Mass Effect 3 Achievements

It's nice to note that there's no achievement that can be unlocked by multiplayer only, so people worried about that can rest at ease. There's the option for MP or SP ways to unlock achievements, so you won't feel forced to play MP mode.

For example:
Tourist

Untouchable: Escape a Reaper in the galaxy map.
That sounds interesting! I guess Reapers will chase you down if you get within their range.

*starts screaming now*

That's a new mini-game, according to one of the devs there are clusters marked as Reaper controlled territory, if the Normandy travels there, they'll try to take the ship down.

[evilsherbear]

Hmmmmm I'm always skeptical about mini games. They're so hit or miss for me.

[xenzen]

Ugh, I guess they're like the 'shoot the fighters' mini-game in KoTOR? I'm gonna suck at it, I just know it. And how could they detect the Normandy, anyway - she's got stealth systems.

[arielstarshadow]

Well, the Collectors were able to detect the Normandy in ME2, so it stands to reason that the Reapers would have comparable/better tech than that.

[xenzen]

That's a good point - but the Normandy is supposed to be badder and bigger! And if it can defeat/fight off Reapers, you'd think the stealth systems had been upgraded to the same level.

[czarblackblade]

Maybe it only happens if you stay in the territory for a certain amount of time? The internal emission sinks can only function for a few hours before the built up heat cooks everyone alive.

[xenzen]

That's also a good point - maybe now we have an explanation for trailers showing Sheploo whipping around in a turret with bigass blast shields - suspension of belief not only required but mandatory as to how that pea shooter (in comparison to Reaper beams) can hold off Reapers long enough for the Normandy to escape into FTL.

[czarblackblade]

I thought that trailer was from a ground-based mission.

[xenzen]

I have no idea, just speculation on my part.

[czarblackblade]

If I recall, Shep was shooting at a land-reaper to distract it while the fleet prepared an orbital strike, or something like that.

[xenzen]

So, my pea-shooter comment still stands? LOL.

[vaieta]

That mini-game in KoTOR was easily my least favourite part of the game. I downloaded a mod to make it easier and the ship still kept blowing up.

[xenzen]

Hah, yeah, and I downloaded a mod to make swoop racing easier, too (all the pads were in the middle, LOL). I wasn't so bad that the ship blew up, but it certainly got old and annoying.

[arielstarshadow]

I need to know where to find these mods and how to install them, because I bought KOTOR during Steam's big end-of-year sale.
