Mass Effect 2. Somebody's getting shot and thrown out a window

Do you mean story-wise?

Actions that had consequences from the first game will carry over

Surviving members of your team will carry over, ones who died won’t
Saving the councel
Racni Queen
romance
Conrad Verner

Except for all the trailers of the other returning characters

Garrus, Anderson, Joker, Pressly, Liara, Nassana, and all surviving crew members

Cool thanks.

That’s all I’ve heard, thought maybe there was some new news.

I guess it’s just the appearance or something.
If so I’d probably just start brand new cause there’s sure to be better options to choose from now.

Nah, gameplay-wise.

They show her in your party in the trailer.

Fuuuck, I loved ME one…but I sold my 360 and dont have my save anymore…looks like I’m buying a new one and speed running through one haha.

Or you could be awesome and play the PC version.

What class will you guys play as? I think that I may play as the Sentinel like I did in the first Mass Effect.

Adept was the only worthwhile class to play, the other non-biotic based classes were pretty pointless. Hopefully all the other classes wont suck as much ass in ME2

That is a grossly inaccurate statement.

ME is probably still my favorite game this gen so far, I lost count on how many times I completed just to see the effect different choices had. I mostly played the boring ass soldier class on ME, so I might switch it up for 2. Pre-ordered the CE, going to pick it up the second it’s out.

I was a vanguard in the first mass effect. If I can throw people around and be a monster in close quarters again I might pick Vanguard again.

I wonder if the warp punch is vanguard only, because that is the only trailer that they showed it in. I’m really looking forward to the unique skill an infiltrator or soldier would have.

My PC cant handle it, and I wont have enough money to buy a better one, console is just easier to deal with.

I was at a conference call with Bioware about ME2 a few weeks ago and wrote up an article. You can check it out here:

I also left some things out…

  1. You get to “build” your own equipment.
  2. IIRC, they said there are 15 total playable characters (I may be mistaken).
  3. You don’t have to “unlock” the ability to use different weapon types.

I played Vanguard for the longest in the first game, and now I’m leveling an Infiltrator. I’ll probably level every class to sixty at some point, though.

the one class i didnt like was the solider class. it was too generic for me

I’m sure they’ll recap, but I’d also hope they’ll let you change the decisions from ME1 at the start of a New Game + mode. I think I went through the original 3 or 4 times and made a bunch of different combinations of decisions. Not only do I not remember what I did for whatever file I may or may not have saved I really don’t feel like having to replay the first game to change the context of the second one. It’s one thing to not have a party member. It’s a whole 'nother thing to play the game with/without a disbanded council. Also I’m sure who’s leading it would have a few consequences on gameplay.

Even If ME2 recaps, anyone who plays it without beating the first at least once is depriving themselves of mass entertainmrnt.

Vanguard psycho crusher dizzies 100% of the time:lovin:

Yeah, they actually specifically talked about this at the conference call. When you’re picking which game to load up, it actually gives you a list of what decisions you made that alter the story. The things they said specifically were popping/not popping Wrex, Ashley/Kaidan, who you fuck and saving/not saving the Council. But they also said there’s other, less-obvious stuff as well.

No you can change classes if you choose as well as appearance. I made a badass lesbian engineer chick and I’ll use her in the next game as well.

I beat the game as an renegade engineer and it was mad fun. I love the engineer class so I’ll use it in the next, but I wish you could dual pistol that shit down.

Looking forward to this one and I’m lad to see tali back as she was my fav character.

Also are the current lists regarding choices affecting game play concrete? I’m looking back through the game and I’m think that the issue with mr. bahtia and his wife is one of the more important choices that could affect ME2.
