So these videos, do they refresh when you go back again? For al-Jilani I only got the Krogan punch one. Are they random? For the size of the dlc and the shortness of the missions, I'm hoping half that space is constantly refreshing videos :D

The game sometimes locks out Paragon or Renegade options if your morality choices haven't been consistent enough. It also happens with Samara and Morinth, I think.

As well as get new videos in the archive.

The "investments" terminal refreshes so that when you visit again it shows the results of the investments you funded and offers you new options. My first visit I chose all options, with mixed results. The second batch had 2 options that I chose not to fund, as I didn't want to get involved with a couple of things that were either distasteful or likely to end REALLY badly.

I'm hoping that the unused options scroll off so you're not forced to fund things to get new choices.


Actually, those "investments" are based off of your console's clock....Meaning it's based off of "real life time" and not a "visit by visit" basis.  Go into your console, set the clock ahead a day, and then come back and youll have your results quicker Posted Image


Thank you for this information! I was afraid that my Shepard was completely screwed since she's already finished every single quest in the game.

All I know is that I visited again and got a second set of videos.

They do refresh. But you have to wait until it's the next day (literally, next day in real life, calendar day that is) OR do a mission of some sort, then return to the ship and you'll see everything updated.

I've been fairly critical of the ME2 DLC up until now but this really was first rate.

Ooh forgot to add - it was pretty obvious the Asari behind the bar was Liara's "father"/"Mother".



Since Liara's now the SB - surely she knows?

I did and am hoping the exact same thing right now, man. LOL


Also (to everyone) don't forget to check the recieved stuff every time. I got an SMG upgrade the second time and more free minerals I checked. This seems like an interesting extension to the Cerberus network news feed thing. Might get me to logging in every day again... seems like I forgot to buy an upgrade and it's expensive. :-P And gotta fund my mission to completely bleed the Galaxy dry of resources.


The quality of this DLC was out of this world. That spare, pre-recorded dialogue was just the tip of the iceburg of some very nice voice over work, the mission was very long (reminded me of the last mission in ME1), the mission was varied, the regular enemies were fun to fight, the two bosses were even more fun, PHENOMINAL art design and hard work, and many worthwhile rewards at the end of the mission... Worth it in every way, even for the $10. I didn't think I'd be saying that before I played it.

I think the car segment had potential, but the controls were somewhat limited. I understand why, though. If you allow the player to go up and down on command, you have to throw in more cars, which some computers and consoles might start choking on. Still, woulda been awesome for true control over the car. Regardless, the car segment WAS still fun to me.

Anyone else read all the dossier stuff at the end? Man that burned through a lot of time for me. :-P

Very well said, totally agree. Was really disappointed to see that SB is just another alien.


You were expecting maybe Santa Claus?

Is there actually a Paragon interrupt at the very end? I played twice and never noticed...

To be honest, the only thing that annoyed me was that Feron was literally a Thane recolor. I don't mind drell looking like drell, but his clothes are Thane's clothes with a new coat of paint.



To their credit, it took me a bit to actually notice that.

No, not santa claus but it is likely one of the people that is secretly bitter that the SB wasnt Liara's father lol....

Maybe I missed him but....... where was Tazzik?


Tazzik might have been the Salarian on the datapad you give Liara at the start of the DLC--that particular Salarian looked weirdly badass by Salarian standards--but he never appeared otherwise.

They could have taken the easy way out and made Tazzik the assassin, but personally I think the Asari Spectre was just a more interesting character.

On the plus side, imagine Tazzik's face when he finds out he's now taking orders from Liara T'Soni...

Not true, for the videos, I left the SB ship, flew to another part of the galaxy, went back, & got a new set of them.

I think Taz might have been killed by the SB for his failure.

I dont know about others, but i loved the introduction of this, de facto super species.

The Yahg seem incredibly formidable. A krogan, salarian, and batarian all together, and better than them all. A possible post-reaper threat? Or perhaps theyll be more involved in ME3?

Regardless, slaying my first one ever was a blast, with how the fight was set up.

A Very surprising, and welcomed twist, as far as my opinion goes.


Until they get angry, then they seem to revert to a more primitive rage. The fact that they're a horrific pre space flight society of inteligent apex predators does make them potentially very significant in the long run however. Neutered Krogan got competition... i mean it took a cybernetically enhanced badass like Shepard and more than one Cain to the face to bring just one down (albeit one with some of the absolute best tech money can buy)..

Doubtful. Tazzik was apparently quite the hitman, but that's just it--his job is to be out there, all over the place, actively doing stuff for the Shadow Broker. He's not the kind of guy you'd find wasting his days as a bodyguard for a guy who never gets attacked.

Tazzik is probably as blissfully unaware that he's answering to a new boss as he was blissfully unaware that his first boss wasn't even the original Shadow Broker.

Although I suppose he may have also died of old age, you know, those short-lived Salarians with their supersonic metabolisms. Posted Image
