May be old news for some, since they released it on September 14th (and perhaps it was in the Twitch stream) but since there have recently been a few threads about what should be added, I thought I'd post this anyway:
In the coming months, we’re introducing three new character kits to Mass Effect: Andromeda’s multiplayer. We’ll also continue to introduce challenging new weekly APEX missions that play to the strengths of these new kits and abilities.
In October, the Human Artificer joins APEX. This genius programmer in a suit of Remnant Tech Armor is a highly-capable support character. Invasion and Cryobeam weaken and disable enemies, while the Remnant VI adds DPS and opportunities for combo detonations.
We’re also adding a new assault rifle to the weapon pool—the Sovoa. This semi-automatic rifle fires energy blasts that cause a shockwave-like explosion upon impact. The elegance of the single-beam blast matches the rifle's sleek design. The Sovoa, translated to "lights out," is the first weapon developed by Taravay Industries, a new manufacturer co-founded by angara and turians. A product of two galaxies, the rifle combines Milky Way kinetic coils with angaran explosives.
In November, the Human Commando and Guardian join the fray. The Commando wields a combination of biotic and combat abilities to devastating effect. Capable of dealing high-level biotic damage, the Commando can also disable groups of enemies with Warp and Singularity before finishing them off with a Turbocharge volley.
The Guardian is a defensive powerhouse, whose tools are designed to keep him and his teammates alive. With Shield Boost and Backlash to shore up defenses, he can also disable enemies and create combos with Warp.
While there are no planned patches, our team is continuing to look into quality-of-life requests from our players. We’ll also have more opportunities for you to get APEX elite packs, including a special N7 Day mission.
Stay tuned to our channels for more information when those missions go live.www.masseffect.com/news/mass-effect-andromeda-whats-coming-in-multiplayerSo, The N7 Day thingy will be a mission. They're also still looking for - ahem - 'quality-of-life' requests from players... |

Thanks for letting us know this. So, already made content being released monthly to give the illusion of development. Nothing new coming, just unlocking already downloaded files.
tl;dr Nothing to see here, moving on.

Yes we need yet another semi-automatic assault riffle. A semi-automatic assault rifle, that will never be used because headshots aren't reliable and Hurricane still exist. Quality of life is nothing more than an overall assault rifle buff for me. (make all of them negate 50% of armor DR... SOLVED .... kinda) I always like playing the assault rifle buff apex missions. Its the only time they feel like they even matter. |

They obviously don't want us all giving up on the game yet, do they?
Releasing previously developed characters/weapons etc is fine by me, but they must fix the game if they want me to continue to play. There are still problems with sound cut-out, headshots that don't register, and intermittent latency/rubberbanding that make this game frustrating and unplayable. The thing that really bothers me is that they know all about it from the complaints, but the devs never mention these issues/problems in the stream. Which probably means that they don't intend to do anything about them...
Nothing to see here.

Its the only time they feel like they even matter. Armour DR was significant in ME3 but is pretty negligible in ME:A. 50 vs 20 on gold I believe. A flat bonus-to-armour mechanic would be better, I think. A 50% bonus for the Revenant would make it just about on par with the Hurricane against armour which feels right considering their difference in rarity, weight, reload time and the existence of the Expert package. |

(salarian infiltrator Black Widow banshee headshots.... mmmm) MEA feels like rarity plays absolutely no part in effectiveness. Which I would agree with, if each gun served a purpose or was useful beyond literally just being available to use. Soned for instance, is heavy as hell, and UR, and is less effective than the hurricane in all shapes and sizes besides clip. Having a big clip is useless though when 80% of your shots miss. I swear its just hurricane and dhan all day long... unless your "shyts and giggles" mode, there is absolutely nothing else. |

I've heard the devs say that shotguns have traditionally been good against armour too but I'm really not sure where that's coming from. All things considered in ME3 if a shotgun and sniper rifle each did 800 base damage, the sniper would do 750 to armour but the shotgun would only do 400 (8 pellets x 50 DR each). Am I missing something? |

I knew the rest of it already but this is the first I've heard that the N7 day "surprise" is a special mission. Inb4 it turns out to be Platinum Into The Ruins.

Am I missing something? Clearly we both have been missing something.... clearly.... in ME3 Some shotguns and snipers had hidden modifiers and effects that made them worth using against armor. In MEA some shotguns have 1.25 multiplier, but usually its being cancelled out by the DR. The most effective shotguns are "sniper rifles" being Dhan and Crusader. |

*AHEM* Yes more opportunities for Apex Elite Packs sure, but I think considering the cards you now have to get in the UR weapon pool especially, it would be extremely advisable to improve the drop rate of UR cards finally after everyone wanting them to be less ultra-rare than they are for obtaining them. I really don't know if i'm ever going to max anything in the UR pools, but it would be nice to see some progress in this area, so it doesn't feel now like an insane grind. Winter is coming, new games will no doubt be coming too, and i'd love to make a bigger impact on my UR's before i hang up my guns and armour eventually. |
