Was difficulty nerfed in general?

What kind of nonsense is this? Anybody who has a decent aim shouldn't have trouble, and btw those stalkers always use a pattern and circulate among fixed positions. Always jump and land on 1-2 spots. Just wait for it and land the shot and they are an easy kill.

For me that just wastes heavy weapon ammo I'd rather asve that for the gunship at the end besides I can still ge tthrough it I was just stating that it can be a tough section which it is.

Yeah normally in tha t5 wave fight I jus tfind a quiet spot to hunker down in and pic kpeople off. It's not easy but if you d ouse a combo of your powers as well as your guns it can be done.  The only thing I generally feel the need to look out for aer the flamethrowers as you need t okeep them at range and take them out fast for it to work.

I have the insanity achievement for ME1 on the 360. lol. I got it by playing on Normal, then changing it to insanity just before I faced Saren for the final conversation. I think Bioware patched it shortly afterward because a lot of people were doing that. 

I hated ME2 on insanity because Shepard wouldn't stay in cover. Plus The Illusive Man being a cheapskate with medigel. That fight on the Collector ship... the one BEFORE you face the praetorian was the end of it. The praetorian? That room is the Cain. 

I tried ME3 on insanity and got as far as the reaper on Rannoch. After fucking with that for 2 hrs and almost throwing my controller several times I dropped it to Narrative so I could get past it. It seemed a lot easier. From there... since the achievement was gone, I just finished on Normal.

Insanity is the best way to experience all three games, OT and LE. When I played OT the first time, Hardcore and Insanity were locked in ME1, so I used console commands to unlock Insanity because I found Veteran to easy. Never had problems starting new game on Insanity.

I save all my heavy ammo for cain shots against the final boss, the fight bores me so I want to speed it down as quick as possible. There are probably enough pickups where i can fire a few grenades or missiles but i just dont want to risk it. I hate that fight.

Yeqah that's the key you need to go fast enough t oget i tdone bu tgo too fast you find yourself getting ambushed. Generally it's the garage bit tha tcauses me trouble th eother doors are fine. Though I was thinking of trying a change in tactic for m ynext playthrough when doing that quest as I'm thinking of doing things differently anyway with my not so perfect Shep. But then I thin kthat's one of the things I'm going t oenjoy about the LE as I think withthe fact I don't hasve t owaste time on the N7HQ app anymore it'll give me moer time t oenjoy the games and try different things.

Bugged in both, but more frequently happens in MELE... not just in the Object Rho fight, but also in several other fights.  Just do one fight a few times back to back and you'll probably find you get one that is either super easy or much harder than the other times.  If it were a planned thing, it would be more consistent.

Oh, I can relate to that one.  My eyesight is a big problem now... prevents me from doing a lot of things.  I still can't help pushing myself to attempt insanity-level runs in the games I enjoy "repeating" the most... and I die... ALOT now.  At any rate, it keeps me from attempting to drive anywhere now.  I keep hoping they'll come up with something that will fix my vision still though too.  Yep... I'm stubborn.

If they planned it to be as inconsistent as it is, then it's pretty poor planning (IMO).  It basically negates the purpose of having different levels of difficulty if, for any battle, you can range from fighting half the number of enemies with major enemies absent entirely to having doubles of the harder enemies spawn in rapid succession.

No thanks I'd rather stick to the plasn I already use
