Bloody hell - hope not. Her attacks will be lethal. Especially her venomous "I'm always right" beam and "whats this on my credit card" attack.
My my.
Anyway. I got Thermal Visor (that whole section is incredible. The game mixes high octane FPS with adventuring with such ease) and the Ice Beam.
Now for the crashed frigate......

Yes they are.

First you must acquire the Gravity Suit. From Phendrana bloody rifts. It's so far away... pirates...everywhere...
Now where the hell is that......?
(no one tell me)
Near the thermal visor. Methinks.
The only complaint I have about the game so far is the scanning. Its a great little addition, but it can be bloody annoying when you're trying to scan enemies and you're getting the crap kicked out of you while you do it.
Like when I've been up against the bosses, cause I want to make sure I scan them and stuff, I end up getting hit as I try to dodge and get the damn scan to upload at the same time - then once thats done, I have to let go of the 'L' button and quickly get back to weapons and lock on before I get pummelled again.
Another little complain is when you have two tough enemies in a crappy small space. So you really can't avoid getting hit. I'm talking about those ones you have to shot from behind in Phenandra Drifts.
That got annoying.
Thats it in the complaints from me though. Anyone who doesn't like the lock on in the game is a psycho because it really is NEEDED. Unless you wanna stand still trying to aim and get shot to hell, you have to use the lock on ability so you can then concentrate on dodging attacks.
I love the way that even though its through an FPS view, it still feels like a Metroid game and not something totally new.
