mikeszekely Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 See? Singing=life. Also, has anyone heard of Morinth dying yet? I kinda have a theory that she's effectively immortal in the game. I think you might be the only one on these boards that recruited her over Samara
David Hingtgen Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Which means I'm the only one with an asari commando on the team. I've wanted that since ME 1. And I want one in ME 3, too. PS---I meant, I also haven't heard anyone on any other forum having her die either.
eugimon Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 He sang for me, was a constant on my team during the final mission, and he lived for me. Jack I understand, but Mordin? He's like the best character in the game against everything except a few enemies that put up shields. Especially when you max his cold and fire attacks and they become area-of-effect attacks. Mordin kept running into fire and dying when I used him early on to do zaeed's loyalty mission, after than I never used him again. I had my own biotics for area effect attacks and so I ended up using garrus for sniping and then tali for geth missions or whoever else the loyalty mission was for
BeyondTheGrave Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 anyone have a male shepard that keeps kaidian alive?
Scream Man Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 There has to be some kind of random factor then, because I did the same things you did on my first play through and lost none of the crew (though I did select some different people). Mordin wound up randomly dead however in the final cutscene. Thats EXACTLY what happened to me, and i couldnt figure out why. Not only that, but the voiceover from joker says that "They got everyone out" so I couldnt figure out why Mordin had died at all!

I had my own biotics for area effect attacks and so I ended up using garrus for sniping and then tali for geth missions or whoever else the loyalty mission was for Ah, see, I was a soldier. Occasionally, I'd order Mordin to use his fire attack, and by the time I'd leveled it up the whole way he was taking most enemies from full health to zero. And I never had a problem with him running out and getting shot to death; it was Tali who'd do that.
Duke Togo Posted February 7, 2010 Author Posted February 7, 2010 anyone have a male shepard that keeps kaidian alive? Right here. Ashley was a xenophobe, and I have a thing for blue chicks.
BeyondTheGrave Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 (edited) Right here. Ashley was a xenophobe, and I have a thing for blue chicks. ok... so what happened when you met on horizion if you met that is. Also anyone complete the mineral quest on on me1? Edited February 7, 2010 by BeyondTheGrave
kaiotheforsaken Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 (edited) he sang for me as well, told me he wasn't interested in mating with humans, used him for zaeed and Jack's loyalty missions and nothing else, didn't use him at all during the final mission, had his uber omni tool upgrade and he lived. He did the same things for me, but I used him less and he died. The singing is quite awesome though. Interesting bits about Mordin in the thread. He does mention that "holding the line" is not his style. So maybe keeping him with you or sending him back with the crew is a good way to keep him alive. Edited February 7, 2010 by kaiotheforsaken
Duke Togo Posted February 7, 2010 Author Posted February 7, 2010 ok... so what happened when you met on horizion if you met that is. Also anyone complete the mineral quest on on me1? He's not happy with you. He can't believe you were alive and never contacted him, and he can't believe you were working with Cerberus. He basically pulls a paragon Shepard on you; the ends don't justify the means. And yes, I did, I completed everything.
eugimon Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 That's the same response my paragon fem-shep got (did not romance him in ME1)

Or is it b/c I started another play through?
David Hingtgen Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 48,000 eezo? That's more than you can use in the entire game IIRC. Anyways---I'm surprised no one's posted the "code" for any of their Shepard faces.

Anyways---I'm surprised no one's posted the "code" for any of their Shepard faces. I know it kinda freaked me out. I'm just using the default face. I know ppl have figured out the npc faces already.
David Hingtgen Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 As in using NPC faces on Shepard, as in model-swapping? Got a link?
BeyondTheGrave Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 So far the site is a work in progress but there are a few good and not so good faces http://www.masseffect2faces.com/ seach for micheal jackson I'll keep looking though

David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 I thought you meant actually using NPC faces (which was figured out quite early in ME 1 for PC), since using NPC hair on Shep has already been done for ME 2 for PC. And my Gillian Anderson is way better than the one there.
BeyondTheGrave Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Yeah I probably should have been more specific. But the Obama one looks pretty good.
kaiotheforsaken Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 (edited) There is way more femsheps than I would have expected. I wish I could get decent pictures of Shepard from the console version. Edited February 8, 2010 by kaiotheforsaken
David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Yeah, I'd upload my FemShep if I could get decent pics. (at least a few people have commented on mine being good, as likenesses go)
David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 PC modders already got Eclipse armor: http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q310/li...pg?t=1265492435 I so wanted that. (Though at the moment it seems it's only possible to equip as "casual clothes" and not in combat)

(Though at the moment it seems it's only possible to equip as "casual clothes" and not in combat) Links to mods? Anyway, I'm amused at the thought of Shepard coming back from a mission in one set of armor, changing into another, and acting casual.
David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 People post their results a lot more than they post how they did it, but the main threads for PC modding are: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/103/index/889432 http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage....;topic=53316000 And Texmod works just as well as it did for ME 1. (still, I want model-swapping above all else---I'd probably buy the PC version if I could have Liara's model used for Morinth, etc)
David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Oooh, long-range shotgun! (I don't expect that armor to look good on FemSheps, since it looks like a recolored Inferno armor)
Scream Man Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 yeah and that armour looks good too. If the helmet comes off that's perfect!
Duke Togo Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 yeah and that armour looks good too. If the helmet comes off that's perfect! It won't. And who the hell rolls a Shock Trooper? Maybe on Insanity, I guess, but really, these "complete" armor sets leave something to be desired. How about something for those of us who like to shoot things, either rapid fire style or at range.
David Hingtgen Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I'm still waiting for light/medium armor. Like is apparently in the game already, just unused for some reason: http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q310/li...pg?t=1265492435 (that's not opening scene armor--opening scene armor seems to be the heavy version IIRC)
kaiotheforsaken Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Yeah, opening scene armor was the old Heavy model. I don't mind if they don't include the light/medium, I always thought they looked lousy compared to heavy.
David Hingtgen Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Heavy armor on a FemShep looks REALLY bulky at times. (most of the time IMHO). Light armor on ManShep and heavy armor on FemShep look equally "odd". (mainly because the heavy armor in ME 2 is even heavier than ME 1's was---if it was DA:O, it'd be classified as massive armor) ME 1 heavy armor on a female could look good, but ME 2's is just too much.
BeyondTheGrave Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) When ME 1 characters meet in ME 2, they almost never acknowledge it. (Shepard excluded). You'd think that if I bring Tali along when I meet Liara the first time, they might at least say "hi" to each other. Most of these people haven't seen each other in years it seems, yet the reunions go un-remarked upon. Ashley does if you take Garrus with you to Horizon. No hello , but more of a you too type thing.

eugimon Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Ashley does if you take Garrus with you to Horizon. No hello , but more of a you too type thing. Yeah, I don't think the crew from ME1 were on particularly good terms with anyone else. I can't really see ashley giving a rats ass about any of the aliens she had to work with, Liara and garrus go way dark, tali was always in it for herself as was Wrex.
bluemax151 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Mordin never sang for me, I never used him for anything but I did do his loyalty mission. He lived so I dunno seems from what people are posting it's pretty random.
David Hingtgen Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Tali plays poker. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqIxhhhsV40...feature=related
