And now for something completely different


« Reply #30 on: March 20, 2010, 01:39:51 PM »

Well after a few weeks I went back to ME2 and finally done it on insanity.

I used soldiers, changing tungsten to heavy warp ammo. Miranda and Zaeed as my squadmates. Died once on the collector ship that time, the rest of the game went smoothly, I managed to survive the reaper ship, Zaeed's Inferno Grenade making short work of husks, Grunt with his shotgun also causes alot of damage.

No deaths on the suicide mission either, I think after completing the collector ship, I died twice in total, once during Samara recruitment mission and once during Legion's loyalty mission.

The shotgun sucks full stop unless you are a Krogan.

I've got the Claymore Krogan Shotgun for Shephard and it still sucks on Insanity. I think I'm gonna ccancel this playthrough with my Vanguard and start with an Infiltrator.

I'm trying to get all the achievements for ME1 but man it takes 4 full play throughs (providing you check the achievements first) and more more if you don't to get them all.  Its going to take me 5 and being on the 4th now the game has gotten so boring i cant play for more then 2 missions.  Any way to liven up this game at all after going through it multiple times?

This game would be 100% awesome except for the glitches.

For example I just ground down the final part and the reaper had a sliver of health left and I have 100 shields... AND THE GAME GLITCHES AND I JUST DIE FOR NO ****ING REASON.

Utter, utter bullshit... took ages because of having to deal with Harbinger all the bloody time... if it was just the reaper and the Collectors it wouldn't be so bad... but when you grind for ages without any save point and the game glitch kills you it makes you want to scream.

**** BIOWARE AND **** MASS EFFECT 2...

I just went to go onto the Bioware website and the forums are totally buggered there too... I log in and my avatar appears and then I go to another page and I get logged out... log back in... repeat ad-****ing-infinitum.

I swear to god I am just about had it with this game now. It's not that I've even ranted on that site either... the site is just totally ****ed.

Edit... it's this new IE8... UTTER SHITE! Firefox works fine on the Bioware site... IE8 on the other hand is just making the site unusable.

You need to unselect the option to stay logged in, funny thing is I only find it happens on one computer in our house and it runs on win 7, but that does you IE8, the rest are an older version of IE.

I swear that ME2 is out to send me insane.

I just got the reaper down to a tiny sliver of health, ran out of med kits AND MY DUMBASS TEAMMATES DECIDED TO STAND ON THE BARRIERS AND WOULDN'T GET DOWN.

Of course that meant they died and having no more medkits they stayed dead... and I got swamped by the last wave of Collectors and Harbinger.

This game has more bugs in the AI than a ****ing Roach Motel. If the bloody teammates did as they were ordered the last mission would be fun on Insanity mode... as it is I've just about had it up to here with the bugs ruining my game just when I am about to win.

And before anyone says "It's you an not the game", they should try to play it on Insanity Difficulty... the AI should be court martialed for failure to obey orders. At least in DAO you could switch to the other characters, give multiple orders to alter their behaviours etc... in Mass Effect 2 (just like in 1) you can only tell them to move or attack or use a power (that last is a ME2 new option... wow... I can't believe that... ). Really, they should have adopted the DAO AI command system... would have improved the game a hell of a lot.

Just realised something... Firewalker comes out today... I just hope that it includes bug fixes as well as the DLC. Here's hoping.

What do you mean? You can tell your squad to use their powers in ME1.

I find it is just Miranda who is like that. She likes to stand up whilst being shot at or go into the most useless location, or she goes to the location you tell her to and she sits there doing **** all. I never had this much trouble with other companions. Zaeed and Grunt were excellent on the reaper ship, both did well, and Zaeed was a huge help on the ambush in the collector ship. I think it is somewhat down to luck. That or use Zaeed more, he always does well with me, excellent with his sniper rifle or assualt rifle, and his grenade.

I've had the ENTIRE team do it, not just Miranda. I even had Grunt standing on top of Samara's head the one time.

Then there was the time I lost where Samara had gone as she died... I rezzed her and then she died again... I rezzed her again and finally spotted her... ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE PLATFORM AT THE END MISSION... right where all the bloody Collectors spawn.

Rufus is right... they do go retard in Insanity... I think Insane is what they go... suicidally insane too.

I mean, why is it that when they get on top of the barrier they stop responding... it's obviously a bug but Bioware haven't responded to my bug report. It happens so often that others have got to have experienced it.
