If you could add one new feature to Mass Effect 3, what would it be?

[Dusquad]

I have been thinking about Mass Effect 3 and what Bioware is trying to achieve with it and I am getting a little anxious. When they say "streamline" the RPG elements I hear "RPG elements can gtfo" and if they do exist they won't matter. So I started to think of things they should add or things that shouldn't be streamlined...

Anyways, the one thing I would add to Mass Effect 3 is the ability to have three party members in your squad. It gives more tactical options and party combinations (not to mention it allows the player to experience the game with at least half his or her crew members) and it leaves more possibility for larger scale battles. That is what I would add, what would you?

I am gonna go ahead and break my own rules but there should be a medic type class or a character that functions as such because god knows medi-gel was kinda shitty in both games.

Well considering they took it out in Mass Effect 2, I'd add in a Decent fucking story.

I would say more of a decent ending but you got a point, the story didn't really live up to the original Mass Effect.

A feature that plays through Mass Effect 1 for me. I fucked up my first playthrough by skipping all the sidequests, and now I have to slog through it again before I play ME2.

Full frontal nudity. And lots of it! Come on if it's already going to be an 18 you might as well go the whole hog.

More seriously, class customisation. It really annoyed me that I had to traipse around 2 guns I didn't use and had no special powers just because I wanted to use an assault rifle/sniper combo. The SMGs just didn't cut it.

They've said they're adding back more RPG elements, not streamlining further. The elements they're adding back will just happen to be of a similar streamlined nature to the features of ME2.

As for the question, I think I'd want much, more party dialogue, between squadmembers and with Shepard.

Jet Packs... Just Jet Packs.

 

[Nicolairigel]

The ability to customize, create and name your own class kinda like in morrowind... and yeah definitely more in-crew drama and dialogue.

 

[Hisshiss]

3 player co-op for sexified squad combat :3.

 

[Soviet Heavy]

An inventory. Not the pile'o'guns from the first game, or the slot machine from the second, but an honest to goodness inventory.

More interactions between squad members on the Normandy. I really liked in ME2 when you were forced to pick between Jack or Miranda and between Tali or Legion. I want certain crew members to be friendly with some other crew members but not others. I also want it so you don't miss out on stuff by not fully comiting to paragon or renagade. What if I want a bit of both?

 

[Aris Khandr]

Just one? Open Tali's romance to everyone.

 

[Chelsea O'shea]

more choices in romance for women who like ladies,please.

This is what I most want as well. The first one had a great story, the second's fell short, hope they have a great one for the third.

Tactics. I'm tired of every game revolving around the same mechanic. Cover-based shooting. If done well, it can be a breath of fresh air, but we need to see something other than run to wall, Velcro spine to wall, pop and and shoot, repeat. Using combinations of squad powers in ME2 to expand on their viability was a step in the right direction. Now, if they could expand, like telling your squad to offer a distraction or draw fire away from you.

 

[dibblywibbles]

fire breathing bear husks that you can control because you did a certain thing at the end of ME2. what could possibly be more frightening?

 

[Daniel Segal]

I would like to see more weapon availability and competence between classes. It really gets my goat that only the soldier class from ME2 was capable of using an assault rifle, while half of the classes were limited to only the SMG and heavy pistol.

 

[Moonlight Butterfly]

Joker romance plz :3

but a less girly request?

Um weapons modification, better scopes, different ammo outside infilitrator etc and I would really like to have the radar back please it was kind of useful...

This! Sometimes I miss the days of KOTOR (1 and 2). Mission asking if Bastila ever trips someone with the Force... such a fond memory.
