Another tweet:

Queston:  Can you at least confirm if some of the previous LI's (Of either gender choice) will now be open to the same-sex option?

Answer: As w/ the other LI's, specifying who, why, and how spoils the value of the storyline. We want you to discover for yourself.

Someone brought up a good point about the S/S with the VS, due to option of either of them being dead and the issue already at hand with their amount of dialogue for either one who might not appear in everyones game, it might be more costly to make them bisexual due to the fact that half the time one of them is dead. So if they were to do a S/S I think it would be with someone who is more likely to be in the game to secure the S/S role per se?


And I thought that was a very good point...if you started as a Maleshep in ME2 you'd have Ash not Kaidan...very hard to romance someone not in your game.

Another new tweet:

Question: Wondering if relationships will track partial romances, conflicts, rejections, ect.

Answer: Writers on #ME3 have access to all the past player decisions so they can integrate those things into the story as needed.



I hope this includes whether you turned Kaidan pro-human. I'd hate for that decision to go to waste...but it is good to hear that they are taking everything into consideration.

Okay I'm dying laughing here...just saw a poll about having Udina as a LI.

I don't know if we've already discussed this, I've been staying away from the boards to avoid spoilers... but I was staring at my new wallpaper with the ME3 screenshot... okay I was staring at Kaidan. And I realized you can see his bars... like on his collar. He's not wearing an under-garment/suit like MShep! ?? Why would he be wearing his blues under his full armor??

Maybe it's just shout out to us who like him in his uniform or maybe it's an indication that he was at Shepard's trial (he/she was told to wear his/her dress blues) and in the heat of the attack had to throw on his armor...then again maybe they just like the look.

Casey did just tweet that Sheps armor on the cover is actual armor in the game but that they have more...Does anyone know if we will be able to change squadmates armor? I haven't really been paying that much attention...I always made sure I upgraded Kaidan's in ME...found it was neccessary...at least the way I played him on the squad.

If I learned anything from Star Trek, it's uniforms are never stable.  They probably changed what the undersuit looks like over the course of time.

Seems like it would be uncomfortable... yet exciting for when the armor comes off. :whistle:
I was stressing about the number of bars, two, but after some research... military family would be devastated I don't have these things memorized... two are consistent with Staff Commander. It is strange to see them on the collar. It seems in all other ME with dress blues they are only on the shoulders. I always read too much into these things.

Very, very true. One of my complaints with the 'new' Star Trek... if it was supposedly set before... shouldn't they have the old school uniforms. Ugh... inconsistencies.
Why then does MShep! have the spandex looking black unders? While it was Shep was dead change? Or would he have a complex about having less bars on his unders, since Kaidan outranks him? :P

I don't know if everyone has already seen this but I found this picture in the article in OXM.
Sorry about the quality I don't have a scanner so I had to take a photo of it with my camera, with the flash on so you could see it....

On a related note, Kaidan's stupid ME2 head morph mesh whatever thingy is stupidly mismatched, and it's driving me insane. *headdesk*

lol...I will not repeat what I'm thinking...uh um...I do like the pic though...really nice in a quiet Kaidan way.

irJessica I think someone said we weren't allowed to post scans or pics from the mags...I know the other pic was allowed after they released it as a wallpaper/screenshot whatever...I don't know about this one (might need to take it down). I have seen it though...I'm guessing that's an artists rendering of Kaidan??? reminds me more of Derek from SCC in the bone structure.

I was curious about this one. How come this Kaidan looks so weirdly different from the one in the pic with Shepard and Liara? Their like two totally different models.

I didn't even think it might be Kaidan until I realized the armor was almost identical...almost...it says S1(with some writing under it I can't read)  where the pic with Shep and Liara has the Spectre symbol. Conception art for the armor more than likely. They don't always look like the character.

I hope its not him. This may be James Vega or whoever else, but remodelling / processing our cutie Kaidan into "this| just can't be right! :o:O:O

One appears to be concept art, the other appears to be a render.  Observe:

Yeah, you're right...but why take an old concept art, refresh it slightly and give to journalists for their aritcles about ME 3? :huh:

I don't think there is any need to be concerned. They were probably more focused on the armor than anything else.

Everyone else has probably noticed this, but, I just wanted to point out that in-game Miranda and cover-art Miranda don't look too similar.  Another good example is the original render of Jack 
http://i25.tinypic.com/2mx4ms4.jpg compared to her final.

The weird thing is, Kaidan already has an established look, I mean, he's not a brand new character who has some time to get the kinks in his appearance worked out while development's still going on.  I guess they were just focusing on the armor in this, but still, it's annoying.

I don't find it strange, concepts often or maybe even always differ from the in game models, and games tend to have one or few graphical avatars of characters/creatures/items. Some of them won't even see the sunlight, others will be published in some artbooks.
Similarity depends on the author (they don't exactly need to nail the similarity due to nature of their drawing style - remember Yoshitaka Amano? :P), references he has and purpose of the picture. This definitely had something to do with armor, because it's strongly detailed in some places and the Spectre symbol is in other place than we later saw on the ingame pic. It's really nothing to be nervous about.

Uniforms could change as well. Old ones were, well, old and pixelated.

Edit: stupid censorship :/

@FireEye - I've been to few places and read people reactions to that pic. He apparently is not Kaidan, this guy is too cool to be Kaidan, or this pic is a placeholder. Or this is the new guy. I don't know why, but for me he was instantly recognizable even without the caption. /shrug

As for the artistic value of said concept art - I like it. Number of details lessens towards the bottom, but his face is so damn peaceful.
