(ill be back on this later). Insanity playthrough, import from ME2, I buff finess, nova and biotic charge first.Remember when you play soldier (or pretty much any other class), you have to cower behind cover, haul ass when a grenade flies in, only to be shot and swear excessively and wanting to throw something at the screen? Vanguard is designed so that you could vent that frustration.
The charge-nova combo (combine with stasis from liara) is utterly unstoppable at any and pretty much every situation. I can take on 4 Brutes at the time headon (genophage mission). Throw him into the middle of Grissom academy and he just clean houses!
Turrets, atlases, banshees...nothing can stop him, he doesn't even need to take cover OR shoot back. Beating up bosses with his bare hand, Literally!. The guy just oozes vengeance and justice.
Back to the glitchy part... IMO, I think game is (I think they designed it) like that benevolent presence that screw around with you whenever you gain an advantage, straight up put you down when you're at the worst, sometimes screw around with you anyway and laugh in your face with that failure screen.
But my Vanguard, I actually think he pissed off the game, and that makes me very VERY happy (considering the amount of anger medication I went through in my first soldier playthrough)
I was playing that mission on Tuchanka where you cure the genopage. Around the middle or so, when I was just mowing through hordes of brutes and ravagers like they were nothing, the game start to put invisible charge wall on me so that I could not charge the enemy without going back exactly to where I was:blink:.
Then after a couple charge-nova, things start to explode so gloriously, the game's audio get stuck in slow motion (when you come out of biotic charge) for good (until I finally eject the disc 2 hours later). When I completed that mission, It treated me with bug out cutscenes featuring lag, a green Reaper and skipping scenes (complete with ****ed up audio). It was kinda epic though, seeing Wrex looking at the shroud in lag motion.
And finally, the game freezes at the final loading screen. And afterward whenever I level up, there is this "undefined" character tab, that when I choose a power, it just say undefined for everything, then it freezes the game
This game despises me now, and I completely love thatB). Because screw you, Insanity difficulty!
Retour en haut
) I'm 70% through my second playthrough with this class and it's just total carnage! When I played as a soldier it was a much slower pace and I often felt like I was in for a battle of attrition. With the vanguard though, I very rarely need cover and on some missions I've hardly used weapons at all. Pull, charge, nova and reave (or energy drain if fighting against Geth) and I can clear each mission pretty much on my own. I think the vanguard is the most spectacular class in the game and a huge amount of fun
