<<<<<<<<<<(0)>>>>>>>>>> Remember this patch? But mac was wearing this: What's happening? Has the studio abandoned the Pathfinder patch logo for a more futuristic look? Or was the change made to accommodate Jemisin's book the Andromeda: Initiative? Does the patch only represent the ARKCON project while the Pathfinder is a sub group within the overall organization whose purpose is to "make a trail", find suitable worlds and colonise them? Is that why we see Mac and Ryder wearing the Ai? = Andromeda Initiative because, the ARKCON project was left behind? If you go here: www.masseffect.com/newsnotice the original logo to the left of the tab marked "news". Did Bio forget to replace it? Any other explanation out there? |

I can see both symbols being used in the setting. To use a comparison, the ARKCON symbol would be like the Systems Alliance or Citadel Space logo, representing a large group, while the Ai symbol would be like the N7 or Spectre logo, representing a smaller group within the bigger group.

From the trailers we know that there are multiple Arcs, so the overall project could be the Pathfinder Initiative A.R.C.C.O.N
with the AI being the Andromeda Galaxy part of the whole Initiative with multiple Galaxies and arcs - to avoid the all eggs, one basket situation.
ARC could stand for arc itself or maybe Andromeda Research Colonization and CON could mean contingency.
My guess, we'll see the AI on the uniforms and the ARCCON on the "Arc" ETA "Ark" Ships or at least at the beginning of the story in the Milky Way.

In my opinion, those are 2 different things. 3 Actually, remember this?  The girly is using the AI symbol whereas this dude has that "A" thing. |

A decent hint is that Titan Books first anounced the novels as Mass Effect: Pathfinder Initiative and then in a later brochure called it Mass Effect: Andromeda Initiative. It seems there was a change.

Things like this change. The original was much too busy to seen or read unless by CSI:BSN photographers. Makes sense, if you ask me.
