[up][up][up]I'm playing some pretty old school D&D right now, so I have no idea how late I will get back home.

But as soon as I get, sure.

I'm at uni/work for the next 6 hours so no for me...

I was excited when I unlocked a scope for my assault rifle.

Less so when I realized using it takes the "third person" out of of third person shooter. I was just expecting it to increase accuracy, not that it would actually put me behind the scope.

And I've realized that my Katana, at least at the low level it is, is fairly useless! So I've started using SM Gs alongside my assault rifle. Very, very fun.

Yeah I find the scope annoying. When I have one on, I'll even instinctively scope and short range and shaft myself. Leaving it out now on my gun, stick to stability, ammo or barrels.

It does help to put it on a Carnifex. Mostly because I pretty much only use the Carnifex for sniping anyway. For everything else, it's just annoying.

The Tempest with a scope is also unexpectedly good. It's the primary weapon of my quarian Engineer, and it kicks some serious ass, especially when you get the ammo upgrade, which ups the ammo count to eighty rounds.

In ME2, I just killed a Geth Prime by using nothing more than Heavy Charge and an Inferno Ammo'd Scimitar shotgun. Geth are surprisingly weak at point blank, although I still nearly died between Charges. Can't wait to see the kind of crazy shit I'll get to pull of as a Vanguard in ME3.

Well, the geth are confirmed as enemies, and there is an enemy faction selection option in multiplayer...

Also: you only charged a Prime? Please.

Speaking of ME2, I know that if you do it right, you can end up with only one squadmate after the Suicide Mission. What happens when you go on missions and stuff?

If you end with only one squadmate, Shepard dies and you get a Non-Standard Game Over / Bad Ending.

You need at least two surviving squadmates to survive the Suicide Mission, most likely to prevent that issue.

so, I finally did it. I solo'd down an Atlas in melee with my Krogan Soldier. I can now say I have personally punched every single enemy type in the face.

What if the final game has gunships as enemies? And Harvester husks? Then you won't be able to make that claim.

It'd be great if you COULD charge them... but would die when you hit the ground.

I wouldn't be shocked if firing krogan out of a canon was an actual strategy during the period where they were trying to conquer everyone.

I read about one person melee-ing a Geth prime to death. There's also a video of someone beating a YMIR Mech using only Charge.

I think my krogan may be ready to punch silver in the face...
