They've said they know about the issue. They've said that they're looking into it.


Wrong.  They've only commented on the issue of faces originally created in ME1, or importing from ME2 NG+.  They haven't yet acknowledged this problem (which the posted workaround does nothing to fix):

I was upset at first too but I could't wait so I recreated my shep and I'm pretty happy with it! I suggest some of you waiting should do the same hehe (easier said then done)

I don't understand why they would subtract options in the first place. It makes no sense. It would make sense to add options. You're not taking anything away from the loyal players, and you're giving the face programmers something to work on.

We're working on a Mario sequel. Goombas? Check. Koopas? Check. Mario? Nah. Let's put a Sonic model in his place.

I honestly don't think we'll get the missing pieces added back, and it's incredibly depressing. The way the ME2 facecodes work, inserting more options into each slider would break the codes, wouldn't they?  


My initial thought was that there's more than enough code for more variables, with each character in the code being A-Z/0-9. Are there more than 36 variables per character?!

Where's Phoenix?

The Cynical Brit's The Mailbox, 14th March 2012 talks about IGN's ME3 mass hysteria' video, 'entitlement' and consumer responsibility: starts around the 10 minute mark, to the end. Worth a listen!


That was one fabulous rant while gliding throu multiplayer lol!


Cool, huh? And way smoother than me tapping out forum posts on assertiveness and consumer responsibility :)
I've got the Tribes Beta on download - I don't play FPS, but it just looks so much fun! Are those jetpacks?

I think a more apt analogy would be if Apple released a new iPhone and took out the camera and WiFi capabilities. Oh, and made it so none of your existing apps worked on it.

After waiting for over a week, felt the need to chime in with my grievances.

My copy of Mass Effect 3 (Collector's Edition) cost me about $100 USD after taxes (NY) and shipping (I wanted to play on release day).

I have yet to extract any value - not one tiny bit - out of this purchase. In fact, the time I've spent screwing around with imports has probably led to a net loss of my time and money.

To the BioWare team - I have hope that you'll make this right. I can't, and won't, be playing (or buying additional DLC) until I can play the core game as it was advertised to me before my purchase. For what it's worth, I won't be consuming any new content from BioWare until I can complete Mass Effect 3.

Hang in there.

BioWare should hire people like Pheonix52gx since they're probably working harder on this issue than BioWare themselves.

You say that, but this is why I should not be hired:

Lol…Last night I was doing the Gibbed thing following your instructions, after I’ve gotten a code using YMAL. Apparently I screwed some copy/paste values b/c my Shep came out with all his teeth outside his mouthPosted Image


I believe that a screenshot is warranted.  If posssible, an exported morph file would be appreciated.

Sorry I deleted that save. Posted Image

Wow, you've created a very beautiful Shep... in Mass Effect 1 and 2 of course...


Thanks.. :crying:
But it's true, my Shep really let herself go.
I'm enforcing a ban on pyjak steaks and hanar sushi effective immediatly. That stuff ruined her face.

I agree. Actually from those angles alone I think ME3 version is even better.
Did you follow the face code instructions only or also the gibbed thingie?
Anyway, congratz! :)

There's enough variables, for sure. I just don't know what effect adding additional options to each slider would have on existing codes. If they put my Shepard's eyes back in, for example, it would change the number of values in the slider. That might cause problems.

I honestly don't know. Just sorta thinking out loud.

I attempted to recreate my Shepard and actually managed to finish the game (after several restarts because I am nitpicky). Still, it doesn't feel the same and something was always off.

I'm holding off my second run until this patch is released.

If you're curious:

ME2:i1170.photobucket.com/albums/r523/LilaNoir/MassEffect22011-01-3121-56-18-10.jpg
ME3 (WHO IS THIS PERSON??): i1170.photobucket.com/albums/r523/LilaNoir/MassEffect32012-03-0622-14-16-73.png

Is it just me or does the skin texture in ME3 look rather ...doughy? And seriously, what is with the eyelashes??

Not if they added them to the end. Somebody would think of a guide that would help, like there is 10 eye colors now, then they add 15. Now its 25

Yep, which makes me think that he's either avoiding this thread. Which is bad customer service.

or reading it and not responding to ease our worries, even with a "Nothing's changed, please wait some more" response. That's also bad customer service.

I'm not sure which is worse though.

Well I think there's a lot of different playstyles, and they're all okay.

For me the first playthrough is special: it's the most immersive, the story most powerful, and I'm not trying to steer the mechanics because I don't know the outcomes yet. I just immerse and play. For me, that's the 'canon run': even if I struggle with a surprise outcome, well that's the RP part. If I do play through again, it will be with a very different character or it will be months or years later. For me, the first playthrough has to be with the character I began in ME and continued in ME2, otherwise there's really no point.


Yup, I completely agree. That's the other part of why I'm holding off. I don't want to go through a 2nd time with my original face because I'll know what's coming and what choices I may need to take and I could alter it to my advantage, having known the outcome or cost of the decision. With the first time, I won't know - it's more natural.
When I was playing ME2 for the first time, I lost about 4 main people on the suicide run, so about a year later I went back and saved them all, so there's an alternate reality where I saved them and couldn't save them.

When I play ME3 with my OriginalShep, I'm going to stick with the man that couldn't save his cute little redhead assistant and a few others, because that was my decision and I have to live with it - and it's astounding how you feel that weight.


For me, it's that OR decision at the end of ME, not knowing that AND is a possibility. I stand by the wartime triage, but really didn't expect or like the way it tipped the balance of power and reactions to humanity in ME2 ~ and that's something my femShep has to live with.

I did almost meddle in the love interest story (femShep romanced Kaidan), after the scene on Horizon and then that whiny mememe letter. The inability to engage in a sane way really broke immersion for me: Why didn't you tell me you were alive?! The bleepy game wouldn't bleepy let me!! I got as far as checking the internet to see if there were different versions of the letter, and found Raphael Sbarge's voicing of the letter instead, which completely transformed it, and gave me a bridge back into the story. Kaidan had been grieving while i'd been dead-then-conflicted about my new allies. Now I'm grieving the loss of him while he's conflicted about my new allies. A pleasing symmetry, and it took me way deep, so a somewhat sombre ME2 for my femShep but satisfying for me personally. The jury is still out on what's realistic in ME3: I'm sure there are some Disney possibilities, but the reality of grieving for 2 years then having that person walk through the door - that's shatteringly complex. Besides, I hear Earth needs to be saved...

My money is on ignoring us and laughing at us while he checks his bank statements.

I've never heard of a film that promises one actor in commercials but delivers a different one in movie. 

Why are you defending fraud and belittling fans who have a strong connection to the franchise?

I don't know.. I mean, I haven't purchased the game yet so naturally I don't feel the same level of outrage as some of the people here. But even if I did I don't think I would ever consider that a person would let so many others suffer like this on purpose.

He probably has no new information to give and his corporate handbook is telling him to stay quiet in these conditions. "Only following orders.."
