I'm sorry but your post fails on so many levels to provide any real criticism why the game would be worse(or better) than the previous ones. That you don't understand the games mechanics and gameplay is not really the games fault

To cover the basics, you are sure they are not just assigned to the sky ranger, in mission control tab? Since they always says "on mission" even when you have multiple missions to select from. Or can't you launch any missions at all now? Of all my browsing I have not seen anyone report this issue before, and multiple mission pop up is quite common

Since I almost threw out my 1500€ computer in desperation in trying to desperately getting a game I have basically waited 18 years for to play, I thought I would enlighten people who run into similar problem like I have had. If you can't save the game and always get "failed to save" and options wont save either, it's most probably because your 'documents' folder is not in it's default location C:\whatever. I had myself moved all documents and such to another drive, which I later also had removed but still included as a default save location for documents. There are a fast and a longer solution for this included in this link to the official forums: http://forums.2kgames.com/showthread.php?149216-Can-t-change-options-or-save-load-games&p=2119646#post2119646 Anyway if you are in a panic to play, just create a new user on the computer and log in as the new user and start up steam and run XCOM - and now you can save!

As stated already, it would take veeeeeeeeeeeeeeery much work to do such a thing - and there is a simple reason for why they did it in Mass Effect, but not in Dragon Age. In Mass Effect you have 2 voices - Male or Female In Dragon Age you have human, dwarf, elf - male/female, so its so much much more work to do voices for that. I seriously doubt any modder could do this ( with good result ) unless a whole team gets together and records in a studio.

I don't know if anyone of you have read the 2 prequel books to the game - but the provide EXCELLENT sourcematerial for quests, quest builds and "expanions" that take place before the games current timeline For those that do not know anything about the books - they follow (king) Maric & Loghain in their younger years in their 'quest' to free Ferelden from the Orlesians. Actually, you could create a whole expansion no problem with the kind of lore & material you get from reading the books.
