Hey that was a pretty nice fake-DLC. Shepard is the catalyst, neither is aware of this. Not even the player. Real Shepard died ont he citadel.

And in ME4 nicknamed "Mass Shift" you travel inside a Reaper instead of the normandy. Pretty badass;)

It's very much fake. This was before the extended cut and people were more pissed about the endings than they are now, which is why people wanted to believe it was true.

It's fake, some things are off in comparison to me3 main story. Besides I can also create pastebin account then crate some fake crap and call myself Bioware worker.

I remember when this first was "leaked" and no one believed it back then. I remember something about having an actual hanar as a squadmate as well as a mini-elcor. Also this was leaked by a lighting technician, despite the fact that the game is still in pre-production and at the time they would have no need for devs like that yet.

The lightning technician aspect of the story could make sense since they are transitioning to a new engine. Maybe they wanted to be prepared.

But yeah, this story has BS written all over it.

Sorry slightly off-topic, but the Mass Shift story was interesting but flawed. For me the original ending (ignoring Shep's fate etc) was more interesting. No spoilers just would have liked the destruction of certain 'elements' of ME universe to be permanent, with the fourth game introducing new type of space travel based less on Citadel tech and Relay tech.

And the whole ending/ME4 starting point thing being mentioned I still stand by my original thought. The original ME team have finished with the series for the most part, meaning the new DLC is the last. However I still think that there will be something released by the new team before ME4 which will somehow make the endings more universal to allow ME4 to have same basic origin story (if set post ME3). Akin to how DA origins effects the game storyline of DA2.

The next game is not "ME4", Chris had a good post about it in the other ME forum:

To call the next game Mass Effect 4 or ME4 is doing it a disservice and seems to cause a lot of confusion here. We have already said that the Commander Shepard trilogy is over and that the next game will not feature him/her. That is the only detail you have on the game. I see people saying "well, they'll have to pick a canon ending". No, because the game does not have to come after. Or before. Or off to the side. Or with characters you know. Or yaddayaddayadda. Wherever, whenever, whoever, etc will all be revealed years down the road when we actually start talking about it.

I do not call the game ME4 when I talk about it ever, bucause that makes people think of it more as "what happens after Mass Effect 3" rather than "what game happens next set in the Mass Effect Universe", which is far more accurate at this point. Obviously fans are going to speculate content, character and story until we actually reveal details in the years or months to come as you have almost no actual details, just don't get bogged down in "well how are they going to continue ME3...".

It means that, for all intents and purposes, the trilogy is done - the next game will be something different entirely. It doesn't rule out that it'll be set after ME3, but if I had to bet money on it, I'd say it won't be.

I read that before and understand, what I mean is that if it is set after ME3 it will go DA2 way with importing save from Origins. I used ME4 only as temperary title as I don't think it will be called that but it's simple paraphrasing for moment.

To be honest I would prefer it set millenia in the future as we already know the backstory of the various races, especially through the Journal text files. The future of the Krogan is more intersting than watching them stuggle to survive with genophage knowing it won't 'possibly' stop until ME3 timeline. Even the Turian/Human conflict is not that interesting as it was a 3 month long small battle. Go back further to Protheans and you have ME3 redux, knowing exactly how it ends with very few surprises.

I completely agree with you on the next story in the ME universe rather than a continuation of the Trilogies story. I can't understand why some people don't understand this. Although if it was me using the unexplained Dark energy plot as major story point in future games would be intersting idea.

Anyways sorry for going off-topic

To abandon everything would be strange and counter productive. However when we have the proper pre announcement announcement expect a lot of talk of reimaging, taking in new directions and exploring underdeveloped/used aspects
.
Basically reboot, but with mostly new characters plot but samish world. Keep the name and basic universe idea for sales sake but abandon most of the rest.

I think most people refer to it as ME4 because we have no idea what else to call it right now. Maybe some are getting their hopes up about it being a sequel to the trilogy but for the rest of us, what else are we supposed to call it? It's a good reminder to keep expectations low and to not put the cart before the horse especially when whatever-the-next-game-in-the-Mass-Effect-Universe is still so early in its design stages but honestly don't see the harm in referring to it as ME4 for the time being.

I hope you end up losing some money then mate because I think it would be a big mistake to make a prequel or even a game which occurs alongside the trilogy. The Mass Effect universe has enormous potential to grow beyond ME3, but it can only happen if it continues after ME3. Anything else will leave players feeling like we already know what comes next. There won't be any sense of wonder like we had during the trilogy.

So here's hoping for a Mass Effect: The Next Generation.

From dev comments pre-release, the only reason they put big galaxy-shaking choices and events into Mass Effect 3 was *because* they knew they wouldn't need to worry about importing this worldstate into another game.

The disparity between the future universes as expressed by the ending epilogues are too vast - if Casey (as the executive producer for ME3 and now the next ME) knew they'd be setting something afterwards with Montreal's game, why would the Extended Cut make the differences even more stark? What about players that picked Refuse?

Sorry, but to my mind this universe is chronologically finishing with ME3. A new adventure can be just as exciting, moving and well-told if it's set alongside or before Shepard's trilogy, and I look forward to seeing where Montreal takes the story.

I m sorry for Chris Priestly but it's BS, Final Fantasy games, Persona games or even Dragon Quest games the universes are really different but you still can number them. I mean people aren't stupid, they know FF13 is not the sequel of FF12 etc.

We should call it NE then as Next Effect

If we don't call it ME4 (which I think most people do out of convenience) then what do we call it? "NEMEG?"

New Mass Effect Game? 0.O

People can call it Purple Xylophone if they want I'd go with "next Mass Effect".

I agree with Chris that it does the next game a disservice by unnecessarily tying it with Shepard's trilogy, but more than that, using it constantly builds up expectations and assumptions that the next game simply won't meet. 

You've all seen the forum threads wondering about how "ME4 will use our ending choices" or how "Bioware will need to make a canon ending to start ME4 with", or "Shepard's new adventures in ME4". None of those are necessarily ever going to happen, especially if Shepard isn't going to be the proagonist. The longer fans don't realise Montreal isn't actually making a sequel to ME3, the more their expectations build for something that will never happen.

Hypothetically if the next game is announced at E3 next year with a subtitle ("Mass Effect: Xylophones") and it's a prequel set in 2170 based on a different crew entirely, how will confused fans talking about "ME4" for over a year help at all? At best it's going to mean thousands of people on the BSN completely waste more of their time speculating on something that was never going to happen in the first place. At worst people are going to be annoyed at Bioware "for not making ME4" when it was announced, right just now, that making ME4 isn't what thei're going to do. 

All I'm saying is: more clarity about what the next Mass Effect game is would go a long way to shutting down a lot of the more unrealistic expectations - and calling it Mass Effect 4 isn't helping that.

I don't blame you for being excited but that article is incredibly misleading. 

Baolong Zhang doesn't work for Bioware. Even if he did, he wouldn't be posting concepts and designs for the next game on his personal, public blog.

He has more art here - it's essentially a personal project, like artistic fan-fiction.

The website in the link says it's "inspired by Mass Effect", not pre-production work for the next game.

Not to mention that Bioware Montreal are developing with Frostbite 2, not Unreal Engine 3.
