I'm just over 35 hours and have to recruit Legion and complete his loyalty mission. I think I have 3 side missions left as well. I've got everyone else and they're loyal and my paragon meter is full.

I'd love to know what I f'ed up with my Zaaed mission. :(

Spoiler:
Did the option to save the people and then the dude got away are the end. Is that what happened for the folks that got him to be loyal? Or is there a time issue and if you do it fast enough you still get to kill the dude at the end? Maybe that was my issue.

Didn't I already answer that question? Perhaps you should wear your helmet more often.

Spoiler:
I did all of that, but I think I must've had a high enough Paragon to get an option to calm him the fuck down and gain his loyalty.

Well..I used whatever highlighted blue option it gave me. I'm going with the game is fucked. Seems to make the most sense.

In all seriousness on the game being f'd though, I did get a complete drop out of all audio during the most climactic moment of Samara's loyalty mission. Serious bummer.

That sucks. Then I see no difference in how you played that mission and how I did.

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
My friend told me a couple days ago that Zaeed's loyalty mission is broken and something about being unable to do the Paragon choice, so it might just be a bug. I haven't done it yet, but luckily i'm not a wimp like pinata's Shepard.

that just sounds like they didn't have enough Paragon. It was like that in the first game.

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
All I know is I got the achievement. Being that he's not included on the disc, I wonder if his loyalty is essential for end-game perfection?

Well...I'll find out won't I. :(

Yeah, I'm not sure if the game scales with you, but try that mission at about the 15 hour mark while missing some major upgrades.

Supermallet 02-02-10 02:46 PM

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
I had no trouble with the forced mission, except when their big flying dude showed up and I ran out of heavy weapon ammo.

I also got a complete dropout of sound during the climax of the Samara mission.

fumanstan 02-02-10 03:00 PM

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
I think I did that mission around 15 hours, but I had spent some time buying upgrades whenever they became available so it didn't end up being too difficult for me.

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
I do have to say that the mid-mission check-points are far more generous here than they were in ME1.

Just finished Tali's loyalty mission. A touching moment, even if you had to wade through a ship full of Geth to get to it.

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
What are everyone's favorite weapons not including heavy ones? As an infiltrator in my first playthrough, the sniper rifle is by far my favorite, especially after you get the anti-material one. The heavy pistol wasn't bad and I thought the SMG was pretty useless.

I just started my 2nd game with a vanguard and the shotgun's not doing much for me so far. I loved it in the first ME so hopefully it'll get better after some upgrades. Haven't used the assault rifle yet.

May be a spoiler if you don't have all the available characters.

Spoiler:
Next time through when I'm playing Deuce Shepard the asshole, I'm totally recruiting Legion before I do her mission so I can take him along. That should help in her trial. :lol:

Where do you go to recruit Legion? I'm not seeing his name pop up on the star charts under available missions.

Deftones 02-02-10 04:23 PM

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
yeah, I'd like to know where to recruit Legion, too.

I happens through normal story progression. (I believe.)

Well that's obvious lol The part that I don't know what to respond to is whether I should get my hopes up or if it's a hoax.

I also did the same thing and got him to be loyal.
