How many of you pay 50,000 platinum to get rid of your facial scars, and do you think they fit with this type of game?

[AdmiralCheez]

Bought the machine, never used it, think scars are dumb.

[Vaenier]

Red glowing scars are dumb and did not belong in the game. Was Paragon enough to never need the machine. Bought the machine for Garrus, but he was to stubborn to even change out of his damaged armor, let alone heal his facial scars... just screw up all around.

As my Shepard is paragade I didn't have to do anything, actually - the scars, visible in the very beginning, were slowly 'healing' and completely disappeared somewhere after Horizon IIRC. I rather liked how it turned out - looked as though they really healed with time and as though it was a natural process.

[Mystranna Kelteel]

I would have paid 100,000 of each element to get my ME1 scars back.



I think the ME2 scars are pretty silly.

[bjdbwea]

I agree. The scars in ME 2 are annoying and look artificial, as if they're just supposed to look "cool". But even if someone likes them, there's no way (without modding the game) to maintain them when playing paragon. And for this they took away our freedom of choice?

[Zaknaberrnon]

I thought that the renegade scars (aka the cybernetic implants are visible) look pretty darn cool xD most of my sheps are paragon or paragade but I love dem scars on me renegade shep!!

[volus4life]

if u think u need scars on ur face to look badass, ur doing it wrong.

[RAF1940]

Didn't like them, but I play Paragon. I don't really care though.

[SandTrout]

I liked the glowing eyes, but that's about it. I agree that the implementation was poor. It should have been an addition to the face-creator during character creation rather than a game mechanic to reflect your P/R ratio.

The thing I hated most about it was that it started to look like a festering wound when you got real high on the renegade bar. Just gross & disgusting to look at. Couldn't imagine anyone of the crew to be attracted to that kind of stuff.

[GodWood]

Don't hate them per se but I'm definitely not a fan.

ME1 scars were much better.

Indeed. It looks like they are getting infected or something. Ugh.

I take them away. The cost is a joke. It should be negliable not on par with a regular ship upgrade. That way people could remove them at will and only those that like these weird scars would keep them. Making removing them a big investment that needs to be considered serves no purpose given that the scars are just graphic mumbo jumbo that does not effect the game. Probing for a thanix cannon, and saving a squad mates life, is one thing. I can live with that. Probing to get a normal face is just frustrating.

[jeweledleah]

I like scanning planets so it was never an issue for me to get enough minerals to cover the costs, in fact I always end up with a huge chunk of them left over (I really wish you could trade them for credits or something :/)



paragon or renegade, one thing all my characters share (well, ok, its not them, its me, but nonetheless) is enough vanity to be annoyed with those scars. medibay upgrade is the absolute first upgrade I buy as soon as it opens up.

[Sidac]

Im the only one who likes the scars. They could have done a better job like giving us an option like the ME1 scars tho. Still, I like my scars!.

I wish when you went paragon they didnt just outright disappear, just look more realistic.





I like the thought of my Shep carrying physical scars for the artistic representation of his emotional and mental ones. But having massive glowy Joker scars and Terminator eyes is abit much.

[commandoclone87]

It's explainable why your ME1 scars are gone - Shepherd was "Shake & Baked" on his way down. As Jacob puts it..."You were just meat and tubes."  Thus you needed advanced skin grafts which would replace the original scar tissue. 

The remaining scars are just surgical where you have a few treatments left to repair. Unfortunately, you get tossed into combat before this is done. As for them widening due to negative emotions, if you ever got a large cut on part of your body that does a lot of flexing, you know it can take some time to heal. Shepard is putting a lot of stress on those injuries and the implants really don't help. It may not be pretty and will give any Shepard a "Terminator" vibe, but it can be explained logically as part of the story.

As for the cost of the upgrade, if you are Paragon, you don't need to worry. If you go Renegade, then just shell out for the upgrade. There are more than enough resources for every upgrade.

I mess my ME1 scar it fit with my characters background

[Rivercurse]

A more interesting gameplay choice could have been given here.



Imagine the med bay upgrade not only healed the facial scars, but removed ALL cerberus implanted cybernetics, making Shep 100% organic again rather than the closet half cyborg he/she actually is right now. No one really knows the extent to which Cerberus implanted Shepard, least of all Shepard.



I reckon most/all paragon players would have taken this option should it have existed.



Still, maybe Bioware has designs on sheps synthetic parts being plot critical in ME3 and thats why you cant remove them. Im sure its gonna be easier for a Reaper to indoctrinate a human with synthetic implants than a human without them..

Nah, I'm full paragon with a half renegade bar for whenever I want to go Batman. But even I wouldnt want to do this.



Badass Cyborg Shepard is badass.

[Interactive Civilian]

I just buy it and take care of it as soon as I acquire Mordin. I tend to grab all the resources I'll ever need right from the beginning (I forget the exact numbers, but there's a thread in the forum somewhere... something like ~185,000 Pd, ~300,000 Pt, ~165,000 Ir, and ~40,000 Eezo) just to get them out of the way, since I hate planet scanning.

I too miss my ME1 scar, though I understand why it isn't there. Still, being an actual battle scar (well, if you want to imagine it that way for your character), it has more character.

[kglaser]

I got the upgrade for completeness, but would never think of actually using the thing. I play mostly Paragon, anyway.

[silentstephi]

I missed the ME1 scars, but I while I some times used the machine to heal the scars, I didn't mind them most of the time.



Only time they got silly was with a full Ren bar, but some paragon would catch up and they were back to acceptable.



I liked the idea behind the scars... just... thought the :OMFG YOU LOOK EVIL" was a bit silly.

[kglaser]

Don't the scars mysteriously return in the shower in Garrus's romance scene, even if you got rid of them? lol
