Re: mass effect
Seems like a solid game so far...
FYI high stakes quasar in the casino is +EV. If it didn't take so long to display the next number or you could play higher stakes (maybe later in the game? I just started) then it might be worthwhile. I guess if you need a little extra cash this might help out. Optimal strategy is: 0-2: hit 4-7 3-5: hit 1-8 6-8: hit 4-7 9-12: hit 1-8 13-15: hit 4-7 16: hit 1-8 17+: stay You win 44 bucks per game, so it only takes 20 games to earn enough to buy terrible armor or something equally worthless. Yes!! |

Re: mass effect
You become a serious killing machine once you get the decent weapons, also Spoiler: <font color="white"> i just finished the mission where you have to decide whether you want to kill the arachni queen or set her free and I gotta say that it was one tough decision to make</font>

Re: mass effect

It is the same style of combat of Baulders Gate? Is it more traditional RPG Combat? just curious, thanks. Thinking about going out to pick it up later today possibly |

Re: mass effect
The closest thing I can compare the combat to is Kingdom Hearts, very much a hybrid action/RPG.
You can literally "pause" the action and select targets to apply "spells" to. You can also pause action to switch weapons. Its not like Baldurs Gate, because that was more action, and its not turned based at all like a regular RPG. The system takes some adjusting, but man, its pretty damn sweet once you get it down. Thug, I picked the Infiltrator class. I am enjoying it quite a bit. You have a lot of tech skills so decryption is easier. You also have decent combat skills. I would like to be able to train with the assualt rifle, but the pistol and sniper rifle work well. I also really like being able to use Damping, Sabotage, and Overlord against opponents. I am seriously leaning torwards using something with Biotic powers next time through simply because throwing and lifting people is [censored] awesome and funny. Soldier strikers me as very straightforward, but I haven't tried it. |

Re: mass effect
Hit level 50 so now I can buy the master spectre gear/weapons, but I already had a better piece of armor on my main guy. Which made me go wtf, I guess Predator X is better than Titan X.
It does look alot cooler though I must say, its metallic black with red stripes, pretty badass. |

Re: mass effect
Some gameplay tips i read on the ign forums. No spoilers.
Also when driving the Mako hold down LT then click in the Right Stick for a scoped view. After you complete primary objectives on Therum, Noveria or Feros many new side assignments open, as well as random codex to find mainly at the Citadel (Docks for example Normandy codex) Maxing out Paragon or Renagade points also unlock new side assignments (Using these skills also unlocks spaces in your stats to add LVL points to them) You should only go for Paragon or Renagade during your first career, 75 points in each is not possible your first go around. Scholar achievement can be done talking with crew/people on the Normandy and Citadel (also talk to the tour VI's in the Citadel) you can achieve this before any major story line. To reach LVL 60 you must finish the Main story and choose to "continue" your career from the start. Any Ally achievment (Krogan Ally for example) you must have this member in your squad for the majority of your career this means more then the main story line! Earning the Rich achievment will unlock something. |
