C:....mass effect 2BioGameMovies
Change the extension of the following files to .bak:
Opening_End_Seq.bik
Opening_End_SeqFM.bik
Opening_Seq_INT.bik
ProCer_300_FirstFlight.bik
ME2_Opening_SunMid_INT.bak
ProNor_Pod2.bik
ProNorEscape.bik

ProNorEscapeKaid.bik
ME2_Opening_SunMid_ESN.bik
ME_EAsig_720p_v2_raw.bak
BWLogo.bak
ProNor_Shepard_Rebuilt.bik
This will not get rid of everything, you still have to watch the non-CGI cutscenes and Save Joker. BUt it does cut down quite a bit. If you want those movies back just rename them to .bik again. If you're worried your renaming the wrong thing, you can download a BIK palyer and confirm the files.
2. Changing the first nam of your character does require an external program, but is pretty easy overall.
Download Gib's Save editor here: http://mod.gib.me/masseffect2/saveedit_rev23.zip
Open a save game here: C:Documents and SettingsUSERNAMEMy DocumentsBioWareMass Effect 2Save
Backup whatever save data you want.
Delete all the files except the one you want.
Open it in the editor, go to the Raw tab.
Under squad, click player, and change the first name.
Save the file under something new, since it won't allow you to overwrite for some reason. Make sure it's a save name that makes sense like Save_0002.pcsav, has to follow that format.
Rename the directory the your desired name, and you're done!
3. For those who hate planet scanning and hacking, there is an easy ini file edit floating around. This is just a colaseced editor that you guys have already been playing with but this one seemed pretty idiot proof to me. This again needs an external program but is non-excutable.
http://www.mediafire.com/?yjjzlzzzmyj
This has all kinds of stuff like god mode, extra weapons, infinite ammo etc., but if you just want the money, just use it to get your resources, save, then exit the game and revert to the non-hacked state.
I think that's the same guide I used way back when. It works, just rename the movies to .bik.OLD or something. Pares it from 10 minutes down to ~3 minutes.

The best part of Mass Effect is the romance. Man-on-woman. Man-on-gun. Woman-on-woman.

she vanished into the skyline and the game didn't move on
I had to reload
Tap the button/aim straight on? You get Instant Effect.
Hold button and move aimer? You get arcing Travel Effect.
Also, defenses preventing powers working is some bullshit.

We've got at least twomore pieces to go right? Looking forward to it, they're basically the first guys to really do episodic content properly.
:!:
A DLC where romanceable Wrex joins your party!
Get off your goddamn throne and do some Krogan Charging!
We do? Good news to be sure, but I must've missed that announcement.
to be honest I'd be surprised if we got anything else major
I thought that was Overlord
I
*thrust*
AM
*thrust*
KROGAN
*thrust* *thrust* *thrust* *thrust* *thrust*
Also, Overlord was just there, it doesn't really have any substance, its just an excuse to shoot geth and talk shit about Cerberus (both of which are fine goals imho).
Well...most of the ME DLC says on XBLs "Most Popular" page if that is any indication.
I've been waiting for my alt costumes forever.
Don't get me wrong, I really hope ME DLC is selling well, it only helps ensure that there will be more. I'm just pointing out the possibility that if Bioware is losing money on making DLC (by poor sales), they might not make more.
It's same engine, new VAs here and there I guess, and some other things. Though I doubt they're spending more than some thousands on it.
IN SONY-ET RUSSIA, SPOILERS LEAK YOU!
HA HA!!! Right guys? right?............... sorry....
They talked about new DLC after LotSB. They didn't use the singular.
If this is true...
ohmygodpleasebetrue
then it still wont be out till late next year at the earliest
but it will be nice to see where they are taking the series
ommplzzzzzzz
But after a few hours I just found that Infiltrator felt slow and ineffective. Stealth wasn't really useful for anything except running away, and just using a pistol made me feel useless. So I restarted as Soldier, and woah. This just feels exactly like I was hoping it would :^:
even the default sniper rifle is fairly formidable
Damn it leits. You've cursed them now. It went to their heads and now they'll sit on the third "bridging dlc" for like five years delaying ME3 by a further ten years. See ya.
