Mass Effect coming to the PC in May!

That is fantastic news, i played through it on 360, a fantastic game with an amazing story and characters. Will look forward to this on PC!
 
100% of 0 is still 0 you know :)

I played the xbox version and didn't think it was too bad... Only really noticeable if you look for it.
I have Mass Effect on my 360 Elite and I'm sorry but if you saw no pop-up or slowdown then you are quite simply blind as a bat or are kidding yourself. It's not only noticeable if you look for it, it's been bugging me since I bought it.

That said it is still a fantastic, amazing game and I can't wait to see what improvements the PC version will bring.
 
Looks like I must be blind then :)

I honestly didn't think the popup was too bad considering the world is quite seamless and it is being streamed from a DVD.... No worse than Oblivion or Stalker on the PC in my opinion.
 
We're not talking about environment popup, we're talking about textures being unloaded and loaded very very slowly, "popping" on to the character models when you switch screens rapidly. It happens every time I use the equipment menu and in many conversations when the camera angle changes.
 
Only got mass effect recently for my elite, about 8 hours in and can't say I've noticed these texture pop-ups. Don't think I'm blind although haven't been to the opticians for a while. Would have thought I'd have noticed something like that but will take a closer look next time I play. Have noticed low fps in a few places though.

Try swapping armour on one of your team members and you'll see it snap in, and from there you will see it everywhere throughout the game. Just goes to show they should've put more RAM in this generation of console.
 
Well it is Unreal Engine 3 so it should be extremely simple.

MOH airborne is totally unmoddable and thats on ue3. Reason being they developed the game as the engine was evolving and making it moddable would require a massive code rewrite. Could also hold true for mass effect.
