[ALL] Mass Effect General Discussion

im trucking along through 1 and 2 using wikis and even a few cheats. the cheats are to build my guy up as though i was doing the side quests. since i avoided all side quests in ME1 i used a XP cheat to get my guy up to level for the carry over save....with ME2 i plan on doing more side stuff since its much better, but its all about not burning myself out since the only reason i am playing 1 and 2 is for the game save going into 3.

the other cheat im using in ME2 is giving myself renegade points so i can use mornith. this prevents me from have to use every single renegade dialog to get myself full renegade by the time i get to choose her.

console commands on ME1 worked like any PC game should. but in ME2 and ME3 they didnt allow PC gamers to have any flexability with mods or console commands at all...so its really a pain in the ass to even try and use them

once i get the ME3 i plan on playing straight up, but i want to have my save setup right when i move on to that game

Ah Morinth. I was hoping I'd get something out of her in ME3. I failed to wheel her at the VIP club and she got away. Samara's death made me unsure if things would continue.

Apparently she can appear as a regular Banshee when battling on Earth, I'll see if I get her in my game when I get there.

You do see her on Earth by the time you get there.

Unfortunate for her that she can't give you a few asset points before the big finale. :shifty:

94 hours later. Mission Accomplished. Off to Skyrim.

 

[Maynard]

doing the katsumi dlc...its not bad. i like it cause its something new in ME2

 

[Maynard]

got everyone recruited now. did miranda loyalty and kasumi is loyal too. the only recruit left is the geth dude, but i think he comes later. gonna start banging out these loyalty missions.

one pc cheat that i love is a console command that allows you to give yourself XP, talent points or resources whenever you need them. i use the resource cheat so i never have to scan planets. i hate that shit

oh and i am romancing kelly and miranda atm...kelly was the best doing her little slut dance around the pole...tali would be nice if she took off the mask, but she didnt so its a fail.

Finished ME1 I played about a hour of ME2 and im loving the new controls already cant wait to get more into it

That is the one time I'll support a cheat for this game. It's the only complaint I have from ME2, scanning the planets. At least they improved it with a finder in the third game.

 

[killgod]

scanning isn't too bad. just don't forget you only need about 200-250K of each resource, which comes with scanning about 15-20% of the planets. Just hit up the rich ones where you're getting lots of 4-5K hauls and it's not really that bad.

 

[Maynard]

i love not having to scan. initezo 50000 = 50000 element zero

i was ok scanning my first run of the game, but this is 4th run now and no way i want to spend time with that

 

[Archbomber]

Im going to start ME1 campaign again and try and do the entire series in chronological order. Wish me Luck.

Just got all three plus battlefield 3 for under 50 bucks for PC. Gonna download the texture patches too and start my first Renegade Shep playthrough of the series on the PC.

 

[Maynard]

got all companions unlocked and loyalty for everyone accept grunt, zaeed and legion. im only doing legion though. banged jack...playing tali and miranda, but gonna hold off for kelly

 

[Maynard]

finished. didnt lose anyone. couldnt get kelly to romance at the end. i think i still have the door open with liara from ME1 which might be causing the kelly romance to not trigger. oh well, off to ME3

 

[Maynard]

graphics of ME3 on pc are crazy good

 

[JayDizzle]

Doing a second playthrough, this time as a Renegade Vanguard.

Took the Colony/Ruthless backstory, seeing it as an opportunity to have this particular Shepard lose their shit when given the chance to eliminate some slavers through the Alliance.

After doing the prerequisite Prologue stuff, grabbing everyone (including Liara so I could get the trophies from taking Wrex and Tali through the entire game this time around) and coming back to the Citadel...

I started on the "I Remember Me" quest.

...Had I not put in the right amount of points in Renegade, I'm sure I would have seen someone put one in their own dome while I tried to talk them down. :smh:

I'm hoping I won't have to hear about this person hiding a toothbrush to use as a shank later on down the road :tiptoe:

I just made it to 3 the other day and I'm pretty damn happy with purchasing the ME Trilogy. I thought 2 was my favorite but 3 is just so damn polished gameplay wise. The biotics are ridiculous. :fap:

Really wish I would've killed Ashley though during this playthrough. I've always killed off Kaidan because I was trying to bang Ashley.

I ended up getting ME3 as the free game with SimCity, and holy crap, it's almost like a new game on the PC compared to console. Currently taking my time to go through it again, I just rescued the Krogan female from Cerberus soldiers.
