been playing alot more..

Game is alot more dumbed down in terms of skills/abilities. The skill tree is ALOT more focused.. For instance im playing soldier and there are only like 5 options. unlike the first one where you could do a bunch of stuff.

A few new aditions... Some cool "hacking tricks." One makes you connect circuits in a circuit board. this is really difficult to do.
the other one lets you "hack " the firewall. The firewall hack is really easy for me.. basically you match lines of code.

The exploration/scanniing is really cool. Basically you play a little miny game with the planets where u scan them down with you mouse and launch probes to collect ore for your upgrades.

as always alot of chat options.

new in this version is the ability to shoot people that are behind cover. So with some good mouse work, or joystick work on the 360, you can can snipe someones head that is behind cover. head shots add alot of damage. Pretty much 85% of my shots are head shots with the sniper rifle or the pistol, lol. means you down enemies pretty quickly.

Some improvements to moving around large maps.

EDIt this is a big one:

Guns need AMMO NOW!!

Well its not called ammo in game. Its called a heat catridge, or clip (w/e). Basically as it ejects casings your gun doesn't over heat. So your gun no longer over heats, but you gotta reload the ammo.

Also, there isn't loot like there was in the first game.

finally got my copy today so will try it out later.
Rumors of my demise have been greatly exagerated.

Please don't feed the troll. I'm currently not hungry.
