MEA save files transfer?

★★★ Newbie

hey everyone

 

I am wondering if there is going to be any game progress transferring, such as transferring mass effect 1-2-3 data into Andromeda

 

kindly thank you

Nope, it's a clean slate. The events of Shepard's story in the original trilogy aren't a factor for Andromeda, so nothing will be carried forward. 

 

Thanks for the question, you don't need to worry about scraping together old data.

But Michael Gamble says that is not a bad idea to hold on to our Mass Effect saves... So what's the deal?

If I remember correctly Michael Gamble said that at a very early state of development.  Aaryon Flynn and Mac Walters confirmed that there will be no save game import.

Mac Walters said to hold onto your save data after you complete Mass Effect Andromeda, implying there will be an import from Andromeda to Mass Effect 5.

 

I think they previously said to hold onto your ME3 data just to be safe, but that was early during development and I think they abandoned that idea.

Re: MEA save files transfer?

When Mike Gamble said in an interview four years ago about ME3 save games:

"Obviously I can't say anything," he said, "but it wouldn't be a bad idea..."

He was covering himself in case it would be a good idea.

 

Four years later, tweets make it very clear that there is no requirement or reliance on any ME3 saves, as the prologue of the new game takes place before ME3.

Resurrecting this to ask again.  There seems to be a function for this...something about the Mass Effect Archives?  Any information on this?

The Mass Effect Archives is a website to upload your custom ryder desgines to and import from other players. It has nothing to do with ME3 save game import.

Currently the website is still in beta, at least for me it is. I guess it will launch together with the game next week.

check this video (MASS EFFECT ANDROMEDA Gameplay Walkthrough Part 1)

- YOU CAN  IMPORT ME3 PROFILES

not sure the real use of the import ME3 Save.,

i think is just "related" to input some report in the narration for the story of the earth part in the game
no weapon, no armor or skill are added to your started character

 

check the video to see if,,,
