DLC: Normandy Crash Site
Kingdom come deliverance save file editor. This content was available at launch. Having downloaded the Normandy Crash Site DLC (free with access to the Cerberus Network), you will receive an email and an 'Explore Normandy Crash Site' tag will appear on your Galaxy Map.
To get to the crash site, that is the location where the Normandy ends up at the start of Mass Effect 2, head through the Mass Relay, into the Omega Nebula and to the Amada system. Highlight the Planet Alchera to receive notification of an anomaly, then scan for it and land once you have pinpointed and probed the location. There are no real objectives to this, except to put the memorial monument in a valid place, but there are plenty of chances for reminiscence and resource collection are on offer.
There are no enemies to shoot on this one, so Shepard does not need to take a team.
Once you land, there are three things to do. You need to collect twenty dog-tags of people who died with the original Normandy to return to their families. There are resources, such as Iridium and Element Zero to collect. You can also trigger flashbacks of the first Normandy by exploring.
To the right of where you begin is the first dog-tag. They are easy to spot even from distance because of the tell-tale glint to them. Below is a list of all the dog-tag locations, along with what else you can find in the vicinity:
Note that directions such as left, right and front given here are based on the direction you face when you begin, pointing from the shuttle towards the Mako.
1) To the right of where you begin
2) Straight-ahead from the shuttle where you begin, just to the right of the rocks where the 'Normandy' plate is. 3) To the left of the Normandy name-plate, by some cargo containers. 4) In the bottom-left corner of the map, by the Normandy hull (this also triggers a reminiscence scene) 5) Among the rocks to the left of the Mako (the Normandy's land vehicle) 6) In the breakable crate to the left of the Mako (there is some Refined Element Zero to the left of the Mako too) 7) In the corridor of hull round the corner to the left of the Mako (this also triggers a reminiscence scene). Note that this is also one of many locations where you may plant the memorial monument, just in front of the entrance to this piece of corridor. 8) Just behind this section of hull amongst the rocks. 9) In the fragile crate behind this section of hull. 10) At the end of the narrow slice of ice that goes off to the left of the Mako 11) Just in front of the Mako (the Mako is also a reminiscence scene) 12) In the corner of the slope in front and to the left of the Mako. 13) Behind the Normandy escape pod, to the right of the Mako (there is also some Refined Element Zero nearby). 14) In the breakable crate up a slope to the right of the escape pod. 15) Underneath the arch of debris to the right of the Mako 16) In the breakable crate near the arch to the right of the Mako 17) In the cockpit section of the hull submerged in the hills to the right of the shuttle and Mako (this also triggers a reminiscence scene). 18) In front of the Galaxy Map, all the way up the slope in front of the Mako (there is also a datapad containing the logs of Navigator Pressly here) (there are also two reminiscence flashbacks to be triggered) 19) In the hull section submerged in the hills behind and to the left of the shuttle and main Normandy hull, and behind the corridor memorial site (this is another reminiscence flashback). 20) Just outside this same hull section.
There is an N7 helmet on the upper ground in front of the Mako, along the path stretching out to the right. This is placed on Shepard's desk on the new Normandy. There is also some extra Element Zero under the arch of debris to the left of the shuttle.
With that, you can return to the shuttle to go back to the Normandy.

We dish on the free mission and preorder bonuses.

Mass Effect 2 officially launched just a few hours ago, and BioWare and EA already have a slew of content available for folks who are part of the Cerberus Network and who preordered the game.

Yes, if you preordered at select retailers (or made good on a late night Microsoft error), you should have some free armor and/or weapons to play with. If you bought the game new (or bought it used and paid for the content on the Xbox Marketplace), you'll have access to one new mission on the Cerberus Network. Aanother is coming later this week along with a different character. Rather than make you wait and wonder about what all that wonderful content is, we're going to break it down for you right here on IGN.
Mass Effect Normandy Sr 2
Climb aboard this Normandy escape pod.
Normandy Crash Site If there's one part of Mass Effect 2 that has polarized the IGN office, it's this mission. Some (like myself) find this free mission to be a somber, touching mission that's a fitting tribute to those lost when the Normandy went down in the beginning of Mass Effect 2. Others, specifically IGN Editor in Chief Hilary Goldstein, describe it as 'the worst thing ever.'
How does it work? After you've downloaded this piece of content, you'll get a message from Admiral Hackett. It seems some routine scans of the universe have uncovered the crash site of the SSV Normandy and her crew. Hackett wants you to head over, find any trace of the 20 lost in the crash, and place a memorial. You choose the locale from your galaxy map, fly on over, and land on the planet.
From the moment I stepped off of my shuttle, I knew that this wasn't the traditional Mass Effect 2 mission. Here, there's no one to fight and no one to hide from. As snowflakes drifted to the ground and surround the smashed remains of the Normandy, I was left with just the sound of Shepard's breath in her helmet. (Yeah, I play as a girl; deal with it.) The environment is desolate and still – it's somber, like a memorial should be.
Move around the crash site, and you're going to see little balls of light. When you come up on them, you'll discover that they are the dog tags of the fallen Alliance members. You'll need to collect 20 of these for experience points as well as to complete the mission. When you come to twisted specific pieces of wreckage – Joker's chair, the galaxy map, the Mako, etc. – you'll get a camera angle that frames the structure as you remembered it, shows a photo of it from the original Mass Effect, and then reverts back to the mangled mess. Collect all the dog tags, place a cheesy looking monument, and it's time to go.
For me, this mission served its purpose. Yeah, it was slow, but it should be. This is when you mourn your ship and her crew. This is a sacred place. The throwbacks to the good old days, the bleak soundtrack, and everything else drove home that this was a place to be respected. It was short, and it enhanced the story for me.
