ME2LE - Hammerhead issues
So I don't think I have to talk much about the painful (literally!) sound of resource gathering (Topic 1, Topic 2, Topic 3). How did they leave this out of the initial patches is just completely beyo...
I recommend not doing the DLC missions on Insanity, unless they are Zaeed and Kasumi, and just beat the main story only to go at the 3 DLC side quests with a lower difficulty so that there aren't trophy hunting issues. It would have been great had Bioware given the tank an upgrade path like they did with the Normandy in ME2.

Kasumi's mission is hella difficult if you are doing it early game - which I have, since I'm playing as a Sentinel now, and I needed the Locust. I can't even imagine getting through the game all the way to Haestrom with that crappy starter SMG...
But it's fine, it's just difficult without being actually frustrating. When you need to cheese out fights (as is the case with the Hammerhead), well that's a bummer for me.
Anyway, I do everything on Insanity. If something heavily differs from the overall experience (e.g. Hammerhead in ME2 or the initial Citadel DLC combat in ME3), I tend to mark it up as a mistake on the game's part.
I've also done Arrival's Object Rho battle on my XSX playthrough like that, only to find out that the achievement does not exist anymore, lol. The pain...

The "bee" part is also pretty correct. Considering that it fires rockets, the damage output feels worse on the armored turrets than Mordin's heavy incinerate ability...
