Andromeda Initiative briefings (6/6 Golden Worlds and Settlements)

LOL

I had forgotten about this post!

I don't know, man. I pulled it up on my desktop for the first time an hour ago and I saw not one, but two lizard eyes quite clearly!   The silhouette of the face is likewise inhuman.

I could be losing my mind, no doubt, but that looks like an alien face in that helmet. Could be lighting; could be a BioWare joke; could even be an alien squaddie (least likely). I have no idea.

I will trust your judgment. The eye-brain connection can be very strange indeed. My seeing shadows was always the most likely explanation.

listen carefully what he said in videos.

the next 5 will be :

1)Nexus Nav Directory

2)Ground and space vehicle cartification

3)colony extablishment guidelines

4)first contact protocol

5)weapon traning

I'm looking forward to that one, too. I want to see them all, really, but the weapons one would be good right now. I want to know if we are still stuck jamming silly thermal clips into our guns in 28C Andromeda. It wouldn't make much sense, and those beautiful landscapes would look ridiculous with clips all over them.

By the time we get to module 6, I expect we will have already seen the gameplay demo, and my question may be answered.

Really? I somehow never noticed. 😆  Still, Thedosians using generic bottles makes sense. (The fact that they cover the landscape makes significantly less. Clearly, the qunari or dwarves have a bottle factory, somewhere, churning them out!) Milky Way thermal clip tech in Andromeda... <disgusted noise>!

According to my calculations the Nexus is at least 15 miles long.

Thanks for posting that picture! I had seen it before in the masseffectandromeda.com site, but it had letters in front and couldn't dowload with the quality your version had!! I had been looking for it for days.

These two companions have appeared several times: tech video, trailers... One of the early leaks spoke of a human blonde and the korgan drack, plus a biotic named Cora (who may or may not be the blonde in question). The female possibly appears in the gameplay footage leak:



I believe these two human character will be sort of like Gunny Ashley Williams and Lt. Kaidan Alenko in ME 1 from a narrative point of view, they help to establish the human point of view in the story, prior to introducing other races and other perspectives that people new to the universe may not be familiar with. It was the same in ME 2 (Miranda and Jacob) and in ME 3 (Virmire survivor + Lt. Vega).

In my particular case, I tend to go with human characters that have military training as my go-to squadmates, the ones I use the most regularly. I can see myself doing the same in MEA. 

I think they are not showing their faces yet because they are still working on their final aspect. Just look at the several changes experienced by Peebee since we first saw her in that E3 trailer, with the different features she has in the Tech demo or most recent cinematic trailer. They did a similar thing with Ashley Williams duing the early promotion of ME 1 (2004, 2005, 2006...), she always had her helmet on, with a dark visor. Not only were they still making aesthetical changes to the squadmates physiques, but they actually changed her voice actor in the middle of the production (confirmed by her VA, Kymberly Brooks, during an interview).

I think their definitive faces will be shown in December.

Just roll up and ask the locals if they have a flag. No flag, no colony. Eddie Izzard style.

Glad to help.






There was a discussion when are BioWare going to post the next briefing videos.



I though a few days ago there were total of 5 videos, not 6 but still I think there's a chance they'll put one video at the beginning of every month, except for March.



I guess in March they can put two - one at the beginning of the month and the other one a day before game's release so the players can really feel they'll be leaving for Andromeda on the very next day.




And some more pics:

Well, apart from the main difference which is guns (Ranged battle that requires aiming), the rest is pretty much there...

Auto aimed ranged battle:   Mage = Biotic powers, Tech powers etc.
Melee battle:   Warrior = Introduction of new melee weapons in MEA, hammer, sword etc.
