Well it would help it for me if there was at least an illusion of a bigger world. Buildings as far as the eye can see, flying cars, some action going on etc. You might not be able to go there, but at least it feels like there is more.
Sidequests always woke the OCD guy in me. No matter how small or boring the assignment is, I HAVE to do it, it has to 100% or I won't feel satisfied when the game is done. And after a while you forget what it was you were supposed to do.
I guess that's why they made some unskippable missions in ME2. It was getting ridiculous with all the " The collectors/reapers are coming, there is no time to waste, the colonies are under attack right this moment - hurry!" and you are "Yeah...just give me a couple of days to scan all this planets for crashed ships and whatnot".

I heard you don't get to drive around on planets anymore? I guess the finding survey spots etc. is gone too? Just playing ME1 and while it gets boring if you do a lot of planets in a row, scouting the new planets is fun in small doses, inbetween the campaign worlds.

There will be a DLC for driving around planets, it's called Hammerhead iirc.

Yes - though it seems like an odd DLC. A vehicle you can drive around with isn't much good without a lot of areas to drive around in.. and a lot of areas to drive around in aren't much good unless they're detailed, well-made and somewhat unique.. so it sounds like it will either be a fairly extensive DLC, or a bit of a pointless one.

The character selection screen was the best in Dragon Age: Origins. ME2 had a better one than ME1 but it wasn't as great as DA:O's CSS.
1 and 2 are still amazing.

Ok guys, quick question, I would like to add some paragon to have max of it. I have currently 2 missions : IFF and Jack's loyalty mission. And I know that Jack will argue with Miranda and I need to have 100% P. or R. to have "left" talk options availble. But it seems that I shall edit: BIOInput.ini and here is the problem...can't find it anywhere.

yeah i been meaning to bring that up re: character creation
is it me, or is character creation systems becoming less full on and more simplistic? for a start, you cant create your body, and in me2 the facial design section felt a little light... like presets of 4 or 5 options for each thing... is this to accommodate consoles or something? its just ive been noticing it a lot. DAO was better, but it still felt a bit restrictive too.
and yeah with planet scanning i eventually said fuck it about 2 or 3 systems left in the game. i just didnt need to get any more stuff, id upgraded everything... i did scan 100% of the planets though, just to look for anomalies.

Had that problem. Even though my Paragon bar was almost full (the last 'section' was 1/3 full) the last time I tried, I couldn't fix the situation neither during nor after the argument, therefore causing Miranda to permanently lose loyalty...
 Spoiler: | ...and invariably die during the final mission. |
Stupidly high alignment requirements there, possibly a bug, since the other arguments don't need ridiculous amounts of Paragon/Renegade points to be peacefully resolved.

About Miranda
| Spoiler: | If she is not loyal to you, will she turn on you if you refuse to keep Collector ship? |

hmmm i was playing renegade and had no problem keeping both loyal... my renegade bar was no where near full. is paragon much more difficult to play in regards to requirements for those options?

It must be a bug if Renegade was so much easier.
Some coder must've typoed when entering the Paragon requirement, I bet.

With about half the paragon bar, I think you can have all the paragon actions.

Could you optimally resolve the Miranda-Jack argument, or fix things afterwards? This sounds more and more like a bug.

Every class skill increases the paragon/renegade points, with one of the options for the level 4 (it gives you two to choose from) is 100% paragon/renegade increase.

You can always retrain your abilities just before you need a special pick and then retrain again.

Oh, I had had that skill at level 4 for a long time, perhaps the glitch is there, and didn't add enough Charm points.
Another bug I noticed is related to the ammo-increasing arms, which sometimes grant the 10% bonus, but sometimes they don't.
Then I had about four or five random CTDs throughout the game, but they weren't too demotivating, as I quicksaved all the time.

I left Miranda's office, upgraded my skill that gives you more paragon/renegade points and tried again to explain myself. Worked the second time. You don't need 100% but quite a lot - very close to full bar. Actually I think I read somewhere that it's not just your renegade/paragon points, but that particular skill that matters, might not be true, but when I made this work it was at level 3. |
That's good to know, so it increases your total score by a certain percentage. I thought it just gave you extra on every gain, with the bar still representing your total.. no need to fill a bar to more than about 60% then.

I just can't get into the codex.
In DA:O it was fine, big pages, nice nice.
Here's it's all small snippets, they're not using the whole screen estate, just a very small part which pisses me off to no end.
Also, when selecting gear or emails or whatever, you can't even seem to double click to select an item. You have to highlight the "bar" and then click select. Which is balls.
