Oh, guys. I don't know how accurate this is, or that it's proven to be true.. but this looks pretty interesting!

http://www.desktopne...?nocache=534427

A full scale Galaxy map from the locations of ME1, ME2 ánd it actually includes worlds like the Asari, Turian, Volus, Drell and Quarian homeworlds. Nothing from the Salarians, although that may be in a new system, or a previous unentered cluster..


Wait... MEsuperfan, would you mind re-checking the ME3´s Galaxy Map? I´m not saying that wallpaper is true, but if it is... the Elcor homeworld might be guaranteed. Oh, and Sarcharon, how do you download a wallpaper? I need to study it.



What do you mean? Did you notice something new?

EDIT:  Ah, I see what you mean. The new location close to the DMZ might be Dekuuna or Irune. But that map is probably just a fan's assumptions. There is nothing to indicate the exact location of either the Elcor or the Volus homeworld. Not even in codexes.

Oh, and one more thing. Must be wild speculation, but in the video previously mentioned, you see a hologram of something, and its ``core´´ looks like it´s going wild. This might imply a revisit to the Far Rim.


I... think that goes a bit to far...:)

It's around Far Rim, the Pheonix Massing - these are in Geth space, and do you know what else is in Geth space? Rannoch! So yeah, my guess is that it's the cluster Rannoch's in.

It's just a hologram... that appeared for a fraction of a second...
We cant know for sure.

Okay... it has way too many writing errors to be considered true. But... I did tecnically say that the map might not be true.

Well, yeah. So, not adding. :)

Thanks. Oh, and that Shrike Abyssal/Valhalla Threshold debate? It is Shrike Abyssal. Just bought the star chart in ME2.

The Shrike Abyssal clearly needs a planet with ancient tombs that run backwards in time.

I've compiled a list of the clusters we've visited in the last two games, and the points of interest therein. I've bolded the ones from the OP. Clearly there will be new clusters in the Galaxy map for Thessia, Palaven, Rannoch, and Sur'Kesh. So, based on this list, what other previously visited locations are likely/desired?

Argos Rho — Side Missions Only
Armstrong Nebula — Side Missions Only
Artemis Tau — Therum: Recruit Liara
Attican Beta — Feros and Eletania
Caleston Rift — Side Missions Only
Crescent Nebula — Illium
Eagle Nebula — Korlus: Recruit Okeer/Grunt
Exodus Cluster — Eden Prime
Far Rim — Haestrom: Recruit Tali
Gemini Sigma — Side Missions Only
Hades Gamma — Side Missions Only
Hades Nexus — Side Missions Only
Hawking Eta — Derelict Reaper (and Derelict Reaper-Killing Weapon)
Horse Head Nebula — Noveria
Hourglass Nebula — Purgatory Prison Ship: Recruit Jack; Shadow Broker Base
Ismar Frontier — Zorya (Eldfell-Ashland refinery of Zaeed's loyalty mission)
Kepler Verge — Side Missions Only
Krogan DMZ — Tuchanka 
Local Cluster — Earth/Luna, Mars
Maroon Sea — Side Missions Only
Minos Wasteland —  Side Missions Only
Nubian Expanse — Pragia, Cerberus presence
Omega Nebula — Omega, Omega 4 Relay, Alchera (Normandy SR-1 crash site)
Pangaea Expanse — Ilos
The Phoenix Massing — Heretic Station and Project Overlord
Pylos Nebula — Side Missions Only
Rosetta Nebula — 2175 Aiea: Hugo Gernsback crash site
Sentry Omega — Virmire
Serpent Nebula — The Citadel
Shadow Sea — Horizon
The Shrike Abyssal —  Side Missions Only
Sigurd's Cradle —  Side Missions Only
Styx Theta —  Side Missions Only
Titan Nebula —  Side Missions Only
Vallhallan Threshold — Migrant Fleet (as of 2185)
Viper Nebula — Aratoht/Alpha Relay (destroyed and no longer on mass relay network)
Voyager Cluster —  Side Missions Only, Cerberus presence

Something tells me that this game is gonna be HUGE.

I need to calm myself down a little and remember how promising DA2 looked. Argh, don't get hopes up, don't get hopes up, don't get hopes up...

Above we see....

-Exodus Cluster: Eden Prime and Terra Nova (!)
-Horse head Nebula: Noveria (!!) EDIT: We may also visit Minuteman Station. A cerberus facility located there.
-Serpent Nebula: Citadel (confirmed, I believe)
-Crescent Nebula: Illium. (confirmed as well. A mission called "Conflict Zone" might take place there)
- Hawking Eta: Shepard found the derelict reaper. Possible key to the Reapers' destruction?
-Ninmah: New location. A mission called "Investigate Rumors" takes place there
-Minos Wasteland: On the planet Aequitas, Shepard finds and destroys a Reaper Indocrination device. Possible connection? Also, Invictus (That Turian jungle planet with the deadly virus...   remember?)
-Omega Nebula: Omega Station and SR1's crash site. Possible revisit?
-Sigurd's Cradle: The human colony of Watson it there. On it moon, Frankin, the assigment "Jevelin Missiles" took place. Other than that nothing special in ME2. But we'll see....
-The Shrike Abyssal or The Vallhallan threshold (faintly visible behind Crescent Nebula): Garvug and The Migrant Fleet were in The Vallhallan threshold in ME2. Probably a flotilla-asociated quest there. The Shrike Abyssal had only a bunch of Volus planets. Nothing remarkable for now...
-New Location. (just a bit to the left of the Krogan DMZ. We dont know absolutly anything about it). May be the location of the Turian homeworld (Palaven) as it fits the descriptions from the codexes. It could also be the location of the Salarian homeword due to its proximity to krogan space.


Interesting Facts (slightly off-topic).

-The new cluster, Ninmah, is probably named after Ninhursag, the earth and mother goddess in Sumerian mythology. She had a lot of names, one of them is Ninmah (Great Queen).
-Hawking Eta, is named after Stephen Hawking
-Omega Nebula, Horse Head Nebula and Crescent Nebula are all real.
-The Valhallan Threshold is named after Valhalla. An equivalent of heaven in Norse mythology.
-Sirgud's Cradle is named after Sigurd. A legendary hero in Norse mythology.



I found those by comparing the galaxy maps from both games. We dont know anything for sure and I think that we should treat this news as just rumors. Remeber that we are 9 months away from the release and anything can change.
Anyways, I am personally exited about Eden Prime and Terra Nova as well as Noveria. I think we did not see enough of eden Prime and as for Terra Nova, we only saw it from high orbit (bring down the sky). Noveria... I dunno... I just didn't have enough of that planet! heh!

So, what do you think? Big news right?:P

I'll say nay, because the existence of a cluster does not imply we will be able to revisit past worlds... or even past solar systems.

Would you mind telling me exactly why? In ME2, the Hawking Eta had the Century system from ME1.

All others are way too significant to be even mentioned. I´m pointing only less significant locations.

Just a thought: Isn't Kepler's Verge near that circle that could be Hawking Eta or Styx Eta and is it just me or is that bar that curves to "Eta" circle covering or partially hiding another one?:?

Great analysis & map, looks very accurate. 1 question though, how do we know about Ninmah's location?
