We may see Quarians without masks. Whether that would include Tali or not was left unsaid.

Quarians plural? Oh then it will probably be if you negotiate a paragon peace threaty between the Quarians and the Geth and they resettle their homeworld.... or you help them to reconquer their homeworld in a renegade way. And probably the most happiest place to be for the Talimancers ;-)

You have probably just saved Bioware filing a restraining order against me, I have seriously been trying to figure out about the female turian thing for DAYS now. I can now, hopefully, relax.

Also, yay! Garrus is finished with his callibrations!

Let's hope so. Or that we can renegade interupt him if he tries it again.

Well Caoila, let me respond a bit.

First to everyone who seems to be angry with Caoila's opinion. Stop it. His (or her) opinion is valid and brought up some good points, especially about the actual game play, turrey, cover, etc. This was not simply some hate filled rant, it was a pretty honest critique of the whole experience.

That said, I do have a couple of rebuttals
1 - "awesome omni blades" not being remade for EU. We made a huge batch of these to use world wide and shipped a large amount over to Gamescom. We could have not sent any, but we thought they ere fun, so we sent them. Making hundreds of thousands of these, we chose one release date. Sorry you didn't like it, but thats why it was like that. We DID make exclusive Gamescom posters with a Reaper attacking Cologne, but you didn't remember to call that out.
2- Picking on the volunteer in the Shepard armor is pretty low. Lets see you stand for 10 hours a day in costume and always have a smile on your face when someone wants a picture with you. I think he did a pretty good job a and certainly wouldn't want to do it for him.
3 - The "crap" video you saw. It started with a recap video of what had happened in ME 1 and 2 (narrated by Martin Sheen who recorded it specially for these demos) and was followed by a mission briefing by EDI to explain who was in your party and where you were/what you were doing. I'm sorry you didn't like it, but it was meant for all visitors including those who had not played ME1 or 2.
4 - Not finishing. Not everyone does. You got in quickly and should consider yourself lucky. There are people who are waiting up to 5 hours to play. If we game everyone enough time to finish before starting the next group, the wait would be MUCH longer, and that is just unfair.Again, I'm sorry you didn't finish, but I am also here at Cologne and have seen people finish before the time tuns out. There is a big monitor on the wall of the room and everyone gets the same 15 minute countdown before being moved out for the next group. That way it is the same for everyone.

I do think you have some valid points about the demo its self (and computer sensiivity, which I will investigate), but some of the points you brought up rankled a bit, so I thought I should explain.

Thank you for actually responding. When I left the demo Box I actually got the Omniblade and the Poster, so when I finally left the hall and came out to a space with more room I had the chance to take a look at the poster. 
It's the one with the two sides right? One one side the ME3 Box Cover art and on the other side I simply saw a reaper and I thought - I didn't take a good look - London Oo. 
Shame on me, I live in Cologne for 27 years and didn't realize it was supposed to be Cologne on that Poster... so I threw it away since I had to go by U-Bahn and imagined it to be full and let's face it: it's nerdy to run around with a game poster ^^ But I actually asked a group in front of the Trash cans if they would want it before that ; ) They didn't want it...
So I think that you put Cologne on the poster was actually a nice touch but why didn't those dudes at the booth tell it to us? Just like they didn't tell us that there was a monitor with a time limit. If I had known how much time I have I would have wasted less time choosing powers for everyone, reading what powers there are and just looking at the scenery in the game but played more.
And seriously: I can't imagine anyone who isn't already hooked on the ME series takes up to 5 hours of his time to wait to play a demo of a game for 15 minutes so the 5 minute exposition video was still a waste of time in my eyes.
And don't get me wrong: I'm not trying to pick on the dude in the N7 armor, I'm trying to pick on you for letting him do that. Like I already pointed out: It was hot in the hall and last I checked styrofoam is an Isolator, so he had it worse than anyone else. Heads up to him for putting up with that for ten hours. BUT since I interpreted it like this: He was supposed to be Shepard, I was pissed.
So choosing someone with a little resemblance in the face but no resemblance beside that  was a stupid move. 
Shepard is a strong and muscle packed badass, he's the best humanity has to offer and with all respect to the dude that smiled the whole time in his costume: I didn't see that in him.

And in regards to the mouse sensivity: It was - for me - unplayable high, but I'm a low sense gamer and I think I changed my sensivity to 0.3 or 0.4 in the config file of ME2 while I already have my mouse at a sens of 1.6 in my system software ( of 10 possible points) while the mouse works with 800 dpi I think.
So my mouse moves in glacial speed ^^
Others might be able to play with the sensivity but I sure had my problems, up to the point where I had no control at all. So I basically just relied on powers and got up real close to not be able to miss while shooting ; )

Before entering the demo room they show you a video that briefly explains the story and some of the races, so new people dont go so blind to play
I believe that one have been not shown in the media

The Martin Sheen-narrated video has been posted online.

A Martin Sheen-narrated video was posted online at some point, but this may not be the same thing.

Was it this one?

I so love Martin Sheen.

[Siven80]

Lots of good info on thatGiantbomb link, though im not keen on the following one

"You will be able to change class if you import your ME2 Shepard to ME3. Though you will have to start from Lvl 1 while kept class will get Import+ perks."

While i like that you can change class ala ME2, i'm not keen on being penalized for it if i only have a couple of save imports.

Yes, i think that was pretty much the first half of the video, the rest was one with EDI explaining races, cerberus and that Liara and Garrus volunteer for the mission

[Pompiliu92]

Ok saw the first half, I want the other one with EDI as well please

- About the female of other races, i understood that there will be female turians, but how was said give the impression will not be much

- Characters of the novels will show up for first time ingame, describing the character as a badass that accidentaly was confirmed as male

- ME3 will have important and difficult choices to be made, and will be a lot of them

- You can play as "evil" if you want, but you have to accept the consecuences involved

- Squadmates interactions are better, they will not be always lock in their Normandy spot (like Miranda in her office in M2), they will gather together, speak with eachother about the situation after missions, share or not opinions, etc. Plus a "cool feature" that they would not speak about

- If one of your squadmates died, for example Garrus in ME2, there will not be a random reemplacement to them in ME3

What would be cool and add even more depth, in my opinion, is if in certain points in conversation(if even very brief) is in regards to a certain character's death in ME2. Shepard or someone in the crew could say(for example, if Garrus died) "Garrus used to say....etc." You know, a reference to those who are gone. Just a thought.

Yep it makes perfect sense for a Tali and/or Quarian reveal there.  Her father promised her a home on their Homeworld and the chance to breath it's air (I think).

[ZenJestr]

yea, but she also said that it'd taken years of gene therapy for them to be able to live without masks on Rannoch....they will most likely be able to do so within her lifetime...but not within the time frame of ME3, I think...

[Ophiskc]

Maybe the revealing of quarians will come in the games of the ones who get a bad result for this race (involving broken helmets)

Wait, are we going to see ME3 at PAX Prime next week?

Well, BioWare and EA are sponsors of PAX, so I'd imagine so.

Gamescom was great. I was in all those closed panels and that alone was worth it. I thought I just toss this in here as it ended now.

Did you happen to play as the engineer class? I am dying to read about their current talent list and description of abilities.

Well...that made three of us. I looked it up and the closest definition I found is Software Development Kit (SDK)

Edit:
@CaolIla  have the same definition in his post so that's it
