Let's see if I get you. So you don't want crazy stuff like DEagles, but .500 S&W handcannons are fine, right? Oookay. Revolvers are THE russian mafia-style gun, so I'd expect to see them in the game. Not the weapon of choice I'd expect for an undercover intelligence operative, though.

Questions. Were you trying to make Sawyer look like Dr. Zoidberg, or was that an accident? Is that beard real? Are you positive it was Sawyer who was drunk? Will there be more episodes (if so, when)? The public wants to know!

Even better. He's the protagonist of the 90's cult show Address Unknown!

You hiring?

I think it's the inventory icons. All important/rare items in those games have distinctive icons. With KotOR-style text-based inventories, and the absurd amounts of loot you get from sacking broom cupboards everywhere, the excitement is lost. Funny how games that are ten years old can have an advantage in eye candy over modern games.

Unlikely, considering that the moon is actually escaping towards a higher orbit...

You are just jealous because they are rich and beautiful!

Well, obviously the skirt in the picture Maria posted is scandalous not only by Biocensor standards but by these very boards'! :0

Ad hominem? Style over substance? Takes one to know one.

Careful levelling and choice of squadmates is really the key to making combat a non-issue. So much in fact that past a certain point, it can feel like a chore. It's always a good idea to have at least one party member with good tech talents, those really make a mess on the geth. Max out hacking ASAP, and try hacking those armatures. The stalkers one-shotting you is normal considering they are snipers; again, use tech or biotic skills against them. You can one-shot enemies too, with the proper equipment and skills. Also, you may not be aware that you can move the camera around with the right mouse button while in the squad command menu. Not as tactically precise as an isometric perspective but... And when there's no cover (you seriously don't expect ALL situations to be tactically favourable, do you?), it may be a good idea to simply charge ahead, especially if you are a soldier. It will take pressure off your teammates and you can bash some skulls in, which deals insane damage and has the advantage of having baddies land prone. Aggressive soldier + good shotgun = cheese. Don't try it against krogan mercs, though. Really, I'm playing through BGT with SCS/SCSII, and I can't understand how anyone can think that the combat in ME is difficult... though I admit it's unfair - to the poor idiots standing in your way. Unless you are playing with a controller, that is. Oh yes. Gotta catch 'em all!

That's pretty much all there is to this mod anymore. If you take that away too...

This thread is a trolling class act. What's scary is that the demerit is in the OP's attitude, as opposed to the substance of his posts. :salutes:

Lol /sigged Yeah, your evil, trolling hypocrite and demagogue twin... that doesn't have a point. Nah.

Never underestimate the power of (potentially) hugely profitable business ventures, captain! All hail interstellar capitalism! :salutes:

Oh crap. Looks like I managed to come across as a relativist again. While I appreciate the fundamental truth behind moral relativism, I can only agree with you in that it's utterly useless... sad that truth has no use, while manichaean postures are far more effective. Or maybe I'm just making an interested interpretation based on my severely lacking historical notions. That's beside the point, anyway. I do not make value judgements, what is "logically superior", and what isn't. I only point to the holes in the structure, and the double standards used to cover them. If the current premises (human life is sacrosanct, #1 priority should be to preserve it, etc) prevent us from enacting necessary reforms to improve things like quality of life, stability, security, happiness... then perhaps it's time to re-examine those premises, and reassess their worth, as well as their foundations and implications. The time isn't right for a revolution, yet. I'm talking out of my ass here, but there must be mining operations somewhere that aren't cost-effective if exploited by conventional means. Having indentured servitude should seriously slash costs, making an otherwise unsustainable venture into something the state may get something out of. And I don't think Laogai is reserved only to punish the most hideous and reprobable of crimes - everyone who does time, works some... as it should be. Of course the most desirable alternative would be the Martian equivalent of the British penal colony system, that didn't turn out all that bad in the end.

Bring on the Eugenics Wars, please.

If you were trying to confuse me, you have succeeded. You're going to have to elaborate on how sound logic applied to X is less valid than when applied to Z, if it leads us to an undesirable conclusion. Your Pope example doesn't help either, since Papal infallibility isn't meant to be founded on reason anyway. The Holy Spirit doesn't care about silly logic! Explain? You are presenting a false dilemma. Just because you or I can't come up with fail-proof solutions for criminals that are beyond rehabilitation does not mean that your solution is acceptable or that there can't be any that's better. Your argument that "not having the death penalty isn't sensible" is pretty frail because it's based on a slippery slope - not killing these criminals does not imply they will be able to re-offend (or, more accurately, shouldn't imply). The current justice system is bloated, inefficient and outdated... but that isn't going to get better by sending people to the gallows. And you haven't commented on Laogai either - I'd very much like to know your opinion. FYI, I'm Spanish.
