Started playing it as a Soldier, was too easy. Assault rifle + all ammo types lets you mash anything and everything.

Re-made as an adept on a harder difficulty and now it's tough! I can see adepts dominating late game, but currently I have to really micro my team mates, and if a big mech comes out I'm f**ked!

M-920 Cain

/game

Pretty sure I have had to reload more times from going lulz and firing the Cain point blank than anything else. Higher difficulties simply make your squad mates die faster (ok technically enemies flanking more and using powers etc more often), it's not that much harder no matter what skills you choose. An Adept isn't exactly weak and anything you are missing you can get from the advanced training anyway. Running a soldier with Heavy Fortification atm loving squad cryo and most likely play something like a Vanguard later. Probably play through and get the Insane achievement for ME2 as well.

Yeah, I would suggest playing ME1... I didn't, and I'm still not entirely sure what's going on... I'm like halfway through now.

Thats what I'm thinking... $20 on CDWOW purchased.... now to wait and see if $45 for ME2 could be worth it

I think i was most of the way through ME1 a couple of months before ME2 came out... i couldn't resist once i seen it for sale the other day. I'm always doing crazy shit like this...

:stupid:

for those who have beaten the game how many hours did it take?

i need to allocate some time to play this game!

Depends, you can do it in under 10 hours, the last mission will probably go horribly wrong but you can do it, 30+ doing all the sides. That would be + any reloads etc and then you have to play it at least twice.

lulz

Your options as a male character are Tali, Miranda, Jack or if you go none, Kelly after the final mission.

Loyalty, upgrades and stage of relationship all seem to factor into survival rates.

My 'No One Left Behind' team composition was

Specialist: Tali

Team Leader: Garrus

Specialist: Jack

Team Leader Garrus

Escort: Mordin

As long as the team members you bring with you are loyal they survive.

Also saw there's a free DLC that add's +10% heavy weapons ammo on the armour...which means my last play through would be +100%, 2 x Cain shots, nice.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
