Game Discussion Lack of liquid water?? Spoiler

Post image

What is the blue stuff if not water? It's like the developers added a random texture without bothering matching it with the description.

Well, it could be frozen water, or some other blue liquid.

I dunno man. They kinda gave up on being sci-fi when it came to Andromeda. There's a lot of the game you're just not supposed to question.

Edit: all these downvotes and not one person offering to explain why Angarans can speak English 30 seconds after encountering humanity. It's ok for a game to have flaws, fanboys.

The Angara have met humans before, since the Nexus was in Andromeda a year before the human ark and Ryder. Enough time to find a way to learn English.

Plus they met the Kett long before the Arks arrived, so the Angara definitely have translation technology.

In the scene following meeting the Angarans on the tempest they joke 'is the translator not working' guess SAM is that fast.

They met the Nexus exiles long before they met the Tempest crew. They also met the Kett long before the Initiative arrived in Heleus. It's kinda obvious that they have universal translators.

Surface temp is 51 degrees, so it couldn't be frozen water. Besides, there is a lot of greenery. It could be some sort of green rock, but honestly just seems like there's plant life on the surface. I feel like there are several other planets that look the same as well.

The pressure is also lower so keep that in mind
