I would have done that, but I had just completed a playthrough as an adept with Liara and Tali and I wanted to do something else. Having that much crowd control is nuts, even just with an adept and Liara, but it was kind of fun to do it all on my own, too. (I played my sentinel with Wrex and Garrus.)

Honestly the only thing I didn't like about stasis mastery was that my squad wouldn't attack stasised enemies. That's why I used lift more. (Singularity is awesome but affects fewer enemies.)

Man, I'm starting to remember why I soured on this game the more I play it. The combat just breaks down so much as it gets harder. Between the AI and the god awful shooting it's starting to get so frustrating during combat.

Combat AI for your squad really drove me nuts sometimes. Also the godawful inventory. I hope they'll have at least fixed those when they're breaking everything else -.-

That character seems so lame :/

Although those facial animations in the interview sequences look fucking phenomenal.

I would just like to say that I really hope that level of facial expression becomes the norm sooner rather than later, because that would be a great tool to help a player to empathize with characters.

edit: i guess ill add that they need to higher some writers, that character looks sooooo one dimensional.

Wow, new vid released today, and I gotta say, this one was really cool. Lots of info, both from Casey Hudson, and from the video itself. Also, during the times they show Casey on camera, look at the monitor behind him. At one time, 2:28-2:40, I saw some kind of minigame that might be the new decryption game, but that's just a hunch. Anyway, watch this.

Nice, although that was a user-movie, so this is before the official release of the video. I'll update the OP with the HD-version as soon as it's available, probably tomorrow.

Personally, I think the Soldier is the least fun class to play, although I gotta say that it looks a hell of a lot better than the ME1-Soldier.

Edit: Lol, wut. I went to check on http://masseffect.bioware.com/ to see if they had said anything about the Soldier there, but the website was down atm. I gotta say, Bioware's pretty funny at times. Here's what it said:

Our Apologies
Sorry folks; those pesky Gnomes are banging away at the giant; steam-producing clockwork computers we keep in the basement guarded by Swikky the dire squirrel. We will be back up as soon as we can.


Edit 2: Ok, Bioware's back online, and yes, the video exists there as well. Still no sign of it on GT though.

Mh does anyone know what happens when you played through the game, then replayed the game but only finished like a 3rd of it and then use that savegame for mass effect 2?
What happens to all those things that I did in the first try but didnt even get to in the second one?

The game makes a save when you finish the game ( when you get the picture of shepard, a space station and a planet in the background (red if you were renegade and blue if you were a paragon).

Only that save can be used in ME2. If you almost completed it again, it doesn't matter. Only that save, that is made at the very end of your playthrough will matter.

You choose which "saved game" to continue. Either your play through 1 or play through 2.
You can choose to import them both (actually you can import as many as you want playthroughs) but they don't interact with each other in any way, even if they were succesive play thoroughs

Not sure, Bioware hasn't released everything about the transfer yet, but I know it's one specific savefile you're supposed to transfer, so I suspect it's the last one in your game, and therefore, if you transfer your last savefile from your first playthrough, those decitions alone should affect ME2. (Can't guarantee this, but I'm 80% sure this is the case.)

There is a post about a few things in the News section on GT about save-transfer, in case you haven't seen it.
http://www.gametrailers.com/news/?page=40&rdir=1

Speaking of ME2 on GT-News, I just found thisas well. Pretty cool.

K, thanks for clearing that up. Got any link to any confirmation? (I don't disbelieve you, I was quite sure of the same myself, but still)

And speaking of the Paragon/Renegade-Ending screen, I've heard that if you get the exact same amount of Paragon & Renegade points when you finish the game, you will get an Easter Egg banner instead, which is purple and has some cool stuff on it, but I've never been able to find a pic of it, and even though I've tried it myself by getting 100% Paragon & 100% Renegade, apperantly that didn't count, because since you can get more pts than the scale shows, it didn't count as the same amount. Anyone else here that has seen the pic I'm refering to?

Oh, and the HD-Soldier Trailer just popped up on GT. Adding it to OP.

Save File Transfer. Hint in the words "completed" playthrough.

I can't find the post right now, but Pressley said that a game is considered as a completed playthrough when you get that last screen.

Does anyone know if you transfer your ME1 save it'll let you reroll your character? I don't really want to play a soldier again.

You'll be able to change that and much more. Your class, your gender, your appearance etc. Pretty much everything you got to decide when you started ME1 will reappear here. The only thing you can't do as I know of is changing your background (Earthborn/Colonist/Spacer & War Hero/Sole Survivor/Ruthless), since your background now is ME1.

Haha great to see more Mass Effect fans on TL ^^. I personally have a Vanguard lv 56 ATM and am playing on hardcore. I always have Wrex and Garrus with me on every assignment. I never really liked the other squadmates =(. Anyway, you will be able to transfer your Shepard into ME2. The only thing really that will transfer over is if you were lv 50/60, paragon/renegade, and the choices you made in ME1

+ Show Spoiler +
if you killed wrex, killed off ashley or kaiden, released/killed the rachni queen, and your love interest, if you chose to save the council, who you chose for the human representative etc.
You will be able to "respec" your class from X to Y, also you will be able to change the appearance of your Shepard.


As for ME2, I dunno if I'll change anything. I'm also not too fond of the crew(squadmates) that have been revealed so far. But I'm looking forward to continuing the story.

Edit: So, yeah, i was wrong on the whole "change gender" thing, but the other things are spot on.


What he said. (Guys, even though I made the OP, remember to check all of Latham's posts as well, seems the two of us are most updated here o.0)

New vid released. I gotta say, even though we pretty much knew 90% of this, it's pretty damn cool anyway:

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/n7-developer-mass-effect/60951

And I can't help but notice: At the end of the vid, you see
Ashley. Now, I've heard that most of the love interests will be characters that aren't part of your squad so that they won't permanently die. Does that mean Ash' is one of 'em?

Is this game worth buying a 360 for? Because the game looks amazing to be honest.

EDIT: Or buying a really good computer.
