It seems there is Cora squad icon on the left. Has anyone caught her? Is she in helmet again?  Image courtesy of shinrai Could that be her? |

SCRIPT 2
Scene Two: Two mercenaries talk about some of the difficulties of living on the frontier and being pioneers
in a new world. You are playing the role of the Tough Mercenary.
Tough Mercenary: I got a great deal on the gear we salvaged from the crash. Here’s your share. Worried Mercenary: You said we’d split the take evenly! Tough Mercenary: It’s even. Do the math Worried Mercenary: I’ve got a family. You don’t. This isn’t fair. We agreed— Tough Mercenary: To split the profits 50/50. How you feed your family is your problem Worried Mercenary: I just keep thinking, what if I hadn’t left the Capital? Maybe I wouldn’t have to worry about where my kids’ next meals are coming from. Tough Mercenary: We’re doing better than some Worried Mercenary: But I worry that one day I’ll cross Sanders and find my kids murdered. Tough Mercenary: Sanders doesn’t kill kids. And you don’t know that wouldn’t have happened in the Capital. Worried Mercenary: There were laws back there. Out here, it’s thugs running the place Tough Mercenary: A thug wearing the uniform is still a thug. Sanders was head of security back in the Capital, and look what she’s become. Tough Mercenary: Trust me. Things like rule of law, like decency? Out the window when things go bad. Worried Mercenary: So you wouldn’t go back? If you got the chance? Tough Mercenary: Hell, no. It’s not the best here, but I get to decide my life. It’s what we wanted, right? A new start?
ANALYSIS
1) The Capital. That sounds like a new Citadel-like in Andromeda? Or a code-name for the Citadel?
2) That Sanders they speak was the head of The Capital Security. Sanders seems like a human name, is that her real name? Or just made-up for the script? A police officer went rogue after a tragedy in the Capital seems something like all bad Turians TM would go (if The Capital is The CItadel codename). She could be an Andromedan tho (if the Capital is the citadel version) OR if the game covers decades, maybe she is human in Andromeda police.3) Looking for a new start from Tough Mercenary's part. But Worried Mercenary came with kids like a refugee? I. FREAKING. CALL IT.  |

Here's a bunch of pics I dug from the video. Mostly things that caught my attention. Not gonna dissect the entire trailer, will leave that tho whoever is into that type of stuff. And no need to open a new thread, this one fits just fine imo. Spoilers in every department since I don't want to crash your browser. Some pics in general:  Scanning thing.  129 Km/h? that's fast! That goes above legal limits in my country. The Mako struggled at 35 ish.  These are similar ships, but don't confuse yourself because they're not the same.  Lot's of small little things in this one. It's the settling mechanic, apparently. Kill a bunch of dudes, steal their shit and build on their corpses.  Crafting screen. Ammo or rather special ammo (disruptor and such) can be crafted apparently.  And ammo is a consumable too in campaign, apparently. I'm liking that.  Another shot from the craft screen. Item tiers are also in this game, I like that personally. Onto Known weapons:  Yes, I know "duh, the Avenger, no shit" but this thumbnail shows the stock scope on it. I always liked the ME2 Avenger with the stock scope. Didn't really like the "economic" version of ME3.  Predator. We haven't seen it in any trailer until now I think.  Revenant. Didn't quite like it in the video. Seemed too "light" no recoil, no punch, pretty much rubbish like in ME3, we'll see though. Hope is great because it was my fav gun in ME2.  The Piranha made it to the Arks. Interesting, because according to the lore the gun was created during the Reaper war to kill husks specifically if I'm not mistaken. Lore aside I'm glad it's here.  In that spirit, we also have the LOLReegar. INB4 cheese. I remember some of you NOT wanting this one to return hahaha.  Everyones fav sniper, the Black Widow. My fav was the CSR btw...  .  Bonus pic. Space ninjas in Andromeda confirmed... And finally, unknown weapons:  Reminds me of the ME2 Collector Particle Rifle for the thumbnail. Seems to operate in the same manner: particle/laser sustained fire.  And this reminds me of the Collector Sniper. It's clearly not the same gun though.  This thing seems bulky AF.  Seems alien ish. No pissing clue what could be. Space brush teeth for all I know.  Machine pistol of sorts? That's about it for me. There was other things confirmed like turrets and some other powers like cryo blast, drone, flamer. As I've said, I'm not gonna dissect every last pixel. |

It seems there is Cora squad icon on the left. Has anyone caught her? Is she in helmet again? Image courtesy of shinrai Could that be her? I actually think this is Sara. She says something like "You're right, that doesn't seem like home." And given that Ryder and Liam fell out of an exploded shuttle beforehand that would suit the whole scene very well. |

Well if it is Sara (which makes perfect sense) then at least we'll get some nice scenes with Liam, at which point I tend to forget I was ever interested in some Cora  |

And given that Ryder and Liam fell out of an exploded shuttle beforehand that would suit the whole scene very well. Adding to this, there's a bit toward the end of the trailer that shows Ryder with only one companion, moving toward wreckage on the world with the crazy glowing fern vines. So yeah, definitely seems to me like it's Ryder and Liam. Edit: Spoilers for pics to save scrolling. |

So yeah, definitely seems to me like it's Ryder and Liam. Edit: Spoilers for pics to save scrolling. Yes, same symbol is shown in various battle scenes where he takes part as squad member in combat - next to Peebee and she has clearly an asari head as symbol. So Liam hides goggles and Vegeta hair under his helmet - interesting. Can't really say how I should picture him, I must say. "African native Vegeta with kind of a british accent". The companion pictures all show (on a basis) how the companions look (Cora has a mix of Lelilana/bit Morrigan like short hair cut for example - if she is called like that). i68.tinypic.com/2dre981.png |

So here I am watching for the 7th time the gameplay trailer and I'm watching at this:  Did anyone actually stop for a moment and understood that Sara here is carrying two shotguns? And we have this wheel with 8 slots divided in up and down with colors and those "ammo and gun" symbols. 4 guns of any type up and 4 ammo types or some other type of consumable maybe below (maybe grenades and stuff? cryo, fire, etc). I don't know if this was actually discussed in some other thread, but this confirms our suspicions back in the E3 trailer when some of us saw 2 pistols equipped on the player. This is actually kinda interesting. Like, we could have equipped 2 ARs, one optimized with mods for long range and another optimized for high RoF and close quarters. Or create the ultimate cheese/saltmaster build with 4 Reegars (actually, I doubt they allow us to carry two identical weapons). We're not restricted in one gun of each class anymore. |

Maybe you can equip 4 slots with any/all weapons, ie. 4 pistols or 4 sniper rifles. There might be some sort of weight limitation like in previous games, though.
Btw, did you spot the asari in gameplay trailer? She was down right corner when Ryder walked the stairs down in the beginning of the trailer. Don't a screen shot of that though.

Ye, that's what I meant. Which Asari? there were plenty on the trailer. Well, not "plenty" , but a few including the squaddie. |

Another finding here, the Crusader shotgun:  Gee, are these placeholders or they truly make them in the game? I'm not disappointed to see this shotgun since it's my fav in ME3, but I though just a few known guns will make it into this game. I'm not gonna be surprised if the Harrier makes an appearance in some other trailer... Edit: This one maybe the Viper?  It's a bit hard to tell. In the trailer it clearly has a green painting on it and a different scope. Both things easily explainable, could be just different attachments and/or the ability to add camos to the weapons. Still, not 100% confirmed. |

Just seen this thread.
I agree about the Viper, it looks like it, but modded. In the headshot scene, the sharpshooter has a sniper that is very Viper-like, but different than the one the other Sharpshooter had. Maybe grunts will have moded weapons.
Liam what look like a Tempest during the Hydra scene, and what seems to be an unknown AR during the Fiend scene. Cora has an unknown AR or Shotgun.
The Avenger is used as a placeholder icon during a scene (the weapon doesn't look like the Avenger, eventhough the icon is here).

The Avenger is used as a placeholder icon during a scene (the weapon doesn't look like the Avenger, eventhough the icon is here). Yeah, I noticed that too about the "Avenger" Probably they didn't had the thumbnail done yet for that specific weapon. And yes the Tempest was confirmed, they showed it back in the PS4 tech demo. I'm started to get the impression that all weapons from ME2 will make it into the game, and a lot from ME3 too. I think the ME2 weapons are considered by everyone to be the classics, since pretty much all were done based on the original 3D models from ME1. I just hope they add many more alien and new weapons, because it's a new galaxy after all. |

Digging up this thread once more, it's important to keep the archive! Here's my founding on weapons, the thing that interests me the most. If anyone else wants to do powers stuff, be my guest. So yeah, the Tempest SMG is now the "Charger" they did this on purpose because the ship is called Tempest or is it there some other obscure reason I cannot tell.  The 3rd shittiest SMG in all ME3 returns, here's hoping it wont suck this time (says the guy who used it a LOT in multiplayer ) However, check how this is a "pistol" now. I say, what if there're no SMGs anymore and these all are pistols, that can be modified for full-auto fire? I mean it will still make sense, after all the ME SMGs are glorified machine pistols anyways, so maybe they changed the nomenclature this time.  Shottys. Ye, ye the crusader and a helluva other stuff like the asari crap-shotgun. We can also apparently have 2 identical guns at different levels/tiers/models. Here we got 2 Crusaders one at VI and the other at V, I wonder if the ME1 loot style kinda made a return... Also, check them stats at the right of the screen, much more better than ME3 stat bars. Here we have the numbers, it's not about guessing.  Incisor is confirmed in this pic. Also there's a bunch of unknown snipers. Another thing, it's pretty obvious that the 2 slot-only mod slots made a return, that kinda suck. I wish different guns had different amounts of mods to be added, oh well.  The Valkyrie is back!!!11 all the yes, one of my favs. You also got your Mattock, not my coup of tea personally (in ME3 it kinda... sucked), but glad it's here.  Swords for the space ninja of tomorrow. Here we got this Asari swords (didn't know that swords where in the Asari culture, but hey I suppose a sword is a fairly universal weapon for ancient civilizations). If you haven't noticed, this thing deals also as much damage than the Black Widow up there, that's good because it means melee is not gonna be useless this time.  The Krogan Hammer deals the same damage than the Asari sword? RACISM  This is the PAW Remmant rifle mentioned above, now we can link the weapon with the name.  Yeah, if you haven't noticed yet, rarity cards return. I personally like it, however that can only mean one thing in MP: grinding (which I don't like btw).  Another of those Remmants shiny weapons.  This one I believe is a Kett shotgun, it looks very similar to their design, and they carry a riffle with similarities to this thing, so that's my guess.  Lastly, this. Obviously it's the N7 Valiant, but here it has 5 rounds instead of 3. Either they rebalanced the weapon or you can mod the magazine capacity of snipers this time around.  That's about it folks. |

Great job and thank you for all of those screen captures CHRrOME! I see some of my favorite weapons there so that leaves me excited. I wonder how we upgrade weapons in SP. Probably that's why we mine, for materials to upgrade guns, Melee weapons (swords, YAY!), and armors. I also wasn't the biggest of the card system because that leaves it to the MP grind. But, got to grind for something I guess! |

Okay, I'll slowly put what i find here. First, concerning inventory: On the image, we see 2 crusaders, at different levels, which might mean a return to an inventory management system similar to ME1 or DAI (for instance, you have to actually have 2 crusaders if you want to equip one and give another to Drack) |

About the skill trees: Combat fitness has ranks 3 and 5 named "Extra Holster", which probably means that this tree is directly linked tro how many weapons you can carry. Possibly, only pure soldier can carry five. |

Specializations are color coded: combat skills have a red stroke, tech an orange one and biotic purple. These strokes are also shown in the profiles, so you can see what kind of skills are in each. Favorite profiles seem limited to four, possibly selectable with the d-pad. <- Forget this, see next post |
