You can't import a face created in Mass Effect 1 into 3! Bioware has responded! (See OP)

So it is just the face that has import problems, and the other things (Background, decisions, etc) are unaffected?

Yeah, all the stuff you've done in ME1 and 2 is still there.  So far 5 hours into the game, my Shep (with fake face, lol) has already had several cool conversations with other characters where they referenced his decisions in the other games.

Just the appearance(for me at least).

LOL I love the amount of similes and metaphors people are using to describe their frustration! Like no words in the english language can portray how we feel, so we have to paint people a picture :D

The thing with my first Shep is he's so damned deformed he'll be damned near impossible to recreate... not that I have to take the time to because the tools are too dissimilar...

When I first got hold of the ME CC I thought... well, these are rubbish. But that's the closest to looking like me I'm going to get. And so I played. Totally disappointed with my rubber dingy lips and cheekbones that look like tumors. The poor guy looked like he was drawn by 1940's era Disney, sterotyping a cotton picker. But I got drawn into the story... his choices were mine and I soon forgot.

Then I booted up Mass Effect 2 (I had mass effect... shockingly only played an hour until i was given Mass Effect 2 for christmas... I know, I'm ashamed!) straight after and I saw my Shep brought back to life... I was in awe... I had never felt that before with a game. The closest I had come to this was playing as Knuckles in Sonic 2 and flying over a whole level... but just seeing my FACE... as deformed as it was, beat all of that. I was back. You teased me by putting on a helmet. It was 10am, I'd been playing since 7pm the evening before to play this. I was exhausted. But I just HAD to see my face in the new game. And you teased me god dammit. I had to sit there and play with a mask on. Biowear you clever devils. Then finally, I saw me. And despite the marathon gaming session, I still played until my Shep had met the Illusive man so I could finally feel that my experience of "carrying over" had ended.

And all this with a deformed face which looks nothing like me.

So to some, it may just be a face, but the emotive response it carries to some runs pretty damn deep.

So I assume you are reading these Bioware... please... please work on the patch :)

Who agrees that BioWare should give us free DLC after they fix this, for making us wait and giving us the middle finger

No one.

At least, they shouldn't.

We're all being drama queens about this, myself included. It's an issue, sure. And we're overblowing it to ensure it is dealt with (that's the way of the internet). But no one deserves anything for free because of this.

I think they deserve some slack, but I think a good muligan is in order for the pre-order shenanigans. like give us what GameStop locked down before what preorder bonuses were announced.... I just want my Argus Rifle.

I don't care what anyone says. This is complete, I mean COMPLETE BS. I've been waiting for this game for a long time and this is the damn troll response fans get. Seriously, how much development has gone through this game and something as important as this gets screwed up? This is not something minor either, YOUR Shepard is something special and now we can't get that. What makes this worse is that Xbox Live won't get a fix until next week at the least. Nice job Bioware.

Honestly, we aren't being drama queens though..we invested SO much time into our character and to have that taken away from us in the finale (on purpose, because they HAD to have known about it) is such a big "F-U" to the fans.

Just adding to the deluge of complaints. Can't import my Shepard face either, and I'm not using the cloud for any of my Mass Effect saves.

I can't believe this is really real. Total, total suck. I have no doubt they will try to fix it if they can, but the fact that this got past testing should be a little embarrassing. No one playtested the Import feature? I mean... damn.

I think that's what's really pissing all of us off. If the demo worked fine and we JUST discovered this problem on release, I'd say "hey, bugs happen. Thanks for looking into it guys."  But apparently this problem has been around for WEEKS and they haven't even looked into it yet.  The fact that they knew something was wrong with the game and still sold you the product really breaks the business-customer trust.

Well I got a pretty good result out of using the temporary fix on the demo: http://social.biowar...7811/3#9249327 
One of my mansheps:

ME1 Image IPB

ME2 Image IPB

ME3 Image IPB

Dudesheps seem to come out better than femsheps. The faces are longer in ME3 for some reason..kinda weird but whatever.

Ashley looks like a cartoon character now, Anderson seems made of paper and the face I created in the editor (as a temporary face) looks odd in-game

There are multiple ways to reconstruct your Shepard with varying degrees of accuracy. Even just eyeballing it, I was able to get a near-perfect copy in the demo - and I haven't touched the creator since ME1 was released. Yeah, it's very annoying. Yeah, it needs to be fixed as soon as possible. But no, it isn't game-breaking nor do we deserve compensation for an annoyance that is only as major as we decide ourselves.

And this is coming from someone with multiple playthroughs... all using the same Shepard.

I was right with everyone in their zeal until your post.

The most we can "demand" is a fix to the issue. Nothing more. That's just acting entitled to things that we are not. And I draw the line there.

Have you seen Udina yet? He doesn't look anything like he did in the other games. I didn't even know it was him until someone addressed him by name. I'm a little worried for a fix to come if they can't even get their own characters' faces right!

happened to me too. Have a male shep adept, looks like Barack Obama, that has saved the galaxy on 5 different occasions. With each playthrough clocking in at 80+ hours that's 400 hours. As Henry Higgins says "I've grown accustomed to his face." Really would like it if this could be fixed.

I agree. I only ask that Bioware makes this right. Nothing more. I believe that I should give them a week to fix this problem. That is more then fair. Until then, the game is essentially unplayable. We are entitled to a game that isn't broken in my opinion.

If the import function, something that is iconic of the ME games, is non-functional I'm worried about the quality of the rest of the product, it seemingly being rushed to market and all.

I'm not a fanboy but even I'm tired of the drivel Bioware launches that needs multiple patches to render it in the condition that I had expected.

A fix better come immediately or EA and bioware won't get another dime.

I simply cant play until this is fixed. I tried, but just ruins the game for me. Guess all I can do is wait.

I refuse to give them a week.  They had the time to develop day 1 DLC but not ensure that a critical component of the main game was functional?

I will not downplay this. Customization, especially of SHEP is the 1st and last thing i think of when it comes to Mass Effect. Unacceptable... :(
