...I just noticed the titles below our names have changed. I was "God" and now I'm "N4" --Are we doing N7 ranks on the boards now? :ulikeit: 
I was wondering that too. I couldn't find any info about it in the forum threads. I wanted to know what the new tiers are....how many posts do we need to get to N7 status?
The place feels kinda dead today. I think a lot of people are hiding in their bunkers to avoid getting spoiled accidentally. 
So, non-spoiler question for anyone still out there: Will you play male or female PC first?
I normally go female when that's an option, but I kinda want to just get to playing right away once the early access opens up, so I think I will start off with default male. He's pretty to look at, which is very important for someone I'm going to be staring at for 100 hours or so.  I don't really care for default female appearance as of what I last saw, so it might take some time to make her look good. I'll have that time after I've played for a while. 
MEA will be the first time I start off with a female character. It will also be the first time I have a first playthrough for a character that isn't all goody-2-shoes/paragon like I do in all other Bioware games. Instead, she will be a bit more on the aggressive side. Think Jack from ME2.... In fact, if character creator allows us, I would like to model the "style" of Sara Ryder off of ME3 Jack but with a darker skin tone.  |

melbella just a quick warning if you haven't seen it yet: there's a comment about MEA in phoray's ME playthrough thread, from themikefest. It's vague, but still FYI.
Thanks for the heads up. I think I may have seen that actually, but just kinda glossed over it and pretended I didn't.

I hope that's a hair option. Just a giant reaper to place on top of your character. Ohh that would be amazing. It would be even better if it made they eyes roll back into the head and added a foaming at the mouth effect like it was a parasite controlling your brain. So something like...?   |

I normally go female when that's an option, but I kinda want to just get to playing right away once the early access opens up, so I think I will start off with default male. He's pretty to look at, which is very important for someone I'm going to be staring at for 100 hours or so. I don't really care for default female appearance as of what I last saw, so it might take some time to make her look good. I'll have that time after I've played for a while.
I’m starting with a female protagonist but I’m not planning on going with any default since I prefer to customize each of my characters. I can't help but plan ahead of how my characters might look so I made some concepts on that. I don't mind it since it helps save me time in the character creator.
My concept for my first playthrough is a dark skin tone, brown eyes and red or light-brown hair depending on how much I like the red color. I'm planning on adding freckles and a light scar if those options are avaliable so I might lighten up the dark skin just a touch if it's difficult to see the freckles. That was a bit of a problem for me with my Inquisitor. Of hair, I'm thinking curly hair if that is avaliable and if I like the style otherwise I might go for something short but stylish. I'm hoping there might be something like a fringed bob cut that's short.
I'm planning on making her serious when on-duty but very relaxed and joking off-duty. With the Paragon and Renegade morality gone, I'm planning on playing her more intentional nuanced: she'll do what she thinks is right but that right is not necessarily pleasent or something that she'll feel good about. She'll generally be a nice person that tries for diplomacy but there would be nuances and exceptions to that. I suppose it might be a case-by-case basis. It'll be nice not having to roleplay while worrying about filling a point quota.
In terms of romance and friendships, I'm going to continue with my previous way of doing romance in that I'll romance someone whose personality I think suits hers or someone who I think she has good chemistry with. If that fits nobody, well, then she'll just be single. It's happened before in Jade Empire and Knights of the Old Republic so that'll just be how it is. I'm also going to continue to not play in freeform with my character to gain "approval" unless it's a deliberate play by my character. I feel like it kind of cheapens my character and their relationship to the other character if I freeform so I tend not to.
In terms of "class", I'm still keeping to my plan of making her a hybrid between a sniper and an adept with an engineer drone or turret if I can. I'm also thinking of changing the color of her armor so it might match better with the terrain of the planet she's going to. It might not be possible in-game but it's just something I think could be neat.
I'm still planning on doing those spoiler-free videos of the character creator during early acces for this thread so maybe we could do a sharing round here of screenshots of our respective characters. Would be interesting to see what others have cooked up of characters.

Although I'm planning on making her blonde while keeping the dark skin. I liked that contrast a lot with my second Shepard. The reason I'm waiting with her is more or less the same reason that I'm waiting with the character for my second playthrough. I need to see what dialogue options the game provides. I really want to make my second character stoic and a bit of a hardass since that's how I envisioned him.

I always play games as if I was the MC, I put myself in their shoes and make the decisions I would make.
To reflect this, I always end up trying to make a character similar to me: Male, dark hair, brown skin, short beard.

He's pretty to look at, which is very important for someone I'm going to be staring at for 100 hours or so. I don't really care for default female appearance as of what I last saw, so it might take some time to make her look good. I'll have that time after I've played for a while. I've been thinking about this. I always go female first when given the option, but that mRyder is easy on the eyes so I wouldn't mind staring at his face for an entire game.  I do want to play around in the CC as always though and I'm not attached to femRyder's look. It might feel strange playing the first time with default when I never have. Not one for defaults in general -- I only used "Sheploo" once but never ME3-femShep or either Hawke -- but I do expect I'll be using this one at some point. So, part of me feels I should carry on the tradition, the other part of me feels I should change things up a bit and the other other part of me worries that I'll make the "wrong" choice. My first playthrough doesn't have to be "perfect" or "canon" but it will be THE first impression. Unless I can repress hard enough I guess. :ulikeit: If I was ambitious I might try playing both genders at once... but I prefer completing or at least doing as much as I can in a game first before replaying it. First time through is how I feel out the game; it's easier for me rp better (and think of more characters) when I'm more familiar with how things work. Or I guess after I get past all the initial "  feels" of playing for the first time.  I do like playing both genders in games and have done so in every BioWare game I've played, so I'm hoping MEA won't be different in offering enough incentive -- although that doesn't help me for the first pick, does it.  I have had better luck with romances when playing female first, but I'm feeling cautiously optimistic about how things will go for both genders in this game. MEA will be the first time I start off with a female character. It will also be the first time I have a first playthrough for a character that isn't all goody-2-shoes/paragon like I do in all other Bioware games. Instead, she will be a bit more on the aggressive side. Think Jack from ME2.... I know what you mean. I've had a habit of going strong "paragon" first time as well, in most games. Hopefully MEA will have more than just "nice" or "rude" like in the past though. Something that I would like to try is more of a "muted" character who doesn't talk a lot personally but still interacts with others, but that's not really applicable I suppose. Also, nice Jack pic. Probably not gonna happen, but I hope we have some tattoo options in the CC. I'd be happy with scars/freckles/markings/whatnot but tattoos, even subtle ones, would be cool. |

My first playthrough will be as Sara. I always tend to primarily play female protagonists in Bioware games with 1 playthrough as a male to check out the voice actor, rock a cool beard and romance the straight girl or gay dude. My Shepards tended to all look vaguely similar no matter how long I spent in the character creator so I have an army of sister Shepards, I'm hoping that this doesn't happen with Sara and I can make each one look more unique. As for personality, I think I'll start off with a casual and flirty Sara to get the feel for the crew, the romances and the story decisions and see where that takes me. |

If people here do share some CC screens during their early access, thank you! I've had a tradition of always going default male face/solider class/paragon the first playthrough with the ME trilogy. Just to get a feel for the game, romance choices, and the decisions that need to be made. Then I go for a custom face/different class and metagame for subsequent playthroughs so I can see the additional content/reactions I hadn't seen before. I think for ME3 I had 7 or 8 different characters (yeah, including MP I definitely got my moneys worth on that game ). I'm in the minority where I find SisRyder's default model more attractive and am have trouble connecting with BroRyder's default model for some reason. I don't know why. This may be the first time I play the female default character first. Either way, I'm looking forward to playing on 3/21! |

Guys guys guys! And gals! I pre-ordered the Deluxe edition today, super excited!! I tried to be sensible and hold off after reviews. Or be clever and get the normal version cheaper. But nah too much enthusiasm for this series and wanted to show some support to Bioware(I mean have you seen Twitter? It's awful!).
I love how these forums have a topic that's completely spoiler free intentionally by design - really showing an understanding of the user base. I've avoided ALL videos/spoilers apart from the official trailer from the other day, figured the trailer wouldn't spoil too much. I HATE spoilers so this thread is just ideal.
But that makes answering who I'm going to play, M or F, really hard to answer! I made a topic looking for voice samples, but all I got were real life interviews with the voice actors, so I'm still lost. I always do a male Paragon and Female Renegade runthru. I just can't make evil choices as a man, but playing as a female adds that layer of separation between me and my character to disassociate me from their more reprehensible actions. But my 1st playthough is always my canon, and always a mix/feels right approach- but I'd like it to be with best Voice Actor for andromeda.
I'll definitely change the face though. Scott looks a bit too young and cool for my tastes and Sara's definitely a little off kilter for my interpretation f a hero,

Welp, I had to remove the MEA twitter thread from my bookmarks, as I think they're gonna change the title to more spoilery things. I just miss it and was planning to get back in after I've played... Also kind of stopped checking in at the MET sub-forums. Which is probably for the best anyway; safer for me and less distracting from stuff I need to do before MEA arrives... next week...  |

I will not watch any videos or view any screenshots of CC, but I do not mind reading a post here from a person who watched the video/read the preview. Regarding the prologue, didn't IGN release a video showing the first 13 min of the game? Was that not the prologue? |

Appreciate the warning. I updated Origin, so I see the option there now but I'm not going to look. Not.....going....to....look.....Nonononoo.
So, anyone know the exact time Early Access opens up on Thursday? I'm thinking by the time the game finishes dl'ing and installing it will probably be regular preload time so I won't really have gained much.

I've tried finding it but had no luck. It may be staring me right in the face but I'm not seeing it. It's a bit annoying since I like to know if it becomes avaliable at a time where I cannot play such as during the night. I like to know in advance so I don't spend the day waiting and checking for it. |

So, anyone know the exact time Early Access opens up on Thursday? I'm thinking by the time the game finishes dl'ing and installing it will probably be regular preload time so I won't really have gained much.
I've tried finding it but had no luck. It may be staring me right in the face but I'm not seeing it. It's a bit annoying since I like to know if it becomes avaliable at a time where I cannot play such as during the night. I like to know in advance so I don't spend the day waiting and checking for it. Are you on Origin? It depends on where you live. My Early Access opens at 7:30am on the 16th because I'm in Australia. That's 5:30pm on the 15th New York time. |

*pops head into the spoiler free blanket fort* I'm scared of the flood of content that awaits us later today. Can't log off entirely because I handle my company's social media stuff and the BSN and reddit are always just one click away and I'm weak.  |

The unlock time has vanished from my trial on Origin, but it used to say 10:30pm CET on March 15. I think that would translate to whatever timezone you're in. |

I know what you mean, I was okay with managing the amount of information I got until the IGN mission videos started to make the rounds. I didn't watch them but I was so tempted. |

I don't really care for default female appearance as of what I last saw, so it might take some time to make her look good. I'll have that time after I've played for a while. 
I do want to play around in the CC as always though and I'm not attached to femRyder's look. It might feel strange playing the first time with default when I never have. Not one for defaults in general -- I only used "Sheploo" once but never ME3-femShep or either Hawke -- but I do expect I'll be using this one at some point.

I have had better luck with romances when playing female first, but I'm feeling
