I think there's more to his/her death than meets the eye. Mayb there's some really big plot twist in the game?

Does Mass Effect 1 still have that 5 installation limit DRM?
If so, I hope the 2nd one doesn't include that. I won't mind buying 2nd hand games anyways. |

"Players will be able to carry over their characters from the original Mass Effect. "
from what i've heard the decisions you made from the first game(providing that you still have the save game-file) will influence on your character in the 2nd game. |

if we still can use our old save file from Mass Effect 1 and Shepard is dead, i think we will play as Shepard's clone or apprentice in Mass Effect 2.

Just my opinion after listening to it around 40 times
 . Anyway the end song, M4 Part II was rock-ish. Not too pro on music genres. I still find it strange Dragon Age trailer used that Marilyn Manson song  .This post has been edited by secondrate: Jun 25 2009, 07:45 PM |

New Mass Effect PC DLC available for purchase
Posted Aug 25th 2009 6:00PM by John Callaham Filed under: Downloads, Expansions, RPG, Mass Effect After over a year of waiting, PC games can finally download the second (and presumably last) downloadable content for BioWare's sci-fi RPG Mass Effect. The DLC, titled Pinnacle Station, can be found at Electronic Arts' downloadabe store for $5. The download gives players of Mass Effect access to training facility at Pinnacle Station where players can test their combat skills in 12 different scenios in a holo-deck style of setting. There's also a final, 13th, mission, where things get real and you and your crew could be in danger. You can earn new weapons and items in the missions that you can take with you in the main game. It adds about two to three more hours of gameplay. Your character has to have achieved Spectre status before checking out the Pinnacle Station missions. |

Mass Effect 2 Collector's Edition announced
Posted Nov 5th 2009 11:00AM by John Callaham Filed under: RPG, Mass Effect Series It's not exactly a shock at this point but today BioWare and Electronic Arts announced plans to release a Collector's Edition of their upcoming sci-fi RPG sequel Mass Effect 2. Due out on January 26 alongside the standard edition the PC version will cost $59.99. So what do you get for that extra $10? Well we do like the tin case packaging that you can see to the right. You also get an extra behind-the-scenes DVD, a 48 page art book and the first issue of Dark Horse's upcoming Mass Effect Redemption comic book. The Collector's Edition will also have some unique in-game weapons and armor to use. We just hope that stuff isn't as hard to redeem as the Dragon Age: Origins extra content is turning out to be.

Woot, I finished ME1 last weekend only (bought it with the Steam offer) and I have to say it's one of the most immersive game I played for quite a while.
Just with it was longer as the end felt a bit "rushed" to me » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I am keeping my saves for that for sure, now starting a female Shepard Renegade to try to unlock most of the stuff (I played Parangon Vanguard at first). |

If I start a new career like as a Soldier and unlock the achievements for Rifle and Sniper, does that mean that when I go back to my Vanguard save and that a new game with it, I can now spent talent points for Rifle/Sniper?

It was all over the news. HARDCORE PORNOGRAPHY IN VIDEO GAME or something like that, how absurd. I can't believe Bioware had to go through that just to show gamers a couple of super lame "sex scenes". All I saw was just basically kissing and hugging (and a brief view of the character's buttocks). will there be xes scene?? laugh'd hard on that stuff, aliens with human be together haha. btw, a must play game.

The sex scene were really really limited to be honest (I only saw one so far, with the blue female alien (Liana?)), some tv or newspaper advertisement for shampoo show more than that and they are way more easily seen by kids...
After finishing ME1 so recently I can say I am looking forward to the 2nd, especially if the choice you made in the 1st have some influence in it and all. I really enjoyed the universe they created, nothing REALLY new or awesome, but it was well put together and coherent. |

Also, they said you can recruit your old teammates if you did them right in ME1. Sexciting! |

But the video of Garrus is on the 360 version. So clunky. I prefer PC anytime. But so cool the new armor, weapon mechanics (switching ammo on the fly) and animations (jumping over barriers). Fuuyoh!!
I wonder what our preorder bonuses are. The armor sets and if TSB will give t-shirts or stuff again. The CE already loaded with stuff, better than DA's, so definitely getting that. |

It's only a few weeks away
I guess they are still trying to push their Dragon Age stock.I don't have my old save, so it would be somewhat annoying if they killed Wrex off in the default continuity. Grunt isn't nearly as interesting a character and he certainly doesn't look like a Battlemaster. |

Wrexx was indeed awesome, I liked his black humour and brutal approach, I got the save with him alive at the end
I can't wait to see the next episode of the story, I have to admit I did not know it was supposed to be a trilogy at first and was a bit "what? finish?" at the end of the 1. Good stuff they follow the story according to the decisions you took (like I killed the Bug Queen, didnt kill Wrexx etc.) This post has been edited by Gormaz: Dec 4 2009, 11:31 AM |

They reworked the controls and interface for combat so it was far more fun than the console version.Perhaps they should've removed the "lifts", but they did do some dialogue for those sections and thus removing it would've made those parts unusable. Anyway, this time, its coming to the PC AND Xbox on release, so the PC isn't an afterthought like before. |

It is much less clunky than the 360 version at any rate. Of course framerate sucks but ME2 has apparently fixed that.
I also don't see what is so bad about the lifts. I do walk everywhere but not a big deal to me. The bigger deal for me is the cringe worthy voice acting of certain characters (read : male Shepard). I don't see how that is fixed in the preview videos especially the Garrus one. |

Well she has been in a lot of games of late (Brutal Legend, The Old Republic, Mass Effect 2), so perhaps she may have been a bit too overcrowded. But if you notice, she commonly appears in every other Bioware game series that is released: Baldur's Gate Knights of the Old Republic Mass Effect It is very unfortunate that Alpha Protocol doesn't let you choose your gender. Otherwise, I'd start a frigging petition (In spite of the fact that I hate them) just to make sure she's in it. |

This game will come in 2 discs worth of content, presumably dual-layer, and 15GB minimum HDD space. I wonder how much content do they stuff to need 2 discs. Also, no more elevator loading, they replaced them with normal loading screen hahaha. I believe the elevator loading is an Xbox issue, because it's super fast on decent PCs.

Oh most definitely was because of the Xbox. It was part of that silly movement of "hiding" loading screens by forcing you to wade through something in the game with no actual gameplay. |

Reports say they will stop using weapon skills, so all classes can use the same weapons (assault rifle, machine pistol, heavy pistol, rocket launcher, shotgun, etc) effectively. Shotgun sentinel incoming!!
Probably they will also do away with the ME1 skill system, no more +1 rifle +1 rifle +1 rifle. Most talent points will give you some cool ability to use ala Dragon Age. |

I think Hellgate London did the same thing ("Crouching" as a skill still serves as my greatest example of "RPGifying" gone wrong) Seriously though, what about all the weapon based skill abilities? I know most of them were quite similar (While others were downright useless) but does this mean no more shotgun that shoots ROCKETS? |

Most likely class-specific weapon abilities will stay, but skill will be universal, sorta like borderlands.
This removes the annoyance of lanjiao shooting if you use non-class weapon, and being completely useless when enemies (like robo-Saren) keep overheating your gear. |

Well if they keep the class specific weapon abilities, its almost the same thing I guess since the weapon abilities were tied to your weapon skill before.This removes the annoyance of lanjiao shooting if you use non-class weapon, and being completely useless when enemies (like robo-Saren) keep overheating your gear. Plus, that was the exact purpose of the engineer... To screw up your gear. If you could easily just swap stuff out to counter it, then its kinda useless. |

Dunno, it's probably just more streamlined anyways. There's something weird about taking out big turrets/robots with a stupid small pistol but shotgun can miss completely at point blank.

Speaking of the Engineer class, Bioware released a new Engineer demo. Apparently the ME2 engineer can have bots, hopefully they will do it better than Hellgate engineers.http://www.youtube.com/v/dJWhGazhpNo Added on December 11, 2009, 8:09 pmhttp://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/masseffect2workingtitle/video/6242706 Voice Actors: Martin Sheen, Tricia Heifer and Seth Green giving interviews.

Ah crap... Another expensive CE (Not surprising after DA)...
But I do have a nice RM50 voucher now (Sadly just about 2200 points shy of another)... But it is a lot of money... But its CE is a lot more attractive than the CE for DA... But I make it a point never to spend more than 200 on a single game... But I did save all that money from missing out during the Christmas sales... But... Ah screw it... I'm getting it. |

No biggie, the CE still comes with its own armour and weapon set the chitinous Collector armor and the Collector assault rifle . |

Hold your horses there dude, I never said DA was bad, just that its facial animations were subpar compared to ME's (Seriously, its like no one in DA can open their mouths large enough for anything but their tongues to fit through). The most jarring example? The yawnings... Damn, they looked horrible... Its like the characters are blowing bubbles but a yawn sound comes out.DA's greatest strength is the party combat.

Meaning no release day for me . . Anyway I'm trying out Airpak this time. Poslaju is charging RM 2 for the CE, I'm staying just in Shah Alam anyway. I checked with TSB already, this is due to the weight limit impose by different postal services, TSB only subsidize the postal fee, so it's not free . I think some of us had a bit of confusion about this last time went we all pre-ordered Dragon Age. |

I think some of us had a bit of confusion about this last time went we all pre-ordered Dragon Age. I stay 10 mins away (but have to cross a highway) but that day really no time to collect. 26th right? My only free day would be 28th and like that might as well have it shipped to me than walk.

Doesn't look like ME2 CE has any extra mission content, so I can safely pass and get the normal edition.
Money has to be saved for Avater blu-ray!  |

Oh I see what you mean, aiya I need to go wash face. Maybe the Cerberus network card gives training/VR missions only who knows.
If the bonus content leads to more alien sex, I would buy. Immediately. |

Chris Priesley has already confirmed the Cerberus card is coming on both Standard and Collector's. The only ingame extra items the CE comes with are the Collector's Armor and Weapon set. The rest are physical media besides the extra DVD. For fans only I guess.

QUOTE(verx @ Jan 11 2010, 03:01 PM) Still wondering whether should get CE version or not. I also had this dilemma hehe but since I'm a huge fan, I went for CE AND it's also rm10 cheaper than DA's CE.48 page artbook (shrunk to fit the case) Issue #1 of Mass Effect : Redemption comic (shrunk to fit the case) 'Limited Edition' Cerberus Network Card Collector Armor and Weapon set Bonus dvd with behind the scenes stuff (of the 'Blur' trailer and more) Steelbook case (case is twice the size of a dvd case) It's the Collectors' Edition, not the Collector's. Better sleep with your M-23 Katana Shotgun in case they want it back Standard also comes with the Cerberus card. Plus we get Terminus gear which is awesome. I prefer it to the Inferno.

You got anything urgent to use money in between the 4 days before the game release? The pre-order finished on 22 Jan, the game comes out on 26 Jan. Nothing to lose if you pay earlier because you're still paying the same amount anyway even after the pre-order. Just try to get the most out of what you pay . But if you anything urget in between that, than of course RL should take priority |

I didn't mind the Mass Effect activation limit. It was like 5 and I didn't need the disc. This reminds me... need to reinstall that back to get into the groove again... after I finish off DA... after I get some time...
Grrr |

QUOTE(Deimos Tel`Arin @ Jan 11 2010, 05:15 PM) oh fuuuu- i hate physical drm with activation limits. Judging from DRM of Dragon Age Origins.will probably get steam version. if retail box mass effect 1 got activation limit drm, then retail box mass effect 2 will have activation limit drm as well? I don't think they gonna implement that. I actually don't mind the five limit thingie, except I have tried revoking 2 activations prior to formating my HDD. But it didn't work (it seems to work previously) and now I am left with 3. |

hmm
http://meforums.bioware.com/viewtopic.html...10074&forum=144 QUOTE Digital Rights Management (DRM) - The boxed/retail PC version of Mass Effect 2 will use only a basic disk check and it will not require online authentication. This is the same method as Dragon Age: Origins. Digital versions will use the retailers protection system. okay you are right. |

I'm guessing they're not bothering this time since they're going to incorporate the Bioware Social Network into it (Like with DA)... which is kinda like DRM anyway.

They should also come up with a bundle.
Like Mass Effect bundle, that comes with Mass Effect 1 and Mass Effect 2. Good for new players too. |

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

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

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. |

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.

well it works for me and so i deem it to be proper and working.
so far all the games i have can work like this, no problem. steam is not dumb. on a clean install OS PC, all the games will run and install something first if running them (steam games) for the first time on a clean install OS. also, steam games will not show up on the windows add / remove program list one. besides, you just want more clicks for your blog post.

then again, you are probably right about some items.
i.e. DLC + DRM so far the games i have do not have DLC or DRM when i copy pasted over a clean install OS. i did encounter some problem with l4d2 when i copy pasted over to Win 7 32 bit. i solved the problem by doing a file integrity check and it downloaded some new files. no problem when i switched back to clean install XP Pro sp2 now i got riddick with TAGES DRM and Borderlands + zombieland DLC. belum try this method lagi. conclusion: long winded, safe method : listen to eddy fast, a bit risky method : listen to deimos This post has been edited by Deimos Tel`Arin: Jan 12 2010, 12:11 PM |

Well to get the best possible transition from ME1 to ME2 you would need to either do the anal playthrough (kill planet hostiles on foot etc) or play it twice.

No and the saved game will work also. I used to have the pirated version, now using the Steam version and it works fine.Remember to install the free Bring Down the Sky and 1.02 patch (don't get Pinnacle Station, waste of time and money) after it's done. BDtS will probably have an impact in ME2 and 1.02 fixes things.

Since you have installed the pirated ME, onto your hdd - once steam has created your local cache on your pc in the steamapps folder, you should be able to copy the pirated folder into your steamapps folder (please don't copy the crack file). Steam will then check your files (you may have to verify the integrity of the files) and just download your missing files and any other files that need to be updated. I've used that method before when i didn't want to wait 3 days to dl a legit copy on steam or for changing a retail copy to steam.is there anyone that can share a file called mapsNOR.rar? |

Remember that ME2 is revamping the weapons and armor restrictions, so you can pretty much go with any class combination and not worry about the tank/dps/support dynamic.

Approximately how long to finish ME without side quests and with side quests? Are the side quests longer than the main mission itself?

QUOTE(itsClois @ Jan 13 2010, 11:08 AM) Approximately how long to finish ME without side quests and with side quests? Are the side quests longer than the main mission itself? The side quests take quite some time, since some of them:-requires you to explore a planet to get the entrance to the "dungeon" -requires you to explore a planet to get stuff (for example, ores) -requires you to go to some other planet, and then return back, while at the same time, you still have other stuff to do on the planet you're at. -requires a trigger, for example, squadmember quests (you have to talk to them, encourage/bash, increase approval) I think if I accumulate the time taken for completing side quests and then compare the time to complete main quest, side quests takes longer time. |

While stocks last. " mmm...it seems that pre-order get different set of armor....din realize retail standard version only RM129....RM50 cheaper than steam standard edition ....gotta make decision lol....steam no ned insert disc, retail need??

this will be my first time 'pre-order' on steam...so how does it work after you preorder it? does it just stay 'dormant' until 26 January or will it download all the game first and somehow will install it on the 26 january itself?

Usually you will be able to start downloading it a few days before but it will be "encrypted" and you won't be able to play.
On release day you may have a small update to download that will unlock it. I said "usually" because in some case Steam did not really give much time beforehand to download it, I do hope they don't mess up this one |

I'll be getting ME through retail since I feel sorry for TSB.
Besides, retail for standard edition is far cheaper than on steam and retail for CE is at least the same price as steam but with arguably more "value". I hope this thread does not degenerate into a thread about free t-shirts and posters like the DA:O one. |

Yar, I loved the first one but I got too many games from the Xmas sales, I think I am gonna wait a bit to buy this one. Either try to "forget" it until Steam does some sales later on, or will just buy it later on.

Not quite.
Your ME1 plot-based outcomes will be brought to ME2, and they will be generally be side stories to the main ME2 storyline. If you brought ME1 character to ME2, you'll just get some bonuses depending on the previous ME1 level, but the ME2 character will be a fresh start. |

Bioware has been very successful by just producing epic single player RPGs ever since I'm was still wearing diapers. Though I see there is a potential in ME2 having a multiplayer mode. I'm afraid as of now, there won't be any multiplayer for ME2.

The replayability of it comes from doing the adventure again using different moral choices (kill Y instead of X, kill Z instead of leaving live etc.), different class and co.
Multiplayer could be awesome but I don't think it's on the plan for it. |

I dont think there will be any MP for ME2,as even the single player campaign is good enough alone,and it encourages you to replay the game with a different class and used different decision which will give a very different outcome.

QUOTE(tango25 @ Jan 15 2010, 12:10 PM) Okie. Some questions before i order the game, you guys see any replayability in ME2? Is this Multiplayer? I wiki it and its Single Player. Dude, BioWare games tend to be really replayable. I've finished ME1 almost 10 times, KotOR twice and Dragon Age once with another in the works. You'll love them if you like a game with a good story and characters.ME2 looks more action packed than ME1 Awesome Soldier class! I'll forget my plans of changing Shep's class to Infiltrator. |

Replaying ME now. Preparing Shepard for the next quest. I hope they don't strip Shepard off his/her weapons, armours and, of course, levels.

Anyway... check out the website guys! New wallpaper of the Terminus armor, Shepard's Fight For The Lost vid (I'll embed it here later), Sci vs Fi video and images of the Blood Dragon Armor in ME2 in action. The Universe page has 4 'Classified' squad members Shepard 'The Leader' Fight for the Lost.

Eh strange, it does look ugly, but I still remember a while back before Dragon Age even came out there was a trailer for the Blood Dragon armor for both DA and ME2. The ME2 Blood Dragon Armor in that trailer was quite nice looking compared to the pictures in the link . And yeah, Blood Dragon armor for DA was even more ugly than the one for ME2 . |

ME2 DLC although it is not confirm yet, but lets hope its true The new dlc is a new planet, a new squadmember (he's a bounty hunter that looks like Canderous from KotOR) and some new weapons I think. Sigh... only 8 days to go and more for me because I have to wait for postage. |

That's supposedly part of the mystery, Shep got killed and the Geth took his armor, later he got resurrected by Cerberus. The mysterious geth appears to be malfunctioning personal stalker (who thinks on his own), although I was kinda hoping he'd be a teammate.
My guess is he would be a cross between liberated Agent Smith (Matrix) and Nordom (Planscape) This post has been edited by Aggroboy: Jan 20 2010, 09:11 AM |

Launch vid is amazing. Shepard's voice is much better than usual and the graphics even though ingame are amazing!
I wonder if that shot of Tali sliding and Shepard yelling her name is her 'death' scene if you don't play your cards right. |

No offense to XBOX360 owners but Mass Effect 2 is more a like shooter than the first. Nothing can be PC when its to FPS games or games that require crosshair aiming. |

Who knows why, rental, staffing, etc might affect the cost, just a wild guess though i thought tsb was the sole distributor for EA games in m'sia and Battlefield bad company 2 CE rm125...that's freaking cheap quite tempting = = . I noticed that his CE for any other games is quite cheaper compared to TSB, but his standard edition is almost the same. Probably TSB is making profits from the CEs eh. Oh, I think he also doesnt have the pre-order bonus for ME2, he stated the reason in one of his post in his thread there |

TSB are the official distributors of the game and thus when they sell it through their one official store, they HAVE to use the RRP. 3rd party retailers can do whatever they want since when they purchase from TSB, they purchase it at dealer prices which means they can slash their prices however much they want (Which just means it eats into their profit margins) i thought tsb was the sole distributor for EA games in m'sia and Battlefield bad company 2 CE rm125...that's freaking cheap quite tempting = = |

Mass Effect's main story was amazing, but the side-quests killed the replay value. Hated them.
Looking at the reviews, looks like they've done away with the generic locations. One thing I'm looking forward to is how me releasing the Rachni queen affects anything. It better well not betray me! Hehe. This post has been edited by lycaphim: Jan 23 2010, 08:15 PM |

.QUOTE(Savor_Savvy @ Jan 23 2010, 11:33 PM) If not mistaken, ME and ME2 for PC don't have built in gamepad compatibility. Correct. The devs already confirmed it. Anyway, ME2's user inferface, etc. is all customize for pc so we get the best experience on keyboard and mouse. That's apparently why they didn't include controller compatibility.Added on January 24, 2010, 12:06 amAh what to do when you can't wait for ME2 to launch (and you don't pirate )? The answer?

I've just watch IGN's video review on ME2, it's noted that the story in ME2 has heavy reference from the 1st game. So for those that have not played the 1st. I suggest you play through atleast the main quest only. Though some side quest has connections to the main story it's not entirely necessary.
Improvements in ME2: 1. class has been revamped for better replayability 2. better exploration - notably space exploration 3. each side quest now have their own environment to explore in; unlike the 1st where 90% of all side quest environment are the same. 4. better menu & inventory layout 5. elevator rides removed 6. slow loading texture in ME are not presence in ME2 7. customizable armor/gear Negatives: 1. rare crashes, glitches This post has been edited by JuzJoe: Jan 24 2010, 12:44 AM |

Don't go into the BioWare forums for a while. It's a spoiler landmine field. Can't these pirates just shut up and disappear?

It wouldn't be so bad (ok yes it would) if they just shut up but they keep parading the fact around and post spoilers. Some are ori owners who got lucky but most are pirates I'll bet.Added on January 24, 2010, 2:45 pmA few spoilers (both ME1 and very tiny bit of ME2) http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage....&topic=53186748 Basically someone outlining the bad points of the game. Only the bad points. Hmm it put down my hype for a bit. This post has been edited by secondrate: Jan 24 2010, 02:45 PM |

Interesting read secondrate.
I am not unhappy they kinda "fixed" the inventory though, having to go through buttload of useless stuff to find that one piece of stuff I wanted wasnt exactly fun or realistic (how did they carry so much crap around btw? Space pockets? ^^). Most of the normal loot you found in ME1 was worthless anyway (especially once you got Specter Gear). I am more worried about the "choices did in ME1 are not that important", that's a big thing when you consider how much Bioware hyped that part. Will definitely still get the game though, but right now I got lots of games to play anyway (Xmas sales were full of win!) |

Im quite disappointed now,as i even went to the point of overclocking my desktop so that i get to enjoy ME2 on recommend.Now,it seems not much point of doing so.
I was really hyped up for the major decisions of ME1 bought over to ME2,but now,what is it for? Just a marketing gimmick. Lack of inventory just makes it another GoW like game. Im glad that there is no more MAKO,but some of the changes,isnt that good. This post has been edited by Cheesenium: Jan 24 2010, 03:28 PM |

I feel kinda let down too but time will tell how good this game is. I won't really put all my trust in that guy's post.I was really hyped up for the major decisions of ME1 bought over to ME2,but now,what is it for? Just a marketing gimmick.

I'm also getting a quad core for this among other things and I got a new hdd last year for DA and this. This post has been edited by secondrate: Jan 24 2010, 03:47 PM |

I'm not going anywhere near that link, but I'd just like to state that the ppl who post at gamefaqs aren't exactly the best judges of games (Add to the fact that they're playing an "advance" copy further enforces that).
