No there is only one Prothean side mission

Kinda sucks really.

Yeah, and the mission wasn't even that great, it was a base, with a pyramid inside, and it gave you one of those visions like the prothean beacon on Eden Prime.

All you did was take cover, shoot up the place without exploring any side story, and leave the place in 5 minutes, pretty much the same as any other side mission.

lol. I hardly even bother with side missions in ME 2.

Yeah, there's literally NO reward whatsoever, except, time being not used on something else?

Vigil · by Vigil on Wed Mar 10, 2010 11:10 pm

You get several things

Money (Which is pretty redundant)

Resourses (Not as much as launching probes)

Experience (But on most difficulties it isn't a problem.)

Yeah, I heard about her. A leaked picture showed her looking like A quarian with no face shield, and with queen Amidala's face paint.

I just hope she has a good side mission.

She's a human thief from what I've heard, some of her dialogue got hacked out of the PC disc and she sounds pretty good. Should be a fun addition after I'm finished with the Hammerhead.

Yeah! It's like the same thing, but it showed collectors being identical to Protheans? which made little sense, considering we know both look nothing alike.

See how they reused the same Pyramid model, terminal model, and...well a lot of stuff from the previous game? Too much gosh darn corner cutting.

Vigil · by Vigil on Sun Mar 14, 2010 5:35 pm

Well they are the same species.

The pyramid is a resized version of the ones from the original, terminal is exactly the same.

I counter that claim Ring, if you look up on youtube there is a lot of dialogue for team options not possible in the final game.

The stuff there is astronomical, as the game can pick up virtually every single choice you made in ME1.

For example this

Yeah, but more then dialog options constitute good gameplay.

Vigil · by Vigil on Sun Mar 14, 2010 6:03 pm

They need some work on other areas, but they do put of a lot of effort in their games.

Ringleader · by Ringleader on Sun Mar 21, 2010 11:12 pm

Sooo, anyone hear any news in regards to the Hammerhead?
