I noticed as you near the illusive man the option to talk to him appears. Does anyone know if you can speak to the illusive man in this mod or does it just react to you like an inanimate object. If you can speak to him, post a vidio showing us what he says.
@MrArmenian17 Not really an easter egg, just it helps performance because it just loads the two locations (the colony and Illusive man's room) into a level.
@BajenHunter Hm. I wonder: did the patch, take care of the possibility of actually doing, that? I have the patch, as well, since I have all the DLC (I'm playing the PC version... soon, getting the XBox360 version, & hope I can find the DLC, for it).
I don't recognize the locale. I can think of at least a couple places where there are culvert pipes, but not the placement of buildings, along with it.
Ilusive man: Sheppard, remember the fate of humanity is at stake. If you do something stupid now.... oh c'man wanna drink, cigarette?, please, just don't kill me
@HapplyFace I think it doesn't change anything. I did this just a few hours ago... I'm starting a new and I'm still in this mission, so I can't say for certain if it does or not... I'm sure we will only meet The Illusive Man in the third game. :)
Really? Why would they render him in Freedom's Progress? You'd think if he'd be anywhere he'd be somewhere outside Normandy since he interacts with you there
He is not only in Freedoms Progress.They rendered him in many locations where you must talk to him after.They do that to save memory.When the map ends,camera justs focuses on Ilussive man's backround and the conversation starts.
I used to think this video was a huge spoiler when i first saw it in the list.... i was sooo mad during my whole game experience because i knew TIM would die at some moment. What a fool i was...
This occurs for memory sake. In programming, you don't want to have to load up that scene after you complete the mission. So you just store the area in the current map. That way loading is contiguous and without disruption. I suspect you would find the illusive man tucked away in several levels to achieve this.
so that was just a fake model of a star behind him, and he was deep underground the whole time where the collectors couldnt get him.......................
@MrGmodlol61 i know right? did had some wtf momets i glitched out of the map trying to take cover or walking around in the mission to recruit archangel, then fall a bit and died and im like, "why they put fall damage in a game you cant jump or drop more then 1-2 feet o.o?"
So... The Illusive Man is literally IN Freedom's Progress? Of course! Collectors wouldn't think of looking INSIDE a planet for humans!
(In the game, you never go further into a planet when dealing with the Collectors, i.e. caves, etc. Besides, it's a joke... which I've ruined by having to explain this.)
Technically, you CAN do this stuff on the 360, and it's not really that hard to set it all up, but you do need a good flash drive (or just the xbox one), and you need to dl some modding programs. Getting the xbox flash drive is my last step.
i done sum looking around for the link and since u cant post the link here can someone email it to me at miget_matt@hotmail.com. i would be very graitful as there is lots of stuff i want to do to him. first thing is to ram his face in with my vanguard and slam his arse with marenda's slam power
OMG!!! can every1 get it through thier thick minded skull... really no you cant do this on 360 (or PS3) cuase no clip is a PC mod the only posible way i can think of is if you use a PC/360 mod converter (or whatever its called) cuase my friend did it with 1 of his fallout games and did i just contradic myself?!
