I don't recall it ever being an issue, but it's possible that my parents were right when they said that all that loud music would destroy my hearing. One other potentially noteworthy fix dials back the volume of the Mass Relay screens in Mass Effect 1, which some players apparently found to be too loud. Mass Effect 1 players will be able to reach maximum level now, the amount of credits that can be brought from ME1 to Mass Effect 2 has been reduced 'for more balance early-game progression,' and English dialog for German and Italian localizations will now play properly during Mass Effect 3's Citadel DLC. A new patch released today promises 'improved PC performance across various hardware configurations, including on Virmire,' and also addresses a presumably-more-rare issue that prevented the game from starting for people who had 'non-standard characters in the operating system’s username.'Īlong with boosted PC performance, a number of game-specific fixes are in as well. Hopefully the worst of those issues are now a thing of the past.
