thats really cool, i wonder if going to be able to change ur class without losing all the saves from MS1 to MS2, lest say u were a soldier in MS1 and and u want to be an engineer in ME2 but u don't want to lose all ur weapons, upgrades and armors u had in the soldier class in ME1, that will be classic

aspergersyndrome6298d ago (Edited 6298d ago )

I think they will offer new classes for Mass Effect characters, however they will probably be based on your original class. So a Soldier may learn a few Tech or Biotic skills, but will remain primarily a soldier.

Pebz6298d ago

I doubt you will be able to keep your gear and stats, you will most likely start at level 1 again, but with spectre training and such taken into account.

My guess would be that you meet an NPC who asks you certain questions about events in ME1, and your answers decide who is alive and whatnot in ME2 if you start a new game, or those answer are pre-defined if you load up a save-game. Sort of like in KOTOR 2.

@1.1 Those branched out classes already exist; Infiltrator (soldier/engineer), Sentinel (adept/engineer) and Vanguard (soldier/adept).

1.) Mass Effect

PS360WII6298d ago

Awesome more dlc for the first Mass Effect! Least I hope it'll come out as we will have to wait at least another year for the second one to come :(

Bioware writes: "Like you, we’ve heard the rumors lately. You’ve made it clear you care deeply about what’s next. So let’s start by setting the record straight: the next Mass Effect game is in development, and EA and BioWare remain committed to telling more stories in this universe."

I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed

Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.

toxic-inferno190d ago

I feel the same way.

I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?

Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.

Profchaos190d ago

Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year

jznrpg190d ago

I still haven’t beat Andromeda. I am waiting for a lull of good games in my backlog

P_Bomb190d ago

So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?

Rebel_Scum190d ago

Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast523d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine523d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast523d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman523d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast523d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman522d ago

it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me

4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

DustMan771d ago

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave771d ago (Edited 771d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
