I forget to mention this, but I also thought this was a huge improvement that made using powers a lot more enjoyable. Combat in ME1 for me was about maxing out a weapon to decrease the accuracy penalty then only using that weapon and very occasionally throwing a power in when it was off cooldown. ME2 involved switching between all my weapons and throwing powers in every few seconds and it just felt much more awesome to me.A lot of the moves had very long cooldowns before, now these moves can be used very frequently (thank you shockwave spam!).
Stupid question...is there an Earth?
Yes, it's in the local cluster
You know I wonder if they'll ever let us dock there. Without this option its addition seems pretty pointless.
About how many hours did you spend on it? I keep hoping it'll be like 60 hours, but my gut doesn't think so...
I just finished the game. It was amazing! I managed to keep EVERYBODY alive as well.
I think the main story itself was a little lacking, but the character quests and development was superb. The game is very well polished. (it must be a bitch to polish a game like this.. all the cut-scenes and voice-overs..)
I think this game just took the spot at the top of my favorite games list knocking Baldur's Gate down to #2.
You can do that?? I lost 2 in the final mission and it seemed like that was inevitable. Does it depend on who you pick to do what?
Feel free to PM me if we're getting too deep in spoiler territory here.
pretty sure you only lose the ones who aren't loyal. let me guess, you lost miranda/jack (one or the other) and legion/tali (same)?

.If you don't pick the right people to go through the special missions, you lose them. If Garrus or Miranda don't lead the first teams and you send anyone except Legion and Tali through the tunnel, they die. Plus, if Sumara or Jack (maybe Miranda as well) don't do the bug field thing, they die.
I did everything in around 30 hours. I had all upgrades minus the last Assualt Rifle one (I couldn't find it...).
And yes, Slick,who you choose on the final mission decides who will make it.
Also, I believe if you don't upgrade your ship, you get stranded and lose the entire party. I am testing this theory on my second playthrough. I will wait and see if you don't survive based on that.
30 hours for everything without skipping dialogue?
Guess I need to stop falling asleep when I'm scanning as I've done the last two nights.
That crap takes me from wide-awake to dead asleep in less than 5 minutes.
I could be wrong, but I thinknot upgrading the ship means that certain people die during the assault/crash landing. I.e. Tali dies when engineering gets a hole punched in it if you don't upgrade the shields, etc, etc. Of course, this was heresay, so could be innacurate
