GamePro article 'Critical Mass' (Issue 251/August '09)-There is a new & unknown enemy that is wiping out entire human colonies.
-If you fail in your suicide mission at the end of the game, your Shepard will be dead for good. The next Mass Effect would continue with a new character if your Shepard dies.
-Mass Effect 2 starts almost immediately after the first.
-All the choices you made in the first game, even those made during the optional side quest will have an effect on the story in game.
-If you never played or never finished the first game, Mass Effect 2 will start with a pre-determined story and will show you the "choices" you made in the first game. (players who never finished the first will only have the parts they never did filled in.)
-The combat is getting an 'upgrade', and is being compared to playing like Rainbow Six Vegas and Fallout 3. The combat will be more real time oriented and less RPG based form the first game's combat.
-We see for the first time what a male Quarian looks like.
-Images show a human made & designed robot.
-Exploring uncharted planets is getting a major face lift. You will be able to decide where the Mako will land, you will have more control over the Normandy (you won't be flying her or engaging in space battles though.), you will have to keep an eye on your fuel supply and you will be more involved with scanning planets for resources & artifacts.
-The Mako is getting a major face lift as well. While details are sparce, it it believed that the Mako might be able to fly, as well as being able to drive on ground & use jump boosters.
-The story isn't going to feel like you have to finish the main quest ASAP because you need to save the universe, therefore encouraging players to participate in more sidequest. That being said, all the sidequest tie back to the main storyline.
-Thane, the drell assassin will be one of the first characters you meet.
-All the decisions you make in game will effect & change how the game ends.
-The size of Mass Effect 2's universe is about the same size as Mass Effect 1's, but the number of missions, meaningful characters and missions are about 40% bigger.
-Mass Effect 2 will release around Spring 2010 for the 360 & PC.
-A image shows a geth wearing part of the N7 armor. Also, the geth has a large hole in the middle right section of its torso.
-You will be able to have up to ten members in your squad.
