Does choosing Kalinda or Burke at the beginning of the game have any impact on anything important? I've had mixed answered. It shouldnt because it seems kinda retarded to give you two choices without explaining either.

The only thing I've ever noticed different was your Paper contacts once you leave Mercy Island. You get a different contact depending on who you pick, yet they introduce you to the same contacts for their levels respectively.
Also your noob missions are a lot different. Kalinda introduces you to Mongoose. Burke Introduces you to the Doc guy.
Besides that, no I'm pretty sure there is no real reason to choose one or the other, other then maybe for your characters background info (Like if you hate Recluse and would never work for him, then you would pick Burke and forgo Patron Powers at 40 hehe).

Adoniis, i think that Brokers, or Paper contacts, are totally random. OR dependant on your AT (or maybe even your origin. But then again...
My main is a Brute, Tech, went to Oakes in his wee levels and got Mikey. But my newest Brute, also Tech, just left Oakes and had Drea there.
My stalkers have always had Mikey though. But ive only had 2 too, both Natural
My corruptors (all tech. if you havent figured already, then i like tech alot :P) had split Brokers. But 2 of them had Mikey and last had Drea.
So it seems that the Broker-case still remains unsolved... dun dun dun dun.
Anyway, on topic, Goregrinder, whether you pick Kalinda or Burke, then the biggest impact is probably your missions.
Also, your souvenirs. If you rather want the 'Snake Shell Fragment' from Burke, and the 'Doctor Geist's Test Tube' (one of Geists' missions is really fun, you get to blow up Infected, literally.), then pick Burke.
If you rather want the 'Kalinda's Kiss'(rawr xD) and 'Snakeskin Boots' from Mongoose, pick Kalinda. Kalinda and Mongy's mishes involve alot of snakes, so if you dont like them, stay away from those 2.
Burke and Geists missions are more Arachnos based, so if you have lag probs, stay away from those.

I agree with Hell all contacts in Mercy are the same. Just different missions. Just Burke you don't deal with as many snakes lol. Any ways as far as Port Contacts it is based on Orgin.

Yep. That's about the size of it. The only difference so far noted is the missions and second tier contacts you receive in Mercy. Everything else remains the same. The missions for each (and their 2nd Tier Contacts) can be viewed in our Contacts Section HERE!
At least, that is the only difference...for now.
