@13 Hell yeah, unless the soldier accepts the mission as a neccesary act of vigilance in order to trade his life for the greater good. Like Shepard did.

If you order someone to go on a suicide mission is it technically murder?

it would be nice if before you commit suicide that you are informed the choice is permanent and game ending. I’ll be pissed if my Shepard dies .. he’s been with me since the first. I want to know what I have to do to prevent this.

Yes, if you start a new game, your Shepard is a clone.

Did you not read the article you save goes no where you can’t import with that save. SO when you press NEw game you will play as the default which stated previously is the worst version of sheperd; No sidequests done, Rachni queen dead, Wrex dead, If choose male Kaidan died, if female Ashley died. With ME 2 history it would probably be bare minimum with everyone dying except Shep on the suicide mission.

I think they already confirmed that you’d return as a clone if your Shepard died at the end.

Massively rush it. You need to have ignored the upgrades and loyalty stuff.

Didn’t even know you could let Shepard die at the end of ME2. Has anyone had this and would he care to elaborate on the story when you do that?

If ME2 is anything to go by you’re really going to want to import a valid save, otherwise you’ll be lumbered with the worst default choices you could possibly imagine.

Actually it’ll be really interesting to see how they could get around that for the third bit. A clone? Parallel-universe? Time travellers nip back to save the day?

Edit: come to think of it, they could use one of those and NOT force you to start again.

You mean I can’t play as a Zombie Shepard in ME3? Time for a boycott!!!

They won’t allow you to buy Mass Effect 3 if this happens. There’ll be a man at the shop checking saves.

I was worried… then I read the text and thought “duh”.
