Technically, Garrus was a sniper, but not an infiltrator. He was more of a soldier, although having tech+combat skills would somehow make him qualify for Infiltrator; however, I sincerely don't picture a cloaked Turian. ¿Cloakless Infiltrator? Could have, say, Overload, Marksman, and some new skill.

Turian Females would be no differant looking from the males.

only good that would come out of it is having a redundant class like with humans so you can have one with one setup and the other with a differant setup.

for instance. My male Vanguard uses a Power Nova Setup but my Female Vanguard uses a Repeated Nova Setup.

The Male Vanguard is basically the typical living Biotic Explosion and does massive damage and just goes from Charge to Nova to Charge at speed.

The female is like a living and constant Shockwave. Charges into a group and uses Nova 2+ times and can often chain up to 5 Nova or more before needing to charge again.

I also want female salarians, female krogan and female batarians!
More women everywhere!

Tell that to the quarians. Their females and males are different in terms of both looks and powers.

My argument in favor of female aliens is the following:

They created a naked Yagh model for the game. A naked Yagh model. It's there, you can see them in SurKesh.

Why would they be unable to create female versions of the aliens we already know?

It's simple:

1) Contact the artist or art team that designed Turians

2) Tell them to give you some possible Turian female designs

3) Choose one of those designs.*

4) Hire voice actress.

5) Add cool Turian voice distorsion to her lines.

Done. Female Turians.

Also applicable to Krogan and Drell. Salarians would be cool, too, but I understand why they're unlikely and rare and I accept it.

*IMPORTANT: Make sure it's not a lazy and/or stupid design, like that cheap stock photo manipulation that was "Tali". 


The biggest obstacle is the fact ME3 has two seperate teams. A team that designs Multiplayer and a team that designs Singleplayer. We would have to see female Turians in Singleplayer before they would bring them over into multiplayer.

Also someone asked for the link to where Bioware had said that turians males and females look the same.
Here you go.

Similar and the same are two different things, though. 'Hard to differentiate' means small changes, not no changes.

All of those changes are under the armor, how about that? Give your turian a female name and you're set.

That would make them essentially indistinguishable, which is not the case. Again, similar, not the same.

EDIT: This entire argument of course is based on the idea that the 'masseffect' PR twitter is a true source of canon, which is debatable.

So when my turian shouts in a very male voice "SHIELDS DOWN" I'm supposed to go 'lalala not listening!!1! you are a girl!!1!!' hmm?

I'm all for very little to no differences between the genders, because that would make sense seeing how their society is built up on military and everyone serves, both man and woman, and that means they are physically equal and don't have the silly gender roles like humans. Even Garrus comments on 'human women having a hard time in the military' in ME1, when he speaks to Ashley about her service record. This points toward turian women not having any of those problems.

But I want the voice difference so that I'm not just fooling myself. Dalatrass has a whiny old female voice, and Eve has a very strong but still female voice. Yet they both basically look the same as the males. So turian females should get their separate voices too.

I support females being represented more in general. I mean I'm a dude and at first it didn't bother me but as the games progressed and the universe got more fleshed out..yea. Began to notice. Batarian Females. I get it. Isolated from galactic society. Salarian females. 10% of the population. Ok. Drell we don't know enough about. But Turian sticks out like a sore thumb. And with krogans in the war and a genophage possibly cured, even krogan females might start picking up guns. Ex Cerberus deserves a female too. I approve of this thread

If they get new powers like the male turians, then sure! why not. But as model changes like human females? No thanks.

How do you know the Turian female voice is any different? It does not have to be different. Specially seeing that female Turians are also in the military/C-sec it is perfectly possible that we have talked to some femTurians while not noticing it. If they introduce them I will be perfectly fine with it, but I don't think they will do it.

Some little change from the male model wouldn't hurt, like a little tweaking, eventually making them thinner. And even then, if they are this similar to males (the good reason from Bioware to not implement them because of memory or whatever) just give them female voices, and roll. =]

Yah, of course they could have the same voice, but then why even female Krogans and salarians get the chance to have a different voice from the males?
It wouldn't be this hard to do some female voices, and giving them different armors from the males, taken from the SP.

Of course it wouldn't be hard; but look at it this way: we are supposed to have encountered Turian females throughout the trilogy (or at least there is no mention of females being secluded or anything), while Krogans and Salarians keep their females safe and sound (Salarians because they are very rare and Krogans... well, we all know it), so they probably wanted to give them some distinction.

 If they add them as Infiltrators, Engineers, Vanguards, or Adepts, that's fine. But please, not another female human class debacle. Even the quarians make me wary... I do hope that the male's powers are unique, enough so that they're not just a reskin designed to appease those crying for male quarians.

Otherwise it would be a huge waste. It would throw the potential for a unique, interesting class out the window, in favor of people who want to play the exact same thing with slightly different proportions and a generic female voice instead of a generic male voice.

I approve about that, Garrus wasn't an infiltrator, as well as Thane, the only infiltrator teammate we got in the 3 games was actually Kasumi, the only one using a Tactical cloak.
Technically, Garrus is a "Soldier engineer", while Thane is more of an adept.
However, I can really imagine some Turians with a cloak system, after all, they are the biggest military force in the galaxy, and scouts are parts of this efficiency.

Would be a good way to introduce females imo. Female turian infiltrator which can cloak, member of the Turian spec ops, and that's why we never saw them as Shepard.
