When will we get our dirty hands on that sweet thing? :)

The question is what the hell you're going to do with it, since it will only be available on missions tailored for it. Which if former DLC is anything to go by, will amount to 5 hours of gameplay by the time ME3 is released.

I think I made a mistake in picking up the Revenant machine gun instead of a new Sniper rifle in the Collector ship. The Revenant couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. Bah. Hopefully it gets better with some upgrades.

The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

I found that taking additonal training instead, in my case assault rifle training, helped out - mostly with the added ammo of having another weapon in the inventory.

 

This.

In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum.

eh, I always swapped between rifle, pistol, and smg. if I ran out of those my heavy weap and my incin would punch out enough damage to save me while my allies went nuts.

I find I'm using the Sniper rifle 75% of the time. Combined with Adrenaline Rush, everything gets murdered. The rest of the time I was using the Vindicator battle rifle - also deadly accurate, even on long range. That's why the Revenant is a disappointment. Maybe I'll have to buy that accuracy upgrade on Tuchanka for it.

Preaching to the choir brother. :thumbsup: Not to disappoint you, but the vindicator is the most accurate rifle.

BTW anyone knows when the expansion is coming?

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

Holy ****. Suddenly Samara sounds a lot deadlier.

Soundtrack to this game was pretty good, will have to see if there's a way I can rip it out from the game files.

Never found a reason to do that, the extraction process isn't that hard (hell for TA it was just ripping the CD :thumbsup: ). Surprised they sell them, though.

 

RPGmasterBoo, should be in your My Documents folder under Bioware/Mass Effect 2. In XP it is, I imagine it'll be the same in Vista/Win7.

My problem was choosing Vanguard and being able to use only pistol, smg and shotgun with the shotgun being useless due to short range and having to stay in cover. I practically had to choose the rifle training.

Oh no... In a supreme act of idiocy I appear to have deleted my lvl 30 character along with the game.

which sniper rifle do you use? Gromnir typically brings along the widow for boss killing, but there wouldn't be enough ammo for killing 75% of enemies. played as an infiltrator and we used the heavy pistol most frequent. the smg is nice enough, but this game depends on cover, and we does far more damage with a single heavy pistol headshot than we does spraying a bunch o' smg ammo into a target. peek out from cover to take two shots for a kill is requiring us to be exposed less than does smg.

 

was kinda a no brainer for us when we had choice between assault rifle and the widow sniper rifle as we were building a sniper character, but am betting that we woulda' actual gotten more practical use from choice of assault rifle training. combined with heavy incinerate, the widow sniper makes relative short work of some of the more challenging me2 foes, such as scions, the end boss and those ymir mechs ( a single ymir mech is no problem, but we find that when we is faced with 2-3 in a single encounter they can be... troublesome). nevertheless, is relative few ymir, scions, and bosses.

 

regardless, when we hear that folks is killing a majority o' foes with sniper, we wonders which version o' the weapon they is using: incisor, viper or widow?

 

HA! Good Fun!

You just deleted your Bioware folder in "My Documents" for no reason?

No, its empty for some reason.

 

I probably wasn't paying attention to the uninstaller and clicked something that shouldnt have been clicked.

I'm using the Viper (fully upgraded). With level 4 Adrenaline Rush I can simply queue up several headshots with relative impunity... it takes down everything really quick.

 

But still, the Vindicator battle rifle seemed to kill all mooks just as fast with one or two bursts directed at the head.

I felt that way at first too. The aiming doesn't really get any better but it's great at medium to short ranges because of its high damage. Playing on insanity I was having a lot of trouble with YMIR mechs before I got this gun. I can see it not being very useful on other difficulties though.
