Description
I was playing on Insanity. This is how my first battle with the Praetorian went.Holy crap! This isn't going to be fun.
*Realises I have a shot left in the Cain*
Yes! One hit kill!
*Jumps out of hiding*
*Does a cool commando roll towards the Praetorian*
*Charges the weapon*
*Uses a cheesy one-liner*
*Fires at the Praetorian! ...which is three metres away*
*Dramatic slow-motion explosion*
Game Over.
And of course, everyone is dead and the Praetorian still has a third of its health.
And there isn't a scorch mark on anything else.

first time using the cain, yeah that's me. That's also why I prefer the ML-77 missile launcher.

I love how Bioware's logic works.
(WARNING contains spoilers for anyone that hasn't beat ME 3 yet)
ME 2- a Caine can't even take on a Praetorian..... ME 3- a caine can destroy a Reaper
....................yeeeeeeeeeeeah....

in insanity difficulty?

I've heard its brutal as hell but i've only tried hardcore/ veteran/ the second to hardest difficult so i have no idea

If you start insanity from level 1 it's ridiculous. Β If you reload your character at 30 it's not that different from Veteran. Β Either way it's a lot of fun since you need to be way more strategic.

ah yeah i guess some like things that are super challenging. I dont care much for it and prefer story overall
π: 0 β©: 2
Likewise. Try Platinum in MP. Impossible without a Volus and Geth juggernaut

Fair enough! I like to do multiple playthroughs, the first is always for story. Everything after that is for the challenge

Right yeah

That's one reason why the Mass Effect trilogy is (in my mind) the best game series of the modern generation, it offers an insane challenge with a captivating story.

uhh i guess. I dont know if id go that far but yeah its great. I mean idk maybe it is the best video game triliogy since there is no real competition. There are no other video game triliogies. The other triliogies they used to have, keep being extended and soon ME could be extended so its not even really a trilogy
also any gaming trilogies that do remain other than ME, tend to suck

Agreed, I suppose I'm jaded since ME2 was technically only the second video game I ever played (late bloomer in the gaming world). Β The only other trilogy that didn't go down the tubes was Gears of War, and that doesn't even come close to the ME series. Β I'm hoping that the Witcher trilogy turns out amazing. Β

First of all Gears of War stopped being a trilogy when it made a game for Baird and then made a game for random outcasts as an expansion for RAAM. Its not a trilogy at all. Secondly i hate those games and only thing i like about them is the Serans since i love the Serans, cant stand everything else about that game for being the most sexiest thing ever created and the fact that it wasnt banned baffles my mind. In fact the only reason i think it wasnt baffled because women are too disgusted by the game to even look at it and complain at it
never got into the Witcher games so ill have to take ur word for it
π: 0 β©: 1
That is true, Gears kinda sold out with the extra games and weird add ons. Β The Witcher is quite possibly the most "Mature" game I've ever played, but if you can look past that, it has a very deep story that completely draws you in. Β

i know the Witcher is a full on sex game, having full on sex scenes but idk it never appealed to me. It seems just like dragon Age except it seems theres little choice in the game and the choice there is, is just stupid

Fair enough. To each there own

Indeed

Not really sure at this point, but whatever it was, I'm sure it was a pleasure chatting with you

Huh, i never figured out that gun. The only time I actually fired it sucesfully was after finding a loaded on in me3.
π: 0 β©: 0
This was also what i did but on the mec gunship when saving garrus... same thing happened. but i still use the cain when i feel lazy with heavy Mechs
π: 0 β©: 0
heh the only time i used the cain was for the reaper boss
π: 0 β©: 0
All I can say is there's a reason why I avoided the Cain. Several reasons revolve around but the biggest was the nuclear symbol on the side that screamed, yeah no. So I never really used it.
π: 0 β©: 0
Hahaha! I did that too! ...I don't use the Cain anymore, Arc Projector for me all the way.

You didn't get the fridge personal defense upgrade? [link]
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh damn! Should have researched that first.
π: 0 β©: 0
Lol you're so brave to play on insanity. I haven't even summoned up the courage to play on hardcore even though I'm finding Veteran a bit easy
π: 0 β©: 0
I did that once. I laughed for 5 minutes straight afterwards.
π: 0 β©: 0
Oh jeez. I used the Cain twice: once on the Thresher Maw, and once on the computer core of that derelict reaper.

The Praetorian is a ffffkin bullet eater. Even on normal you can literally go out of ammo trying to get it down -depending on class and research level- And yeah i sometimes had something in the line of fire with cain, right in the moment of release, like Garrus running across or something...

Mordin : optmal firing distance is 15 meters Shepard
Shepard : ya ya Mordin just give me the gun I know what I am doing.

I've done this twice though now with a Praetorian. The third time I pulled the Cain out Garrus took it away till I learned how to play with it. *sniff*
π: 0 β©: 0
ahahaha XDD
I think everyone fucked up at least once with the Cain and fired it point-blank.
π: 0 β©: 0
the first time I used Cain, it was in a confined space because I didn't really know how it worked. yellow cake should've tipped me off. wasn't pretty, never tried that again.
π: 0 β©: 0
I never got the weapon to work....I was using it against a threshar maw too!
π: 0 β©: 1
you need to have enough heavy weapon ammo for a 100% charge...it wont fire otherwise
π: 0 β©: 0
I did the exact same thing when I first obtained the Cain though I used it on a gunship during Garrus's recruitment mission........when I finally stopped crying I spent the next three hours laughing on the floor!
π: 0 β©: 0
I did about the same thing except after jumping out, I realized I had not switched to the cain...so I shot it with a heavy postol and preceeded to get smashed
