Description
This is concept art for an elite Cerberus team led by Kai Leng to take down Shepard's crew, never made into the game unfortunately :(
My browser was glitching for a bit so I couldn't post this earlier for some reason, oh well, here you go, enjoy.
Heavy, Spy, Sniper and Demoman.
Meet the Cerberus Squad
I always thought Kai Leng should be older in Mass Effect 3, because he was a badass Cerberus assassin back when Anderson was in his twenties.
I'm actually kind of glad they dropped this concept.
Seems a little -too- much like Deus Ex: Human Revolution's bit.
Hmm... a multiple choice question ending, was released in 2012, and nearly had four specific bosses the player has to fight.
Did Bioware seriously steal ideas from Human Revolution? I'm not too serious about this but it is uncanny...
It's hard not for anyone to "steal" other peoples ideas or plagiarize in general, coming up with new ideas is hard, and usually the right way to something is the easiest way. But in the case of the gaming and entertainment industry, it's just really annoying when you think too hard about it -.-
The timing is the reason I say anything. I know that it is hard to not come up with the idea as someone else, I'm just saying that this is eerily familiar. I mean, lets compare:
There's one foreign looking guy with cybernetic body addons
There's a slender female character with long-range weaponry
There's a Texan looking guy with a big weapon and brawn
And there's a tank.
Starting to see what I mean?
It's only concept art, Kai Leng was probably based off a preexisting character as well that the developers found cool, I don't see anything wrong with that (though I'd rather them not go spouting this "artistic integrity" nonsense if they purposefully did). Doesn't mean, if they had been implemented into the game, that they would have looked just like that.
I know what you mean, but I don't see where this argument is gong, I'm just reminiscing on a concept for the game I found kind of neat, if you don't like it, don't comment.
No I dont, can you specify?
You're thinking about it too much.
When making games and writing stories, one can never think too much about anything. At least I've never found a plateau for it.
Good artists borrow, great artists steal. There are no original ideas.
I think its a cool idea actually

I actually thought this looked more like something you'd see in Metal Gear Solid. Where each boss would shout out "SHEEEPPPPPPARRRRRDDDD" before exploding when they die, ala Zaeed.
That Heavy kinda reminds me of Deng Ai, as curious as that may sound.
