Lead Designer for Mass Effect Andromeda Answers More Questions
We are just a month away from the release of BioWare’s next Mass Effect. Every weeks brings more news to paint a clear picture of what players can expect. Last week it was an intuitive trailer showcasing combat. This was before Lead Designer Ian S. Frazier stated that hardest difficulty settings are playable from the start. Today he’s come with the latest update for PC players on twitter.
@RuttoSSJ I’m told we’re releasing the reqs sometime within the next 2 weeks.

Yep, apparently all PC players will have their peace of mind within two weeks. Fortunate, since we haven’t really had much news on the PC version. But while on the scene, Frazier decided to answer more fan questions. First, he confirmed the ability to carry both SMGs and pistols into combat. Then he confirmed that pistols come both fully automatic and as hand cannons.
@Strawbloody Nope, SMGs are SMGs. And they’re held properly with both hands now. We do have fully automatic pistols, though.

@Strawbloody Yup.

Lastly, Frazier added that Mass Effect Andromeda’s HUD is customizable to an extent. Simply toggle certain features on and off, while some disappear after a brief interim. We’ll certainly learn more on the star ways to release.
