Personally I think the CC needs some work. I understand that its limits is so that Alec Ryder looks like you. But overall that formula is based on Preset + Skin Tone + Eyecolor anyways. Plus actual genetics does allow for different Eye, Eyebrow, Nose and Mouth shapes. - And really, its not like you see Alec's face after the Habitat 7, so the lack of options in the CC doesnt make any sense from a narrative or gameplay perspective. And as far as getting your Twin to look like your Ryder's sibling, picking the same numbered preset is like 90% of the work, even if we had more options.
Besides the ability to change the shapes of different facial features. Theres some other things that need to be addressed.
Scars; Holy ugly sin. They dont even look like scars. Dragon Age Inquisition did scars pretty well. I liked their scars. Fallout 4 which is newer then DAI did scars well. There is no excuse for the 25c machine temp tattoo looking bs they gave us. And its not just a texture issue. Its also how they lay on the face, where they are placed, and what they look like. Like, what the hell is this grate mark shit?
Tattoos; Theres what? 6 actual options when you remove the repeats? And none of them are tattoos anyone would actually get. The only semi decent one is the blocky neck tattoo. And I stress the words semi decent.
Makeup: Lol, bring on the Clowns much? The only saving grace for makeup is eyeliner, and thats cause it helps with the bugout eyes ME:A suffers from.
Hair Styles; They are... okay. Honestly, as far as the hair goes, I'd just like them to make all hairstyles an option for both genders. And maybe throw in some more long-ish hairstyles.
Beards: Besides the fact they dont align with any of the hairstyles? Theres no 5 o'clock shadow/stubble/scruff option. (unless you use default bro!Ryder) the textures make them look painted on. And the styles look like rejects from a steampunk scifi. Which, for some of the NPCs, thats okay. But something needs to be done, cause these beard options make FO4's look fantastic.
As far as the other possible things being added. I miss my M-15 Vindicator assulte rifle. And I'd love to see more armor options, cause right our armor options are just slightly altered versions of whatever the base armor is. Example "Initiative Spearpoint" chest is just a slightly more robust looking version of the standard Initiative chest, with some straps on the front. It has better status, but over all it doesnt look different. Theres a total of 11 options, including the extra content from preorder/deluxe, but excluding the "Upgraded" variants. Both ME2 and ME3 had more armor options, either as mix-and-match pieces, (Help, Shoulders, Chest, Arms and Legs) or as non customizable sets either included in vanilla or from preorder/dlc/other sources. - In addition, I'd like to have the ability to change the color of the lights on my armor. Its a minor thing, but there it is. xD
As far as the casual outfits and the rumored "Romance" Outfit.. arg. I have no interest in my sis!Ryder being shoved into a dress ala ME2 and ME3. (I for one would rather have a suit, cause I hated both the little black dress of ME2 and the N7 extra-large-tanktop-with-a-belt dress of ME3. ) I do want to see more casual outfits though, MEA only has 4, (including the ugly ass hoodie from the DE. I say ugly cause the model doesnt look like a hoodie. They should have just upgraded the N7 hoodie model tbh) ME2 had 5, if you had Kasumi's DLC, and ME3 had 6 if you got the CE. Personally, I'd like to see a dress uniform and/or a science uniform in addition to fatigues (such as the default or battle dress uniform from ME3.) Or baring those options, something like Liam's and Cora's outfits minus the armor bits over a dressy "Romance outfit". But thats just me, and I'm gonna be annoyed when the female romance outfit is a dress. Not if, when.
Beyond all the things mentioned above. Theres a lot of quest bugs I've been experiencing, where optional objectives cant be done cause I somehow triggered a terminal before the objective was triggered, or quests arnt firing right, or break or or dont get triggered, or markers vanished. Thankfully its just been sidequests for me, but its annoying. So those need to be fixed. And I would really really really like it if all the Asari didnt look the same. And if Lexi was made romanceable.

the ME movie was announced or at least had a panel at San Diego comic con way back in 2011. I know because I was there and got a free console copy of ME2 including all DLC (except Arrival). However I'll believe it once I see an actual trailer (not a teaser) and filming has begun. Now whether a ME movie makes sense or not (so many player's choices vs canonizing, or simply do a movie based in the ME universe) is another question for another topic.
As for the Patch 1.06, while I understand those wanting better CC options etc., how about we let them fix the basic game breaking bugs (save games and checks, quests availability in SP and whatever is the issue in MP, first. I'm sure DLC and improved CC will follw down the line with further bug fixing.

cool will be nice to get a look at the romance outfits. I assume they'll be in the next patch. I believe those outfits are part of the Deluxe Edition support for May. I can't locate the original announcement from BioWare, but here's a link to a secondary source. www.xboxachievements.com/news/news-26519-Mass-Effect-Andromeda-Deluxe-Edition-Owners-Get-Extra-Free-Stuff-in-May.htmlWhy can't they tell us what will be in the patch beforehand? Unless of course they know the stuff people are waiting for will be in the next May patch and not this one... Exactly my thoughts. They know that the many will bitch if tomorrow's fixes aren't the exact fixes these individuals want most. They're still on schedule with the patches, so there's no need for complaints; but I'm sure this place will be running with tears in the morning. I know that that's why I asid what I did because surprise surprise we happen to be in May now and I have the deluxe edition so that's why I said that as I should get access to it and I assume they'd throw it in with the patch.for the deluxe consumers

I haven't dealt with any major bugs, the CC is okay/I won't literally die to play a character I've made from it, what I'm currently waiting for is romance improvements. I wanna do my NG+ Reyes romance, doesn't have to be big, some more emails or whatever would do even I just don't wanna start a playthrough and miss content. Also, I'm hoping they do something about the scaling because I heard that can be a bit of an issue at higher levels.

This is my biggest concern tbh. If tomorrow's patch doesn't fix every single one of the major issues people have brought up, so many will brand it a failure and a waste of time, etc. etc, even though BioWare are still within their 2 month window and Mike Gamble even directly stated they're immediately starting work on the next patch. And even after that, once we've had the CC updates and other visual improvements they're working on and the DLC begins, it's not like the patches will just 'end'. If it's anything like DAI, we'll be getting bugfixes a full year after the game released, so I wouldn't panic. If the bugs being fixed at that stage are still major ones, mind you, then that's another story... I Don't expect cc changes anytime soon. If Dragon Age Inquisition can be used as a model we will most likely have some DLC content before that happens. Cora's VA even said on twitter she was doing work for Mass Effect Andromeda a few days ago. ,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-(_MEA_)-,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸
Hm.... Cora's character better be improved. That constant "I rely on Sarissa's tac manual" to do my thinking, is starting to get under my skin.

Isn't that precisely what wraiths do? It sounds like it's "working as intended". Id not had any weird spawning issues until yesterday. Then, I had several battles in which enemies kept appearing out of thin air, generally right next to me or behind me.

Inquisition had pathetic AI too and that never changed. If it didn't work as released it's just a sign that they don't have the right staff to make good AI.
