You know, they just released an update for ME2 that totally does away with that slow a** scanning... sure, you still have to scan and send probes... but its MUCH faster and cover a wider radius now...

Ah it's not so bad...now mining sure isn't the most exciting part of the game but whatever I find it kind of makes sense to keep it. It was a logical way to receive the materials.

I'm sure they'll improve it so it won't be so tedious. They can make it faster and more effective. 3nodding

They did? Hmn, should update ME2 then.

That might be a while though. Just re-bought both DLC packs for Fable 2 and I'm going through it again. (the game is oddly addicting)

Mining update? I gotta check that! I was chill with the mining at first, but really the more times I replay through the game the more I loathe the mining. Takes a good portion of butt-kicking time to pause to gather more resources.

**finsh skinning my cougar**
Huh?
Ah crap, 2 of hem coming...
nyway, yeah, mining = not really fun on replays...you should be able to keep much more on replays

But he simply says it will be back, not how...
So, no biggies there...
DAMNIt, how come 2 cougars are more dangerous than a full hideout of gunslingers?

But hey, could be worse, they could bring back the...mako...

The Mass Effect 2 DLC will apparently bridge ME2 to ME3:

I've been playing Red Dead Redemption as well razz

Ayep cougars can be quite a pain from personal experience. xd


Yeh I enjoyed the new mining system better than the Mako at least, I went everywhere on the Mako my first playthrough of Mass Effect and then didn't bother any other playthrough.

Well, rumors of the use of project natal for the third chapter...
Maybe it could be used for mining?


And yeah...how the ******** can 2 cougars be more dangerous than 12 f'ing guys with guns? lol

Oh, I hope those Natal rumors are false!

Why?
Natal might be nice for mining
It's already implanted in fable 3, but you don't need it to do all...it would just add the option to use it...
PostPosted: Sun May 30, 2010 7:45 pm




As long as they make mining more fun, and less of a "game breaker" as in slows the game's action time. Mass Effect in not a Real Time Strategy so why mining was added sometimes eludes me.

I did not mind the Mako, ya the controls where crazy, but you got the hang of them eventually. I miss being able to explore the same cookie cutter planets, driving on the surface of Luna and looking up at the Earth in its mirror image was awesome.

What I would really like to do is explore more of the Citadel, I hate see all those locked doors and walkways. Also I would like to visit the Arcturus System and see the Arcturus Space Station.

I'm still on the fence with my feeling of Natal, Motion Controls remind me to much of 3D movies, it's just a gimmick.

Possible Natal capabilities, more mining and now multiplayer?
