Separate cooldown periods for powers.

*High Five*

Back at yo- shit, I can't, I just high fived my brother and have to wait 12 seconds for it to cooldown...

...there we go. High Five!

As said on the BioWare forums;

I'd like to be able to tell the council the following when they're attacked by the Reapers and ask for help.
"Ah yes, "Reapers", the immortal race of sentient starships allegedly waiting in dark space. We have dismissed that claim."

That is the only thing I want to do in ME3.

That would be great.

I thoroughly enjoyed my renegade playthrough when Shepard told them to shove thier Spectre offer up thier asses.

So do you not become a Spectre again as a renegade?

You can if you like, but it's way more fun to tell them to shove it up thier asses.

I know what you mean. I was tempted to say it as a Paragon.

Yeah, the council are dicks. Especially that Turian. I saved your asses and now you're giving out to me for being ressurected?

Fuck you and your spectre status! I don't need y'all! [wags finger]

 

[mb16]

a huge space battle or reapers vs all the other races fleets + ones that you have made allies such as the:
Krogen (if you have rex/helped them)
quarians (if you helped the fleet)
Geth (if you help legion, more if you converted rather than destroyed)
rachni [the bug things from me1](if you saved the queen)
allied reaper (if you kept the base, or the Normandy with reaper upgrades)

also larger/more hubs
more guns. i liked starting with a scimitar.2 and ending up with a HMMX.10
more in depth side quest rather than just go here and kill for 5mins

If I ever get the gumption to run through on Insanity, I'm going to have to switch classes I think.

Go as a sentinel if you do insanity. They have Warp and Overload which can deal with all the extra barriers and armour the enemies get, and the tech armour will save your life many times.

Take Miranda and Grunt, her for buffs and him for squad incendiary ammo, plus he's the only really effective tank.

Also, I did it with a new game plus which some people say is madness as the enemies scale, but I found having my skills maxed was very helpful.

EDIT:

And buy some new controllers, because you'll be smashing a few.

I have six controllers in varying states of destruction. I come prepared. I think what I'll need more of is some fresh constructive profanity to scream at the game. What I'm currently using just isn't cutting it anymore.

That's definately a sound strategy.

I found by the time I got to Horizon I needed an entirely new lexicon of vulgarity and rage.

I recommend a trip to urbandictionary.com beforehand to brush up on your trash-talking.

A hanar? Aren't they those squid things? Don't see how'd they'd be much help in a gun fight.

Enkindle THIS!

 

[Shaegor]

I want them to do a prologue for ME3 in ME2 DLC or something...
And oh god please keep the ME2 crew, they're awesome.

 

[SkylerRock]

All I want, all I really really want is the galaxy map of ME1 back. I hate the system in ME2, flying the wee ship around makes it look more like a Final Fantasy world map than a starship navigation system.

Getting some of the weapon/armor customization back would be nice, but I'd settle for the galaxy map request.

So far as driving around in the Mako goes (which I hated with a passion), if they had got it right it could have been so much fun. I'm not a Halo fanboy but all they had to do was make the Mako handle like a Halo 1 Warthog, pissing around in a vehicle that only had a rough idea on the concept of physics would have been awesome.

 

[DustyDrB]

I just talked to EDI and found out that

Spoiler

she is made from technology taken from Sovereign. So lets have a Normandy-Reaper. But instead of indoctrination, it compels people to throw shoes at Admiral Udina.

I have a feeling that we're going to have some huge DLC for Mass Effect 2, though. Hearing how huge Dragon Age Awakening is going to be makes me think we might meet some new characters in Citadel space before Harbinger joins the party in the flesh. We're going to be getting a new character and a new means of planetary exploration (the Hammerhead) soon, so you know we're getting at least two more missions (recruitment and loyalty). I expect much more to come, though.

 

[SpireOfFire]

get rid of the goddamn planet combing.

 

[Fruuba]

Thane, Mordin, and Garrus stay in the group plus a more efficient way of getting minerals. That was so unnecessarily tedious.

 

[Vuljatar]

Two words: Tali's face.

 

[ThaBenMan]

Here's my list of "Wants" for ME3 -

- Shepherd discovers a primitive alien race and makes first contact. You'll have all sorts of ways to interact with them. Paragons can try to learn to communicate and welcome them into the greater galactic community. Renegades can kill them all or sell them to slavers.

- A mission that takes place in an ancient Prothean ruin that still has a functioning security system - a field that disables the computers in your guns, forcing you and your enemies to resort to melee. Maybe you find a bow or something like that partway through. It might be fun or a pain in the ass, I'm not sure. Oh, and near the end of the mission you get to disable the security field - your foes don't realize they can use their guns again, and you can massacre them! Muahahaha...

- A mission where you're stuck in some place and something is causing everyone's auto-translators to malfunction (I assume that's how all these people of various species can understand each other? I can't find anything in the codex about it). It'd be a dialogue-heavy mission - you have to talk to different people and try to figure out what they're saying to find a way to get out. And it'd be really cool to hear the different aliens talking in their own languages.

New ideas for Mass Effect 3

Melee weapons could work well like an attachment for the omni-tool/biotic amp. More Platinum on planets... Or have things cost less Platinum... Better yet include a market system on Omega and the Citadel where you can trade/excahnge/buy resources for others. Tell me what gives me renegade and paragon... I swear to God somethings are like neutral and they get me paragon... Also make the speech options more relevant to what Shepard says. Be able to customise more with more options in them... Couldn't find any good looking colour schemes for armour besides black with red pattern tint.

stuff from Mass Effect 1

Bring back the Mako driving but not space exploration, like on Noveria, Feros, Virmire and Therum, Doesn't have to be so linear but just no mineral searching bollocks. Bring back the leveling up system... Bring back the grenades... Scrap the ammo/heat clip idea. Give infinite respawning enemies the kick... give XP for each kill. Miss being able to assign stat points individually. Screw Cerberus and the whole save humanity bollocks, thats not why I play Mass Effect.

On the whole I bsically want Mass Effect 3 to be back to more RPG then FPS.

 

[TheFacelessOne]

Moar.
WEAPONS.
AND
ARMOR!

MOAR. MOAR. WEAPONS. AND. ARMOR!!!! GRAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I swear, I was pissed at how little room for variety there actually was!

 

[Hyperactiveman]

Just realised something else they can do for Mass Effect 3. If selecting another playthrough on a different difficuty the game gives the option to skip the dialog as it's only the combat that changes.

Also I agree with making the classes more different from eachother... I only played ME1 on Soldier then on Adept and same with ME2... they're the most different.

Generic shooter class... then wizard with pistol... different.

Six controllers, props to you, we have 6 controllers in our house, but that is because everyone but the baby has a 360 (and my son and I have two controllers each)
Hey, anyone think we should mail BioWare the link for this thread with all of it's constructive criticism? ;-)
Also I noticed a couple of lovely glitches last night my Shep TWICE got stuck strafing and wouldn't face forward (one time was in the heat of battle she wouldn't turn round and face the fight, she had her back turned, good job Zaeed was there, is all I'll say) *shakes fist in the very general direction of Canada* ;-)

 

[HK_01]

1. Tali must remain a squad member and LI
2. Rachni Brood Warrior on team(only if you saved the queen, of course)
3. Explanation of why the Human Reaper looked so damn retarded


And, something they're probably not gonna include, I want to only be able to win the battle if you did everything right in the previous games, meaning that if you pissed off all your allies but also destroyed the Reaper technology, you won't stand a chance.

2: Make engineers less gimped, the infiltrator could do everything they could better and had sniper rifles

On my first playthrough of Mass Effect 2, having never played any Mass Effect before, I chose the Engineer. -_-

Yes, six. And boy did I get some guff from the clerk who sold some of them to me.
Himon't you have anything better to spend your money on?
Me:No.
I am not ashamed to say just about every free dime I have is spent on something video game related. Okay, I lie, I have a ridiculous number of books and cds as well, but these things I buy on sale... so that I can spend more on the gaming.

I managed to avoid the really bad glitches in ME2 somehow... I think I only had to load once. I suspect it will happen more this playthrough, since my good judgment has left me. I have been goaded into trying Insanity.

 

[teutonicman]

1)Keep the side quests of ME 2 but add some of the generic side quests from ME 1
2)If there going to do something with resource management make the upgrades cost much less, this type of grinding sucks. Or let your upgrades carry over to subsequent games.
3)Bring back over heating, no one like ammo-management, especially in a rpg that has a thrid person shooter focus.
4) Threesome
5) Side quest option to find and possibly kill the illusive man.

OH AND OF COURSE KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC 3
