragon Age Keep like),

- Bad timing acting > Yeah it happens Fem Ryder depends of the choice of the answer she can talk normally and sometimes screams, (example habitat 7 when you help Alec to open the door the first sentence Ryder yells at Alec and Alec talks normally)

- Bad music during conversations > When i talk to Tann there is a music who could be use for important death or planet destruction not because Director Tann is talking,

- Tempest is so empty only 14 people (if you count your ryder) Normandy 1 and 2 were full of people, the second was in ME3,

- BAD Optimization before i finish EOS 60+ FPS after EOS, Lexi drops fps, any planet drops fps, when i go to choose a planet fps drops WHAT THE HELL ???,

- Only 3 missions for apex i mean 3 bronze / 3 silver / 3 gold, we need more missions for apex teams per day,

- 4 different answers to improve Ryder's personality > What about come back with Paragon and Renegade it was better and not confusing,

- Romance scenes are like Pornhub.... Remember when M/F Shep banged in ME 1 to 3 all those romance scenes were erotic,

- Characters personalities = One to blame > Liam is like Kaidan x4 ready to be nuked for being boring asf, Suvi (i wanted to romance her) why she is scientist religious Am i the only one who think two words who are the contrary ?, Also Peebee is a mix of Sera for personality and Liara for knowledge about ancient technology she is fun but i feel like she has a double personality...

- No tempest upgrades > i wish i could upgrade the tempest's weapons, visual,

- Mod the game = Wish Bioware could let us to mod the game without being advertise because modders do better job than a BW Team

- Bad dialogues sometimes > ME 1 to 3 were better, remember that conversation in hellium's bar between a human, turian an salarian about having sex and salarian said "we need to sign a contract to do it"

- Bad sequence of dialogue > When there is an interruption because someone or something is coming there is 5 seconds of wind or when you have to choose an answer and the npc is talking if you select one answer the npc will be cut by your answer (ex: When Alec says "I'm glad someone does explora-")

- Bad voice acting > Some know the character they play, the other were recruited because BW needed to rush because EA brutally forced them (i miss ME Actors >.<)

- Customize the nomad > Not only the color but also tyres and improve mods some are good the other are made when we don't need actually

- Drack looks like a potato who was forget for 5 months.... Don't tell me he grows up a beard because for me that reminds me a potato i didn't touch for a long time

- Krogan are badass when they fight so why make a fight scene like two 2 years old children who fight ?

- Foster Addison, stupid *beep* she is worst than Udina >.<

- Tann, i know Salarians are like "we know better than you because we are smart" then why Tann who is a salarian isn't smart ?

- "Why did you join the initiative ?" all people answers are "Because i saw the light or Jien's dream was so incredible" how bout some good answers next time SAM

- Need better HAIR style god damn what the hell are those garbage,

- Need better tattoos,

- Need better eyes,

- Need better faces presets, dimples and freckles, faces are so ugly i mean not the origin but i feel like i'm playing someone who didn't eat for centuries or a Vegan who needs to eat MEAT !!! (Remember the elf in DAI ??? i had to use mod to make my female elf cute),

- Need Mass Effect Tapestry needs to work when we load during character creation,

- Need to customize Alec and Ellen Ryder,

- Better makeup please this is not a circus game !!

- Better facial expression,

- Need tears (You know when you cry or laugh so hard, Do you know what are EMOTIONS ?),

- Better scanner effect sometimes the scanner doesn't work i have to turn off and turn on again to be sure i can scan (IT Crowd),

- Do children exist or only Adults ?

- Gil is boring and keep arguing with Kallo i mean remember when Joker didn't argue with the engineers ? completely harmonized,

- Hi i'm jaal an angaran i join if you want... Joining too fast care to let us time before having any guy joining fast ?

- need to balance each armor because Deep Space armor once you have it you won't play your previous or next armor,

- Profile Explorer = trash it's like saying "HEY casu you want to be strong without doing anything use the profile explorer",

- NO MORE DOWNGRADE between E3 to release !

Good things so far i know:

- Vetra, Cora, Lexi, Kandros (Nyreen's cousin... i miss Nyreen), Kesh, 

- Exploration,

- Sudoku Remnants game

My suggestions:

1 - Bioware take your baggages and leave EA please

2 - Use Unity / Unreal Engine / Cry Engine / Red Engine

3 - Name the game Mass Effect: Andromeda - Bioware Remastered Apologies Edition

4 - The price of this ME:BRA Edition for people who paid Andromeda before the release should be:
- 30 euros for game only
- 45 euros for game + dlcs you have promised + an apology dlc because you didn't react when EA pressed you so brutally

4.1 - The price of this ME:BRA Edition for people who paid Andromeda after the release to 2019 should be:

- 50 euros for game only

- 70 euros for game + dlcs

5 - Sale the game on GOG / Epic Game Store / Origin if you want to go with your EX / Steam if you want to lose your dignity like 90% of indie devs who don't touch 100% of what they made

6 - Make ORIGIN compatible with GNU/LINUX > You don't know how WINEESYNC is so strong to keep playing at 60 fps without big drop !

You arrive at the end of this post i have imagined this kind edition Bioware could do, i know it's a big work but before EA use the force to fail Dragon Age: The Dread Wolf Rises please save Mass Effect Andromeda by doing a Remastered Edition for EA's cruelty about Bioware.

It's not Bioware to blame (well kinda because Casey keeps saying everything is fine) but EA you kill everything you touch now you have to respect Bioware and Players if you don't want to be sacked by us.

|----|-------|-------|-------| 5 years of Andromeda's development

     |----|-------|-------|-------| 5 years of Anthem's development for an destiny x warframe game....

EA and Ubisoft are the same for killing ambitious games !

So now time for you to stop listening BIG bosses who put their money in Wall Street and who think they know what's good for players !

Bioware team is good to make RPG games not online game (see how fall swtor with the sub / f2p model + Cartel Shop), i forced myself to play Kotor 1 and 2 then i realize why people talked about kotor and loved them in Dromund Kaas, i love Mass Effect 1 to 3 (i didn't finish Andromeda because i failed my character like on a mmo), Dragon Age origin to inquisition even Swtor i love it if republic classes' stories were better (Sorcerer powa).

So Stop asking Bioware to make something they don't know !

  • A lot to tackle here but I'l address a few things.

    Characters: pretty much a complaint of everyone and one of the real downfalls of the game as they weren't nearly as strong as the original trilogy. At this point you should be able to romance any character.

    Tempest: while I agree customization would be nice, given it's strictly an explorer ship with no weapons and you don't control it outside the galaxy map, upgrades are kinda pointless. I would like to see a lot more done with controlling the ship though but that's been the case since the original. Also, the Tempest is smaller than even the original Normandy and is meant for exploration. It makes sense a small exploration ship has far less crew than a warship.

    Nomad: yeah, half the mods were worthless and I wish it had weapons and a turret like the Mako did.

    Armors: I agree there needs to be more and they need to drop inherent traits; just let them be aesthetic parts and add the mods as you see fit. ME2 did have the bet aesthetic customization and about the only RPG feature the game got right. I disagree with the Deep Space Explorer armor; once I got high enough level/research I dumped it for the Hyperguardian and never went back.

    Weapons: I was fine with customizations for the most part but more wouldn't hurt. They definitely need to add aesthetic customization for them though.

    I didn't think item costs were bad at all. They may be hard to scrounge up at the start but that's any RPG.

    Ryder customization was definitely subpar, and I don't know why there were so few choices for outfits. And yes, the hair choices were bad.

    Drack looked fine to me.

    I believe there were kids but they were unfreezing people based on necessity/priority. Kids who just take up resources, which are scarce when starting, are going to be low on that list.

    I don't think there will be anymore content for ME:A aside maybe a remastered edition for next gen, but even then it would just be better graphics and no new content. EA abandoned the game way too fast after they severely hampered it's development.

  • I agree with you. They really dropped the ball on MEA. Tann needed a kick in the teeth, because he though he was so much better than anyone else. Liam also needed a kick in the backside for almost getting Ryder killed while on a rescue mission. I also like Vetra ( you never see a Turian  out of armor, except in ME3 when Garrus was at the bar with Shepard.As for the others they are ok. I too miss Nyreen Kandros. I've been playing the Mass Effect Trilogy since the beginning and they could use a little touch up here and there. But MEA needs a lot of work, the Tempest needs weapons, it can't run from a fight all the time, as for the Nomad it too needs weapons running away all the time does not help.

    Unreal Engine makes a lot more sense because that's what they used for the trilogy. CryEngine could also work, but the studio has no experience with it.

    REDengine is not for sale, as far as I'm aware. That said, BioWare and CD Projekt Red always had a good relationship, and The Witcher ran on BioWare's Aurora engine, so who knows.

  • I don't really agree the Tempest needs weapons; its a stealth exploration ship after all. And since you don't control it beyond the Galaxy map, what would be the point? Besides, other than slightly affecting the final mission in ME2, the upgrades didn't matter at all. Unless you can actually start engaging things with the ship (which they should've done a number of games ago) it would just be an unneeded system.

    perhaps at the most an option for some custom noseart for the Tempest. Also would like to board the Tempest without leaving the planet/base (but I understand that is a loading screen basically)... really what is lacking is a turret for the Nomad... or at the very least a telescope that allows you to tag far off enemies.

  • Nose art would actually be nice for both the Tempest and Nomad. The eyes and teeth from an A-10 Warthog would look pretty cool.
