Look at ME1: Full body armour in combat, casual clothes on the Normandy and butt nekkid in sex scenes.
That's how it should be
This. A thousand times this.
A thousand times a thousand times. What the squaddies have and what Ash is shown in are fine for on the ship, but when the bullets are flying and you're in hazardous environments or the vacuum of space hardsuits all around.

Also, to the people calling it a ****ty attire; Thane and Tali wear form-fitting clothes in combat too. OMG THEY MUST BE ****S AMIRITE?!
Well considering how Tali's willing to jump you with little to no encouragement...(I kid of course). Thane's outfit
is ridiculous in combat (it's a leather coat) and Tali's been wearing the same thing since ME1, there's a logical reason for it to be the way it is (loose fitting clothes could snag and tear especially when working as an engineer). The reason there's an issue is because it's Ash.
If this were an entirely new character you wouldn't hear a peep beyond the odd grumbling about a Miranda clone. What she's wearing could be something similar to Asari Commando leathers (what they wore in ME1) and could fit a new character with a similar fighting style. Ash doesn't dress like that. She doesn't dodge bullets she soaks them up until she can blast the poor bastard with her boomstick. She's a tank, heavy armor and heavy weapons, not a Humvee.
As for people saying it might not be her in-combat outfit every other image I've seen has shown characters apparently combat ready (Garrus, Kaidan, Liara) so the concern that that's all we're getting is entirely valid.
