belongs with Kasanagi's mod so people know what's going on.
I knew I'd forget something.
EDIT: Of course your the first to post in the new Mass Effect thread
...I am less disappointed that Legion looks so awesome in a top hat.
I still feel bad about cpl toombs
Woah, haven't seen that pic in a while
Even have it saved on my PC :P
Tali Fan-fiction ect. ect.
Let us laugh at the hilarity that is the Official Forums!
Overlord's announced, a Liara/Shadow Broker DLC is hinted at, and probably more will come to fill the gap.
We're likely to see three more alternate appearance packs, and I'm hoping the rest of the pre-order bonus weapons and armour in little packs just like Equaliser.
Overlord will be a buy for me
If the La/SB thing turns out to be true I'll get that too
Appearance packs : not for me.
EDIT: Unless it's a top hat and monocle for the whole crew
It took you this long
edit- Also, I thought the thread was going to be "8 Mating Requests for Grunt and 1 for [Mass Effect]"? Or does that not fit?
The Vanguard is not the best class.
There. I said it. Charging is fun when you're upgraded. But boy is it not fun when you're not. I finished my canon vanguard run (remained faithful to Liara). Yeah, I charged the frickin colossus (on hard-core only though, so doesn't really count), I charged scions, ymirs, I charged around every frickin room in the galaxy, exept where level design didn't allow it (and why, for the love of the goddess would charge only work half the time on the stupid husks???).
Still didn't enjoy as much as the engineer or adept insanity runs. Sorry Orca. Peer pressure won't make me love the vanguard. Interestingly enough I died most doing the Aria bonus mission with the four YMIRs guarding the loot - turns out charging one YMIR after another doesn't always work as it should.
You're wrong!
There. I said it.
Yeah, Charge is a ridiculous ability, but every time I used it, I couldn't help but think about how I could've killed the guy at farther range with SoldierShep, which really took all the fun out of it.
Plus, I don't know whether I was doing something wrong, or whether Charge just has a tendency for being finicky. I was constantly hitting walls when I used it, and there were a couple of times when Shepard would just absolutely refuse to do it.
I just had more fun with the ridiculous number of guns SoldierShep can use, and if I ever want to itch that biotic spot, I can just pick Reave as my loyalty power, and get it out of the way. Plus, the fucking Revenant just kicks so much ass, while the Vanguards don't even get one gun that's even half as awesome... Minus the Krogun, but you can use that gun on any class, so it's not really a class-exclusive benefit.
dunno what it was, but the whole fight just clicked, Garrus and Tali followed all my orders and it was tense enough to be exciting, but executed well enough to make me feel, dare I say it, hardcore.
The gunplay can be a bit so-so in Mass Effect, but that whole section was severely awesome!
Like Curly, I registered for the ME thread, SO!
Big choice and suitably nail-biting ending too.
Engineers are such a pain to attack.
and AMEN on the engineers being butt-munches. What's that, Ive shot my pistol once and it's overheated? FUUUUUUUUUUUU...
Warp ammo. They've got biotics and tech covered, so ammo power is your friend. armour-piercing is pretty good too. Depends slightly what difficult you are playing.
I mean, why take warp ammo if you plan to run with Jack, for example?
That being said: You cannot go wrong with Reave.
I don't really hate anyone on the ME2 squad, but I am completely indifferent to Jack (and Jacob as well). Outside of having to talk to her to get her loyalty mission I basically forget she exists.
Reave is great blah blah but you've already got warp as sentinel. Having said that, one strategy is to take reave, ignore warp AND throw in order to put some points in cryo blast (source: sentinel guide in the ME2 wiki).
Re: the ammo powers I went through about 7 runs before I realised that it's actually not the best option to have squadmates go for squad ammo, because the bonuses are so much higher on inferno or tungsten etc. So optimally your sentinel has heavy warp ammo, and Jack has heavy warp ammo.
Both are good although I'm told infiltrator is better.
Well I liked throwing mans (sentinel), punching mans (vanguard) so I think now I'm going to shoot mans in slo-mo. I guess it all depends on if I want them to see me coming...
Also, would an Adept be a good class for an insanity run in the original ME? Working on a Hardcore/Renegade/Engineer run right now. Trying to get 1050/1050 or whatever it is.

Yes they scale; how much so depends on your difficulty but it's largely irrelevant because unless you're playing on Insanity everything dies by looking at it from level 1 to 60.
Adept would be fine for insanity because managing enemies is pretty much how you get through it. Having them all lifted/singularity etc just makes it a turkey shoot.
Really whatever you can do to keep them immobilized so they can't chain use Immunity is the key to making Insanity not incredibly boring in ME1.
Because the enemies aren't more difficult via AI. They're more difficulty by everything having immunity and just doing a lot more damage with attacks.
And keep Barrier/Immunity up 100% of the time. If you don't dumb things like rockets will one shot you.

I really don't mind Jacob. I kind of like him as the "Down-to-earth" character that he is.
Jack however, well, I try not to talk to Jack. Jack just feels like the writers had a disagreement over what path to take with Jack; the super-bitch bad-ass, or the powerful girl who's pretty insecure about life in general, so, instead of choosing one, they tried to do both, failed, and Jack is just annoying.
