I agree. It wasn't perfect...

In Response To: Re: As long as it's nothing like this.... (Phoenix_9286) : This. Probing planets put me to sleep on multiple occasions. I wish I was : lying. : Before ME2, I was praising the new system. No more driving the same path in : the shit Mako that can climb 85 degree slopes, but not 86 degree slopes! : No more endlessly driving around fighting through the same 3 bases over : and over again for a handful of minerals! : And then I played ME2. And I wept openly over the lack of a Mako. N7 missions : were an improvment over the same 3 bases over and over. However the : delivery, was not. The transitions, were not. I'd much rather have landed : on these N7 planets in my Mako, driven around, found my mineral deposits : THAT way, and then driven to the mission sites, jumped out, and gone to : town before returning to the Mako and driving to an LZ for dust off. : It did not help matters that the first time I played, I wasn't fully aware : until near the end of the game (my own fault for not paying attention) : that I didn't HAVE to scan and probe EVERY. LAST. SINGLE. PLANET. For the : minerals? No. I was fairly aware I had a pretty massive supply, and I even : worked out a system that would let me probe a planet and move on in under : five minutes. What I wasn't aware of, was that you didn't have to probe : every single planet to depletion for it to count towards the system : completion percentage. All you had to do was stop at the planet, and then : you could move on. : Mako > Probing ...but the idea of launching a Warthog from a spaceship drive-by to go explore an unknown planet in any direction you wanted... That has helluva lot more promise than a mini-game of random ass clicking in pure trial and error strategy, hah.
