I actually doubt Mordin will be getting any squadmate time: look at his screenshots - same appearance whereas Garrus, Ashley, and Kaidan have gotten redesigns and tweaks. We've only seen Tali for a second so it'll probably be a placeholder and Legion's uniqueness (the N7 armor) is an important plot point in his arc.

Jack's getting a redesign so she'll be a squadmate for some of the time.

Plot armor endures a lot.

Yeah, it was impossible to kill her until the last segment.

Also, shameless self-promotion.

I hope the Krogan on the cover revealing multiplayer is Grunt. He really needs to come back. I'll be mad if he doesn't.

They shouldn't exclude ME2 characters just because they might be dead. If you lost a character in ME2, you don't get that squadmate...simple as that. It's like how you could of played ME2 without unlocking some of the squadmates.

Well, they're already getting the multiplayer backlash, so now would be the perfect time.

Yep but i bet they still won't say anything.

Eh, I like Vega so far.  But we're also getting that mysterious DLC guy, and probably another female squadmate as an alternative to Vega, and I'm pulling for a batarian.

I thought the news of a DLC character was debunked, did I miss an update?

Nope, it was pretty much re-confirmed.

[DeadpoolBub]

I can see Grunt, Jack, Miranda & Legion returning. I think Jack is pretty much confirmed, since I think someone said that she was getting a redesign.

I just want Grunt & Legion back damnit! If I can't get Zaeed & Thane just give me those two.

[Anacronian Stryx]

Well if you have more conversations with the returning characters in ME 3 than you did in ME 2 are they really sidelined?

Sure i guess some people will miss having them on the ship..just standing around doing nothing, But in the end it seems to me that it would be the amount of interaction that counts.

[DeadpoolBub]

I talked to everyone on the ship, well besides Jack since she never wanted to talk.

Realistically put; Do you think that Bioware would invest a great deal of time and effort, to grant one character a vital/significant role within the story, if he/she is dead..? All characters in Mass Effect 2, as squad-members, as much as I dislike, will get minor roles. ( Like Garrus, for example.. All the game he was in the middle of some calibrations, and his relevance was almost zero, he just filled the background and pleased the fans from the first game. )

Only way for a character in Mass Effect 2, to play a substantial role in Mass Effect 3 is trough a potential retcon, case the player in question decided to whack him. Obviously, retcons are never good, however Bioware done it plenty of times in their games ( Lately.. )

I do feel like Garrus will get a larger role in ME3 as he is the second hardest character to kill in the SM behind Miranda. No joke look at the statisics on the earlier comment "Harmless selfpromotion"  

All the Characters that played minor roles in ME2 will have bigger roles I think. Well at least: Garrus, Tali,  Mordin, Legion, Grunt, Miranda, Samara (When recruiting Asari), and maybe Kasumi with the greybox. The rest : Jack, Zaeed, Jacob, Thane, not so much.. unless thane helps you recruit Drell assassin's but I doubt it

[mineralica]

Speaking honestly, I'd expect them to be sidelined. When BioWare adds variables to squadmates that usually isn't going anywhere good (hi, Virmire and that two DA2 squadmate).

However, I'd say Miranda and Jacob would likely return - they're LI, and current squad list doesn't include Vanguard-like char and may not include Sentinel if you saved Ashley.

Rest of them?

Mordin - likely stay as cameo

Grunt - tank role is taken by James. Maybe stayed on Tuchanka to help Wrex?

Jack -  I honestly don't know. Having other biotic spec than Liara will be wonderful, and there are talks about her redesign, and she's LI... but there are too many humans already, and "adept" role is kinda covered, and she isn't among most popular squadmates.

Thane - leak from magazine implying that he's temporary. The sheer fact that LI may be temporary squadmate get me worried.

Samara - replaced by Liara. That's sad.

Legion - looks like cameo in demos.

Zaeed and Kasumi - were DLC, and I don't think there will be that many humans

[Gabey5]

yes and they should be, 12 was just too many.

[g0thiC_iCe_cReaM]

Aww, disappointing to hear about Kasumi, I kind of liked her, very cheery sort, very endearing demeanor.

But I'm starting teel like a fan of the wrong cast.

Welcome to the world of ME1 LI fans, back before ME2 was released, and it was announced that Ashley, Liara and Kaidan would not be squadmates.  You are getting as much sympathy as we were.  The general consensus was to suck it up and embrace the new.  Miranda is my favorite member of the ME2 cast, and I will definitely miss her if she's got a small role.  The only thing to do at this point is wait and see, but, as others have pointed out, the total cast from both games is huge now, and with new party members, it's getting to where something has to give.

I still hope that we will have some freedom to build our team.
5 Core squad members + ~5 free slots free to fill as we like.

Heh, but I'm losing hope for Miranda. We've already got two humans, and I'm expecting a new human female.

Personally, I think Vega is Bioware's apology for Jacob.

What they should be apologising for is the way femShep talks to the man. There was nothing essentially wrong with his character beyond his rude 'I don't have any more lines in the script at this time' dialogue.

[DeadpoolBub]

If Vega replaced Grunt.... Then he shall remain Forever Alone on the Normandy while everyone else gets fighting time.
