I vote for 1. QSD -
I have no idea what it might do to the ladies' panties but it sure is a thing worth investigating. For science.
When you put it that way, I second 1. QSD. For science... ![]()
Oohhh yes, that's probably why the things we see at e3 or such events are often sooo different from the final game. Because they made a specific build on a rushed schedule specifically for that event but the actual project is on a completely different wave length.
I remember reading something about E3 demos a few years back and developers said they hate them, because it's months and months of crunch work with no real payoff except for what gets shown in those few minutes. Often they're just using smoke and mirrors rather than something solid which will actually ship in the final game.
That said, EA seems to be promoting a whole "let's show off stuff that's actually finished and in-engine" philosophy recently so I wouldn't be surprised if the ME demo/trailer/whatever ends up being similar to something that was in the game. I know Dragon Age's 2014 E3 demo was an actual level with all the spoilery dialogue removed.

I doubt Bio will show actual game footage. EA marketing wants to show pizzaz. You get that from a created cinematic teaser that is "representative" of the game. Also, the cinematic pizzaz can include boosted resolutions not generally available to the masses... which is another reason EA inserts "representative".
Of course, actual game footage is definitely a bonus... but they may also insert "conceptual".... as in the conceptual busts of dwarves with fantastic beards (from DA:I) posted by Bio, before game release.
No matter how it plays, EA Play will come and go, and fandom will react.
trying to work with a build that crashes on start roughly 60% of the time is getting a bit old...
Yeah... I feel yeah. Been a pretty tough morning
god damn pixel shaders...

Yet with DAI the majority of the trailers, which came out within a year of launch, were of (slightly altered for spoilers or unready assets) in-game footage.
I wouldn't worry.

Shinobi has already said there will be gameplay footage at EA Play.
I didn't know Prince did that, but I wouldn't put it past him
He did this because the record label owned the Trademark to his name. Once the lawsuit was done, Ankh became Prince again.

Thus why for a time he was "The artist formerly known as 'Prince'"

Excuse me...but after years of development,we can't see a game footage?then when we can see it?I personal,think that will see more than a game footage at EA Play.

What is "more than a game footage"?

I referred to story...how we got to Andromeda,when the game takes place,something like that.
THEY MUST, and THEY WILL show gameplay at EA Play because there will be no other oportunity for them to show us this before release. I mean, no big events for Bioware other than EA Play at least.
Besides, the game should be in a pretty advanced state right now, since it has been developed for years and with so much effort and investments. One more reason is because WE NEED TO SEE THE WHOLE **** HAPPENING before they release. Even they must know our reactions before release since they would probably need to use some time if the people's reactions to something in particular doesn't go so well, if you know what i mean...
About reaching andromeda, i have already posted it before but since that conversation is back, i feel in the mood the repost it, just for the sake of curiosity, enjoy:

With all the new techs in development in the field of space travel, i'm sure a sci-fi game developer like bioware will have any problems finding a credible solution to the distance between Earth and Andromeda. After all, they could simply "discover an ancient, misterious and powerful intergallactic mass relay" somewhere at the worst possibility

I wouldn't mind and would even love if we get there with a Mass Relay, like maybe the Citadel Relay connects to a Citadel Relay in Andromeda. That way we can have the iconic Mass Relays in the new games. We can start unlocking them and explore further and further into Andromeda like Mac Walters expressed an interest in doing.
Me to level design: "...yeah, I need a good place to hide a body..." #gamedev
- ME:A to be a Space Psychopath Sim (semi) confirmed.
could this "body" be and Easter egg? A secret powerful wepon? Credits? i wonder if the exploration in the game will be rewarding as it was in ME 3. Its not that it would change the gameplay or make a huge difference in your capabilities but, as a natural explorer, i like to search every corner in the games i play and i love when i find something interesting or surprising or even powerful.

Will those bodies be hidden hidden or DAI-level hidden? *stares at random body sitting on a chair that is nailed to a tree*
The one thing that I think you're all forgetting is this tweet.
When you say, "E3 build," I hear, "**** the whole ****** schedule up."
Bolded and italicized. I think we're gonna have more than just footage at EA Play/E3.
EDIT : And wow, I just clicked on his name. He either really needs a vacation or really REALLY loves Deadwood. It's NSFW, BTW.
Spoiler
Such a cool piece of art.
