Mass Effect 2

Re: Mass Effect 2

I've unlocked extra outfits for crew members...but where is there an option to change?

also...i think a bit of a blade runner reference is a bit too obvious though I could be wrong:

Spoiler

the elusive man's eyes are so nano-techified that it's not subtle at all. He's either a robot or a clone of some kind. I had my sheppard's scars/nana tech covered by using the ship upgrade and his eyes no longer glow like that. I like it, but it's too obvious and has me expecting a reveal like I already mentioned.

My other question really has me feeling dumb - why am i using disk 2 and I don't need disk 1 anymore (so far)? like what is the difference between the two disks? ...I literally don't even have a good guess. Naveed is bad-***...so is thane...I like all the crew except the krogan. They have rubbed me the wrong way ever since ME1...they can all kiss my *** lol.

I wish (maybe there still will be) there were more elcor to talk too...they are so cool to me, I like them...so I even felt a bit bad threatening one earlier.

In your cabin on the ship you can change and setup armor for you and your crew.

They said in the second book that the Illusive Man has had implants, it's not a spoiler. And you change their outfits by pressing Y at the squad selection screen.

Re: Mass Effect 2

So looks like my downloads from the short time they were free worked, so anyone who wants the gamestop free stuff, send me a PM and I'll send it to the first person after verifying my downloads work in game.

Re: Mass Effect 2

PM received, I'm still getting to the point where I can check to make sure I already have the armor

Edit- DakkoN sent you the code

Re: Mass Effect 2

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.

That's gonna take a long time. I know cause I did it. Every available one anyway. I'm guessing there's still more since I didn't come across a lot of side missions.

As my CE isn't here yet I started my second playthrough with my expendable character I made just this last saturday. Combat drone is awesome. At the very least it'll distract enemies for easy head shots/use of powers,even the giant mechs. It can also be deployed in places you can't reach.

OMG Horizon was hard as hell ! Loving the Grunt though, he is a butt kicking machine.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Oh I love scanning planets. I always approach it as fishing. And everytime that meter jumps, I always yell JACK POT ! and fire my probe LOL.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Engineer is sick when Incinerate is up. Don't even need a gun! Probably the best way around the ammo system and also great for those that don't like shooting. You have to aim Incinerate a little bit but it's like Wanted,it'll curve around corners.

Re: Mass Effect 2

I've been gaming steadily for about 30 years, and this game is at the top of my all time list. anybody who says video games isn't art has never seen Mass Effect 2.

I'm seeing all kinds of nods to sci fi films in this game ranging from Event Horizon to Riddick to Blade Runner to Enemy Mine to Star Wars. I could go on and on about all the cool environments and locales in this game (the planet Illium and Club Afterlife on Omega to name just a couple).

Assisin's Creed 2 was amazing, and then we get Bioshock 2 coming up as well. But Mass Effect 2 is just unreal. Anybody who doesn't play this game is missing out in a huge way.

Bioware rules.

I was going to ask if anybody here was playing as an engineer. I had no interest in that class in the first Mass Effect because I like the biotic powers, but the video I saw of the engineer for ME2 with combat drone and the ability to take over any mech, uh, that sounds awesome. Sounds like you're enjoying it so far, care to elaborate a little bit?

Re: Mass Effect 2

Man, I love how your teammates are actually useful. I can sit back and do nothing and they will still kill people on their own.
