I wonder if soldier class will have anything different on ME2. ME1 soldier class was boring to me.

Each class macam got 1-2 unique ability.

Soldier got bullet time (max payne style)
Infiltrator got cloaking
Vanguard got teleport
Adept got some jedi bomb thing
Engineer got bots (hellgate?)
Forgot what sentinel got....

I would have loved that if not for the Steam promo sale. But I don't think they would bundle a CE version of ME2 so... meh.

i heard that in ME1 solider can use abilities if you unlocked achievements by using the abilities 75 times. yes? no?

the abilities achievement, must be yourself use the abilities, or team mates use also can ar?

Mmm betul. Like if I use Sabotage 75 times on my Infiltrator, I can use the ability on my next Soldier. I used that and hacked in AI Hacking for my old Soldier. Too bad about the saved games...

Must be yourself. Unfortunately that means you have to play through as one of each THEN start a new character to use.

I also read that you get bigger import save bonuses if your character is level 60. I don't feel like playing again and it's not possible on one playthrough.

so best is to play

1st run: 100% tech
2nd run: 100% biotics

then 3rd run:

soldier, can use all 100% tech and biotics?

minimum 3 play throughs, with 1st and 2nd play through 100% tech / bio classes?

aw shat i am vanguard.

I think you can only choose one extra ability. So it's either Singularity or Overload or Barrier, etc., no Singularity AND Barrier. But you can always hack the rest in I forgot how liao. I want to add 2 abilities to my Shep.

oooh i see okay.

hmmm then which vanguard biotics ability bestest for soldier ah?

or i can forget about replaying with solider and just stick with vanguard lol.

The only reason to play Soldier is to unlock assault rifles . But since ME2 has some training system, everyone can use liao. You can change class also in ME2 when you import your save.

ME1 Vanguard I'm not familiar. Throw? I don't know the skill set since I don't like biotic classes. But ME2 Vanguard is so powerful with the Charge teleport thing leh.

Screw the assault rifles... It was either the shotgun or sniper rifle. The former because it works great with lift and the rockets are awesome and for the latter, is that it gives you range and great DPS

i was never interested in getting mass effect before this even though i heard it's a good game (i am more of a dragon age type) but after seeing infiltrator class vid, i felt like getting it now. and seeing mass effect is a trilogy, i think i should buy mass effect 1 as well..

haiz now i hv to get rm300.or if anyone planning to sell their mass effect cd to me,pm me yea

It's a great game but not like Dragon Age. Personally I love both but Mass Effect is more action-oriented.

I also thought I have to spend rm300... but Mass Effect on Steam is only usd$19.99 and that day they had sale and it was usd$4.99. That was when I grabbed my original copy. BioWare can have my money.

ah really?darn it,if i know i would have grabbed that deal.but i only hv debit card,so i guess i stil cant buy from steam..

and i prefer hardcopy than soft copy

If you're a collector I suggest you get a new copy for Mass Effect 1. Why? Because of the limited number of activation you have with the game because of the DRM. Try look back at a few posts before this, they were small talks about it.

I used my Maybank Debit card to buy wor. I also bought CS:S for my friend.

Me too . I like physical manuals and cases. The CE for ME2 was a no brainer.

Lol, really? . I kind of heard similar things actually but when I saw the others were talking about that issue this evening so I thought I heard wrong . Sorry helldagger for the wrong intel .

Edit: Nope, the DRM is still there actually but has been relaxed a bit, here's a LINK that I think explains it better.
