I have been literally been like this all week trying to get the 'Survive all waves' achievement on the Arrival DLC. Any tips on how to survive all rounds? I am playing as a Soldier. I think if I had biotics (at least singularity) I would have a better chance. I have the arc projector but I am still taking Ls. :sadcam:

Me1 is still the best gaming moment ever for me. I beat that game over 45 times.

Me2 wasn't bad me3 I beat once and never touched again :heh:

I finished my final play through of Mass Effect 2 so I been watching some videos of things I never did. Here are a couple I found interesting:



I never considered bringing Legion with me to Tali's trial :ohhh:
It would feel so wrong :mjlol:




Not sure why you would consider bringing two aliens into an area with a disease tailored to kill them :mindblown:

Just finished the Omega DLC and Aria is one bad asari :ehh: She is definitely one of the more interesting characters in the series.

I guess I wasn't Paragon/Renegage enough to get this ending :sadcam:

I just finished my last play through of Mass Effect as a Sentinel femshep. The game was a lot easier playing as a Sentinel class. I was just mowing through bad guys with biotic combos with Liara. When they got too close, I just detonated my shield. This was all before I got the Valkyrie assault rifle and the Flare ability from Aria.




This go around, I played the Citadel DLC. Hands down it is the best addition to the series. The mission versus my clone was fun but challenging. My favorite part was being able to choose Wrex. :bryan: Dude put in so much work especially against the Cerberus heavies. Afterwards, being able to just hang out with each character in a laid back setting was very gratifying. Other than hanging with my boo Liara, I think I enjoyed inviting over specialist Traynor to most. You guys know why. :shaq:




The Armax arena was also very fun. I'm glad they gave us an opportunity to fight with characters from ME 2. Grunt and Samara were usually my go to in ME 2 and I always chose them in the arena. I still didn't beat the Collector elites. They are way too tough. :whew:




The toughest decision I made was with Legion. I didn't do his loyalty mission so he didn't survive the suicide mission. I wasn't expecting to see him in part 3 but he was there. Every time I called him Legion he was like 'We are not Legion, Legion died.' :mjcry: I ended up not letting him let the Geth ascend. It was rough pulling the trigger with the renegade option.




At the end, I told the catalyst to go fukk himself and didn't choose an option. Despite the ending, it was a great ride. The characters made the game worth playing. I wish they made a way to end the Reapers and continued to grow the universe. It would have been interesting to see the choices I made in the trilogy carry over to a new game with a new character. They could have let you play as a an N7 recruit coming up through the ranks. Maybe let you choose a different race either Turian, Asari, or Human. As you rise through the ranks, you could choose Ashley or James as a mentor. Eventually some new evil emerges and you will have to address it. Of course, Shepgawd would make an appearance.

I had a vanguard on my run so charge + shotgun really helped a lot. If you're a Soldier, you should be leaning on Adrenaline Rush constantly, use Incendiary or Disruptor rounds. Sniper Rifles + AR = Easy headshot kills. Bring two biotics if you need the combo's, ultimately AR will make everything a cake walk.


Simple...

I copped the PS3 collection for $20 2 years ago and played them back to back :whew: ME2 is one of my favorite games from that generation right up there with TLOU.

I've tried replaying like 4 or 5 times and I can never make it past 10 hours. I got the trilogy for the PS3 but I just don't think the game is for me.

I told myself I'd give the series one last try before throwing it completely to the bushes
