Official Mass Effect 2 thread

[Bob]

Ah the official thread!

[Razorus]

So as not to upset Rob, I've posted a link to a bit of news below rather than a new headline; a new character reveal. Apologies if this has been done before, but I didn't bother to read the thread.

HOLY SHIT. She's awesome, she's definatly in my squad on the first play..

ALSO CHECK OUT THE SIZE OF THAT FUCKING GETH!

I really can't fucking wait for this..... Has anyone got a rough idea of when it's expected to be released?.... Cause i'm praying it's not xmas next year... It can't be right?! They keep releasing more and more promo stuff to build up hype..

[Razorus]

I think its going to come out sometime in April next year. I too, cannot wait. This crazy chick seems like fun. And she has a mouth on her! I don't recall any swearing in ME1 so this is proof that Bioware are going all out, more maturity and more sexy times. ROUGH sexy times it seems.

This may have been covered before but what is it you can carry over to ME2? Is it your ME1 character or your last ME1 save?

It's the character and all the decisions you made but not the levelling. You're back to level zero for ME2.

I've started trying to finish my sixth shepard. Not that keen on that Subject Zero or that new Krogan guy Grunt or whatever he's called he better not be a replacement for Wrex who has to be in Me2.

[Cerebral_Wolf]

I Think grunt or whatever his name is will be the stand in for Wrex if Wrex got killed in your ME1 save..

Also, just for the record, everyone knows you play shep right? and the whole "shep being KIA and your not playing him in the game" was just the bioware hype machine right?..

I believe it's been comfirmed by bioware too now.

What if someone like me who had two Sheps? A guy and a gal? Who will continue?

[Cerebral_Wolf]

I think that's pretty obvious gugly..

You'll get to choose at the start of the game


I've got about 4-5 on the go as i wanted to cover all the different options so i don't miss anything on me2.

I think Grunt's in every playthrough regarless of your descision to kill off wrex.

Does anyone know what will happen regarding carrying my character over:

Basically I played through once on normal being as nice as pie then started a second playthrough (same character on hard) being a cnut but got sidetracked a quarter of the way through and never finished it this second time....

Will it just pick the save from the completed first playthrough?

If not, does anyone know which save I have to delete back to so it seems I only played once?

[Cerebral_Wolf]

my understanding is that only complete saves will be used..

[Tom909]

my understanding is that only complete saves will be used..

Hmmm.... I presume that means it'll be able to pick up the fact that I completed it once and use that save?
