The Expansion pass is €35 in-store if bought with the game, normally €45-€60 depending on who you believed

The expansion pass is €35 on psn too, which is good. A lot of confusion over how much it would cost in Euro as it costs $35/£35 in the US and UK, which being £35 would normally make it €50 in the Euro zone.

Bah I keep getting disconnected because it's telling me my internet isn't strong enough, never had a problem with the beta or other games. Using one of those damn TP-Link boosters, anyone know how to configure them for games?

They shouldn't matter for games or not for games, well the one I had didn't.. I stopped using the extenders and instead got a set of Home Plugs, they work extremely well if possible I would pick up a set.

Is it more PvE or PvP focused? Very tempted to pick it up on the PS3.

Can be either or. PvE is the main storyline really and focus but there is instanced PvP where it's two teams against each other in various game modes. Feels like Halo which is a good thing. Not sure about world pvp which might become more apparent further into the game.

No sign of my copy yet, Amazon not offering tracking on super free, absolutely ****ing itching to go at this big time. Really enjyoed the beta.

Most of them are for Emblems, Re-Skins, and some sort of cards (like collectors things, or maybe like the cards in Rage, i dunno)

It's only my 2nd time getting it TBH, I don't make a habit of it, but as you can tell I was more money than sense at 9am

Yeah they are dead easy to use, I use them on PC, they are like having your console or PC connected directly to your router via an ethernet so you're not using Wifi at all

Ah right, I guess I was duped, I couldn't find it priced as a standalone one the PSN store at all (unless it went up online today) so I thought I was getting a bargain

The girlfriend ordered the PS4 bundle from gamestop.ie on Friday and there's still no notification of it being dispatched.

Trying to ring them all morning to see what's going on but can't get through and they don't even have a hold system. It's also now showing up as out of stock on the website but they've taken the payment already.

GAMSCHTOP WHY YOU DO THIS???

Likewise, I've ordered previously with them and not received notification of shipping so I wouldn't be too worried. Is it still Nightline who deliver for them with the express post option?

Any updates on Tesco pricing?

I'm surprised Supervalu didn't get in on this.

I wouldn't be too concerned, but that being said I'm the kind of person who would sit there and read all the info in Mass Effect in game in the directory thingy, the cards which you can bring up on the companion app function like this.

It would be a good idea as while waiting to travel or for friends to join you could open the app and read a snippet

Anybody know if it works without PS Plus?

Is there any point buying this for the 360?

I won't be upgrading consoles until November.

Yes. If you buy the PS3/360 version digitally you get the next gen version as a free download.

Not required on PS3, not needed on PS4 for Story and Explore missions, required for Strikes, Raids and PvP on PS4.

The psn clan now has enough members to be out of probation and gain access to the clan trophies, the Xbox clan still needs more members before becoming active.

I'm finding this fairly frustrating at the moment, I keep getting disconnected and booted back to the main screen.

I have just signed up for the clan but it will be a week or so before I get to play as the game is "for my" sons birthday. incidentally mine was shipped yesterday but still showing as processing by royal mail.

So jealous of you all.......so can you explore much or are there enemies every where you turn?

Everywhere is hostile apart from one place so far anyway. You can free roam the areas the missions are set but its not really an open world game. Enemies constantly respawn every few minutes too.

Same, now I can't even sign into psn. Got a warning saying that Destiny doesnt allow for 3rd party media use or some crap and that I was banned from joining strike groups or party chats, awful confusing.

The letters you receive from the Postmaster, what are they for?

Also I seem to have too many and there is one the PM has for me but I cant transfer it.


Any ideas?
