Mass Effect 2 Details :)

[mdsx1950]

imho anyone who doesn't play it won't really miss out on anything. At least the free DLC bring down the sky had more of the Mass Effect feel.

Yeah your correct. Anyways just basically a month for ME2 to get released.

Heh, I got the executable from a torrent and bought it from the EA Store for a key. The key worked in the executable. No EA DLM for me!

Thats cool. EA DLM sucks and its so slow. lol

 

[HolyCow02]

I feel the same way



Ah thats great. Are you a paragon or a renegade or both? And soldier is awesome. I love the heavy armor and guns. Did you abandon Williams or Kaidan? I left Williams. Damn woman was annoying lol.

I am full paragon with one block of renegade. I also disposed of williams because the bitch shot wrex. As punishment, she died haha.

I just finished last night, and boy am I glad I bought the game. But I am wondering how much time has passed between this and the new one? Because I saw a video where Shephard was KIA or something. He didn't die at the end of my game, so when did that happen??

Oh ok lol. But you could have save Wrex if you pressed the Blue colour dialogue. Mass Effect 2 takes place in the year 2185, two years after the conclusion of Mass Effect. And yeah the KIA part remains a mystery as the collectors edition boxart is the N7 Uniform covered with blood

Pinnacle Station...

Spoiler

I think it is worth beating because you get that home in Argos Rho with grenade and medi-lockers. Most importantly, there is a "Personal Computer" there and you can get excellent random loot for 220,000 each time you use it. I got a Savant X bio amp (the absolute best) and Spectre Gear X (don't remember the name) which can usually only be purchased for far more than 220,000 from the ship and the Security guy. With Pinnacle Station, you truly can arm yourself to the teeth which would have required numerous play throughs previously.

Word of advise: turn the difficulty down to Normal or Casual. The DLC definitely wasn't designed with Insanity difficulty in mind.

Seems like I may need to re-install, drop the difficulty setting and get back to it.

On causual, I only died once when I was being stupid. I finished the last mission being stupid too. XD

If you got a lot of unspent credits, it is definitely worth it.

 

[KieX]

Death isn't an issue for my character, too high a health and shield soldier to be killed. Problem was beating the times. So fustrating when you're off by a few seconds!

 

[FordGT90Concept]

On casual, the only hard one was Survival Subterranean. I couldn't find a good place to camp out and as a result, was being attacked on at least two fronts the whole time. That was really the only challenging one besides the finale.

UPDATE 23# Mass Effect 2 Rated M

The Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) has rated Mass Effect 2 a (M) for Mature. But for those wondering about the series' now famous sexual encounters, you may want to see what the organization has to say about this steamy sequel.

"Players can also choose to have 'romantic encounters' with the alien/human henchmen characters; this involves watching a guided cutscene in which two characters flirt, kiss, and/or embrace: clothed alien/human characters may prop a partner on top of a space console, clear away the clutter from a bed-slab, unzip a future-blouse, or just talk it out," the description reads.

Though it is quickly mentioned that players will not actually get to see any alien intercourse or penetration.

"Though an alien/human may gyrate her hips while on top (fleeting—one-to-two seconds), actual sex is never depicted—the camera cuts away to space furniture and ceilings."

lol way to start the new year dude

Maybe because both are Sci-Fi.

[CDdude55]

[mdsx1950]

And i forgot to mention the UK version will be out one month later. It will be released on the 26th Feb 2010. :/

It is awesome. Why dont you pick up the game from Steam?Its about 20 bucks.. Or just buy it from the stores. Its worth every cent. And it will take a max of 9-10 hours if you dont do the side missions.

Try to get it before the 2nd one is out and finish it off.

And i forgot to mention the UK version will be out one month later. It will be released on the 26th Feb 2010. :/

Im debating on were to get it from i want the collectors edition but i like the armor that you can get from gamestop only problem is that Mass Effect 2 Digital Deluxe Edition - with Bonus! its digital so you dont get the cool hard cover book and stuff they send you a digital one.... but newegg has the Mass Effect 2 Limited Edition PC Game EA - Retail and it has the hard cover book and stuff only thing is it don't come with the extra armor and gun what should i do!!
