Alg Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Plus you have no control over what happened in the backstory. I mean, the default character put UDINA on the council. I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faux Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 i actually put udina in the council because it was the renegade option vantage is my paragon character. but i might go through ME1 again with a soldier/sentinel edit: ugh my vantage isn't lv 50+ :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riku3220 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 "I am commander Shepard and this is my favorite store in the citadel!"I always bought out the entire store and then intimidated the shopkeep for a discount. :thumbsup: ...why? If it's your first play through you can just barely afford every item in the game, and that is only if you import a rich ME1 character. You have to get the discounts at every store before you buy. Anyways I thought the paragon discount was pretty lame; getting the exact same animation and sound bite for four different stores is kind of lazy.It was funny to see the shopkeeps [cabbage] themselves after I already bought everything from them. I had no money problems at all during my first playthrough. For example, in the Citadel's souvenir shop, I bought out everything. The Renegade discount speech goes something like "These prices are a little too high for me..." and the lady says something which result to my guy shouting out into the Citadel "Hey everyone! This shop discriminates against the poor!" even though I bought everything already. Just for the laughs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy500fan Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I had no money problems at all during my first playthrough. It's impossible to buy every single item the first playthrough without getting the discounts first, so you must have missed something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy500fan Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 You get 200k/50k as long as you have finished ME2 twice, or once from an imported ME1 character. This will be true for every character you make here after. Look at my previous post for other bonuses. Having everyone survive the suicide mission is easy. Just complete the game. Recruitment/loyalty missions make up far more than the main storyline, if you just play the main storyline you are doing it wrong. The game is mostly building your team, the main storyline is kind of a side note. For the suicide mission just chose the right people to do the right job. It's pretty obvious who is best for what, so don't just chose characters you like (like I did :smile: my first playthrough), choose characters that are good for their parts. One no loss combo is Legion:vents, Garrus:team leader both times, Jack:barrier, anyone:crew escort. Tali completes the vents just as well, not sure who else for team leader but some have said Miranda, Samarra/Morinth can both handle the barrier fine also.

I just did what you said and chose the people I liked most, also I didn't bother upgrading the ship at all as I didn't have the money for it, I couldn't be bothered to go about harvesting planets lol. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheValeyard Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Ok so I ordered Mass Effect 1, as I didn't have a 360 when it came out. For £7.99 you can't really go wrong. Just asking which class I should start out with, after looking at some reviews the soldier sounds easy to use, but I like the sound of the hybrid classes that have soldier stuff and the force power things.

Although i'm not sure if this is true as I always choose the Soldier as I prefer to just run in there and shoot everything up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faux Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 i'd recommend either vanguard or adept. biotic powers are crazy fun and overpowered in the first game. stay away from tech based classes. garrus is a badass and you should always have him in your group. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
