Warning if you are *NOT* going to download Mass Effect

[Tragic Hero]

It has quite a nasty little bug when you use the No CD crack.  The game activates a sort of anti-hack and it won't let you use the galaxy navigation map.  Currently there is no work around except to kind of blindly click and hope you go where you need to or to use the console command.  From what I heard though using the console command has you miss out on some of the cut scenes and what not so it isn't in mind for anyone interested in the story.

From what I have read on the interweb is that a better No CD crack is in the work to get around this but for the time being its either blindly clicking or the console workaround.  Just thought it might be something to think about before downloading the game.

Cheers...

The legitimate version of the game is almost as bad.  Approximately every thirty minutes a random error happens which crashes both the game and my computer.  It's extremely regular, happens every time.  Also the game like to randomly freeze for a couple seconds at a time every now and then.

Unsurprising, the KotoR ports ran like absolute shit for moderate looking XB1 games.  Actually had the best luck with the Jade Empire port, even though it came out like, two years after the original.  I'm sure it's a lot better than Mass Effect, and you can find it for around $5-10.

It's been running pretty decent for me its just the whole map thing...

I just hope someone makes a No-CD crack that does the whole job sometime soon. 


And I came to realize that the game is rather "dumbed down" compared to KOTOR.  Granted its supposed to have a FPS kind of feel but no attributes or diverse skill tree.  Guess it has to be to get so much attention from the 360 community.

Yes, but your machine is about 12x the specs of an XBox I'm sure.  I can't get over 30fps on the damn thing, and it doesn't look nearly as good as other games I can run better (like TF2 even).

Who knew that it would work?  I saw that before but the program looked a bit shady and too many steps.  But sure enough that solved everything.

Meh, I'll wait until it comes to steam, if it does.
