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

@joystiq93 You can import your original Shep but the graphics have obvs changed a little
Perhaps the developers have known from the start that importing is buggy?
Also, I tried this :
Best way to figure out is to start a New Game + with the shep you're trying to recreate. It's annoying cause you have to sit through the intro, but when you get to the CC you'll have three options
Default
Imported Face and
Custom
So you can keep switching from Import to Custom to check your progress and see how close you're getting to the original face.
And I regret to say my facecode did not even come close to looking like my guy in the demo of 3. Then again, I think it was mentioned that the demo is missing a ton of options.
Yeah, it's not a perfect solution. Most of my male sheps have come through okay when I plug their faces codes into the Demo after doing, but whatever they did with FemShep models just does not translate well. Most of my fem sheps have required heavy recreation in the Demo CC.
However if A) Import works fine, then it won't matter because...well because import works fine and your original face will be preserved
For now I've got a file on my comp with all the face codes I need. Hopefully I won't need it.

If it doesn't work fine, I'm hoping the additional options in the live game will make it easier to recreate my sheps.
I hope so too... .and i can see them keeping some hair and eye options out of the demo, but why would they limit somehting like facial structure?

You'll need to redo the hair, eye color and (if femshep) makeup, but it will be your Shep in ME3. That's assuming the straight import looks completely off.

I asked @masseffect on Twitter about this a few days back and this is what they had to say: https://twitter.com/...640816202059776
That only addressed ME2.
Twitter is too restictive to actually ask about the problem with ME1 face morphs that the people who own the game are currently having.

I don't either... however I would consider this to be near game breaking (I don't want to speak for everyone) considering how this IP has prided itself on being YOUR story, and essentially by losing your charecter's face you are losing thier identity. The silence of the developers and moderators is most distressing...PresidentCowboy wrote...
Can't be bothered to read through the whole thread, but is the problem that faces don't work when importing ME1 saves? But ME2 saves that were ME1 imports are fine?
If you can't be bothered to read the whole thread, or even the original post evidently, why bother participating in the discussion at all? No, the issue has nothing to do with importing a ME1 save, since it's not possible to import a ME1 save into ME3.
The issue is that players who played ME1, who imported into ME2, are having trouble importing thier faces correctly into the full retail version of ME3
Its not near gamebreaking. It's 100 % gamebreaking. And the silence from the devs is making me really really worried. Like another poster said, no company would admit a severe flaw to their title this close to launch. That hints that there is a real problem with the imports. If there wasn't any problem, why not close down this thread and say that there is no problem openly? Lying in this case isn't an option since it would be an unforgivable dirty trick.
I mean, i cant be asked to manually recreate my face... it's not the same, it wouldn't be the same shep, just some clone or whatever. And its really hard to recreate 1:1 match on faces.
I can accept some flaws here and there, like holstering, some animations, textures, even the FoV issue on PC etc. All these flaws are somewhat acceptable since as a PC user as we are used to mediocre ports. But not getting a correct look on Shepard is not acceptable, and actually totally breaks the game because it ruins, like you said, the root of this game; That you are playing with *your* Shepard. If this is true and it isn't adressed with a day 1 patch; Well, lets put it like this; I don't pay $86 for a broken product with these flaws.

"With each new game we touch up facial construction assets. May see slight differences. Updated hair & added few new styles :-)"
My question:
If I take a Shepard from 1, import him into 2 and then import him into 3, he'll still have the same face? No need to recreate it?

Lets get a priest, imam or rabbi to interpret that answer. Or maybe a professor in linguistics. Cause what kind of answer is that?

"So it's safe to say that we won't have to 'rebuild' our Shep from ME1, when importing into ME3? Huge thread on BSN about that atm."
Is that specific enough?

Try that. Maybe it'll finally get the point across. (I don't have twitter).
The problem is so far we're only showing concern with something we have no experience with. We haven't explained that it's an actualy issue that people are currently having, so maybe my question above will get a real answer.

Ya, probably. But the key question is what he means with "slightly". Is a slight difference in the eyes a set of different eyes? Is a slight difference on the mouth a new mouth? I s a slight difference on the nose another nose?
All these small details is what makes a face differ from another. If you "slightly" change those things, its really not the same Shep or person. I mean, people do "slight" tweaks to their noses on regular basis - everybody knows that a slight difference on the nose can make a huge difference etc. blbablalba.

Indeed.......... i mean, define slight differences. Hairstyles looking different than my original, i can deal with that. Infact it kind of makes sense since everyone else has different hair now too.
but if we are talking slight, as in, the structure of my face is different, well than thats a whole new ball of wax.
How do you post pictures in this thread?
