Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines 2

Forget it. This late in the game development i doubt they could add it even if they wanted it.

I'm excited about Bloodlines 2. Loved the first game and never thought, there would be a sequel.

I've read, that you play a thinblood, I hoped that this time, yould play the Sabbat and the independent clans.

What does Thinblood imply. Right now the whole thing appears to be more or less a shooter?

davesin explained it pretty well. The only thing I'd add for someone unfamiliar with the setting is that "generation" measures how far removed a vampire is from biblical Caine, the first vampire, cursed by god to live in darkness and drink the blood of his own kin. Caine is considered the one and only first generation vampire, all vampires sired directly by him are the second generation and so on. The further removed from Caine a vampire is, the more the power his blood is diluted and the less potential such a vampire has. Generation 13 is the furthest away from Caine a vampire can be and still have access to the full disciplines of his or her clan, and any generation higher than that is considered a thin blood, a clanless weakling essentially.

I have a PDF of the "beta-version" of V5.0 of the pen and paper rules which includes an introductory scenario. In this revised setting, the Inquisition seems much stronger than before and has access to elite operatives trained in fighting vampires. In the demo adventure, the players had to constantly dodge Inquisition-led GSG-9-patrols in Berlin, who were aware of how to fight and kill "Schwarzkörper" ("black bodies", from the color of vampires on their thermal sights) while massacres caused by vampires were covered up as terrorist attacks.

Sure, you'd still have vampiric powers that put you squarely above humans as a thin blood. Ideally they will have the concept of Diablerie in the game (though I have no idea how that works in V5.0) and let you lower your generation by taking the blood of more powerful vampires, essentially losing the thin blood status in the process. I don't want to imagine the backlash they'd suffer if they named a game "Bloodlines 2" and then made it mostly a shooter or brawler...
