Any chance for a Geth Vanguard in the future?

Charges forward and shatters into a million pieces?  It has possibilities.

1. Has there been any discussion regarding allowing console players to remap controls? Eight actions (sprint, take cover, mantle, dodge, activate, revive, vault over cover, change cover) mapped to a single button seems excessive, especially when there are three buttons that go unused in the default standing state.

2. Has there been discussion regarding the removal of the "marinara sauce" effect while injured? It seems excessively punitive to severely obscure a player's view while in such a fragile state. The "marinara sauce" effect also seems redundant considering the prominent shield/health bar display.

Thanks for taking our questions!

1. It would require a re-working and patch.

2. The bleedout effect is something we feel is the most effective means of telling people to take cover.  This has been part of Mass Effect for some time now.  Not just ME3.

I read you're the type that likes Assault Rifles, so I gotta ask...

Revenant or Typhoon?

Edit: Grammar

Typhoon.  Less spread and no need to add the stability damper.

Just as rare as any ultra-rare...It is simply more coveted

Hey Derek, I hope you get a chance to see this soon. I understand the NDA response, but curious as to how you personally would feel about something like this as a DLC.

Cool, but would be immense.

What do you think personaly about automatic assault rifles on gold and platiumn? Do YOU think they should be improved or are good as they are?

I would LIKE to see some improvements on many assault rifles.  It's a matter of how much I can threa...er bribe..I mean, convince Eric of.  Yes, that's it. 

Have you ever considered instead of buffing fast RPM weapons against armor instead go back to the way it was in ME2 and make slow RPM "high dmg per shot" weapons less effective against shields (mby with a code that give negative return in dmg per shot against shields) to balance it out. 

Right now high dmg per shot weapons are better against both armor and shields ( at least not less effective against shields) than high RPM weapons are.
And it would make more sense concidering that we have a tool tip that say high RPM weapons should be more effective again shields ( and that's the way it has been in previous ME games).

These are definitely questions the team struggles with.

Hey Derek,

Is there a reason why the hazard maps are on a cycle?

Yes.  People playing unknown maps will hit a hazard map approximately 13% of the time with only 2 in the mix.  If they were all in the mix it would be roughly 32% of the time.

Hey Derek, any chance of the N7 Piranha returning to its former glory of having 8 in the clip

Just looks funny having 6, while it is 8..perhaps decrease its damage a tad bit?

PLEASE!!

I must admit that, considering we use a thermal ammo type, I am surprised that we show chambers at all

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.

I can't comment about future development on any project.

I can say that utilizing existing assets like character models and skins is an efficient means of creating new combinations.

We had a few ideas tossed around for the N7 Shadow including a palm blaster but we felt the more acrobatic electric slash was visually more exciting.

Over cover grabs for the slayer and shadow had various ideas tossed around as well.
