Anyone else have an immobility glitch?

I was having an absolutely fun time as the cabal vanguard and then I got downed by a brute and noticed my model vanished, leaving 2 green tubes on me.

I get respawned and I'm unable to move, move my camera or but I can shoot and use melee.

Just found out inferno grenades are damn powerful.

How have I never tried them before? Nor seen a lot of mention on discussion threads.

Inferno grenades + reager (incendiary ammo) is probably the fastest I've ever seen bosses melt.

Heres the Krogan Soldier build I run

https://kalence2.github.io/#23!3004525!!34O53364!A3ABG

1)Inferno grenades for max damage. You could go 4A but the radius seems overkill at that point.

2)Fortification for the increased damage protection and 30% power increase.

3)Carnage for self detonating fire explosions.

4)Last two trees are speced for shields and power damage.

Basically throw a inferno grenade at any enemy spawn -> carnage (for the fire explosion) -> reager (incendiary ammo)

Focus bosses like this, and they will go down very quickly.

Multiplayer DLC Help

Hi guys i've recently bought mass effect 3 2012 from ea hoping to play some multiplayer for old times sake, turns out i, like many others out there as far as i've seen don't have access to the free DLC, i've been looking for hours for a solution and tried everything possible, some of them seems to have solved the problem by getting their mass effect game updated to the deluxe edition minus the single player dlc but i can't, i've chatted with four EA help advisors and butted heads trying to explain to them the problem and the solution other player got to no avails. As a last desperate attempt i've downloaded a pirated mass effect game and copied the multiplayer dlc and it worked! problem is the game language changed to russian and i can't for the love of god change it back. Can someone help out a pour soul and upload the DLC_CON_MP1 to DLC_CON_MP5 folders in the english or italian language

Any builds for Human Engineer and Turian Sabotuer?

As the title says, I’d like any builds that let me cause damage while being a team player.

How does Tactical Cloak work?

Hi y'all, me3 coop veteran here, i came back to the PC version a few days ago with a bunch of friends and we are having a blast.

Its been 8 years or so since i played it last time in 360 and now that im more wise, i want to make better builds, the Female Quarian infiltrator was always one of my favourites so i want to know how does damage bonus with tactical cloak works.

Let's suppose i go into TC, and while i am invisible y throw 2 grenades which explode while i am invisible.

  1. Do these 2 grenades get a damage boost?
  2. If i throw 2 grenades which explode while i am invisible and then i shoot my claymore while invislbe will the shotgun do extra damage too?

Now let's suppose i am using the Asari Huntress

  1. If i pick level 6 "bonus power" for TC and use Dark Channel + Warp against an enemy, which power gets the TC damage bonus?
  2. Does Dark Channel get extra damage only while you are invisible or does it get an entire damage bonus for its duration as long as you use it while invisible?

Now let's go for the Salarian Infiltrator

  1. I noticed a while back that you can TC + Shoot + immediately use Proximity Mine, basically using 2 powers with only one cooldown, sometimes the mine explodes even before you turn visible, does the mine get a damage bonus?
  2. What happens if you throw the mine (or slower weapons like scorpion or venom) and THEN you turn visible and THEN the bulley/power hits the enemy, does it get TC damage bonus?

Thanks!!

For anyone having issues downloading Mass Effect 3 DLC now and in the future!

Hello, just dropping a post here because I've spent roughly the past 3 hours trying to get ME3 to download with all the DLC and not just Extended Cut. I read so many older threads about this so I wanted to put mine up for the next unfortunate googler trying to play ME3 multiplayer in 2024. Apparently this has been an issue ever since EA moved from Origin to EA app and a lot of the posts about this are 2 years old.

Just mentioning I previously tried: removing the license folder from %ProgramData%\Electronic Arts\EA Services, uninstalling with an uninstaller to remove stray files, installing ME3 with an old version of the Origin launcher which required me to find a shady workaround for the EA App pop-up and a few other things I can't even remember. None of these solutions worked for me and neither did talking to two EA help advisors.

Third time's the charm though. I specifically asked another EA help advisor if they could check that I actually had access to all the DLC for ME3 on their end (after explaining these are no longer sold and should be part of the base game now), they fiddled with my account for 2 minutes and then after relogging I was able to install all the DLC just fine!

Can't connect to lobbies when using controller mod on ME 3 mp

Is this normal? I assume not. I am running the mp version of the controller mod on PC so that I can play on my tv from my couch comfortably. I could go back to my desk if I wanted to but I really was hoping to get this mod working. Anytime I try to connect to a lobby I get kicked back to the main multiplayer screen and never actually connect in game with other people.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled both the game and the mod. Tried on both the EA app and on Steam same behavior. I just can't put my finger on why this would happen. verifying files didnt help either. all dlc is installed. Is this something anyone else has come across?

Vorch Engineer, I thought he was the worst vorcha, but he's not

One vorcha without a cheesy flamer. He is very fun, most effective against cerberus and geth, but will hold his own against collectors and reapers. TBH I always like flamer, vorcha soldier was, years back, one of the characters that helped me very much to get a hand on this game. But after becoming good player, I kinda thought Flamer makes things too easy. So recently I perfected vorcha engineer and wanted to share :)

https://kalence2.github.io/#30!3506535!!!6E5BC

Submission Net, 5 points, 4th and 5th evolution up (dmg, dmg&slow enemies)
Incinerate, 6 points, down, up, down (aoe, dmg, anti-armor)
Bloodlust, 4 points, down (regen)
Vorcha Resilience, 5 points, down, up (power dmg)
Fitness, 5 points, down, down (HP&shields)
At this point there is 8 skill points left, you can go bloodlust for extra power dmg, fitness for extra shields, vorcha resilience for either weight or weapon dmg or even for the last evolution on submission net - any will be good, depending on your style, BUT... fitness is not worth it imho, I would recommend bloodlust for more power dmg or decrease weapon weight (dont remember for which one I went ultimately, I think power dmg on bloodlust - reduced weight on shotguns and rifles would be great if you want a heavier weapon tho).

I tried several different variations and weapons and I found the Disciple is great weapon for this vorcha, combines decent firepower with small weight and high power cooldown. Obviously I structured this build for power dmg so weapon dmg is secondary, wide variety of weapons will work, just stay on the high power cooldown side. Pistols and smgs with power-mod attached were fun also (Talon, Hurricane with stability mod for exemple) but after several tries I prefer the Disciple, which is suprisingly accurate, have some workable range with a smart-choke and is punchy enough.

Net up to 5 points is still more than enough for any non-armored enemy including phantoms (just to make sure you are netting them while they are not in their bubble) which make dealing with them much easier, Still, slowing down armored enemies like Brutes or Dragoons is nothing to scorn at. Net makes a difference a lot, I once disliked that skill but honestly, I was so, so wrong. Netting collector captains, phantoms, cerberus specialists, slowing down brutes, pyros, primes, atlases, scions dealing dmg in the same time - good stuff.

Your standard cycle starts with Net, setting the target up for tech burst, followed up with 1 or 2 shots from your weapon, cooldown is done after les than 2 sec - hit with incinerate detonating tech burst and setting up fire explosion (to detonate this explosion you need some help from the team) - unload weapon untill power cooldown is done - if the target is still standing it means its armor guy like brute type, or you missed shots - reload weapon with reaload-cancel incinerate (or net if you need target in place). Rinse&repeat.

For the equipment I would recommend shield delay decrease (you have around 400 shields, buffing this will not help you as much as decreasing shield recharge delay) and weapon/power bonuses.

Vorcha has very quick dodge, IMHO one of the better dodges out there, vey fast, decently long - if you master it, with small shield recharge delay and hp regen you will become kinda tanky, quickly able to get out of line of fire, recharge in seconds and rejoin the fight. Bloodlust make you a bit faster which helps (combination with adrenaline mod is fun aswell and also makes you more tanky as a side-effect - if you move correctly that is).

Overall vorcha engineer has a great potential combining power dmg with nimble tankyness and suprising utility slowing down or netting dangerous enemies in place. Very versatile close range fighter, skiping around with superior vorcha dodge, lashing out with powers and finishing with shotgun to the face - you tear down any mooks before you can focus with team on the bosses.

Cerberus is the enemy of choice. You can net all but dragoons and atlases (still you will slow them down), tech bursts detonating with incinerate make shields gone and cerberus combat team without shields is just a bunch of mooks with different weapons. You tear them down like a little monster you are.

Geth will be a bit more dangerous cause of many stun-type attacks and more enemies you are unable to net properly (prime, pyro, bombardier), but otherwise you have big advantages and you should wipe the floor.

Against reapers or collectors you must be more careful, lot of heavy, armored enemies make your net and tech bursts from it a bit less useful - HOWEVER marauders and collector captains, especially possesed, are quite deadly and your net will work well against those, aswell as will deal damage to those pesky fu&*ing little skill-stopping swarms they produce. Against those enemies, focus on taking out mooks and slowing the bigger guys down. Bunschees and pretorians will inevitably make you move, but moving should not be troubling for you, run away from them, focusing only if you have support from your team, otherwise your job is to hunt mooks and isolate bosses.

Hope you find it interesting and helpful.
Cheers, cya battling for the Milky Way

Just got ME3 on steam for multiplayer

I like variety, and I was wondering if I could do good as any character, any class or if I should just go meta and pick the best of all classes to focus on.

My favorite thing I did on the 360 years ago was to do full melee krogan soldier with shotgun to avoid sync kills. I'm hoping that it's still viable or if I'm better off looking elsewhere.

I know gold and platinum pretty much force you to bring the best because of the insane difficulty, but still.

I'm very excited to try it out again after so many years! :)

Explosive rounds, almost as bad as using no ammo at all?

So after playing the game since launch I have to say every time I feel like giving them another chance they never fail to disappoint me.

Is there some unknown mechanics behind making them good or are they just awful?

Has anyone had an issue with the controller support mod where it scrambles your inputs?

I recently got a new controller, and since then I started having this issue where my dad inputs are all registering incorrectly.

I've tried the same controller on other games, and its fine. I've tried other controllers and it the same on all of them.

N7 Devastator Weapons question

How do you use the Devastaor Mode or The Hawk Missile Launcher for the N7 Devastator? When I push the buttons for them, nothing happens. The Devastator mode turns on but that's about it. I don't know what the Red screen is on the bottom right corner. And the missile launcher never fires.

ME3 or MEA? (PC)

Hey guys, I’ve been trying to decide which game to get. I played ME3 wayyyy back in the day and while I would again in a heartbeat, I get concerned that it’s dead on PC and that MEA may be the way to go instead. I could really use some insight on which one to grab, ideally from PC players who play both. I tried digging around a bit, and just see a lot of ME3 clips, some of them apparently on console, and I saw a lot of talk of there being an active 360 fanbase for ME3, but not much else on MEA or either for PC. Thanks again for any help in figuring out which one to grab.

Quick edit for spell check.

How to unlock certain race/class

I am getting back into ME3 co-op after an 11 year absence, but want to specifically get back into using the character I used when I first started playing - Geth Engineer.

I'm playing on PC now instead of console and was wondering how long it would take or what the fastest method to unlock this class would be.
