It is just a 'promotional shiny'.

But it is a damn nicely done promotional shiny.

I have to say, I dig the mobile-cannon-spider-tank enemy that was shown there
Yep. 

It's been listed since June 8th, but first time I think I've seen it.

I don´t know how expensive this edition is, but it looks really nice, especially the heavy one.

....you don't say🤨

This is the edition that I am going to order, probably just before the Demo on January 25th (partially so I can have access to this demo and not miss out like I did last week). Aside from the cool gear, the other reason I always get any of the 'Collector Edition' types (ie Legion of Dawn Ed. or Inquisition Digital Deluxe) is becase of the digital soundtrack. I really like the music that Bioware has done over the years, with the slight exception of the original ME soundtrack (that was too synthesized for me, though it did fit the game. I much prefer an orchestral score like in D A: I) but that's just my personal preference.

Thus far from what I have heard, I really like the ANTHEM score- I think it strikes a nice blend of Orchestra and Synth/Electronic

I wonder if the Legion of the Dawn story stuff in the beginning of the trailer is actual story content, or just to give promotional backstory to the shiny skins...

Well this does nothing to dampen my hype!

The Gods that abandoned the world...and left the Anthem...surely...it must have been....our Lord and Savior! THE EMPEROR! The founder of the LoD was a trusted commander of His Majesties armies! Their experiments with their new "Anthem" engine went awry, and the Emperor ordered her to stay behind and clean up the mess!




Anthem is 40k CONFIRMED!!!

if you dont get it on day one you know there going to release it as part of an expansion, its not like bioware dont sell you a game and give you a DLC within the first month as well (heck half the games they give you one on or around launch day) that or there going down the route of dead space and will release it as one of many gear packs that grant you some special effects....

still was kinda hoping they would put something akin to blood dragon armour in there with an n7 logo on it, that was my ultimate cheat suit in mass effect

They were asked after showing the N7 thing if they had plans to create more skins to pay tribute to "other Bioware IPs". They answered "Yes, we are working on it".

I am aware, however I wasn't sure if that was limited knowledge or not...

even so the blood dragon armour set was like a perfect cheat code in the game due to bonuses before it got nerfed in one of the updates (no idea why they did that either) hopefully there will be some epic looks like making the ranger an aw suit and the tank a templar or something complete with bonus damage resistance, shield capacity, shield regeneration, reload speed and of course advanced heatsinks.... no reason why you cant have specials for long term customers as a reward for continued patronage that doesnt really effect game play that much.....

hell give them a special melee adaptor that makes them head but + arm slap for double normal melee weapon damage, that shit would be epic and technically at least theres no reason your exosuit cant be meshed into a character from another game, although customizable paint jobs are kinda cool there pointless when your all the same basic shape unless theres bonus effects for them that dont revolve around screen lag for your co-op team mates trying to render them....

time will tell exactly what happens though and we can but hope for something superb coming down the pipeline so long as its not all pay to win reinforcement packs (and that just becasue I want cool shit but cant afford to pay for them in the packs and grinding takes way to long)
