Kotora, what are you on about? Did you never play through 1? The combat in ME has always been shooting your way through rooms with convieniently placed boxes. Frankly, having done nearly the entire game on insanity for the first one I can safely say the "shoot everything til it dies" works in every situation bar none. The only time the combat got different is when the Mako was involved and well in 2 the Mako was gone (though I loved the DLC Hammerhead! Awesome times zipping round worlds in that wish we had the choice of doing old school ME1 planetary exploration or the scanner stuff, personally would never use a single bloody probe!!)
sure combat was similar in ME1 and 2, but the areas were much less repetitive in the first one, they were more open and there were much less cover boxes and we got a smurfload more equipment customization. While there was too much equipment lying around in the first one, in the second they screwed it up by oversimplifying everything to cater to the XBox audience. I thought the system with the weapon overheating was better than having to pick up the "heat" (ie ammo) clips lying around the battlefield.
They were supposed to improve upon the combat system of the first one, not cater to the lowest common denominator and turn it into another cheap TPS. But then again I guess all the Xbox kiddies loved it.
also I never understood why people were bitching about the Mako. I thought those parts of the game were pretty cool.
