So i don't know if any of you like mass effect , but the 2ND one will be out 1Q of 2010.
for any one who has bin following ME 2 will know that your ship from MRE 1 gets banged up rather badly.
well it seems last night Bioware put up sum new Screenshots showing off the new ship you will have in ME2 as well as two of the (rumored) 17 squad members you can have in ME 2

-
The first quarter of 2009? That was several months ago.

woops i mean 2010

I love Mass Effect. Nice graphics, interesting story and cool characters.
I wonder if Shepard is gonna be promoted. Saving the universe and all.
for any one who has bin following ME 2 will know that your ship from MRE 1 gets baned up rather badly.
The ship still looks like a frigate. If it wasn't for the SR2 shining on its hull, I would have said it was the Normandy!
(rumored) 17 squad members
Seventeen squad members? :o If the squad members from ME are available, I'll stick to Ash and Garus. Or maybe a Salarian if there's gonna be one.
-
its rumored thats thers going to be 17 but i dont think there will be 17 ithink its going to be more 11 seeming as you only have 5 in ME1.
by the way the green guy is Thane, He is a confirmed squad member. And the Krogan is grunt a nother squad member you can have.
and some of the squad members from ME will be comeing back.
EDIT:
New ME2 Trailer about an hour old

-
Nice trailer. Thanks for the link. ;)
-
Looks better HD (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pqbv1K8sNyY) ;D
i dont know if i like grunt better then Wrex atm.
-
Yayz! HD! :o
I don't like Krogans in general. I killed Wrex at Vermire. Didn't like his attitude.
I like Turians.
-
i love that club the afterLife
-
hey M8 the normandy gets DESTORYED! and shepard joins up with that group of racists called cerberus.
-
sos for double posting but there are gonna be lots of squad members but only six can travel with you just like in the original,but you can contantly recruit or fire pople to get the ones u want. apparently.i hope theres gonna be a special edition of it.
-
shepard joins up with that group of racists called cerberus.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? :crrry: :crrry: :crrry:
-
hey M8 the normandy gets DESTORYED! and shepard joins up with that group of racists called cerberus.
yes he works with them and its will be about 11 you can recruit as to some of the things the Dev's have said on the ME 2 forum if you leave some on your new ship and don't take them out they could leave you as well as betray you.
-
if you leave some on your new ship and don't take them out they could leave you as well as betray you.
That's interesting! :HA:
-

That's interesting! :HA:
That really is.kind disturbing too as im usally a lovely guy.I dont like betrayal but when working with criminals i cant say im surprised.
-
yes it is.what i like best is that Without the party member
-
They can leave your party or be killed.
They can be killed?:crrry:
-
They can leave your party or be killed.
They can be killed?:crrry:
I hope so. if we do get to use some old party members i think i will make sure Wrex,garrus,ashley,liara and tali join with me again...just a quick Q shepard is going after a way to fight the reapers isnt he?
Oh btw you can shoot limbs off in this game according to the site thats gonna be fun.
-
I hate it when party members die. Fallout 3 has this feature and it sucks. >:(
if we do get to use some old party members i think i will make sure Wrex,garrus,ashley,liara and tali join with me again
I only used Garrus and Ashley. Liara and Tali were useless and Wrex was annoying.
Oh btw you can shoot limbs off in this game according to the site thats gonna be fun.
Yeah. It would be cool. (hm)
-
just a quick Q shepard is going after a way to fight the reapers isnt he?
only the uys at biowar know that.
They can leave your party or be killed.
They can be killed?:crrry:
Yes but not in the way as in you go round a corner and fined 20 bad guys who pump you full of what ever there fireing.
its more like Virmire but the only difrents is that if you make the wrong choice then both your Squadmates could die.
So in short ME2 is all about choice when it comes to Squadmates make the wrong choice and you could die and fail the final mission in the game.
-
AWESOME pre-ordering now.Not waiting till january anymore.

Glad to hear this. ;)

-"Two years after Commander Shepard repelled invading Reapers bent on the destruction of organic life, a mysterious new enemy has emerged. On the fringes of known space, something is silently abducting entire human colonies. Now Shepard must work with Cerberus, a ruthless organization devoted to human survival at any cost, to stop the most terrifying threat mankind has ever faced.
To even attempt this perilous mission, Shepard must assemble the galaxy
-
Sorry For duble posting but:
Prepare for a suicide mission to save humanity
Choose between 19 different weapon classes
Devastating heavy weapons (that) can end a battle in seconds
Recruit a team of the galaxy
-
yes i know all of that lol and yes there are mass effect books out.
Revelation set just befor the 1st game (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mass-Effect-Revelation-Drew-Karpyshyn/dp/1841496758/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252510079&sr=8-8)
Ascension set just after the 1st game (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mass-Effect-Ascension-Drew-Karpyshyn/dp/1841496766/ref=pd_sim_b_1)

Mass Effect was a pretty good game. Not something I would play more than once or twice. The storyline was alright, the graphics had problems, and the choices weren't all that great..but it was still a pretty solid game. I'm sure the second one will ether suck twice as bad, or be twice as good ;)

Thats just Sick.ME ruled and ME2 will rule 3 times as hard!

New ME 2 video at the end of the week or early next week
quote from Me 2 forums from Jarrett Lee Marketing Manager at Bioware
Hey guys - there would have been a new video last week but we had a few hiccups.
Probably end of the week or early next week you'll be seeing a new video for ME2 (Grunt video is old news already? - argh the weeks are flying by!).
And this one....this is kinda unlike anything we've had before in Mass Effect. I'm kinda pumped for you to see it, and see what you think.
And yeah, although ME2 is not at TGS this year, you should hopefully start to see a steadier pace of content, videos and screens etc. Actually I would post lots more of the "universe fiction" (alien races etc) but the poor team has to write that stuff and they have this little game they gotta finish
EDIT:
Some rather good news (if its true)
I was just looking on the ME 2 forum at a topic about a Comic-con interview on the Mass Effect comic.
interview (http://www.gametrailers.com/video/pax-09-mass-effect/56349)
now a quote from a nother topic on the ME forums
BioWare and Dark Horse Comics are very pleased to announce a Mass Effect comic series published by Dark Horse, Mass Effect Redemption. Mass Effect: Redemption is scheduled to launch in January 6, 2010.
BioWare and Dark Horse Comics today announced a.In Mass Effect: Redemption, the story takes readers through the treacherous events leading up to Mass Effect 2 which opens with galactic hero Commander Shepard having mysteriously gone missing and left to fight for survival. What unfolds next will expose readers to new locations, aliens and extended storyline in the Mass Effect universe.
The Mass Effect: Redemption story is written by Lead Writer Mac Walters at BioWare. Walters is the script writer behind Mass Effect 2. He brings unique insight to the Mass Effect comic and nuance of the world within. The comic is scripted by John Jackson Miller (Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, The Invincible Iron Man) and drawn by Omar Francia (Star Wars Legacy). This first four-part series explores the exotic and dangerous future Milky Way of Mass Effect, revealing previously unseen locations, aliens, and enemies of this rich science fiction landscape.
So contact your local comic shop today and add Mass Effect: redemption to your files, so you don't miss out.

Have you worked it out?
-
Uh i worked out that the video was AWESOME and that ME2 will be what i expected ME1 to be and that you can form relationships with team members and that part of the game will be based with shepard on the normandy maybe bout a quarter or so but what was i supposed to work out?Anyways my theory is that the reapers have finally used FTL drive to leave Dark Space and are at the edge of our galaxy.Thats what i think.
-
LOL watch the interview then look at the 1st two lines of the Quote

That's just speculation and the Devs have all ready said that its just speculation.
WE HAS DATE!! (http://blog.bioware.com/2009/10/16/bonus-content-for-reserved-copies-of-mass-effect/) <------ link

Those armors look pretty cool. It's unfortunate that I can't have any of them. :'(
It says that the Terminus armor allows for "an additional magazine of reserve ammo". Sounds like the weapons will have limited ammo. That's bad. >:(

Thats GREAT! means well have to be more tactical not just hah ill kill u with my infinite ammo HAH!....gonna be fun!
-
means well have to be more tactical not just hah ill kill u with my infinite ammo HAH!
This game isn't a tactical shooter, it's action role playing.
The role playing part is gonna be ruined if they put too much attention into the action part.

I prefer it to be as accuarte to real life as it can be while including the RPG parts and other parts.

I just hope they keep the dialogue as deliciously awesome.

Nice maybe its new scars for char select?
-
Maybe they'll copy Star Wars and have a Light/Dark side system.
-
Darth Commander Shepard? :HA:
Maybe that Cerberus group will do something to him. Or maybe he will become a Reaper.

Ok bioware made KOTOR so they have a right to copy the good/evil side of things and in ME its called Paragon(Good) and Renegade(Evil).
Darth Commander Shepard? :HA:
Maybe that Cerberus group will do something to him. Or maybe he will become a Reaper.
And Darth Commander Shepard LOL! But he aint a reaper...Soverign was a reaper big Dreadnaughts = Reaper but my bet is thats some sort of sickness or plot event or maybe a character upgrade/perk or so on.
