KEEP PLAYING: Mass Effect (Top 5)

[SeanOrange]

Ah! No, you're right. I think changing it when you start the mission might still be okay.

[RvBdude13]

*Sorry, from veteran to hardcore.



[SeanOrange]

@RvBdude13 I gotcha. ;)

You're not even able to change it until you first land on your mission to Eden Prime, so if you did it right after that you're probably good. I'm not sure how long after that you can wait, but I suspect before you shoot anything. (Just  guess.)

There's also a LOT of weirdness about how many secondary missions you need to complete for the Ally medals. The only way to get the one for Liara is to leave the Citadel AS SOON AS POSSIBLE by only doing the main missions.

[RvBdude13]

@SeanOrange That strange, it let me change the difficulty the first time I was on the Normandy (right after the intro). Oh, thanks for tip on the ally medals, so far I have the ones for ash and wrex.

[RvBdude13]

I started a second playthru and changed the difficulty to from veteran to hardcore at the beginning. Will I still get the achievement or will it not count?

[Ross117]

you can do a second playthrough! wtf! if only i knew that months ago

[LTChaosLT]

LEROY JENKINS DIDNT MAKE IT!

[jshaw995]

Stop blowing into your mic. You really don't need it directly in front of your face.

[Smarsa90]

your pathetic

[NemesisBLZ]

When you start a second playthough, can you change your class and background?

[SeanOrange]

Nope, that would defeat the point! I suppose it would be nice to have all that equipment and credits, but...

[bruenor82]

@SeanOrange yes you can

[pswii60cool]

do u know if theres some way where even if u played mass effect 1 you can still choose to start completely new in number 2? cuz i dont want my mass effect 1 career to affect anything in mass effect 2. do u also get to choose to be a new character instead of the one i played in mass effect 1?

[SeanOrange]

Probably the "New Game" option. Comes standard with most games, I hear! :p

You need not worry about it -- if it's anything like starting a second playthrough on ME1, then you will have to very deliberately choose to begin off of a previous save.  I don't think they'll be sneaky and load a save file for ME1 without asking you first.

[Damob47]

does anybody know if your paragon/ renegade carry over to ME 2?

[SeanOrange]

It won't carry over directly, according to developers, but it will take into account your scores. They just didn't say how, exactly.

[Damob47]

Did they say anything about levels? i don't want to stay lvl 60 through the whole game how does that carry over?

[SeanOrange]

You won't be level 60 when you start ME2. Your achievements in the game will matter more -- including the level 60 achievement. These achievements will give you a stat boost (although they haven't said how just yet).

[SeanOrange]

Apparently also, the way conversations went will be VERY important.

[Damob47]

Yea i saw that, were you can push people out of windows and stuff in the middle of any conversation.

[DEATHconXxX]

nothing dose except the choices you made they even said at the start you can change his/her appearance if you load a save

[MHV1ftw]

it should

they said a lot of what you did in ME 1 will effect what occurs in 2&3 >_>

[MHV1ftw]

i could be wrong though lol

[benhodgson92]

who's the asari who thinks shepard is dead in the clip here from one of the ME2 trailers?

[SeanOrange]

I'm not sure, but she doesn't live very much longer than that.

[benhodgson92]

so she's not someone important or from the original?

[SeanOrange]

I don't think so.

[ramik81]

I'm pretty sure it's the asari in the embassy bar that asks you to kill her sister in the first one.

[SeanOrange]

What, are you trying to say they all look alike? Hahaha.

That's not implausible. I'd have to hear sound clips side-by-side.

[XBOXNIZAM]

thanks for choosing my video!

[SeanOrange]

Hey, yours was the best!

[Valnjes]

great game and great video!

[Lorfarius]

Great video, reminds me that I need to replay the game again!

[HarleyLocal605]

I havent played ME in a while.
