  1. I'm real happy for you Purkake, and Imma let you finish, but Quarians have the best Flotilla of all time!
  2. Oh?! I thought you meant the other hole! Silly me!
  3. It's there for the "immersion" It's not immersion, it's a load of s***. Now give me a game where you can dunk a bitch's head into the toilet bowl & flush it ala Arnie in T3, and then we'll have immersion.
  4. Fools! You should all be flocking to GoG (not reading this thread) as we herald the second coming of Sanitarium! I've been playing this non-stop for the past 2 days. God, I've forgotten how sweet this game is. It's almost like the neglected, point-&-click cousin PS:T! That, or disfigured, amnesiac protagonists searching for their identities in the wake of sinister schemes was strictly a 90s thing.
  5. Insanity run is brutally deceptive. It starts out easy enough and the difference between hardcore seems negligible. But once you get to Derelict Reaper & Collector Base, the s*** starts to hit the fan! For maximum survivability/pwnage I recommend: Soldier + Geth Shield Boost + Geth Pulse Rifle (& Widowmaker) + Inferno Ammo; OR Soldier + Geth Shield Boost + Revenant; Even though the shield powers burn out pretty quick on Insanity, they're still a lifesaver when used as a second-life instant heal.
  6. GSB > Barrier > Fortification Fortification cannot be upgraded through research. Barrier can be upgraded with Biotic research. GSB can be boosted with Tech AND Geth research. And if that's not awesome enough, level 4 GSB gives you a 10% increase to weapon damage!
  7. My sentiments exactly. They way Bio implemented him was bogus. For a a guy more vacuous than Alicia Silverstone, the least I expect is that he's packing some serious ownage. Sadly, 'twas not to be. With the half-assed convo implementation, he was obviously a last minute addition or a product of serious neglect. False. As my fellow ME lover pointed out above, his loyalty mission was solid enough to have quality even if he was boring and bland otherwise. That, coupled with DA's Shale shows that Bio do know to to make a quality DLC companion with importance to the main campaign. It's just that here they didn't do it. I'm all for criticizing Bio for their faults, but posters coming out with stuff like "Bio can't make a depressing ending", or "DLC characters must suck" is pure lies at worst, or idiocy at best.
  8. I don't give it up for free. If you want my time, you gotta pay.
  9. Now you're speaking my language. Still, I'd much rather get my explosive B -job, than sandbox nagging & micromanagement.
  10. Word to the BioBashers: Mocking Bio isn't going to make you enjoy their games less. Bashing Bio might be the anti-establishment thing to do for you habitual iconoclasts, but deep down you know you like it, which is why you keep playing Bio's games and posting in threads of their games. Kind of how you "movie critiques" watch James Cameron flicks for repeated viewings in order to catch those clich
  11. ...Meanwhile, back at Peter Molyneux's Think-Tank Base, RPG Division: "Well done my minions. After much blood, toil, & deaths due to programmer aneurysms we have finally perfected a title worthy of our inflated hype promotions - House Wife 2: Return of the Homemaker. With the sheer permutations of household chore options to the fully customization grocery lists, our players will never play in the same house twice! With detergent that level scales to our players garments, every laundry cycle will become an epic battle of the bleaches! Keeping with our traditions, we have this day marked an unprecedented, yet ultimately pointless landmark in gaming history. We have transformed the neglected duties of doing the chores into a legendary quest to keep the hearth!"
  12. Combat stinks worse than Michael Moore's toilet seat, don't it? Restart the game (or use the save-game editor) to switch your class to soldier. You'll be fine then.
  13. So does anyone know how to increase the size of the micro-text in this game? Changing the resolution does nothing!
  14. Infiltators are a lot of fun to play on the lower difficultly levels, but you wind-up getting Zergling Rushed on Hardcore/Insanity once that tactical shields drops. As for biotics, you're absolutely right about the shared cooldown killing the fun. Now to rub salt into the wounds, on Veteran or higher, all bogies are packing some serious biotic resistant barriers. So even if you get off a powah, it's pretty much useless.
  15. They did it so they could fill the soldiers ability sheet, why else. Naturally. But you know, pre-release I had the soldier class pegged as the worst class on paper. But given the crappiness of biotics in ME2, soldiers wind up being the best class in practice. Why? Because: 1. No bogie uses biotics on you 2. All bogies have mad gun skillz 3. Bogies discriminate against you, making you the defacto aggro 4. Powahs share cooldown times, making biotics pretty much useless for you 5. When you can launch a jedi powah it's usually absorbed as the bogies have barriers 6. But your guns never miss if you don't miss (since they're no longer character skill dependent, but twitch based) 7. Thus, battles turn into a hide-and-seek game where you pop-and-shoot out of cover REGARDLESS of your class 8. So since you have to do that you're pretty much choosing from player as a solider vs a crappy soldier (less gunz, less bling, more wuss)
  16. Pathetic. The fact that you're about to get drunk is absolutely disgusting. Any self-respecting Aussie would already be drunk. FAIL.
  17. Case in point. Having ammo as a powah is just ridiculous. Even more so when all powah cooldown times are shared. As for why Bio decided to dumb this down from the modular intra-weapon customization system that worked so well in ME1, is beyond me.
  18. The Metacritic score is quite a bit higher, so I suspect AP is better than KB. What Metacritic doesn't tell you though, is that AP is the sissy chick game. KB is for the men in the house.
  19. And pick up a mic tomorrow Bok. It'll make things hell-of-a-lot easier.
  20. Man, that was some epic wastelanding. Mrkreku & Nighshade - you guys missed out. Ah, well it's all for the best. Now you won't have seen us work out our n00b kinks.
  21. In Soviet Russia, vaults save you. Score!
