Jacob Taylor:

While Shepard is being trialed he returns to Alliance and signs up for N7 special training. In the middle of ME3 he returns as squadmate.


Miranda Lawson:

She stays on Normandy but no longer 2nd in Command since she's not part of Alliance and do to her former loyalty to Cerberus. Instead it's Ashley/Kaidan. Not Shepard's choice since he/she will be part of Alliance again in ME3.


Garrus Vakarian:

He's with you from start to finish. Though you can left him on Palaven's moon, where Turians evacuated, so that his leadership skills don't get wasted and he'll be more useful then just be another grunt by Shep's side. You meet him again before assaulting Sol system personally. If LI then you even "talk" private but not in PG-13 style.


Mordin Solus:

He'll be with you from start but won't be squadmate and insted he will be just scientist on Normandy because he's too old for combat. Though he can be temporarly squadmate on salarian homeworld do to genophage issue.


Grunt:

He goes to Tuchanka because krogans need him and he thinks Shepard is weak for surrendering himself/herself to Alliance. If you didn't do his loyalty mission he'll be hated on Tuchanka by everyone except Wrex/Wreav.


Jack:

She's with you from start to finish only if she was loyal in ME2.


Tali'Zorah vas Normandy:

She'll be with you from start to finish. She'll take large role in Geth-Quarian conflict. Depending how you treat her she'll either betray you or stay with you if choose to side with Geth.


Thane Krios:

You'll have a choice( only if he was loyal in ME2) to either keep him in squad but dies in middle of game or let him go to treatmen on Hanar homeworld. If he was a LI, he'll visit Shepard personally before liberation of Sol System. Otherwise you get either email or something better, he'll contact you like Admiral Hackett in Arrival or Council in ME1 on Normandy.


Samara:

She leaves. If you are Renegade you will only get an email since she'll have to kill you do to her code, while Paragons will get cameo and she might help a little to get help from Asari.


Morinth:

She leaves you since you are part of Alliance again. Might return as squadmate later in game.


Legion:

He'll be with you from start to finish. He'll take large role in Geth-Quarian conflict. Depending how you treat him he'll either betray you or stay with you if choose to side with Quarians.


Zaeed Massani:

Leaves. Might work for Shadow Broker though. Cameo.


Kasumi Goto:

Leaves. Might work for Shadow Broker though. Cameo.

Taken that ME3 starts a few months after ME2, possibly.

If there's other Alliance crewmates, yup, I agree. There's the Ash/Miri catfigh beweent who's in charge as the XO.

So in ME2 he was able to fight but not in ME3? I don't think a few months will affect that much. But you added temporarly squadmate, so probably something to do with the genophage.

Not a bad idea actually.

[quote]Jack:

Dunno why people would be punished for not doing her loyalty mission. I see it more just effecting ME2's SM.

It would be cool if Zaeed and Kasumi worked for the Shadow Broker, since it's Liara (Or Feron), the SB isn't a dick anymore, so it could be FOR GOOD.

Well he is an iconic character in Mass Effect. There's no reason to dump and fans would just rage for not having him.

I didn't said he isn't able to fight but he just get too tired after fighting. That could have started to happen during ME2 as well, just not as serious.

Because she thinks then that galaxy can just go to hell and since she'll get more mature in ME3( if you trust PS3 magazine) it would make sense only if she's loyal.
Though I'm also counting loosing her loyalty with confrontation with Miranda and not regaining it again.

Considering he'll die in matter of months I don't think that would make sense if he stays with you.

Well she'll try to kill you but only if she bumps on you. That's why she avoids you.

Well they are DLC characters so I highly doubt they'll be squadmates.
It is for the best for them to work with Shadow Broker( Liara or Feron).

[AdmiralCheez]

Hey! Someone else supports the "DLC squaddies might work for SB" thingy! Awesome!

Disagree about Grunt, though--he's your standard meat tank and Shepard is his battlemaster.

[Sparrow44]

I think Zaeed and Kasumi could be headhunted by Cerberus during the events of ME3, Zaeed would have a large bounty on himself due to his history with Cerberus and the events of his LM with the Blue Suns, and Kasumi depending on the information relating to the Alliance on her graybox (information Cerberus would love to get their hands on).

Agree with Jacob possibly re-joining the Alliance as he mentions he had an offer off returning and with a possible promotion. Miranda has never been with the Alliance so atm it's unsure if she sticks with Shepard or is still involved with Cerberus (maybe held captive by them).

Grunt whilst part of Clan Urdnot is also loyal to Shepard and would rather fight alongside him/her on the main front-line as opposed to staying on Tuchanka.

Your Thane idea is a pretty good one OP, would be a bonus if we got to see the hanar/drell homeworld to catch up with him if we got to send him there at some point.

Samara as a potential enemy does sound intriguing if we were faced with that situation, but it would probably foolish on Samara's part if she tried to take on Shepard by herself especially in the middle of the invasion. At the very least we could encounter her on Thessia or on Illium (think we get to visit Illium again in ME3).

[Mr0TYuH]

Assuming it's accurate, the Belgian gamer magazine CHIEF had an interview with Casey Hudson where they reported, "Hudson maakte verder bekend dat Commander Shepards opgebouwde team uit het tweede deel in Mass Effect 3 uiteen is gevallen." In other words, the team from ME2 has fallen apart. I don't know what it means, but I would imagine we will not be getting the majority of our squadmates back from the beginning.

Completely agree in all situations, including Kasumi and Zaeed. What do they have to do with the Shadow Broker?

[TheOtherTheoG]

Miranda - Quit Cerberus at the end of ME2 - she'll probably be working as an Alliance operative, helping Shepard find out info about Cerberus later in the game, as a temporary squadmate, with the option of recruiting her permanently afterwards.

Jacob - Working for the Alliance, you may come across him - and the option to recruit him - later in the game.

Garrus - With you from the start, or at least from the first hour or so of the game. What else has he got to do, anyway?

Tali - Joins with you at the same time as Garrus. She'll take a large role in the Quarian/Geth conflict, and, at some point, might be offered a place on the Admiralty Board.

Mordin - Trying to solve the genophage on Sur'Kesh, gets injured at some point stopping him from fighting. Joins as the resident Normandy scientist, but not a crew member.

Jack - Might return as a temporary squadmate later in the game, possibly trying to take down Cerberus. I reckon she'll get killed during that mission, or there'll be a choice between saving either her or Miranda, like Virmire but less important.

Grunt - Starting to climb up the Urdnot ladder, an option of recruiting him later in the game when Tuchanka inevitably gets Reaper-ised.

Samara - Paragon Shep - gone back to Thessia to be... justicar-y. Makes a large cameo. Renegade Shep - trying to avoid Shep, for fear that, if they meet, she will have to kill you. Sends you an email, doesnt apear.

Morinth - On the run. You might accidentally come across her at some point, but just as a cameo.

Thane - On Kahje, looking after family before he dies. There might be a mission where you visit him and try and find a vaccine (note, not a cure) for Keplar's Syndrome, where he's a temporary squadmate. Needs to be an epic fight between dying Thane and Kai Leng, where Thane gets killed, giving you even more of a reason to hate Kai Leng.

Legion - On Rannoch, trying to promote peace between the Geth and Quarians. A temporary squadmate, with the option of recruiting him permanently.

Zaeed - Might make a small cameo if you downloaded him

Kasumi - Same as Zaeed. You also hear that, if you didnt romance Jacob, Jacob had a fling with Kasumi between the events of ME2 and 3.

[candidate88766]

Seeing as Shepard goes on trial, I can't see many members of your squad being with you at that start: Jack, Thane, Kasumi are criminals; Miranda, Jacob and the entire Cerberus crew have worked for a terrorist organisation; Legion is a Geth; none of them will want to present when Shepard is arrested or hands himself in. I imagine most will join you later in the game, depending on loyalty. Samara may leave as the mission is over and she may see Shepard as being against her code seeing as he is on trial for war crimes. I imagine you can persuade her to join later depending on choices made.

I agree with most of the points in the OP though.

[O Tucker]

Did you just say what you think will happen..its a bloody good mind you have that sounds pretty good

[CroGamer002]

^thx

[naledgeborn]

Not bad Mesina... not bad. Post one of your I approve pics for me.

[JeffZero]

I think Jacob should be aboard the Normandy in essentially the same location -- except he also doubles as the 'Alliance Requisitions Officer' of sorts through offering all kinds of fun add-ons to the confirmed-customizable weaponry of the game. He even gives cool gameplay tips and is a temporary squadmate in one mission and a cutscene-present soldier in a few. If you romanced him there'd be a lot more dialogue options available and maybe this is the one way to get him permanently.

No, it wouldn't please the hardcore Jacob fans completely, but that last bit might go a long way. In fact, I could almost see BioWare building your party's permanent squadmates in part based on who you've romanced. There will be several guaranteed-to-join-you characters, of course, but options like Jacob and Jack -- LIs with dedicated fandoms but not the most well-received squadmates across the broader spectrum of the install base -- might be changed around with regard to romancing.

It wouldn't be too terribly complicated (compared to some other speculations, anyway) given that at least those two have biotic abilities. Hell, so does Miranda for that matter.

[JeffZero]

Otherwise, many of Mesina's thoughts are highly in-line with mine. The Grunt aspect is something with which I'd admittedly not come upon, and I'm not entirely sure he'd do something quite that drastic re: the trial and not heavily consider the same path if you'd spared the Collector Base. I guess for players that did so he could just bring that up as 'further proof', but I don't know, Shepard's his Battlemaster. It's hard to imagine. (Then again, look at Horizon.)

I love the Thane idea and it's precisely what I've pictured before. The Tali/Legion thing is harsh but doable.

Mass Effect 2's squad deserves to be on the squad in 3 as permant squad mates simple as that . They are the ones who saved humanity in 2 . Not those 2 b*tches from horizon . Oh and espeically Miranda needs to be on the squad ,

I predict that, with the possible exception of Jacob (special forces), the Cerberus personnel will be kept under house-arrest/prison terms on suspicion of being, well, Cerberus.

And also as de facto hostages should Shepard go crazy again.

She could escape imprisonment when Reapers attack Earth, if she's on on Earth.

If not, then she's released after Shepard escapes from Earth.

Tis not just Shepard's jailbreak: it's the jailbreak of the crew as a whole! (With convenient deaths for any voice actor who didn't want to come back.)
