Rumours of what might be added in Mass Effect 2

Here are some:

Quote:

-Mass Effect 2 will have up to 5-player CO-OP, depending on the host players decision of how many players will be able to assist him/her

-There will be a Multiplayer component called Survival, where players will crash on a planet and battle to survive against endless hordes of enemies, the score will be determined on how many enemies will be killed and how much time players will be able to survive, there is no end to this mode, it's a very similar mode to Gears of War 2's Horde.

The Citadel is now much larger, and whenever a player visits the Citadel all members of the players squad go with him/her, the squad will interact with other NPC's if you allow them to

-Battles wil be on a much larger scale, reported scale is the same as in Gears of War 2

-The player will be able to create mines near resources and send resources to Earth or by the decision of the player mine illegaly and collect all resources for him/her self

-The total number of interactive NPC's you can talk to is around 3000,
total number of NPC's in Mass Effect 2 is unknown

Here's the rest: http://www.addictgaming.com/news/Rum...t_2_Specifics/

Again, these are just some rumours

He was a great villian and yeah there will be 3 Mass Effect games as its a trilogy.

Ooo looking forward to them.. They should improve on "Where to go" sort of thing.. I reckon every planet should of been explore-able!

Every planet would be good but only if there is enough diversity. Many of the planets in ME were pretty much identical save for a different weather system once in a while and the odd change in colour - much like watching old epsiodes of Star Trek...

Yeah they really really needed to mix that up some more, there definitely were not enough differences between the planets. Also many of the side missions seemed recycled and too much of the same stuff.

To be fair to them, they were creating a game on an epic scale and when it's sci-fi it can actually be a tad more restrictive as opposed to something set in a fantasy world - but they managed it with Noveria, Feros and Virmire (sp?) so you'd have thought they could at least make one or two of the other planets a tad more exciting to look at...

To be honest, the only ones that to me seems even a tiny bit believable are the "larger battles" and "larger citadel" ones.

Larger battles would be a natural way to develop the game, and story-wise the humans have gained a big boost in influence on the Citadel, so I'd wager we'd be able to really "go places", so to speak.

Oh howdy I can't wait!

Agreed although the NPC one is quite believable due to Biowares extensive voice acting records.

Yeah well it was the first Mass Effect so what do you expect.. Still a good game in my eyes.

But yes they did look all the same.. Haha i liked killing that big Snake thingy on that planet, that was fun!
