More armor? I'm pretty sure that'll get worked out. Helmets? Yeah those too. Now let's talk about visors. Different colors that can be changed to match the color scheme of the armor. Something lightweight and has benefits like scanning an enemies armor to show which shield sections are weakining. I've always wanted a purple visor. Sort of like a "Dark Angel" or any type of mythical archetype. Some light armor would add to the versatility of Shep's wardrobe. I'd also like the option to equip my team how I see fit. It's not about just changing the color either. Maybe it's about being more in control and having the option to really interact with my team on all levels. I'm sure someone has already mentioned the lighting scheme. I'll reiterate. More lighting options, not just on the back, waist, and shoulders. Well that's a little much so how about just more colors to choose from. But the visors can be totally raw if offered. Grunt's and Miranda's alternative costumes with added lighting and visors can attest to this.

ok hear me out, I know there are lots of people on here that probably hate the game, but I think that a halo reach like system would be awesome. A base suit without all the frills and then through the game shepard finds/buys pieces to add on to his suit. That way those of us who want a sleek non walking tank look would be happy and if you want that bulky heavy trooper look add all the armor you want to your suit. say you have an armored chest plate (think aegis vest from me2) that adds health and increases power damage and you have a light stealth chest (like jacob or a smaller zaeed chest piece) that adds shields and reduces power recharge time. sort of a trade off to suit your play style. What do you guys think ?

It's already sort of like this; if you look bewteen the plates in ME2 you can see some kind of dark suit, and then the armor you buys just goes over that. As for the heavy vs light look, I think that if Bioware is even glancing at these forums, they should pick up that the general consensus is more armor and more armor diversity (light/medium/heavy).

I agree with more options...
I want to customize the color of the lights, the underarmor padding, the plates themselves, the paint (color and scheme), the helmet (visor color, rebreather color, armor color, lights), and the omni-tool/biotic amp (say yes to Shepard Pink Omni-tool!!!). I would also love to be able to customize the Drone (if it returns) and the sentinel armor (if it returns) in the same way that I customize my omni-tool.

Specifically, I would love to be able to put all the color schemes of my ME2 full set armor on other sets (Terminus, Inferno, Blood Dragon, Cerberus, etc.) and to be able to put many of the enemies' patterns on my armor (love the eclipse armor design...would look amazing with black and red coloring).

More armor options please! Terminus set, Inferno Set, Collector Set, Spectre Armor, N7 Gear...let me put them into different parts to mix and match. Add more Options to the entire series. Allow me to use all of my purchased armor from ME2 to help customize me in ME3. I do not want to repurchase my Cerberus Hood or my Capacitor Helmet.

I want Bioware to go Crazy with the amount of options they enable us to have in the final installment of this epic series.

Hmmm, so I wouldn't mind some armor options that incorporate some design elements from the other alien cultures. Sort of like what was done for the collector armor. For example:

Geth: a streamlined suit with tubes and glowy bits, etc., sort of like what Saren had in ME1.
Krogan: heavy armor that covers the back of the head/upper shoulders, plus a badass face covering.
Quarian: a quarian-like face shield (so we can be as coy as Tali).
etc.

I liked mass effect 2 armor customization but the whole armor system was lacking RPG elements. The only statistics were shields, health, charge speed and armmo capacity and still they were restricted to maximum of 5% per each piece...

Thats why mass effect 1 armors were better.

Mixing these elements me1 armor patterns and me2 armor customization would be best.
