I like ME2's combat system more, but I want the combat areas to be larger and more varied.  I don't want to walk in to an area filled with crates stacked waist-high and know immediately to take cover.  That's poor design. 

I hear it is the GOW cover system.

In addition, I'd like for areas to be large enough so that I can attack from multiple positions. Mordin's recruitment mission is a good example of this.  When you're heading to Mordin's clinic, and you're fighting your way through the Blue Suns, there are places where you can attack the enemy around the side, or sneak up to fire down on the enemy from a balcony, rendering their cover completely useless.  That's great.  Then, there are other missions, where the whole thing is just one long hallway, and manuevering and tactics amount to walking around a support beam or wall.

My favorite mission as far as combat and fighting area is Korlus.  I love that mission.  Secondly for me would probably be Thane's recruitment mission off of the top of my head.

Lastly, I hate the curent heat-sink system.  The way it was originally designed for ME2, weapons still had unlimited ammo.  You could fire full-auto and eject the heat-sink clip to instantly cool down your weapon, or you could wait for the weapon to cool down for strategic firing.  Firing in controlled, aimed bursts wouldn't cause the weapon to heat up so fast that you would have to use either method to keep it cool.

I remember when an Asari merc used Reave on me during Kasumi's mission when her shields were down to keep herself alive.  She used it to regain some health.  That surprised me.  That's actual AI.  Why aren't changes like this being made retroactively, instead of being implemented incrementally from DLC to DLC?

I wish they would patch the rest of the game to include flashbangs from the enemy.  I didn't notice Reave being used.  That is interesting.

I like both combat systems almost equally, ME1 is more Tactical but ME2 is more fluid and focused on intense action.

If i had my way ME2's combat system would stay for ME3 but incoporate more RPG elements into it.

Yeah ME3 should be a little larger IMO.  Keep the amount of combat we have, but add more RPG with more extensive dialog IMO.

Yes definintly more dialogue, that is the most important aspect for me.


Definitely.  Despite everything that I typed earlier, I would take more dialogue and involved character interaction, even if it meant a copied-and-pasted version of the combat system from ME2 in ME3.

Blasphemy!  Let's not even talk about the copy pasting that was done in ME1.  More dialog yes, copy and paste?  *shudders*

It doesn't work :(  I imported him from ME1, and the ID Code ME2 assigns to him produces a completely different (uglier) face.

EDIT:  I imported him from ME1, not ME2.  Woops.

I always use Sheploo for male Shepard... he looks much better than any of the other character models.

For female I usualy go with a variation of the first character model (not the default).

I have the default for all of my males but one.  The default female does not look good at all to me.  I have to customize my FemShep.

I have never done a female shepard, 4 males in ME1 and 6 in ME2.

I didn't start doing it myself until ME2.  I could not stand looking at FemShep from behind while she ran in ME1.  Fortunately Bioware improved that aspect and made it more attractive to me anyway.

Yeah... I really hope they pay a model to use her likeness for ME3.  Incidentaly... the dress you get from Kasumi's loyalty mission shows Femshep to be like a fitness model.  Strong shoulders and arms.

I saw that.  I find that it makes FemShep look attractive, and sets her apart from the other female models, none of which have muscles.   Strong women.  Do want.  Probably one reason I like Samara, too :whistle:

All the time (I have squad power usage turned off for that reason).  A Vanguard with lift field and area reave can be devistating when you have Miranda and Garrus(shielded opponents) or Samara and Thane (armor/barrier opponents) with you on Insanity.

Do you have the squadpowers quick slotted, or do you bring up the hud?

Ummm, I like mine to be more petite and feminine myself.  I noticed that also with the Kasumi mission, and wasn't too crazy about her exaggerated contours.

I downloaded a save file from ME saves dot com.  I playthroughed once with her, then I modified all of the flaggs with the save editor and used that as my preferred ME FemShep in the following playthrough.

Out of curiosity, has anyone modified their Femshep to where she has Samara's head?

MS should make the 360 modular and upgradable if the same model is going to be around for very long.  I am not too familiar with it, so if I am off base here, then let me know.
And it stands now with ME anyways, the PC has a big advantage over the 360.

Yes, the process (body + head) is easier for strictly off-ship stuff, though.

Onboard, it's simple to get the body of NPCs, but using the heads requires a bit more work (that's frankly beyond my understanding/inclination to learn).

I thought it was funny and awesome.  Seeing her in a dress felt so strange, but seeing her muscular arms felt so right. She's a soldier, even in a dress she's supposed to look like she can kick your ass. Posted Image

I was just curious if someone had uploaded a pic or vid.  I have not done any searching for it on the web.  I not too inclined myself to learn either.^_^

Edit:  I have thought about modifiying a few of the characters though just for the heck of it.
