- Take your time getting to the Omega-4 relay so your crew turns to soup

No, they're flying in your direction, as their foiled plans in both games makes necessary.Revelations said:

Edit: ^ Shit!
Did anyone make Udina councilor at the end of ME1? How much of a difference does it make in ME2?

Almost nothing, I think you can make that choice in ME2 actually, not sure thought.
I just started playing this on Friday, after beating the first game, I definitely wanted more... yeah, so far the combat is MUCH improved, it feels very smooth and not as random, where the enemies move a billion times faster than you, and you don't have to worry about getting stuck on stuff.
Absolutely loved the music in the various clubs in the game - Lower Afterlife especially. Did a few of the character recruiting missions and some subquests, I'm still only about 10 or so hours in. I imported my Vanguard in from the first game, of course.
The only things I don't like in this game are the galaxy maps (would've preferred the "point and click" of the first game, instead of watching your fuel resource) and the scanning. Scanning seems very boring, I would've rather had the Mako, where I'd at least get to see some beautiful skyboxes on the planets, do some crazy physics maneuvers, and maybe fire at a few Geth or Thresher Maws. (Though the Mako and the ME1 subquests got old FAST).
Also, the game looks beautiful, especially some of the planetary expeditions you do
... but so far, I got Mordin, Jack, and Archangel to join... and a lot of the environments have been red and grey metallic warehouse looking areas, instead of the diverse but beautiful areas from the main missions of the first game.
Will keep playing, but so far I like this a LOT more than #1.

returning to the Normandy was drool-worthy

Yeah, make sure you talk to Miranda about upgrades if you haven't already, her upgrade makes the scanner move faster. Still sucks but it makes it suck a bit less. Also I think floating around are numbers for the amounts of each resource you need to get all the upgrades in the game, which is nice for making sure you don't do more scanning then you have to.

Thanks for the ratings guys! There are a few modded hairstyles if you used Gibbed Savegame Editor (on PC version) this webpage pretty much covers how to do it:

It's really not very hard at all to do. Also, LOL yes Barack Shepard is spot on.
Yeah, not really a difference, I think it will be something that shows up more ME3.
The amount of depth and shit you can do in this game is just too crazy. I literally spent hours last night just cruising around finding random side missions, which in some cases branched off into other missions.
There are so many things in here that some people will literally never see.
Mind status is blown......

I just hope they are planning on having an
entirely different character for those people who had Shepard die. It would be absolutely absurd for Shepard to just magically reappear in that instance, again. This would of course mean having all the voice acting speak a different name and that's obviously a huge task

Well it would be absurd, but they confirmed that save files where
Shepard dies are just unable to be imported in the first place.

Hey guys I'm sorry for posting in here but I'm playing mass effect one and I'm stuck on ilos. I've looked online but I simply cant find an adequate explanation on how to get moving. My map shows I have to interact with a security console but I cannot do it. I'm playing the pc version by the way if that helps.
Apparently you have to complete the game again if you transfer your ME1 save._Xenon_ said:Is it possible to import a ME1 save transfered from another hard drive on 360? I just bought a new HDD and copied my saves (through MU) to the new one but the game doesn't recognize them
Just load a save file before Saren and beat him again.

Yeah, just the simple fact of being able to screencap made it worth it to me. Plus this runs leaps and bounds better than the first one (which gave me a constant 30FPS with dips to 20 at combat, compared to 2 where it's all 60). The mod stuff is proving to be more fun than I expected (Dancing Torso Shep for instance).demifiend said:I know this is just an assumption, but FUCK you PC gamers with rigs that can play this game.

If they are going to just magically revive a dead Shepard and pretend like nothing happened, then shame on BioWare. The suicide mission no longer means anything other than losing out on some stats and credits. OOOOOH!!!

Yeah I'm used to having to compromise some aspect of the graphics due to the fact I only have 1GB of RAM and an awful CPU, but Mass Effect 2 surpised me.dreamer3kx said:

Huh. It would appear that the female Shepard I made in ME1 can't be reproduced in the character creator. The code provided in the squad menu doesn't even reproduce her. :lol
I've played the game for 5 hours now...
This is my game of the generation so far :lol
//Spoilers here, maybe =P

I already got a few of the party members all the way up to Jack and I have a sleeping Krogan I've yet to wake up. I think Jacob (that was the name of the black guy right?) already gave me his loyalty mission after I got done with the attack on Horizon.
Something bothered me and that is when the Illusive Man speaks about going to Omega 4. It sounded a bit too end-gamish and I am only 5 hours. I am expecting a twist somewhere, it can't be this short... right? :lol
Great graphics, great sound and VO, the battle system is leagues better, I don't mind the mini-games, even the planet ones, at all. I am doing the missions in the same structure as the journal puts them though... hopefully I don't miss any important. Are there any awesome side-missions I should be aware of?
Also... the Vanguard class is AMAZING.

Finally got some more time to play - I am doing all loyality missions right now before I am heading to the second patch of recruiting. I enjoyed
mission the most, especially at the end, very well made.

does he need spoiler tags? Also, he is really messed up after Omega, is there a possibility to get him out unharmed?

i tried to make a Shep based on halle berry, but I got this crazy evil looking shepard instead.
Anyone have any idea yet when th hammerhead missions will be ready? I'm sick of checking and being disappointed.
Really pissed off th vehicle wasn't standard part of th game like ME1. I have no fucking clue what everyone was crying about... I loved the vehicular planet exploration.

voltron said:
People were complaining about the controls, but Bioware heard the complaints and thought people hated the vehicle exploration element period.
God, ME2 would have been so much better if they'd kept the vehicle elements, hopefully they'll be back for ME3 proper, and not just a few linear missions.

I don't mind the decision in and of itself of not to include the vehicle, but its bullshit that they include the vehicle in the description for the Normandy hangar, as being housed there. And over one month later it's not there.
Zen said:
For me, it wasn't the controls, it usually the emptiness and the shallow missions - drive around, find a base, kill the husks (why is it always husks, the worst enemies in the game to fight?), and leave. Bring Down the Sky was an example of it done well, but I still prefer exploring on foot (which ME2 has in some of the side missions).
