- We have not forgotten about the squad members from ME1. Whatever role surviving ME1 squad members play in ME2, they will be treated with respect. We want people to look at where those followers are now and say, "Yep, that's what they'd do."
- In some cases, it is possible that squad members from ME1 could end up in your ME2 squad. Again, we're trying to approach this with respect for the characters. Nobody is being clumsily shoehorned in or casually written out. All surviving squad members are at least present as NPCs with important story roles.
- BioWare is not currently giving details about which squad members may possibly join up with Shepard. We hope that part of the joy of ME2 for people who played the first game is seeing what has happened to people you cared about over the last two years, and we don't want to spoil that.
