Anyone using 64-bit here? I have to reformat and install Windows 7 again cos I'm using RC7100 and since retail comes with a 64-bit disc, I'm thinking why not? I just hope there aren't any issues with ME2.

Registered game owners finally get custom avatars on the social site. Not as great as Dragon Age's character portraits but it's something. I love Legion

I think the list is a few pages back. For me :» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Tunnels : Tali First fire team : Garrus Second fire team : Garrus Escort : Mordin Everyone loyal, all upgrades. The first time I did it : Tunnels : Legion First fire team : Garrus Second fire team : Garrus Escort : Zaeed Also worked but Mordin died so I reloaded. |

yea, i finished the game and i found out this is the method to achieve no one left behind plus my oldest load files cannot choose my first fire team anymore. I am pretty much lazy to replay the game, damn bioware give me hint on loading scene telling me that whatever i do in ME2, effect in ME3.
I probably predict in ME3 that some of my team member in ME2 might not join my crew or some team member might give me side mission to do which either give experience or give some awesome weapon and i "almost" certainly believe Ashley will join me in ME3 since i do not help » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « This post has been edited by Plant: Feb 17 2010, 11:25 PM |

You guys liked Ash? The xenophobic soldier? I'll admit that she was a far more interesting character than Kaidan was, but she had little redeeming features other than her "deathwish".
That being said, I expect her/Kaidan to pull a Carth and come back with a promotion or admiral in ME3 |

Ash wasnt exactly xenophobic. She seemed more like the conservative type to me. Her distrust towards aliens might have also been due to her granpa and Shanxi.

In KotOR, I disliked Carth especially after the big reveal and the Saul Karath part. Kaiden isn't much better. I got the 'best friend' vibe from Jacob more than from Kaiden even though Kaiden's conversations seemed more personal.

She stated many times that she hated and distrusted them. The first time you talk to her in the Normandy, she questioned your orders to allow them free reign around the ship. That's xenophobia man.The issue with her grandpa was over the fact that he was the only human admiral to ever surrender and what has her sister (Shanxi right?) got to do with anything? Throughout the entire game, she constantly makes you 2nd guess any attempt to give aliens any power (Especially those scenes after missions where Liara offers to help) Added on February 18, 2010, 12:33 am QUOTE(secondrate @ Feb 18 2010, 12:25 AM) In KotOR, I disliked Carth especially after the big reveal and the Saul Karath part.

What I meant with that Carth remark was, that Carth came back in the sequel as an admiral.

I don't remember being able to change Ash (Or any other character for the matter) in ME1. You *can* convince her that her thinking is bad or whatever, but in the next cutscene, she still exhibits the same xenophobic behaviour. No Bioware game to date has allowed you to shape how an NPC grows. In most cases, you're just a catalyst for a change that happens out of your control. Only Obsidian did with KOTOR2.

Shanxi was the colony mentioned in her story on her granddad. Yes... Admiral Carth. Shudder. Maybe not as much as KotOR2, but here are some examples. Note, I did rush through KotOR2. Dragon Age : 'Character hardening' of Alistair and Leliana. Mass Effect 1 : Influencing Kaiden until he calls Udina a '*******'. I can't remember if he does this even if you don't play female Shepard and kill Ash. Making Ash less xenophobic. |

In Dragon Age its more of the characters are either normal or they like you. ME1's example is also pretty typical of what Bioware have done in the past. Basically, the character's growth is always the same... just a matter of whether you are willing to "activate" it.Shanxi was the colony mentioned in her story on her granddad. Yes... Admiral Carth.

In KotOR 2, you could turn almost all your companions into super evil muthas or paragons of justice and virtue (And into jedis or sith if you were persistent enough)... It wasn't some static veiled static "level up" mechanic. You literally could influence whether they were evil or good. Now, THAT is character influencing.
