Mass Effect 2. Somebody's getting shot and thrown out a window

So, I just beat the game. Some thoughts

-I don’t like the new designs for Grunt and Samara. Samara especially was hideous, like a pock marked Elvira or some shit. terrible.
-I don’t like bringing back ammo, but if it’s a trade off for being able to headshot and kill enemies quicker, I’ll take it, combat was getting pretty easy towards the end. slow down - burst into headshot with the assault rifle - dead enemy
-playing through hardcore on your first game is frustrating, but when you beat it, definitely gratifying.
-Favorite side members were Tali, Mordin, and Garrus as always.
Is there a way to keep everyone alive at the end? I thought I made the right choices, but I guess I didn’t, because my Jack got jacked

Thoughts on the story - very intense and interesting, it makes the reapers a little less intimidating because their motives are becoming clearer and therefore more easy to fight against and understand. I can’t wait for me3.

It’s hilarious when Shepard does it to one of the rival clan leaders. :lol:

Also what the fuck, I miss having the super dash ‘get me the fuck out of here’ run from ME1, that shit was great. The run in this is pretty garbage

Weeks, basically if you get all the character recomended ship upgrades, get everyones loyalty, go through the omega relay as soon as your crew get jacked, and make smart choices on the final mission team leaders, everyone lives no probs

hm. i wonder what choices i did wrong. i had everyone’s loyalty and i’m pretty sure - not 100%, i’ll have to check - that I had everyone’s specific upgrades. also went through immediately

i used garrus as a squad leader and miranda as the biotic barrier. that’s the part where jack bit the dust

You done fucked up.

yeah i think you’re right, fuck! i’ll redo that shit

Samara or Jack would be good options.

For Weeks

[details=Spoiler]Yeah. I made the mistake of choosing Jack as the barrier when I didn’t have her loyalty and Mordin ended up being carried off (not the same in your case, just Miranda doesn’t seem to be a great choice for that section). I did it the second time with Samara and got through without anyone dieing. I’m not sure if the character specific upgrades matter much if at all, I had none.

Stick with Miranda or Garrus as your second party leaders up until the end if you want to use them, Samara or Jack for the Barrier and Legion or Tali for the Tech Expert. I sent Kanye West back with the crew.[/details]

Yo, watch the spoilers, homes.

Woah, thought I had used them. Fixed.

I asked this a while back but don’t think I got any answers. Infiltrator - Assassin or Agent? I’ll be playing through on Insane if that helps.

Assassin is the better choice. More damage is always a better option than…not more damage.

Assassin it is. Thought it was best to check, I missed a few chat options in my last run through but that seems to be the only perk of Agent.

The double alignment bonus thing is pretty cool, but I personally don’t have much use for it.

So, who here is using the Dr. Pepper bonus items? I am. Sentry Headset is dope.

I’m using the same. My brother made the mistake of taking his save, putting in on a memory card and loading it up on my 360 (with the Zaeed and Normandy DLC). He played through them and put his save back on his 360. Now it won’t let him continue with it until he gets the DLC packs which means paying for the Cerberus Network :rofl:. I am hell allowing him to sit in front of my 360 for 20+ hours.

I used Grunt for squad leader and he failed miserably so I switched to Garrus which worked out okay. I accidentally sold Legion to the Illusive Man though. :sad:

imo.

You sold Legion?? hahaha, i didnt even know you could do that

legion must accompany me in ME3
there is just no other option

and you guys make terrible choices lol
grunt as a leader? miranda as a biotic master?

im going to make chris paul my power forward and tim duncan as my point guard

for me

Spoiler

well she was like I COULD DO IT TOO, but for that matter, so could any biotic. i mean shit wtf do you want from me, i figured it was a hella bad idea to rely on jack to protect others.

but yeah grunt as team leader is pretty lol

edit: the way to use spoilers is needlessly weird, it should just be [details=Spoiler][/details] imo

that is quite the spoiler!
