2 Girls 1 Let's Play - Mass Effect 2 RENEGADE Part 2: Dead?
201Miranda is here to save the day!
This is the second mission of the prologue. It begins right after completing Prologue: Save Joker, and it serves a dual purpose as a tutorial, providing a basic combat tutorial and introducing field mission concepts. This mission situates Commander Shepard in the Mass Effect 2 universe as a Cerberus operative with a new team.
After the destruction of the Normandy SR-1 two years ago, Shepard's body was recovered shortly after death by Cerberus, who spent the time rebuilding Shepard into a cybernetically-enhanced symbol of humanity. After the opening credits, which show Shepard literally being rebuilt by the Lazarus Project, Shepard awakens on an operating table at the Lazarus Research Station to alarm bells ringing, as the station's personnel come under attack from its own security mechs. Although alone and under-equipped, Shepard is guided by the station's commanding officer Miranda Lawson via the loudspeaker to safety.
Escaping the Lazarus station Edit
The beginning of this mission serves a dual purpose as the game's tutorial level. You must walk to the locker to obtain a pistol and armor, and then must take cover to avoid damage from an explosion which blows the room's door. This allows you to exit the room and find a spare thermal clip on the floor, just past the door. Insert the thermal clip into the pistol to unlock the door to the next room. When you move on, Miranda's voice will tell you to vault over a low obstacle. A lone LOKI Mech, which arrives from the stairway, will have to be destroyed. Collect more thermal clips from the room if you wish, and then head upstairs, where Shepard receives a radio warning that several more mechs are coming, and that the safest way to dispose of them is to take cover until they are destroyed.
During the shuttle ride from Lazarus station to another Cerberus facility, Miranda will ask you to answer questions about the past, to assess Shepard's memory. Jacob finds the exercise unnecessary, and you may stop the conversation at any time by choosing some variant of "We're done here!". If you imported a Mass Effect save file they will ask you about who joined the Council. Whatever you answer will turn out to be true regardless of what choice you actually made. For example, if you chose Captain Anderson to join the Council but to this question you answer Ambassador Udina, Udina will be the Councilor.
Cerberus facilityYou now arrive at a waiting room in the facility, where you can change armor or casual appearance using a console in the wall, but will be unable to take any further actions until speaking with the Illusive Man. To this end, enter the communications room, where the Illusive Man explains that entire human colonies and thousands of colonists have gone missing. He will ask Shepard to investigate Freedom's Progress, the latest colony to go missing, with the assistance of Miranda and Jacob. You may inquire after further information, and up to 8 Paragon/Renegade points may be awarded, depending on your dialogue choices.
You then return to the waiting area, where it is now possible to talk with Jacob and Miranda for further Paragon/Renegade points. Taking the door out of the entrance will end the mission and start Freedom's Progress.
