Re: Mass Effect 2

I love the shockwave power, it will throw multiple guys up in the air if they are near each other.

perhaps I should work on upgrading it then.

Is there a way to walk around the presidium aside from the Captain's quarters? I'm only level 6 right now so maybe I have to do a few more missions before it all opens up to me.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Now I need to focus on finding a shotgun and some ammo for it. I have the katana, but it only came with 15 rounds.

The ammo goes to whatever weapon you have out (not including heavy of course). So you actually have to equip your empty shotgun then walk over the ammo with it.

BTW can you actually read Ascention and Revelation in Mass Effect? I seen the books on the citadel and was wondering.

No they just show up in the codex with a small write up.

Zaeed is cool.

About the mission:

The vista before you go into the refinery is amazing.

I ended sacrificing the human lives so he could get his revenge. This was my first Renegade decision, but it felt like the right thing to gain his loyalty. Anybody do the opposite?

ah I see. well then I hope I can upgrade to bigger mags, or that better shotguns carry bigger mags, otherwise I feel I chose the wrong class.

also, I'm not sure if anybody else has mentioned this yet, but (beginning of game spoiler):

Spoiler

the part when you first start the game and you send the safety pods away, then there's a hole in the Normandy as you're walking to where Joker is. I'm glad they put that part in slow motion. Maybe it's just me, but looking up into empty space as the Normandy had a huge hole it, that was one of the better "holy **** I can't believe this is a video game" moments.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Do the guns have any stats? I've looked but didn't see any.

Re: Mass Effect 2

It's crazy how many more planets and systems there are this time.

No stats that I could find but the description tells you about it, like for example:

power pistol vd

Has a elivated sight to improve accuracy, used by turrians in the contact wars.

Basically it is all based off the feel of the gun, you basially decide what weapon is beter. Your allies automatically equip the "best" weapons in your arsenal that you own.

I had a pistol that actually did a **** load of damage to people but the problem is it only had like 6 bullets in a clip and could only hold 30 bullets max, -_-

That would be the hand cannon.

Your options are the Terminus armor or an item to research for the arm section of your armor called off-hand ammo pack. Well those are the two I know of anyway.

What's wrong with Shockwave exactly? If you were using that you'd have to use less ammo.

Re: Mass Effect 2

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

Re: Mass Effect 2

im so glad I finished ME1 before starting this

2 would still be great without having the experience of 1 but it would be like watching Empire Strikes Back without first seeing the original Star Wars...and especially considering all of the decisions that import over from 1

yes, I just found the ammo pack last night right before I had to save and go to bed, so I haven't had a chance to see it in action yet.

Looking back, I suppose shockwave is just fine. I guess I just need to level it up some more, I'm hoping it can get a little faster and with a bigger AOE. And in recent battles, I started using it much more than I was at first.

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.
