Weren't some 360 owners talking about getting that to work by advancing the system clock? Maybe its a time thing. I don't know.


Heyo. My original post probably got passed up early in the thread. When it was tomorrow, it literally means tomorrow. Just advance your system clock, load th egame up, etc.

They aren't anything spectacular, no real moral choices. Just an easy way to score some quick cash.

Really? all I did was a sidequest and they showed up.

Is it true that yoursquad talents reset?


Not only do can you reset their talents, but resetting them clears everything, including their loyalty talent which means you can avoid those awkward moments of being one point short on many characters. For example, I used it to max out all three of Kasumi's normal talents by giving up the free point given to Flashbang Grenade.

The wiki says: "The DLC can be played during the game or after the suicide mission, but

the dialogue is "weighted heavily toward the assumption that the player

had already completed it."



I'm curious. Does anyone know when the game saves the information needed to import it into ME3? Is that even known? I'm planning to use an already "finished" game to play this DLC. Will the choices made in LotSB transfer even though the suicide mission is done?

The game will import your most recent save to ME3, so even if you play LotSB post sm you should be fine.

Did you actually set your clock forward to see if that would work? You've done it yourself?(Just looking for confirmation seeing as I also have a completed game with no more sidequests).

So....can all ME DLC be like LotSB?



Quite possibly the best DLC I've played yet and far surpassed my skepticism.



- Boss battles with appropriate difficulty.

- Tons of enemies to fight

- Great atmosphere and environments

- Squad respec (though is rather useless if you've completed the game, for now anyways. Theres always more DLC in the future)



My only gripe was that I experienced a drop in FPS (on 360) when I was on Illium.



A++

I was somewhat disappointed with it, not necessarily the short length of it (honestly, I expected that, I automatically take Bioware time and divide it by 2 to keep my expectations in check) but the actual content. The DLC starting with today's and on are supposed to be bridges into 3, but it really didn't have a whole lot to do with the future other than the POSSIBILITY of Liara helping you in 3 by giving out information.

It was basically just fan service for Liara people and the wierdos who obsess over love interests. Very story-lite, like the rest of ME2. What was there outside of the story department was fun though, don't get me wrong. I enjoyed some of the dossiers, most specifically Legion's gamer stats :P

  


I totally agree its fan service and now maybe all the Liara fans can shut the hell up. they all whined like a bunch of cry babies about her role in ME 2 so instead of Bioware telling a story that connects ME 2 to ME 3 they decided to do stupid fan service the action was goo and Shepard beating the hell out of the Shadow Broker with his fist  was cool but other than that it does nothing for the ME 2 storyline or connect to ME 3

On the Shadow Broker's video terminal there's a clip of Matriach Aethyta on Illium staring at a photo of Liara. Confirmation?


I think it quite possibly could be! :0 Or at least, it points even more towards the possiblity of her being Liara's father.

Question for those of you who already played through:

Does the team have some dialogue lines this time?



Sorry if this was already mentioned, but I don't want to spoil myself too much, so I refrain from reading the entire thread.

No squadmate banter, save for a single line during an explosion. The Shadow Broker does acknowledge the third squadmate's (in addition to Liara) presence, though.

Tali says "Keelah" at one point, and I guess whoever you brought along instead if you don't bring Tali would say something to that effect as well, but aside from that, no, there's no team dialogue. The DLC more than makes up for it though, in my opinion, with what you get at the end.

I have played it twice and the whole stupid paragon interupt bull sh*t when Shepard was talking with Liara smells of pure fan service. this has so much fan service the other squad mates might as well be on mute since they have no voice at all in it but in the rest of the game they do. its ashame ME 2's dlc might become one big pile of steaming fan service garbage instead of giving us a post SM dlc that does have some real connection to ME 3. but hey at least i got some gamer score out of this and a new power which is decent.

I was blown away by this DLC. Not only is it sublime by DLC standards, it's also better than anything in the actual game itself. Overlord was awesome, but this is in a whole 'nother league.

One thing, though.

The cab. Why is it more durable than my combat-exploration vehicle?

Ahh, I disagree. We now have Liara in position as the Shadow Broker which will give Shepard a whole bunch of contacts and information available in Mass Effect 3. There was plenty of fan service, but it would have been a waste for a DLC to revolve around a specific fan favourite character and not pander to that audience

I loved the look of her armor.  Shep definitely would have looked great in it.


I absolutely loved this DLC.  The boss battle with Tela was great, as was the fight with the Shadow Broker.  The new race reveal for the Shadow Broker was cool; I really expected the Broker to be some sort of AI...I'm glad I was wrong.  I also thought the little perks after Liara becomes the Shadow Broker are great, especially the character respec.

I'm also glad I could reconcile with Liara.  She was quite mean to me at first, accusing me of trying to replace a dying man's wife, but she got over it and gave Shep some azure. :whistle:
