Getting closer to release...not close enough though [Shifty] Anyway thought we could use a general discussion thread about this. So far only small little snippets of info have been released, here's some recently released gameplay footage www.gametrailers.com/... and it looks pretty good.

Really hanging out for this game, already have a pretty good ME2 game save ready to be imported with all team members still alive, even tempted to play though it all again for that super perfect file :P

The noise they make freaks me out when I'm sneaking around on the galaxy map :E

I was hoping that they would maybe have coop based rush or attack objective maps, not just sit here and kill everyone in this certain area

It's horde mode with objectives.

Every couple waves you get an objective like:

-Secure the 4 four data terminals
-They send in 2-4 of the stronger enemies to take down
-Clear the LZ

They make sure you move around the map as you're playing, so you can't just pick a spot next to an ammo box and camp there as a team, you need to stick together and move around if you wanna pass the first 10 waves.

I'm still kind of a big deal in the Capital Wasteland.

I tried that and then a mech came and made me move...I mean run like a bitch :P

We should get some games nights going with this online mode.

I fear not mechs. I SMG them in the canopy and steal the mechs [MOG]

I'm surprised how many people didn't know you can do that =_=

It is. I didn't even know you could steal them at first, I just shot at it and heard glass cracking and I was like "I wonder if..."

And lo and behold, glass broke.

If you do too much damage to the mech before breaking the canopy and killing the pilot you can't get in, it's a bit hard to get.

Also, I'll play with you tonight Koji. Add me on Origin. Kerosanak ^_^

Yay~ My Origin is Yahaku~ I'll add ya when i get home either way [Derp]

I'ma face desk if I DC at wave 10 more than twice [Rage]

Edit: Wait wut, if you kill the pilot you can't get in? But I guess you can't kill the pilot without destroying the mech?

Once you break the canopy glass, you have to kill the pilot to be able to get in, but you have to be accurate about hitting him otherwise you hit the actual canopy and it does more damage. I'll try to fraps a video of me doing it ^_^

Oh I don't think I ever broke the glass then.

What happens when the mech you hijack blows up from taking too much damage (evil)

Because by the time the mech is down, you've already basically killed everyone else, and you just use it to pick people off. [Derp]

Does it carry over to the next way or does it asplode and you're left mechless again.

I don't think you can get them in multiplayer, I was trying just then. Must only be in single player.

Because the canopy didn't even crack, but we took them down pretty fast so it was hard to tell.

EDIT: Just looked it up, you can't hijack in MP.
