Just to clarify for me; can you restructure the face of said imported file?

Details now up on a popular news site. I'm sure someone will post it if EC allows it.
What site? I'm at work and don't mind waiting until midnight anyway (still got to get through Shadow Broker when I get home!), curious about the process tho.

It made me recreate my face as it was from the original Mass Effect, so you will have to wait for someone with a save that never played the original game to confirm that for you.

Ive been palying ME2 recently, and the mass effect 3 demo.
Ive played ME2 with the high resolution texture pack, and without it (right now, the game is alt tabbed).
I can tell you, ME2's default textures were equally as horrible or even a little worse that what you see in the ME3 demo. You remember being the textures being better, thats all.

Well this is novel, remember the CGI "take back Earth" trailer ? Well Bioware has done a femshep one :-

So I just want to make sure I understand how it works. Now that they have the new weight limit system, every classes can use any weapons but you are limited to how many weapons you can carry (except for soldiers who can carry everything).
Do we have any kind of "hard numbers" on that? For example, just how many weapons can an Adept carry around?
I played through 2 as a soldier but the way I see things right now, I think I might go Adept for ME3.
If I could play an Adept that carries for example an Assault Rifle + Pistol (or SMG) then this would be really bad ass. Sure I loose the sniper, shotgun and heavy weapon but I get a ton of awesome biotic abilities. And also, looks like the first rank of your mastery gives you some kind of adrenaline rush.
So, is such a build possible?

Conrad?
I played ME2 two weeks ago with the default textures, and it never felt that bad compared to demo screenshots of the Earth mission.
Maybe the lightning depending on where i am has a lot to do with it. Or maybe i need to take a look again at those screenshots lol.
That was cool. Was half expecting them to swap out Ashley for Kaiden as well.

Awesome! Apprently I fail at using google, but hey, I have the GAF!
Another quick question. It appears that the digital bonus stuff has unlocked and I can view the art and the comic. Is the comic safe to read or will it contain spoilers of any sort? Or is it a prequel to events that will unfold in ME3?
I flicked through the art book a bit but decided to close it out until I play the game as I noticed an updated character model and I really want to be shocked in-game.
The comic is called 'Invasion'.

What lvl was your import character? What is the max level you can get in me3?

That was pretty awesome actually.
If that's the case, it should be easy for them to implement a 'rebuild your save' option where you get a list of important things that happened during ME2, and you can choose your desired outcome. Especially handy when you've played ME2 on PS3 and are now moving to PC like me.
Darn right, get that silly male shep stuff outta here. This is the right trailer!
Yes you can, and the weapon load out screen will tell you how much of a casting boost you get.

Has there ever been a reason put out there for why Reapers need ground troops?

Can't kill everything just with big lasers. Gotta search every nook and cranny.

Couldn't they just take the air out of the atmosphere or something.
Cool...is it a flat weight number by category (so every Assault Rifle weigh the same) or it's different for each model?
How would they do that?
Infiltration? I mean, when they don't JUST want to reduce all building to boulders and make sure that a specific job is done (like killing Sheppard, ravaging building makes it hard to have a Kill confirmation).

They're Reapers. They invented Mass Relays. I'm sure they could figure it out.
And I preordered my only last week.
shinobi602, at least your order is likely to ship today...
* Sai keeps checking his Origin's Order Details.
That $14 I spent on expedited shipping won't mean much if I get it a week or more later. lol

Weapons have different weights. I recall reading something about the Revenant weighing as much as the Widow.
ME2 told us
that they need to collect people(or whatever race they're harvesting) to turn into goo and to build new reapers, etc...

Love FemShep, even though the default one creeps me out.

Given their general size I'd say it's more a comfort thing, besides they don't just destroy everything they also collect resources and kidnap organics for indoctrination and
reproduction as seen in ME2

The importing works exactly as said before. Final ME2 level = Start ME3 level. I also got 20 extra points to distribute, though I don't know if that's standard or if it's a bonus for doing something specific. Also, ME1 faces indeed do not import. I had already prepared ahead of time for this using the demo to recreate my old face and saving the code. My Male Shep came out nearly perfect, but my Female Shep is going to be a bitch to get looking right.
I just got past the intro, and it was pretty much the same as the demo including Anderson's walking & running animations. I'll probably shut my mouth for the rest of the day about the game.
