mmmmmm Kaidan fanart explosion! Wooo-hooo!

Has anyone romanced Kaidan with multiple Sheps or the same one?

I want to do a new Shenko ME1 file...but I can't see Kaidan with anyone else but Teddy.....


Indeed, woohoo!

Have 3 Sheps that have romanced him so far: two remained loyal, one cheated with Thane.  Of the two that remained loyal, one renegaded him (Team Milky Way ftw!).  Have one mShep who always seems to hover over hang around Kaidan's workstation, hasn't romanced anybody though he says he's "keeping his options open".  He also says "smoke me a kipper" before departing the Normandy, what a guy.  Then there are the unfinished playthroughs.  ^_^

You could, if you want, have the other Shep cheat.

So does anyone here read Shenko fanfic?

I was thinking of doing one with my Shep and Kaidan... if anyone would like to read it :)

Would it break canon if... I technically replayed ME1 with the same file? Like Teddy at her Lv. 50ish Adept state?

I love reading Shenko (as long as it's FemShep, no offense to any MaleShep/Kaidan fans, it's just an acquired taste) and I'd love to read anything you write!
I've actually started writing fics again, too :D I forgot how fun it was.

So, is there a set number of pages per topic, and the topic will close after that many?

Break canon as in affecting ME2 options?  IIRC, you can import different completed playthroughs of the same character, at different levels.  Lvl 50 would be one import, lvl 60 another.

And remember: canon is whatever you want it to be for your playthrough.  :)  (for the most part anyway)

@Cypher There's lots of Shenko fanfic readers here (and writers, check page one of this thread for links). If you write it, you'll have readers! :D

I don't think there's a set number. Just until the mods see that it's getting a little long.
And the older Kaidan threads go into the thousands, so no worries!

@LadyofRivendell That's cool one pic looks like your Shepard. On multiplayer, I am fairly indifferent. I'll try it and if I hate it, I won't mess with it again. I haven't hated anything from BioWare, so they get the benefit of the doubt from me. *shrug*


Multiplayer is a go?  <_<

Not to get too off-topic, but how does that work?  Can a bunch of Kaidan fans play with each other?  Because, to be quite frank, I'd rather play with the fun people here than random players.  Would it be a guild or clan sort of setup?

It's co-op, and BioWare says they'll tell us more on Wednesday...

Yeah. Four player co-op is all that's been confirmed for sure. Read all about the ranting and raving here.

EDIT: Haha :ph34r:'d

Dang, well, there goes my hopes for multiplayer.

I was actually hoping that the VS would be the second player in co-op. I thought it would have worked nicely; the second human spectre would be able to work along with Shepard (the first human spectre, obviously, haha). I also thought MP would be nice if it were completely seperate from the SP; like, for example, you can only start the game as MP or SP and must complete the game as such. It would resolve the problem of several custimizable characters, or any character other than Shepard
And, no, I totally *wasn't* hoping that I would be able to control Kaidan for the multiplayer mode... :whistle:

Details about co-op posted by Chris Priestly. Compiled from Jesse Houston and Nick Clifford's notes. Posted *JUST RECENTLY*:

Chris Priestly wrote...


Hi Everyone

Today
BioWare and the Mass Effect 3 team are very pleased to announce 4 player
co-op multiplayer missions and the Mass Effect 3: Galaxy at War system
for Mass Effect 3 on the PC, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.


4 player co-op multiplayer

Join
your friends in the all-out galactic war to take Earth back. The
universe of Mass Effect expands with the addition of new co-op
multiplayer missions, playable over Xbox Live, PSN and PC internet.
Players can choose from a variety of classes and races, form an elite
Special Forces squad, and combine their weapons, powers and abilities to
devastating effect as they fight together to liberate key territories
from enemy control. Success in multi-player will have a direct impact
on the outcome of the single player campaign, giving players an
alternative method of achieving ultimate victory against the greatest
threat mankind – and the entire galaxy – has ever faced.

Mass Effect 3: Galaxy at War

As
a bonus to the campaign, BioWare is introducing the Mass Effect 3:
Galaxy at War system, a new way for players to manage and experience the
galactic war from multiple fronts, including a new 4-player co-op mode.
The key to saving the galaxy is the “Galactic Readiness” level,
measured by Commander Shepard’s ability to apply
every possible
asset – people, weapons, resources, armies, fleets – in the final battle
against the Reapers. Players can impact their game’s Galactic Readiness
level in multiple ways via the Mass Effect 3: Galaxy at War system,
including multiplayer. Other platforms and interfaces will be announced
in the coming months. It is important to note that the system is
entirely optional and just another way players can have control over
your game experience – it is still possible to achieve the optimal,
complete ending of the game in Mass Effect 3 through single-player
alone.


F.A.Q.

Why include 4 player Co-op multiplayer in Mass Effect 3?

  • Being
    able to explore and fight alongside your friends in the Mass Effect
    universe has always been something we thought would be fun and
    compelling, and many players have asked for it for a long time as well.
    Mass Effect 3 is the best place for us to introduce multiplayer through
    co-op because of the premise of the game – all out galactic war.
Why only 4 player co-op? What not a versus mode?
  • We
    have always maintained that we would only add multiplayer into the Mass
    Effect series if it made sense and did not compromise the power of the
    single player campaign. Fighting together against a common threat was
    the multiplayer experience that made the most sense for Mass Effect 3.
    The way we have designed co-op as a wayto take control of key conflict
    zones in the galaxy is a natural extension of the premise of Mass Effect
    3.
Why did you decide not to include it as a part of the main campaign?
  • Our priority and focus with Mass Effect 3 has and always will be to deliver a complete and satisfying single player experience.
Does the addition of co-op multiplayer missions impact the scope or quality of the single-player experience?
  • No.
    A dedicated team from our recently formed BioWare Montreal studio has
    been focused on creating the multiplayer game features while the main
    game continued to be developed by the team in BioWare Edmonton. Both
    teams are integrated under the same leadership group that produced Mass
    Effect 1 and 2, led by Casey Hudson. BioWare remains dedicated to
    delivering one of the most amazing single-player campaigns gamers have
    ever experienced.
How did developing multiplayer impact the single player game?
  • BioWare
    is dedicated and focused on delivering an engaging, fun, and
    action-packed experience for Mass Effect 3, one that lives up the
    BioWare standard. To reach that level of quality, last year BioWare
    opened a studio in Montreal that is home to designers, programmers,
    engineers, and other developers. Both studios work together as
    partners, lead by the core Mass Effect team, unified in a single vision.
    Under the direction of Casey Hudson and other team veterans, both
    studios make contributions to both the single player and multiplayer
    modes in Mass Effect 3. Rest assured that no compromises were made to
    either of these modes in the development of Mass Effect 3.
Which characters can I play in co-op multiplayer? Can I play as Commander Shepard?
  • Commander
    Shepard’s part in the war will take place in the single-player
    campaign, as will that of other beloved characters in the franchise such
    as Garrus, Ashley, and Liara…these characters do not appear in the
    multiplayer missions. In multiplayer, players will create custom
    characters to fight on different and unique fronts in the war. This will
    include the ability to play as favorites like Turians, Krogans, Asari
    and more… each with their own unique set of abilities.
What if I don’t like multiplayer – will my experience be negatively impacted?
  • Mass
    Effect 3 is a complete, standalone game that will deliver a satisfying
    story experience, even if you choose not to try multiplayer. The Mass
    Effect 3: Galaxy at War system and all of the individual components are
    meant to complement that amazing game and can be enjoyed on their own or
    as part of the Galaxy at War experience.
What if I am not good at / do not like multiplayer? Will my readiness rating go down?
  • ME3
    is a story about a war against overwhelming force where the most you
    can hope for us survival. The more you do to fight that war, the more
    you can change that story into a more optimistic one. You can reach the
    highest levels of success in the single player experience alone, but
    Galaxy at War gives you alternative ways to get there. It’s about
    choice, and allowing players to find their own ways to stay immersed in
    the Mass Effect universe.
Will you be adding any additional maps or modes through DLC?
  • We can’t comment on specifics right now, but can confirm that we are planning on having DLC for Mass Effect 3.
Do save games from ME1 or ME2 impact the co-op multiplayer missions?
  • No.
Do characters level up in co-op multiplayer? What is the progression system?
  • Character
    progression, weapon upgrading and leveling up is present in co-op.
    We’ll release more information on this topic in the months leading up to
    launch.
Is there more info about the other platforms of Mass Effect 3: Galaxy at War?
  • We
    are not going into details about the other components of the Galaxy at
    War at this time except to say we are designing each to make sense for
    that platform. Each component will be able to affect a player’s
    “Galactic Readiness” level in a different way. Again, participation in
    any or all ME3:GaW elements is entirely optional.

I have two Shepards that romanced Kaidan, my canon!Shepard, and my noncanon!Shepard (who hasn't made it to ME2 yet... maybe I'll use her for "cheating").

I have another Shepard who stayed single in ME1 so I could romance Thane in ME2, but it was soooo hard. :crying:



About multiplayer: Meh. I probably won't use it, and I don't care if it's there as long as it doesn't take away from the single player storyline.

If I can't be a Volus or Hanar in the multiplayer, I won't have anything to do with it.

But really, in theory it sounds interesting and different but I am a bit confused as how it'll actually work.

Lunatic, that info just made my day.

I mean, I'd rather not have multiplayer, but from the sounds of it, it won't affect single player at all, and I won't be missing much by choosing to ignore it.

So, I'm considering starting a new ME1 save as a Biotic. Is it really the best class to play as? I've always played as Soldier, since it fits my playstyle (on the frontlines, doing the majority of the damage, tank type). But everyone seems to hate Soldier and love Biotics, so which specialization is best? Vanguard or Sentinel (or whatever the other one is called that I apparently can't spell)?

There's adept, too?

I think I knew that. Or I should have known that. I don't know :mellow: So basically, which class is "the best"?

Is XBL that bad? I only ever use PSN, which, for the most part, is pretty good. The only time I ever used XBL, I got 6 friend requests once people learned I was female. I rejected all of them :lol: Pathetic.

There really isn't a "best" class. Just whatever you feel suits you.
I'm usually an infiltrator, sentinel and then a vanguard.

Soldier - Combat
Engineer- Tech
Adept - Biotics
Vanguard - Combat/Biotics
Sentinel - Biotics/Tech
Infiltrator - Combat/Tech

EDIT

For the longest time, even though my gamertag makes is slightly more obvious I'm female, I was never bothered. But one day and beyond it just seemed like nobody would leave me alone. Friend requests, messages with a little kid singing to me(yeah, I think he was 11. either way, little kid voice.) and teenage boys that think their penis size depends on how many times they cuss and talk about sex.
Eventually I just go so sick and tired of nasally teenage boy voices I muted everyone and blocked anyone but my friends from being able to contact me.

I've just started a Vanguard play through of my renegade ... usually I play as an Infiltrator so I'm interested to see what it's like as a biotic as well.

Hm. Since I'm combat oriented in battle, I might try out Vanguard. Never really been interested in tech, and I do love playing as a Soldier. It just annoys me that Soldiers are always pegged as the "easy" class. Same as Warriors in DA, I guess.

My first play throughs were Vanguard and then Adept so when I imported my Infiltrator in today I got all excited to see my blue shield bar because before it was always purple due to having barriers instead. /easily amused

As for Cypher0020's question that I'm really late in answering, I have 4 femShep's. 3 have/will (two I still have to finish ME1 with) romance Kaidan and 2 of them, including my canon, are loyal. I also just started a mShep just in case Kaidan is bi in ME3 because I really want to see how they develop that relationship. For the Shep's that romance Kaidan I made their personality's different and I pick different dialogue options so in my head each couple has a different relationship dynamics.
