"Other minor calibrations and fixes, including some instances of crashing"

 

I really don't like this kind of patch notes. This gives no real information.

 

For example: ME2 (PC) basically dies if you click on the quickbar, and this is a known issue since the original. Is this fixed in these "minor calibrations and fixes"...? Because right now it looks like that irrelevant fog effects and red eyes took priority to game crashes.

 

Or on the topic of achievements: a complete list of affected and now-fixed achievements would have been appreciated.

 

Also, the credit carryover should have been slightly more, since this change just re-introduces the problem of not being able to buy all upgrades during the first playthrough. I agree that it had to be changed since credits had no meaning in the launch state, but I'd have still slightly topped the original carryover rates.

 

 

Edit: That being said, I do appreciate that BW keeps working on MELE, even if it's "just" a remaster.

Are you sure the 100k import from ME1 isn't enough to buy everything in ME2 in one playthrough?

@woosiest

I know that you have to play it tight with planet scanning for example. Especially if you are new to the game and the scanning system, you might end up burning a lot of credits on fuel and probes, while you'll never use that many mineral resources.

I don't have exact statistics on required credits / maximum credits earned, but I do remember being short on money throughout the game, and even failing to get some 75k upgrades on a completionist playthrough.

 

So you might be able to get everything, but it is really easy to fail.

 

Edit:

With all downloadable content installed and completed, coupled with level 60 import bonuses and the bonuses from previously completing a Mass Effect 2 playthrough, it is possible to purchase everything in the game including the cabin accessories such as model ships and fish.

 

This is what I've found on ME Wiki. So yea, pretty damn strict circumstances.

@ediskrad327 Achievements aren't unlocking after loading save, so I guess the only "fix" is replaying the game and unlocking them again. Not happening.

Too far past that point, entirely disappointing.

This patch has broken me3 I'm roughly halfway through the story and have just lost my characters levels and the character has been reset to default Shephard rather then my created character @EA_Mako

Patch is not 18GB+, It verify the existing install when it starts. After the verify, the actual download is only 5.85GB, not surprised as those cut scenes fix can be quite large.
