Mass Effect 1/2 - Kaden - 02-02-2010
I kept mining to depletion, too.
Then I realized that I had more resources than all the upgrades in the game could possibly require, so I stopped mining altogether. I would scan for anomalies, but that's it.

Depletion is just a state the game throws at you because it has pity on you, the planet still has plenty of spots to mine from even high ones, depending on planet. It's a really strange system.

I got the customary "it'd be sweet to roleplay this character" urge, too. If something does open up, you guyz should let me know.

I try to ignore those urges. Had that about Star Wars a week ago. Now I want to be a Turian.

I'm pretty sure it's based on a percentage of how much the planet could possibly hold and how much is actually in it.
You're correct, though. "Depleted" does not mean there are no resources left.

I mine planets like that, too.
I wanted to jet off to get Liara right away and the fucking game won't let me so I'm all plague doctoring it up.

Yeah...when you do that lemme know. I have questions for you.

When I finish plague doctoring or mining planets to eternal poverty?
Mass Effect 1/2 - Orion - 02-03-2010
I get bored of mining really fast. If the planet doesn't say "Rich" when I start scanning, I leave orbit and try for another. It's too repetitive scanning up and down on a moderate or lower planet for resources for too little payoff.

I turn on a movie in the background.

When you go see Liara.

True, but I gave up grinding when I stopped playing WoW.

What I don't quite understand is why there are so many resources in the game to begin with. If you depleted all the planets (yeah, plenty to say about that itself, but let's move past it, k?) the upgrades wouldn't even scratch the surface of your ridiculous stockpile of resources.
Shepard could just sell them all and hire entire armies to go fight instead of having to do it himself. Or just, like, purchase the council and then order everyone to do it. Either way works.
Mass Effect 1/2 - Rem-13 - 02-03-2010
So I'm 3/4ths through my second playthrough with my old Shepard (I know I did that backwards) and I found out it apparently thinks I killed the council. I most certainly DID FUCKING NOT
THIS IS MY PARAGON PLAYTHROUGH
MOTHERFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

I love a lot of the little things in this,and after getting over the ammo annoyance this is way better than the first. Mordin's version of the Modern Major General=fucking epically awesome.
Mass Effect 1/2 - Kaden - 02-05-2010
He's studied species Turian, Asari and Batarian.
What a badass.

Cerberus Assault Armor. Thoughts?
Mass Effect 1/2 - Sage - 02-11-2010
Gahbidge.
But I don't use the Blood Dragon Armor, either, so what do I know?
I still have codes to redeem the Singularity Cannon and the Collector Armor but I really... don't care enough to do it.
