Mass Effect (PC) Hardcore: P85 Eden Prime P1

Start of my second playthrough of Mass Effect, PC version, Hardcore difficulty. The Eden Prime mission begins. Warning: Contains spoilers. Captured with FRAPS. Class: Soldier. Gameplay info: I'm deliberately playing ME as a shooter with fast, interruption free combat.

NOTE: This playthrough I plan to record limited scenes, focusing mainly on the main mission / combat. Some side quests I missed the first time around may also be recorded.

The Solider class can take a shitload of damage with the Shocktrooper specialization and it's a cool class. Even though I maxed out all the kills on all the weapons.

I started a Sentinel a few weeks back with Assault Rifle bonus talent, and it's a badass class with a mixture of Biotic and Tech. I got all the top upgrades for her too. With the Armor glitch I have the Colossus X Heavy with Combat and Medical upgrades. Although I do hate the power wheel glitch on the Xbox version tho.

Heh, yeah the Soldier class is virtually invincible with Shocktrooper spec. I've never tried a Sentinel myself. Sounds cool though.

In order to get the achievement for beating the game on hardcore, it says, "You can't change the setting." in parenthesis. So I'm trying to beat the game on harcore with a guy I've already played with, but the game doesn't let you change the difficulty before you start the game because it's not a new player. So as soon as you take control of your guy on the Normandy I changed it to Hardcore. Will that effect the achievement in any way, because it says not to change the setting in game?

Don't feel dumb.. He is playing it a second time through. If you finish the game, you can choose your old character to play it again.

Lvl 50 is the limit you can get the first run through the game. Lvl 60 is the maximum and can be achieved by a second run

I feel dumb for asking but I have the xbox360 version but when I start I dont have all those upgrades...Am i missing something here?

[icniuq]

you have to max it out

[Jedibron]

Actually sorry its a 150 kills. Its been a few month since i played the game. But still before even playing the game I knew about the bonus skills.

[Jedibron]

Actually "IDIOT" it is any guide one anysite. Plus the achievement for it clearly states kill 100 enemies with said weapon. I am sorry that you are too stupid nearly two years after the game came out to use your brain and figure it out "IDIOT".

[Jedibron]

Bye killing 100 enemies. duh.

[blahblah055]

how do you unlock shotgun as bonus skill? :)

[iniudan]

it 150 kill =) (same for all other weapon except pistol (which extend duration of markman, since everyone got pistol skill (except sentinel which get them through their sentinel skill))

[iniudan]

Would say shock trooper here but that because I am very agressive with soldier, thus need all the def bonus from it since often closing in in live fire (when not suicidal) if you make optimum use of cover has soldier I would say commando
