@Pax: Ashley is LtC? I think I've missed this part. Based on Earth demo where Anderson calls her "Lieutenant!" she may be 2nd Lieutenant (jump on 2 ranks totally from Gun. Chief), EDIT: or 1st Lt. or Staff Lt. - seems even more likely since Anderson calls LtC Shepard "Commander", not "Lieutenant".

About "Major Alenko is Kaidan's father" - I don't mind family input in this form, but since Ashley got promoted after ME2, why not Kaidan?

At about 6:30 in the video, before the briefing, after they say goodbye to Vega.  Line is "Lt. Commander? How did it go in there?"  Unless Anderson is referring to Shepard at that point?  I may have misinterpreted it.

Edit: Also, about the Major Alenko reference: Taking everything in this beta with salt, as it was unfinished and rough.  The demo had the player with Ashley alive, and therefore Kaidan dead.  For Anderson to reference a Major Alenko and have it make sense, it could be a glitch - wrong dialog dropped into the scene, understandable for the rough demo.  An alternate explanation could be a reference to a Major Alenko that is not Kaidan - possibly his father, as Kaidan said his father served but was retired.  This father Alenko is, at best, plot spackle piecing together a line from the leaked demo with references in ME1.  It's a far reach, but it crossed my mind, hence throwing it in.  :/  Honestly IMO it's the first, a dropped-in wrong dialog.  Or there are other logical explanations we haven't thought of.

There wasn't anything Kaidan related leaked besides a "Major Alenko" line, which in itself had to of been a bug since Ash was alive

Mmhmm, now let me ask you this. Which one is the simpler answer?

It's aliens.  Not saying it's aliens, but it's aliens.  :alien:

99.9% sure it's wrong dialog.  Just threw that other idea out there because of the incongruity.

Ah, huge thank you. Now when I irritated everyone with squeeing, postponed everything to Monday and got home, I'll check what I can find and probably make some conspiracy theories.

Ashley is really LtC now? How many time passed since H-mission, a year? Four ranks in a year, that was fast, girl;)

In regards to the 'Major Alenko' bit - I'm a little lost on it.
In ME2, Anderson says he's been promoted to Staff (full) Commander.
So why the change to Major? They're both equal, in terms of rank, so does this mean he's transferred to ground forces? (since, if I'm not mistaken, they're the ones that would use that rank)

MAJOR SPOILER REFERENCES BELOW!!!  Spoiler space included.

It's probably a bug - the demo was very rough.  They likely inserted the wrong bit of dialog.  Animation was bad, graphics were missing.  At first I thought "well, since Kaidan's dead in this person's playthough, maybe it's a reference/callback to Kaidan's father?"  Yet that small snippet of dialog is likely something between Anderson and the VS, whomever it may be.  Anderson says to the person on the other line that "you should contact the Normandy" and that they'll meet at the landing zone.

Yet, it is a pretty major (get it, he's a pretty Major?  :::groan, eyeroll:::)  spoiler.  Not the least, that Kaidan was promoted 3 ranks in what, 4 years?  What's even more surprising, is that Ashley is now a Lt. Commander, a jump of 5 ranks.

Edit: oh jeez, ToP?!  BRB, gotta find an image

Why is Ashley even on the Normandy? I'm not jumping on the major bandwagon mostly because lietenent Alenko rolls off the tongue better.:D

It's a default thing, since they're using Sheploo for the trailers/demos so far.
(if they used FemShep - you'd most likely see Kaidan)

No I meant HOW'd she get there. She's not a part of the crew and was just in the building a few minutes prior.

BTW, as to my post about the rank of Major, I just realized I goofed.
Major is equal to Lt. Commander, so that makes even less sense since it would be a step back for Kaidan.

Oh, if you listen to the part where Shep & Anderson go outside, Anderson says Ashley was on her way to the Normandy. (IIRC, they were taking a different route to look for injured personal)

Wiki (and, I believe, ingame codex) thinks that Major corresponds to Captain.

And I just found one more major in leaked vids and extremely happy about this person getting a promotion=]

Short version: Microsoft messed up with demo status and made it available on XBL.

Long version:

Jesse Houston wrote...

Hello everyone!

As most of you know by now, this evening an accidental leak occurred of some early Mass Effect 3
beta code.  Microsoft has advised us that through human error at their
end, content which was meant for internal beta testing was flagged
incorrectly and released to individuals who had signed up for the beta
of the Xbox Live dashboard update.  It has since been taken down and
deactivated.

We’d like to stress that the leaked code is in a
rough, unfinished state and was not meant for public release. The
content is not final, and is not reflective of the quality of the
finished, polished game due for release on March 6, 2012 (March 9 in
Europe).

One feature that was present in this early build is a
set of game play modes that are in development. In the beta code they
are referred to as “action mode”, “story mode” and “RPG mode”. We want
to stress that these features are still in the early stages of
development and will receive considerable iteration and refinement. These
modes are designed to give players an even finer degree of control over
their game experience than ever before.  Whether it be someone who
finds the combat difficult but wants to experience the amazing story,
someone who wants to focus on the action and combat game play, or fans
who want the rich, story-driven RPG Mass Effect experience they’ve come to love – Mass Effect 3 will support all of these options.  We’ll have more info in the days ahead!

Lol my bad, been so long since I played ME1 that I forgot about that.
I still wonder, though, why he went from serving aboard a ship to ground forces.
(since he's not a Captain)

Thanks for the responses guys. That text about the different modes sounds good to me as I'm a story person. I'm taking that it's just a complicated easy to hardmode....?
