We don't see a Mass Relay when we jump into the Omega system and if there was one it would have been pulled into the black hole when the station blew up - remember how the Normandy left the system via FTL - so they are going to have to travel around a section of the galaxy "filled with black holes and exploding stars" looking for a (probably non-existent) mass relay. |

Just completed it today, Legion is my favourite team-mate. "Geth do not infiltrate." ... "Geth do not purposely, infiltrate." you tell em Robro.
~Spoilers~ The Normandy isn't stuck in collector space, during the credits you go back through, if you continue that file once completed, you end up back in normal space.
The Terminator was a bit daft, but incredibly easy on Veteran, me and Legion with the Anti-Material rifles sorted him out easily, kept Garrus as back up.
Garrus was also hilarious as my Femsheps romance option: "Normally i'd be complimenting your head ridge if you were Turian, I suppose you hair is nice and your waist is... very supportive." Smooth Garrus, Smooth.
According to Mordin kissing Thane is like licking a toad too.
Also, on Legions mission, did you guys wipe out the Heretics or re-write them?

* Make sure your crew are all loyal, upgrade the Normandy before heading through the Omega relay (weapons/shield/armour), then when it comes to choosing team members for certain parts of the final mission select the right ones for the right job (vent needs a good techie so that would be legion/Tali, and for the second fire team a good leader which could be Garrus for instance). Do go into it thinking that you should choose your least favourite characters for the ****ty jobs. :P

As many upgrades as possible, all loyalty (I didn't have Zaeed loyal though so there is a bit of leeway).
Also don't trigger the IFF mission until you are ready, it begins a countdown afterwards which effects crew casualty rates. I ploughed through it after that and didn't lose anyone.

I think my two personal favorite dialogue moments:
Mordin singing "I am the perfect model of a scientist salarian" was awesome on so many levels.
If you talk to Legion and ask why he has a piece of N7 armor welded to himself, he explains that he and his good-geth friends went to Eden Prime in the hopes of finding you, but got shot up by settlers. They got to the Normandy crash site and found some of your armor, and he used it to patch himself up.
You can then ask him: Shepard: "But that doesn't explain why you have a piece of my old armor welded to yourself" Legion: (Pauses and looks at you for a few seconds) "There was a hole."
I don't know why but that cracked me up.

Legion is my second favourite character development wise, Garrus taking first (swiping Tali down to third), he (Legion) just seems embarrassed on using your armour, he's the true ascended fanboy.
Legion is great for insight into the Geth though, especially about his/their confusion on why the Quarians tried to exterminate them , the bit about how the Geth have tried to preserve their homeworld for when the Quarians return was particuarily worthy.

I see that we have the same taste in characters, I thought the same way with Grunt being fourth because I just loved how he had some controlled chaos about him wanting to fight. ________________________________________________ My Music "Commander-Shepard?" |

Grunt is just controlled bad assery. The one thing I liked was taking him to the Krogan homeworld, and his response at it basically just being a smoking crater. Can't quite recall the quote though. I have to admit, I thought Grunt would be a crappy Wrex to begin with, but props to Bioware for making him pretty interesting, and amusing during combat. "HAH, Right on your ass!"
I AM KROGAN.
One thing that cracks me up though is how different Jacob looks from previous incarnations.
I think I'm the only person who likes Jacob.

finished. imported my me2 run into new insanity run (wow is it hard until you get some tech)
TIP: Keep multiple saves, but not TOO MANY. Much to my regret, after I got about 75 save game files (towards the end of the game) the game just started deleting saves when I'd make a new one... AND IT DIDN'T START W/ THE OLDEST ONES
It would save my most recent, but all the newer ones before that were deleted. SO... when I went to load my game and do a perfect suicide mission I had a save from half way through the game, then a save from the moment i arrived on the collector base (AFTER you pick your squad).
Long story short: Save Fail. Keep an eye on your saves and don't let them clutter up.

Fully upgrade the normandy, gain everyone's loyalty,
Use Legion or Tali to hack through the tubes Use Garrus or Miranda as Squad leaders Use Samara or Miranda as Biotic Shield Send Jacob back with the Survivors
Everyone should survive. |

Also im going to try to find out how to get the romance ending with the love from ME 1 (saw a german play though video that has it)
Tick, Tick, Tick & Tick.
My Paragon Femshep is prepared anyway, my renegade one is gonna be buggered.
Also, just a helpful hint to anyone who happens to die without saving, you'll notice the game will start you off on the 'resume' option from your last actual save, if you check the load files, you'll see it'll have the auto-saves and a restart mission option, I didn't notice this until half way through the game. Came very handy when I realised I hadn't saved in five hours before I died.

Played through the first one maybe four times before I finally got my hands on the preorder ME2, imported my Paragon Adept, rewrote her as a Vanguard and got slightly disappointed about the shotgun (the assault took care of that though) and got massively miffed when I didn't get the Paramour achivement for romancing Kelly, then got her kidnapped and knew I had to go through the Omega relay to save her. Good thing I had done all loyalty quests already O.o
Got through the suicide mission but lost Thane (NOOOO!). Now gonna play through as an Infiltrator and try to get through with everyone alive.
Mass Effect 2 is...quite frankly one of the absolute best games I have ever played, and it's all due to the story and characters. ---- The Demigodess with a Conscience - An EVE IC Blog

You lost fishman? you bastard.
END GAME SPOILERS Actually, one point is where the hell was Harbinger during all this?, he releases control of the Collector General right at the end, but I noticed you never actually see him, so there is a second Reaper (Sovereign being the first) during the events of the game.

How do you get the Genophage cure? That was the one thing I was never quite sure about in ME1, got everything else though.
Does anybody else think that to really get the full effect of ME2 we need to wait until ME3, with most of the decisions in ME1 you could sort of see where they could end up, but I just don't see how many of my choices are going to have any great impact on ME3 (apart from the really big ones like the Geth and destroying/cleaning the station at the end.) |

You can convince mordin to save his peer reviewed associates work. This may help out with the genophage cure, but I dont think krogen instantly grow that fast then again we may not know when we will need that vs the time when the reapers who are now ****ed off enough that they have to take the long way to our galaxy to kill us all.
You can probably convince the quarians not to war with the geth at the trial.
You can also probably convince the Geth and if legion is any proof to fight for the survival of the galaxy, adding the rewritten geth may help out or worse yet shoot you in the foot (virus back fires)
Rachni you save in the first ME, youll get an update on them during ME2 if you saved the queen.
Council's and other aliens view of you are very starkly different if you kept them alive or not, I mean yeah maltreatment is there but im sure they will get over the fact your realive. Some of the aliens seem very ****ed off about letting them die. With a very united council its possible they can withstand far better than last time.
But im pertty sure when ME3 does come out ill be shooting my foot again. wishing I did something right in the first game.
and finally, how do you get the Shepard VI to work? would be funny if EDI has things to say about it. Pre-order your Sisters of ≡v≡ Exploration ship today, Updated 27JAN10

*MAJOR SPOILER*
As I understood it, Harbinger was actually still in dark space during ME2, only "remotely controlling" the Collectors through the general. Perhaps through some form of QED (Quantum Entanglement Device) or similar thing. It would appear to be some form of advanced indoctrination. At the end, after you destroy the Collector base, you can see Harbinger "leading" the Reaper fleet (he's the Reaper with four glowing eyes, just like the collector general), so I would assume he's still in dark space.
It does seem a bit farfetched though. ---- The Demigodess with a Conscience - An EVE IC Blog

I noticed that Harbinger controls the Collectors in the same way Saren was controlled by Sovereign, and that the datapad with the picture of Harbinger matches the ending cinematic of him starting up. Either way, it's going to be interesting to see how it plays out in the third one with the 'dark energy' effecting those suns and watching the galaxy defend themselves from the Reapers.

Trying to ignore most of what is written in these comments since i just got this awesome game today. Just got my new normandy. I knew it was coming but i still squeeled with glee. Especially seeing good old joker. Something about this game really appeals to me. I think its the story, its so rich in detail. Especially if you take time to read everything. Glad i read the books now. Otherwise i wouldnt of known about the Cerberus attack on the flotilla. Anyway back to gamage. Dont think im going to get any sleep tonight. Still got a new ship to explore before i do anything. Then go get the scientist. Oh one more thing, anyone else only does the good playthrough on most games that give you this option. I just never feel like being a bad character in these games. Except when the person or event demands a harsh responce!

Ya, I can never do a full Renegade, I just feel bad. I can be jackass to some people, but not all of them, like I let some people die to kill a merc leader. But other than that I hope you enjoy it, the setting and the characters make the game for me, it's great to talk to each character, and I loved the romance options in the game, and it doesn't need to be graphic, it means a lot more this time then just "LAWL SEXSCENE LETS GET ON FOX NEWS" ________________________________________________ My Music "Commander-Shepard?" |

Yeah you feel strong connections to these characters. Like forcing ashley to get off the ship and going to help joker. No question in my mind. They were not going to die!!! oh also the Blood Dragon armour is awesome. Just wish i could remove the helmet in cutscenes
