According to Game Informer, the problem is with Xbox 360 users only. The issue is the Cloud. ME3 isn't compatible with the Cloud and the simple fix is that you need to have your ME2 saves on your Hard Drive. Other gaming news sites have said the same thing.

That's different issue.

I'd remove "A new hope" from the thread topic, at this point the answer is pretty clearly:

"No you can't import an ME1 face"

I'm quite appalled by the dev's attempts to mislead with their tweet answers only to ignore when the questions are made unavoidably specific. They knew this and didn't tell us and when we found out and asked they all but flat out lied to us. I feel just like I do when I've caught someone trying to rip me off.

I'm speechless..........

So the whole patch thing was a hoax?

Maybe it's just refering to weird results of imported ME2 Shepards? Seen plenty of those.

This whole thing is silly. Games have bugs. I'm sure they'll patch it if it is a real bug. So long as all of the rest of my stuff carries over I have zero problem remaking my Shepard's face. In fact I'll probably have to anyway because my sheps hairstyle looks terrible in ME3.

That being said -- if it's a ME1 to ME3 import issue for the PS then someone is pulling your leg. There was no ME1 for the play station. If it's a across the board issue -- is it a ME1 to ME2 to ME3 issue? If it's only occurring if you import straight from ME1 then I'm not worried. They probably just didn't factor in that people might have actually skipped the middle game.

You have to remember that ME didn't have a face code -- that was added in 2 and carried over into 3. So if it's an import from ME1 to ME3 only issue, it's probably due to the fact that there's no facial code in ME1.

Breath guys, it's two days ;p It'll be OKAY.

Say it with me now:

It will be Okay. It's a bug and games have bugs. Especially new games. It happens. They'll fix it.

*takes a deep breath*.. I'll try and keep this nice and clean.

Good for you that you don't care about serious bugs like this one. I wish I felt the same way. Unfortunately, I expect a game like this to live up to what the devs have been promising us ever since ME1. Bioware has repeatedly been telling us, that the Mass Effect trilogy is OUR story, and that we would be able to take OUR Shepard with us through all three chapters. Now, if this whole thing is true, they lied to us. And I don't like that.

I honestly don't see why you would bother telling people that there's no PS3 version of ME1. This is the official Mass Effect board. It's common knowledge. And if you had actually read the OP, you'd know that isn't the issue..

And you're saying that ME3 can't import these Sheps because of the missing face codes? Then how come my Shep imported perfectly into ME2? Again, read the OP before posting. 

Sure, the Day-1 patch may fix this. The only sources we have for that though, is two german fan sites, and Bioware STILL hasn't said anything! So at this point, no everything will not be okay. All we know is that the issue is there. 

Sorry if this came off as overly harsh, but some of you people really needs to take a look at the OP, before telling people that everything is okay.

Thank you for responding, and no you didn't come off harsh at all

That said I did read the original post and It's very hard to follow. It didn't say "A full game to game to game import is broken" it says "Me1 to me3 is broken" which could very well mean a direct import from the first to the third game, which can very easily be explained that Bioware didn't factor in that some people just didn't play the middle game (It does happen for various reasons I'm sure.)

The topic says that the ME1 to ME3 import feature of facial codes aren't working properly on a PS3 copy -- so one can deduce from that sentence that the person reporting it is pulling our legs - as there is no ME1 for the Playstation. So obviously it isn't going to work. ;p

If it's also not working on other copies, then it's a bug, probably directly related to the facial code differences between the first and third games. There are more options in ME3 in the way of hairstyles and colors, and perhaps that is messing with the facial codes enough to give an error when trying to import the face. And if it is happening, then I'm sure they're aware by now and if we don't have a day one fix, then there will be one incomming.

Of all the things that could go wrong in a trilogy game like ME1-3, having to rebuild my Shepard's face is probably the least horrible. It could have been any number of life-sucking broken things that maybe didn't crop up right away or cropped up due to another bug they fixed. Instead I may or may not have to rebuild how my Shepard looks -- which is fine, all things considered. My Shepard's hairstyle is bad in ME3 anyway so I was more then likely going to be changing it anyway.

We're two days out and every bit of news is going to make us panic. That's not a bad thing, it just means we love these games and want our end of them to be perfect. But video games have bugs and so long as they're not game breaking we'll survive and they'll be fixed.

It will be Okay. And if it's not, Bioware will know. Because we'll make sure to tell them

Any ME3 patch would have to have been submitted to Microsoft before you even started this topic.  If the patch fixed our ME1 faces I think we'd be told that.  The silence and misdirection is just too much to ignore for me.
I have no faith that the day 1 CC patch (if it even exists) will fix this.  The cloud problem is a seperate issue that could effect ME2 faces as well.  If there is a CC patch it most likely addresses this problem.

There's a solution that's not the patch.

Ah, my apologies.

You are pretty busy at work here PLC.

[davidshooter]

Look, think about this - as I'm sure many of you already have.

For most of yesterday this thread was titled:

Confirmed you can't import an ME1 face (or words to that effect)

This is Mass Effect 3s official site, the thread has been on page one almost all the time. It's over 40 pages long and has 14000 views. Does anyone really think that Bioware doesn't know this thread is here? Or that Bioware is too busy to post a one sentence answer that would stop the negativity in it's tracks? I don't believe the German site knows anything that isn't known here.

It's borked.
They know it's borked.

Is the only explanation that makes any sense.

Edit - Just noticed the doodle thread has an official response....nice.

Bumpity. This thread makes me sad... T_T

[CompositeGNR]

reading this thread from page 38 to 44, I had my hopes raised and then dashed again, can someone tweet to some of the reviewers like G4 and whatnot to see if they used custom face? I think Adam Sesseler has made a custom Shepard since the first Mass Effect.

[joriandrake]

okay, time to prepare for PC modding!
In Skyrim and other games one can replace whole heads for those of Schwarzenegger or others, can someone please find a solution to use the head/face texture/mesh from ME1-2 for ME3 too? As it seems the devs themselves didn't bother with this sadly.

bump.
it does seem a little .... cowardly? that there is no dev post in this topic. im bothered by that. if you made a mistake, own it. it's so much better than this silent treatment/aversion stuff.
:/

[squee365]

I somehow have a feeling we won't have a definitive answer until tuesday. REGARDLESS, I somehow also think this will end up not being a problem in the end, because it is a BIG problem and devs would have to respond with a fix (remember skyrim ps3?).

[xSTONEYx187x]

Is BioWare avoiding answering a simple question? C'mon, Chris, we know you're reading this, just give us an answer.

Wait what? I have all my ganes saved to cloud.  Should I move them all back to my console?

[Hathur]

Sigh. This sort of thing doesn't give me much faith into the quality control team of Me3.. did none of their testers think to try importing an original character that was brought from me1 to me2 and then into me3? One would think the QA team would think of that when testing the game.

Or perhaps they did but bioware decided fixing the problem wasn't worthwhile.. not sure which is worse.

Alright. Well I've taken desperate measures: Posting this thread on the ME facebook page over and over -.-

Less than 2 days until we get our answers.

Skyrim is modding paradise with modding supported by devs. Mass Effect is quite the opposite.

[Luigitornado]

Oh gawd this is f-ing annoying. I went to another board I frequent and someone told me that there has been a confirmed patch fix, and now I read this thread again x_x

[spirosz]

I really don't understand why they won't just come out and say "Look, we've tried getting this feature to work to our best abilities, but because of "x" and "x", we can't get it to fully utilize the CC, so unfortunately, you'll either have to re-create your Shepard to your best abilities or deal with it"

This is more frustrating because we're waiting here for an important answer and Bioware is waiting till the last minute to give us some feedback on a huge issue.

Exactly. COME ON ALREADY! T.T

I don't understand whats so hard about coming out and telling the truth.

Good thing I remade my Shepard' face already because I disliked my old one. My ME3 remake of him looks like a far better improvement. Though I do find this to be stupid for those who have kept the same Shepard face for years now.
