What I'm a bit curious about is where it's set. They say it's based on Illium... but the sky in some of those screenies doesn't look anything like Illium.


Does the sky on Earth look exactly the same everywhere?



Yes Posted Image <we've got a live one here code 5> Posted Image no one saw that Posted Image

Uhm, does anyone know if you can keep Liara as a squadmate after you complete her quest/DLC?


I hope so but chances are she won't come with you

Hey, who knows...the Shadow Broker is pretty much the only reason she didn't go with you...since we get to take him down, she'll be free to join you....right >_>

She should join your squad, but I have an erie feeling Bioware is going to cheap out on us.

Or she may not join for some other plot related thing for ME3.

I would assume so.. but if BioWare uses the hidden audio files.. [SPOILER] -> she stays to look through the Shadow Brokers files

Also.. I found audio files that prove that you don't need to do Liara's side mission to do this DLC

I am afraid I am feeling a bit lightheaded. It is probably just mental exhaustion...coupled with the shock of discovering the Liara DLC's true fate. I need some time to process all this.

If this DLC is indeed post-suicide mission, which seems to be the case, then there is a chance that Liara will rejoin the Normandy as a non-squadmate NPC that the player can freely interact with, and also continue the romance with her where applicable. If that is not the case, however, then I imagine that there will be a temporary reason that will be used in order to prevent Liara rejoining the Normandy for the time being, with her promising to do so ASAP. This way, prepares for her recruitment and squadmate role in ME3.

No. But Illium is not Earth. :blink:

There's nothing in the codex that hints the planet is volcanic or anything - i.e., anything to explain why a certain patch of Illium would miraculously have a chalky-coloured sky with what appear to be volcanic ashy clouds.

I mean, put it this way - can you think of any planet featured in ME so far that has that level of disparity between locations? Multi-climate planets like Earth are the exception, not the norm.

I imagine one of the achievements will be awarded for correctly locating the Shadow Broker's main base of operations.

Perhaps a Liara-dedicated Paramour achievement, too?


And maybe a recruitment 'chievo... 'The Calamari'" ;)

Why?  By level thirty you have enough points to max 5 out of 7 talents.  With 1 point left over.


Yes.
I've also been level 30 for a rather long time. I assume that something
is going to open up in the progression, at some point. Possibly not
yet, but character progression tends to be an RPG staple, Action RPG or
not. :)

What if it is opened up and then you have enough talents points to max all your abilities?


I know not, I just play the game. There's also empty slots on the power wheel, but I doubt those are going to get filled just yet. :)

Well,
this all sounds gravy. Shadow Broker intel centre, hmm? New research?
Cool, at least I'll have something to spend my 60 gazillion minerals on.

I'm
glad I held off my playthrough now. I'm particularly interested in what
will be the benefits of this research... biotic upgrades, maybe? New
talents? Cooldown reductions?

Sounds really, really cool. Keep us posted.

(Oh
yeah, what's with all the whining about how it's 'overpriced'? How does
anyone honestly know whether it's overpriced without actually knowing what it is? Geez...)


This
new research will probably be a pistol or an smg dmg+ upgrade or
something else that hasn't already got  the 6/6 available upgrades.

What
I'm more interested about is a potential new biotic power from Liara.
If she's gonna be a temporary squadmate she will probably have a unique
power just like every other squadmate in the game.
And this would also explain that "buff for adepts" that Ms. Norman tweeted  about a while back.


Or it could be an upgrade to your biotic amp that allows you to ignore armor. Boom. :devil:

Re: 'The squad is full, there are no new free slots'. If this starts the post suicide mission era, all you'd need is an updated squad screen. Problem solved. At this stage everything is POSSIBLE, in a lot of cases just not very likely. :)

So this should be played post endgame? Or before? Or either?

I do know BW wanted to keep Liara out of the ME2 squad so she could not die. However, if this DLC is post-suicide mission only, this won't be a problem. Plus, if there is more story-bridging post-suicide mission DLC, you could get some more use out of Liara as a squad mate in them.



The only thing is that Hudson stated Kasumi would be the last ME2 squad mate. This is why I think Liara won't join. Unless he meant no more squad mates will join for the pre-suicide mission team. IDK.

We have no idea for sure. 

A dev did say that this is the beginning of the ME2-ME3 bridging content, so I would assume this means post-game only material.  I could be wrong, though.

That or Liara wont join as a squadmate.. but as an NPC that you can talk to, and continue your relationship and stuff

But I still believe Liara wont join.

Well...yea but...Ilium is an Earth-like planet...and for the other planets that don't have different climates, I personally think that's just because Bioware didn't implement weather effects, and most of the planets we don't travel too far off from where we land, usually...

And there's nothing to say that it can't have multiple climates...it doesn't look like an ash cloud to me, just a bad storm or something.

 when and where did they say that?
all i heard was that things would slow down after this is released.

Would it be worthwhile to speculate on Liara's class, her biotic powers, and her combat proficiencies, perhaps?

This is our biggest DLC yet, period.

It also marks the real beginning where we expand the ME2 story in preparation for ME3.

As time gets closer to release, we'll have coverage on more of the awesome things you can expect out of LotSB
