What carries over from a mask save ?

[Artaniz]

I just got this because it finally went on sale . I know that supposedly they changed the voice actors and that this version is not as good as mask but it was worth the 7 bucks hopefully because i really loved the difficulty and the tactics in mask . Honestly i did skip a lot of the dialogue and i dont care that much about the story .

That being said i do care about my upgrades , so im wondering what transfers from an old save into the new game . the reason i ask is i made a mistake at the end of mask and had the 1st officer girl sacrafice herself and i dont want that outcome so im going to replay the end . But if my stuff does not transfer over then im not going to do that and ill just start a new game .

Thanks for the info and ye i did farm a few levels by leaving two carriers and killing ♥♥♥♥ for about 40 extra turns . So i have some sweet upgrades .

No upgrades carry, only some key choices that you made in the last game. About Ava (1st Officer): she doesn't die, just loses an eye.

Awesome man thanks for the info ill just start a new game then . RIP my upgrades but i can understand why they did it though even after grinding like that on captain the game was not easy to beat lol .

Ive though about trying one difficulty up but tat early escort mission is like no margin for error on captain i dont know how id get past it on anything higher without massive save scuming.

Thanks again for the response i know this forum is semi dead .

Several things do carry over, as hater stated the choice regarding Ava is one, you also have that cube (wishall) if you haven't used it that does affect some achievements and likely will be a flag in the next game assuming they get around to it. Cant remember the others as they were minor at best. You do start with some upgrades for this game however they are not ones you purchased instead being a set amount for each Ryder and your ship.

I do have the wishall , though i dont care much about the story choices i made as i said in the OP . Also i seriously doubt the upgrades you start with generically are worth a crap honestly . I beat the game on Captain it required very dilligent very specific sets of upgrades at specific times to beat the missions . I beat every mission and every side mission including the second escort mission that is optional and insanely hard . So saying that it gives you some upgrades is pretty moot as unless it gives me exaactly what i had then they likely are worthless .

Does it make sure you can fire twice on everyone ? does it only upgrade their proper attacks for each ship and ryder , do i keep my 6 merc ships , etc etc etc . the answer given what you guys posted is a fat NO.

Thats fine but i doubt i care enough about the wishall to be worth replaying the last 4 hours of the original game to change my end result though i suppose i could just go with one eye Ava and call it good .

legion_destroyed: Destroy of Legion, if true, Ava will lose one eye. This affects some cg.

OngessTruth: Tell the truth of Ongessite, if false, two more items (one can adjust move_cost of blackjack to 15 and paladin to 30, the other on adds a command which halves move EN cost of all player units) will be in store.

affection_cosette: If >=2, Cosette can be saved without consuming WishAll.

affection_icari: If >=5, Cloaking Field Generator will be available in store.

Affection factors of other characters will also be inherited, they may affect future sections of the serial, but not this part.
