Don't know if you have to, but I did just for the hell of it. Don't like playing games that aren't installed.

Best places to find eezo?

I thought to myself... what's "eezo".

Best place I found so far is Daratar (SP?). It's a planet that has a side quest on it. Even if its depleted, just scan it.

Supposedly every system has one planet that contains Element Zero. If you find that planet, comb it like Space Balls.

Re: Mass Effect 2

You don't have to but if you don't than when you have to swap discs it will play off the disc instead of the HDD.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Man I am so bored of ME already...I want to get to ME2...I did the Geth Excursion now...but I have to go through the rest of the main quest...all 3 planets and Illos...but it sounds like if I don't do side quests I did in the first play through..won't be accounted for in ME2..only the last play through counts...or maybe that is if you do something twice...would hope so

A question for those who can answer it already...what is your favorite class(or if one class...rate it on 1 to 10 for me )...I was thinking of keeping with the soldier...but ionno..might go to another, especially if someone was a soldier and finds they are having more fun in ME2 with a different role.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Yeah, this game is killing my sleep. I had to wake up today at 8 at figured I'd go to sleep at 2. At 2:30 I look at the clock and I'm like damnit, can't quit and go to sleep mid-mission. I finally went to sleep at 3:30. lol

Today I'm getting at least 7 hours of sleep. That's my goal.

I had to take a break yesterday. Totally gassed. I played from 11p to 530a and then get back up at 8a. I'm going to do a better job spacing it out so I don't get FIRED.

I hear ya...I've only been up an hour and a half to 2 hours later than normal, but it's hurting. 5-6 hours of sleep every night this week adds up (Monday i was up too late watching Andy Roddick lose, so that sucked). That's why I'm glad I made myself go to bed only an hour later than normal lol

Re: Mass Effect 2

Black Storm probably most useless heavy weapon for Heavy Mech and shielded enemies....-_-.

Aim it so the ball goes right on top of them.

I was curious, where can I read info about my teammates? I don't know who to pick to make the best team for the style I play, and I want to make sure I'm not rolling with three biotics or myself and two soliders, for example. I don't even have all the teammates yet, but recently I've been rolling with Zaeed and Miranda.

Besides hitting the X button it's also fairly obvious by their ability/usable weapons. I'm still waiting for my CE so I can only guess Zaeed is a solider but I'm sure Miranda is an adept. Jack and Grunt is probably the worst combo with a Vangaurd but I haven't got everyone yet.

There was a bluish planet that had a lot. I haven't spent any of it yet,got something like 55,000 but that's in comparsion to about 450,000 iridium.

well, most of the party member don't follow exactly like the selectable classes. they also have less abilities than the selectable classes. but I think the closest comparison would be.

in sploiler if you don't want to know their names or who the party members will/could be.

Spoiler

Garrus = Infiltrator
Grunt = Soldier
Jacob = Vanguard
Legion = Infiltrator
Miranda = Sentinel
Mordin = Engineer
Samara = Adept
Jack = Adept
Tali = Engineer
Thane = Vanguard? with a sniper instead of shotgun.
Morinth = Adept(only get her if you don't get Samara)
Zaeed = Soldier

thanks yeah I found that earlier, not sure why I didn't see it right away though. I need to get Miranda's abilities up a bit, but I'm sure she'll be powerful later on in the game. It's still early so I have time to figure out my standard crew, and I haven't even recruited all the possible allies yet either.

I just started scanning planets, addicting in a weird way. Like, if I didn't get anything out of it, it would kind of suck but knowing I can take those minerals and buy upgrades, I'm going to scan every damn planet now lol.

Re: Mass Effect 2

I really underestimated Mordin, he was killing Krogan in almost one shot.

I put off scanning at first til I figured out I needed the materials for upgrades. Now I'm a scannin' fool.

The two engineers on the Normandy are hilarious.

Re: Mass Effect 2

I don't trust this Jacob dude. Not because he's black and has a Jewish name, but he's just way to nice. I get this feeling he's a mole, like an episode of 24 where there's always a mole on the inside. I wonder later on if there's an option to kill him, like Wrex in the first game.
