Mass Effect 2 Message Board  

Straight to the point: except for a few side quests the game is fully passed through.

What we have:

1) All game is

1) All main missions are complete
2) All characters are recruited
3) All squad members' missions are passed and their full loyalty is gained
4) Normandy is fully upgraded (its VERY important, but dont ask - you'll see)
5) Almost all the side quests that I've found are passed (there ain't many, which is surprising!)
6) All characters are fully leveled up (I've passed half of the game without trainer, but then got annoyed and just leveled them up to the max - leveling system is boring in this game)
7) After half of the game cheated myself resources (with trainer) because collecting them is utterly dull - ship fuel runs out incredibly fast, no real room for free flights (shame, BioWare).

In all, game has been passed in two days, and for such a short time, the playthrough is very decent. And all the side quests that are left you can finish up after the end of the game (very convenient, thanks BioWare, finally).

And dont **** off my Shepard, take good care of her!!! I've been playing her ever since the first game (imported saves).

If you cant download from either, ask someone who did to make a mirror for you. Cheers.

P.S. Yep, yep - "Considering this game has not been officially released yet, any topics containing any parts about the game regardless of spoiler warnings will be deleted harshly" - I've read. I do not really include any information about the game here. Only a small personal opinion without giving any details. As for saves - hey, you never know who was in the tester team, right? That's a hint.

You said, u played with this char ME1 .. so pls. tell us how did u walk trought.

Renegade or ..
kill the arachni queen ?
DLC done?


some "very" important informations for playing with ur char.

Hm, didnt think its so important. After all, you all prefer to play your own chars, my saves are mostly for familiarizing yourselves with the game. But sure:

I've passed the first game as full-time paragon. That should answer all your questions. Kaiden killed, Ashley saved, Wrex is alive, romance is with Liara, Rachni queen is saved, colony of Feros is saved, Saren killed himself, let go Fist. Helped to bring in this Administrator on Noveria - dont remember the name... Yeah, its all Paragon.

And when I think about it, you are very right - ALL of it, every single thing has a great impact on Mass Effect 2 story and the characters you meet along the way. Some (very many) won't be there if you killed them - so I suggest you take paragon path in ME 1. You'll miss some NPCs and quests otherwise!

And when I think about it twice - you may even want to play with my saves. Some things are quite hard to achieve. Like quickly react to renegade or paragon actions, some doors will stay forever closed if failed to hack - some with NPCs behind them. So... In all, yeah. Consider it worth your while.

Second Game is passed as Paragon too. With an exception of cool renegade actions (tied to mouse buttons, not dialogues) like easing yourself fights. As breaking necks, throwing people out of windows, blowing them up... It's not really evil path, I believe, just when you have a chance to kick someone's ass before they start kicking yours, why not.

ouh of course it is important ^^

e.g. u saved the rachni queen .. so this is a advantage for ME2 and for ME3 ..

ouh yes of course, u can import ME2 Saves for ME3 and all the things what have u done in ME1 will help u in ME2 and ME3. or u'll miss something in ME2, ME3 then.

I agree with you, if you didn't play ME1 you miss way too much story/quests.



Spoiler:

1 other question, if you import that save, do you automatically get the loyalty of the squad members?

And can anyone confirm that importing a completed save gives you all the weapon upgrades + ship upgrades?

BTW you say you did all the N7 missions (sidequests), did you find a helmet on one of them? I can't find one of the helmets that they show in the Armor customization trailer, (the one with blue Eyes like from the mercs) and no i don't mean the one with 10% negotiation bonus.

BTW you say you did all the N7 missions (sidequests), did you find a helmet on one of them?

I found two or two helmets in all, if im not mistaken. Both are pretty cool. One looks somewhat insect-like, another looks like Garrus' (aim at the eye).

1 other question, if you import that save, do you automatically get the loyalty of the squad members?

This, Mass Effect 2 save? You cant get that from beginning, I was gaining their loyalty as I was passing through the missions they gave me, and I have collected all the nesessary Normandy's parts near the end of the game also. Its not possible to do from the beginning. Even if you import your character in the new game, I believe. Because all those things are parts of the plot, of the story.
