Wasn't there an old thread that had listed all of the planets that this bit of footage had revealed or did I just dream that up? It would be handy if folks could screenshot planets so we can try to guess what they are based on a still image.

There was, but only for half of pics.

That's a really good idea.

I still hope they're gonna cut down all that crap that made ME2's Map so damn overbloated.

Thanks for the footage

Thanks for the vid. I've been looking for that footage.

Me too... for a long time.

What made it overbloated? I was perfectly OK with it.

[LGTX]

I want to be able to prioritize and turn certain types of popup notifications on/off. And no permanent popups, please... other than that, ME2's map system was fine.

Except the whole flying the Normandy part... I mean, it IS a map, right?

Also, am I crazy, or doesn't that siver floating sphere look a whole lot like the Prothean artifact from the Firewaler mission?

Found the Link

You're not, it looks like that. And both look like the mysterious orb from one of the UNC worlds in ME1, where it was said the orb had a 'key hole' of some kind but you didn't have a key and the orb was a big mystery that looked like it was very deliberately left unresolved.

If Shep helps the consort but insists upon some type of payment, she give him the key. The key unlocks some "ancestral memory" of a caveman/woman being visited by the Protheans, if I recall correctly.

Yes, I know, was just saying initially the orb gave you 'you need a key' sign, many people missed it. It is very interesting the vision referred to Prothean on Mars studying humans and the entire event has a flag that carries over to ME2. I just can't imagine that the orb mystery wouldn't be solved on Mars in ME3, almost sure the orb from the video in OP is on Mars (and contains Prothy )!

No, you get the trinket by fixing things with the Elcor diplomat before going back to see the Consort.

My apologies, then. Anyway, the origional point is something we clearly agree on -- yes, it looks Prothy.

Painstakingly accurate as usual, didymos1120.

No need to apologize ;P We're all here for our Prothy <3333333333

[Leonia]

If Prothy isn't an LI, I will be sorely disappointed.

OK. The footage is a great find. Now let's put it to some use. (Will add to this as time allows).

1. The opening scene shows three systems tagged on the galaxy map. "Krogan DMZ" gives three missions: "Counter-Attack Reapers," "Search for Survivors," or "Support Aratakh Company." I'm assuming that last one is a military unit and not a research corporation.

A second tag on the galaxy map says the "Crescent Nebula" is a "Conflict Zone." Nothing more.

A system with it's name cut off in that particular screenshot merely says "Investigate," or some such.
=========
The second scene is just a cutscene of the Normandy (or Normandy-class frigate, just to be rigorous) using a Mass Relay -- which works. No a surprise, really, since it wouldn't be much of a game if Mass Relays were rendered inoperable by the Reapers.
========
The third scene (about 7 seconds in) is a planet view of Tuchanka. It gives the three options given before. "The City" has the company support mission. "Downed Vessel" has the "Search for Survivors" mission and the "The Shroud" has the "Counter-attack Reapers" mission. (Planet notes to the side mention a "Shroud" artificially created to keep a zone's temperature habitable.) The user clicks "The Shroud." We get a view of (as far as I can tell) one Reaper presiding over a truly desolate scene. Nothing but rubble.
======
The next scene is a lab or control room that could be anywhere. The room itself is vaguely reminiscent of the satellite dish control room in "Overlord," but that doesn't confirm anything. Apparently, though, the control room does overlook a landing pad or "silo" that reminds me of the "spider hole" in another video where an airstrike by the Normandy rouses a Reaper. However, the surrounding terrain appears different and not as arid, if memory serves. Also, you can tell the "control room" seen before is over this "silo" because the mountain in the background is the same.
========
Next we go to stacked modular units with (presumably) breathable air since doors are open. High rises are in the background. Brown and "dry" looking place. No damage visible, so presumably this place isn't attacked yet.
=======
About 21 seconds in, we get to some ruins, then just a couple of seconds later an apparently unrelated artifact reveal. Is that another shimmering Prothean Orb? Then at 24 seconds we get what definitely looks like a shimmering orb with a brick-like, x-shaped structure around it. I'm going to call this the "Lego Orb" until somebody comes up with a better name. The Lego Orb appears to be in a room with an opening in the ceiling or some other light source.
======
We get a nice view of Garrus, Shep and Tali striding purposely forward and then, there's Legion and -- what sure looks to me like Admiral Daro'Xen vas Moreh, the Admiralty Board member and would be hacker of Geth. Between them is a 3-D graphical display of a planet, but what's the read stuff in the middle, or is that just backlighting from a panel behind Legion's point of view?

Theres some scenes where Legion's showing Shep some stuff on screens, then we see somebody who look a whole lot like fellow admiralty board member Adm. Han'Gerrel vas Neema. In the foreground is a 3-D graphical display of what appears to be Quaran ships in orbit over a planet.

=========
The next scene, about 36 seconds in, is the shrouded figure whom I believe to be the Salarian member of the Council, on board the Normandy with Shep talking to him. Then some more ruins, and that's it.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who thought that room looked like the satellite control room from Overlord!

Who's the guy at 0:36?

A salarian.  Going by the robe, it's the Councilor.

Agree. Pardon me for quoting myself:

Thanks. I didn't see this the first time around.

[Phaedon]

I stole the footage and used it in Condensed Mass before it was cool.

EDIT: Kidding aside, the livestream these were taken from is really ooooold.

EDIT2: Actually, the fact that the people had lost the live stream explains why these "More shooting, less roleplaying" threads are being started these days.

No need to state the obvious. Fiery said that in the OP.

I know. I am just surprised at the thread responses so far. Hence my second edit.
