Hey, Derek
In future Dlc, is is safe to assume that the character re-skins this time around were a one time thing? It'll make no difference on how the game plays, and I feel like it's not that big a deal, but a lot of the characters use the same model.
Also, I like how the team has distinguished Ultra Rare characters as a different playstyle to justify their rarity rather than making them all-powerful kits. Since their existence doesn't "cheat" players out of an Ultra Rare weapon (because the store decides what type of item you get first, then rarity), I feel like the community can't really complain too much. That being said, would you consider the concept of future UR characters?
Btw, thanks for the suberb content. You guys do a superb job supporting the game, and keeping the community happy. I don't think I've ever devoted more than one month to a single title, and before this I've never been a fan of Multiplayer. With support like this, I'll be here until the servers for it go offline.
Edit: Oh, oh! Something I've always wanted to know; Was the N7 Shadow originally supposed to have some version of Phase disruptor? The way she has her palm blaster shown prominently in the character selection screen implies this heavily. Also, what were you guys planning to do with their cover-grab animations? The Shadow and Slayer's description says that their monomolecular blades were "deadly from cover" as well. Sorry, I know thats a bit to read, but I'd love to know.

Why in SP Justicars (actually only one's shown which is Samara) is dressed incredbi-cool sexy while instead in MP Justicars are dressed like non-sexy nuns?
Lol, too funny. I was thinking that they'd look a little more...extravagant (unique? Can't think of a word for it) when I first heard we were getting one in MP too. Maybe the Asari Commando will look better, if we ever get one.

Hey Derek, I'd like to know why a claymore shot does more damage than a krogan charge (force 'n damage build)
No really, that power is becoming worthless.

Why was the Paladin shipped without a biotic power? As awesome as he is now, he should/could have had a biotic power (lash maybe?)

Hey Derek. Thanks for the awesome MP! 
Fast question, do you use Linux? If yes, what distro?
Just for curiosity sake.
(I use Ubuntu myself)

In that case, I'll repeat my first question.
How difficult will it be to include non-humanoid kits like the Rachni or Elcor?

Derek, what do you think will be your favorite out of the still locked kits? (Geth trooper or volus vanguard as an example)
Good question. As much as I enjoy the volus niche-play. I like the Geth more.
What is the soldiers health/shields good sir? If it's a part of aforementioned NDA than I'll understand, it won't get between our relationship.

Hey Derek. I appreciate you doing this Q + A.
Do you have plans to make the hazard maps permanent, once they have all been cycled through? I love them all so far, especially Ghost. I would love to have them all available at one time.
This is certainly something we are considering. Nothing definitive at this time though.

Derek, has the team considered adding new Modes to MP? Someone on the board has an awesome idea about a Suicide Mission mode... Have you seen it?
It would be nice to see some new modes added now that we already have tons of guns and characters to unlock on the manifest.
Also, let me know if this is leading to much toward a NDA-blocked answer, and if I can rephrase to get some sort of answer.
While I agree many of the proposed modes are creative and...well...awesome, it comes down to how much of an overhaul the entire system would need to actually implement them. It is, unfortunately, unfeasible with our current setup and staffing.
