Originally by: Irida Mershkov As for the Collector General, yeah, but after fighting Scions and Praetorians on Insanity I've since lost any pity for him.
This and those geth that charge with shoguns. Especially in legions loyalty mission.
I'm not looking forward to that one, or Tali's one for that matter, i've got Zaeed's loyalty mission lined up next.
Also looks like the Cerberus Network was a success.
Quote: EA's "Project Ten Dollar", the company's attempts at giving the used game business a dead arm, will be a part of Battlefiedl Bad Company 2's launch, just as it was with Mass Effect 2's.
BBC2 will feature an in-game store, access to which will be given out for free to people who purchase new copies of the game. Buy a game without this access and you'll have to pay to get into the store, which will be dishing stuff out for free to those plugged in.
So, yes, it's exactly the same as Mass Effect 2's Cerberus Network. No word on pricing yet, but if it's the same as Cerberus, you'd expect it to cost $15, which then begs the question, "why not call it 'Project Fifteen Dollar'?"

Just finished with my adept on insanity. Did tali's loyalty mission after the final mission so I could have fun with dialogue when I brought legion onto the quarian fleet.
Some funny dialogue, although I still think its odd they let you even with my paragon points. Also recruiting tali when you have legion with you is funny.
On side note, I think final mission is way too easy. Only places I died was when a harbinger got behind our cover while I was distracted by the reaper.
Told the Quarians to not goto war, but I get the feeling what you say doesn't make a difference.

The final mission wasn't too bad, almost lost Tali as I was faffing about before letting her through looking for any new weapons in last minute gameplay, but that one Quarian Admiral seems dominant on fighting the Geth. Mass Effect 2 Vs Zero Punctuation.
Nice dig at EVE at the ending too.

Playing through as a Sentinel really makes me want an alternative weapon.
Next playthrough is gonna be a Renegade Vanguard with kickin' rad lava scars.

Edited by: Meiyang Lee on 18/02/2010 08:01:23 Started a 3rd playthrough as Soldier on Hardcore, no biotics makes even this quite a challenge. Love it so far, but only recruited Garrus (and Zaeed) at this point. Going is slow, as you really need to use cover and what few abilities I have to survive.
Funny little spoiler, walking in on the Blue Suns commander on the Garrus recruitment mission with Zaeed results in some rather tense dialog between the two.
Having Grunts armor boost ability from the start helps though. But YMIR mechs are a total nightmare on this difficulty, I can't imagine the trouble those will cause on Insanity.

Providing you can keep some distance and ample cover to switch around in, YMIRs are not too bad, still a pain in the ass though, died three times to one on Zaeeds loyalty mission last night. Grunts recruitment mission is proving to be a pain in the ass though. Blue Sun Heavies are really getting on my nerves.

Been there, done that!
Basically my strategy (soldier) is to use Garrus (overload) and Mordin (incinerate) and then just pound away with the widow (swap ammo types for shield/armour); find lots of cover and just keep moving around (use adrenaline boost to not get shot so much).
I use the Geth Shield Boost (+75% shield, +10% weapon damage), is Grunts Fortification better? |

Not by much, you can either increase the duration (180 seconds) at +75% shields or keep it at 60 seconds and get +100% shields, Geth shielding is quite similar, but offers a damage boost instead. Barrier is essentially identical too. Either of the 3 will usually do the trick, which is basically personal preference.
As for the YMIR, Garrus and Mordin indeed look like a good combo for them, will get to try that out soon enough.

Mordin dies too much for me. I prefer Miranda and Grunt. Health boost and overload from Miranda. Squad incendiary ammo from Grunt. Mirandas warp is also good against armour, although admittedly not as good as incinerate.

Isn't there one about why they're so common? or do you mean an indepth look on each one? if so, I agree. Also, the Turian Council member is a tit.

Mordin dies too much for me.
Mordins major problem is that he has the least amount of health and only has short range weapons (pistol, SMG), so he tends to get "up close and personal" before getting smacked down, but a couple of pistol and SMG upgrades and he can put out a surprising amount of damage in a short amount of time; meaning he needs to stick his head much less. Recruit Tali as early as possible to get her SMG upgrade and he'll put out even more damage. |

One odd thing i've noted about Mordin is that he seems to die 9/10 times if you don't leave Grunt behind at the Stand-Off part of the suicide mission. Quite odd considering their history. _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008

That has more to do with Grunt being a better soldier in a right out fight, which Mordin isn't.

If I lose someone in the suicide mission, do I need to reload a save before I went into the Relay or do I just reenter it to do it again? ________________________________________________ My Music "Commander-Shepard?" |

You basically need to reload at a point where you can still make choices to have any effect. If a section reload allows you to do that, then you can use those, otherwise, grab an earlier save from the previous section (personally, I always save just before a section end, just to be safe).

Definitely. I lost Tali's loyalty after Legions bonus mission and didn't have time to fix it. Ran the final mission and just avoided using Tali and she seemed to make it.

For me, I can't seem to get Jack loyal. As soon as I finish her loyalty mission she goes and smacktalks Miranda, and the paragon option in that situation is greyed out despite me having well over 80% paragon. But if I don't use Jack for anything in the final mission, she just dies in the final fight without even a cutscene to show for it. ____________________

You have to have 90+% I believe, I had 100% when I did jacks loyalty. Just finished my second playthrough on an Adept, was fun as hell and I blew through mobs with the group push which was insanely fun throughout the game, first thing I'd level up if I play adept in ME3.

Doo doo.. doo doo *Watches husks flying to the left* Doo doo doo doo DOOOO *Watches Geth fly to the right*
Also, I made TIM (lol, tim) very, very angry. I like it, bring Miranda with you on the last leg of the suicide mission to get some funny dialog from her. ________________________________________________ My Music "Commander-Shepard?" |

*spoilers*
I notice if you preserve the collector station, the star behind TIM in the final conversation is red. If you blow it up and make him angry, it's blue. Red = renegade, blue = paragon. Looks like preserving the station was the evil choice. Foreshadowing TIM's evil deeds in ME3 perhaps? ____________________

I'm loving the female Shepards voice actor, never listened to her before ME2. I'd replay ME1 on my 46" tv if I didnt get weird looks from family, especially during the awkward romance convos. ________________________________________________ My Music "Commander-Shepard?" |
