Opiate42 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Plus must operate controller with one hand only. Don't forget the blindfold. I'm considering starting from level 1 on insanity, class TBD, just for shits and giggles. This shit looks pretty intense Bahroo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark wing Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 -Must be dressed as Orville. I might give it a go, sounds fun yet like a nightmare at the same time. -Squadmates powers must be set to "Free use" -Cannot order squadmates to attack a specific target. God I hate having my squad mates use powers at random when I need them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helium Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I got this challenge a little bit ago and thought I would post it here for those who might want to try their luck with something a little harder than the normal Insanity. -Start at level 1 Might be hard to import level 1 charecter because importing already from 1 gets you to level 3 or 5. Don't really want to play without import charecter. Otherwise doesn't sound too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't really want to play without import charecter. Otherwise doesn't sound too bad. I'm sure this can be overlooked since you can't put the extra points in fitness anyway and you are going to have -200% recharge from all the heavy weapon so extra power does really doesn't help at all. Besides, this is a good excuse to see what the story looks like w/o an import. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hansathan Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I like this series too much to put myself through all that and risk putting myself off it for good. Plus, I'm only 3/4 done with my Insanity run. MP keeps distracting me! The former card collector in me has grown fond of the "trading card" unlock system.

Bahroo3 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 \ I may take a kick at this here can, but no promises!! I was contemplating a powers-and-pistol-only level 1 Adept insanity run. This carry all default weapons scheme is intriguing, but I can see with that many weapons, power recharge at a max slowness, and enemies being at bullet sponge difficulty....this is literally the exact opposite of my plan. Troubled waters ahead! Yeah you will always be at -200% which makes it impossible to perform a biotic/tech combo and negates the vanguard method since it puts charge cool down at 22s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrummers Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 HMMM maybe. You should have to turn off autosave and if you you could turn off checkpoints. And you can only do a manual save once every 10 hours. Now that would be some crazy shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I3east Lig3r Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 No going to ammo crates, all ammo must be picked up from enemies killed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macd Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Hell no. Though Insanity was no where near as bad as I expected, I'm now playing on narrative which is far more fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunterking Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) Why not spice it up? Your setup sounds too easy. Start the game 1. Let your dog/cat choose your class by letting him play with the controller. Whatever class it lands on you have to pick. 2. Set brightness to lowest possible but still visable. 3. Set gameplay to insane ofcourse. 4. Set yourself up on the couch but go and sit upside down. 5. Have your little sister practice her piano recital in the same room. (Substitute by little brother dancing to Justin Bieber or parents having BDSM sex if little sister is not present or available) 6. Switch you surround set channels from front to back and left to right so you have no idea where sounds come from. 7. Only shoot enemies spawned on even numbers and melee the odd spawned enemies. (Exmpl: You melee spawn 1, shoot 2 and melee 3) 8. You can only reload your weapon once every 1 minute, but only if you have melee killed 7 odd spawned enemies. 9. You can only use your powers if 1 teammate is down and is of the male gender and your other teammate is of the female gender and does not have auto use powers on and has shot less than 1/8 of the odd spawned enemies you should have melee killed. 10. Turrets and Banshees may only be killed by melee attacks (not heavy!). 11. Kai leng must be beat using Vega and Kaiden in your team whilst not using powers and only having the m3 HP equiped. 12. When taking a bathroom break you may not pause the game. 13. When bathroom break is taken in gaming room you may not come out of the upside down position and you can not ask your little sister, brother or parents to help you out during your releave mission. 14. You are not allowed to play multiplayer to raise your EMS and readiness. 15. You can not take cover during firefights. 16. You can't eat during the entire playthrough (irl). I think this would be a hoot and a half!! Oh and childeren, no using those medigel during this playthrough!

ABD CakeTime Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 This sounds like a fun challenge, except that I hate the Katana, it is the worst gun in the history of ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahroo3 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 This sounds like a fun challenge, except that I hate the Katana, it is the worst gun in the history of ever. I am currently doing this and guess how many Katana shots it takes to kill a brute? Don't know because all 25 didn't even take off 1 bar of armor.............

Grifter Reborn Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Okay. This thread has completely derailed. For those who wish to discuss the ending, there's a "sticky" thread just for that. Otherwise, can we get back on topic before this thread becomes closed or deleted? OT- I still think your crazy for this challenge Bahroo3. However, I do applaud the desire to keep challenging yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XcS Dead Deer Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 11. Kai leng must be beat using Vega and Kaiden in your team whilst not using powers and only having the m3 HP equiped. What happens if you save Ashley and not Kaiden? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwtaylor1980 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I think it should be "realism" mode: if you die, you must restart the entire game with a new character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
