That's cool, everyone has different preferences. My favorite squad, for the whole trilogy, was and will always be Garrus and Wrex. I liked both Kaiden when Ashley, but for the latter I prefer Miranda amen Jack. I wonder if Cora will still have that biotic bubble power. It might be interesting to use it at our advantage. I also wonder if she's blonde as the leak suggested  . My squad tended to vary depending on playthroughs to better match with whom the character I was roleplaying thought was best suited for the mission although I admit, I tend to often partner with the squadmates whom I like and find interesting on the first run. In ME1, it tended to be Garrus and Wrex and in ME3, it tended to be Garrus and Javik. The latter got to go along on every mission after he joined because I liked his character and lines so much. What's funny is that Javik's type of personality is almost always one that I can barely tolerate but he ended up being one of my all-time favorite companions and I mentioned, I brought him along on every mission.
Based on the leaked footage, it seems highly likely that she is as the female human squadmate in said footage had blonde hair. I think it is possible that Cora will still be a biotic.
Note: I didn't mention ME2 because my squad tended to vary a fair bit during my first run as well as subsequent runs.
In general I like to switch members in the same playthrough as well. It happened more in ME2 and ME3 then the first. Garrus and Wrex were though my favorite combination for both a gameplay perspective and a character perspective (they're both in my top 5 squadmates of the trilogy). I'm pretty sure she'll be a biotic, I just wonder if she have the same power the leak mentioned. As for the hair, Frostbite doesn't have the same problems with rendering blonde hairs then UE3, so hopefully they sticked with it.

I agree, but I meant that we should get varies options and not just lots of ponytails I think it may actually be a bun but it's been a bit since I last saw the footage so I may be forgetting about something or movement that indicates it's a ponytail. Although and I admit this may sound wierd but I don't think they'd give a companion the same hairstyle as one of the default Ryders.

Things like hairstyles can even change later in development as shown with Josephine, so we'll have to wait and see what she'll look like in the full game.

I am perfectly fine with a bun. Loved Ash in me1!

This is a husk of an OP.
Also I'm pretty sure Cora got scrapped.

Like other twenty of his threads apparently. Also I'm pretty sure Cora got scrapped. She wasn't. Tom Taylorson @catherine02p Ryder's in a body suit. Cora's in a body suit. Liam's in... Cargo pants? ...probably not... ;-)

I wonder if Bioware will let her have her hair down when on the tempest, and when on missions, its put back to a ponytail or bun. The same with sister Ryder

Ashley is no more racist than, say, Mordin, who scoffs at the very idea of a krogan scientist. Krogan aren't exactly biologically tailored to be scientists. Whereas Ashley believes aliens are inferior to humans.

Whereas Ashley believes aliens are inferior to humans. When exactly did she even say something close to that?  ? Her diffidence in ME is based on thinking that another species would always put its own before any other species (which is exactly what almost everyone did in ME, humans included). She didn't think humans are superior to other species, but that we should think of humans first.

Her diffidence in ME is based on thinking that another species would always put its own before any other species (which is exactly what almost everyone did in ME, humans included). She didn't think humans are superior to other species, but that we should think of humans first. She believes in human supremacy. She has a chip on her shoulder because of what her grandfather did, and she openly says she has prejudices against aliens simply because they aren't human. That said, I don't particularly find her to be racist myself anyway. I find her to be more of a protectionist. My argument was simply to defend Mordin, who sees both the good and bad in all races, from a strictly unbiased perspective.
