A Little Mass Effect 2 News

[symple19]

You can find the PC version on TPB if any wanted to know.

I'm not getting my hopes up like I did for ME1.

[IronMexican]

I was going to save before trying to open up a thing and the game said "unreadable" and the game is playing off the HD.

So it won't work?

Even though I have it on pre-order, I just couldn't wait and am downloading the PC version right now.

[symple19]

but I am not an impatient -head,

I am

I wonder if you'll get this dude named Legion in your party, that'll be tight!

I'm replaying ME1 right now, level 54 Vanguard Shocktrooper, I saved the Rachni Queen, hopefully she'll be an ally or something. It's too bad you don't get to keep your stats or anything form ME1, although some decisions you made in ME1 will carry over to ME2. They also said you can die in this game, along with your party members.

[DMX7]

i will NEVER buy a limited edition/collectors edition of a video game, unless i was rich.

waste of money.

That's exactly how I feel.

I think you can import your ME1 character..... I dont know at what level it will effect, but Im pretty sure you can import.

[redzero]

I'm about to finish Mass Effect 1, so I can transfer my stuff to 2.

you can. There's an option in the ME2 launcher that allows you to import the saves from ME1

[symple19]

I dont know at what level it will effect, but Im pretty sure you can import.

It affects your appearance and historical background. Also, decisions you made in ME1 (such as whether or not you helped/saved Wrex and the council)will have an impact. I've noticed that it also comes into play with NPCs relating to you, based on whether you were a paragon or a renegade

I'm a Paragon Infiltrator ( I was level 49 when I completed ME1 )

Weapons and upgrades are handled a bit differently. Armor is more traditional, in that you can upgrade the helmet/torso/hands/ etc. Gives more options for altering your appearance

New mini games for hacking PDAs and vaults

Better/streamlined interface

Much easier to control squad-mates.

Graphics are upgraded, especially concerning lighting effects

The game is HUGE. 12.1 GB

I'm thoroughly impressed, more so than I was with Dragonage. Bioware is the truth, the game is ridiculously sick

[resistanze]

You guys are killing me. I'm holding off buying this game for a few months most likely. ME is still my favorite game for 360.

[DarkReign]

I played ME1 for 360 and bought ME2 for PC.

No importing of old saves for me...kinda sucks, but whatever.

Sounds awesome. Less than 24 hours until unlock, already pre-loaded on Steam. Ready to rock.

I went back and tried to buff up my best character a little bit last night but I forgot you can't continue playing after you finish the main questline. Bummer, but nevertheless, the sequel is going to be sweet.

I did a speed run the 2nd time, I played on hardcore, so far I'm only level 54, I wanted to reach lvl 60. The game doesn't take long at all if you replay the game and just do the main quests.


Damn I wanna see how strong that Gravity gun thing is that shoots out that singularity thing, good thing I reserved it.


The last time I was a bad guy but this time I saved the council and remained neutral throughout the game.

[IronMexican]

Legion is easily the awesomest ally.

[duhoh]

yar grabbed it for PC. couldn't wait.

the gfx are awesome though. blows away the default gfx for dragon age (unless you have jb textures installed like me!).

i'm not gonna actually progress until i beat the original though.

You unlocked Legion yet?



I've got 16 hours in so far. Best RPG experience since Fallout 3.

[IronMexican]

This game was simply amazing. One of the best single player games I've ever played. If you don't own this game, you should. I might buy go buy this, cause it was that damn good. Only downer is I did everything and it took 20 hours

Already beat it IM?! How long did it take you to beat the first one (so I can judge how long this game really is)?

Also how would you compare it Dragon Age: Origins...since that game kind of let me down a little.

[IronMexican]

I don't even remember how long it took me to beat ME1. I lost all my memory, so I can't check, lol. This game makes the side-quests intriguing, unlike ME1.


And this game is infinitely times better than DA. Dragon Age was fun, but I never had the will to beat the whole game.

For anyone who switched to PC or lost their save files:

List of user-submitted save files. Takes you through your choices one by one til you find the ones that match you perfectly. Far superior t the generic one Bioware made. Cheers

I played last night over a bud's. While again, it doesn't seem like the game I expected, it's still one of the better games out there like ME1.

I'm more disappointed in this series than frustrated or even unhappy. What could be the all-time greatest games, to this point, end up being damn good but not up to that sort of hype.

You must have had extremely high expectations if you think ME1 and 2 are disappointing.

Id go as far as to say unreasonable expectations.
