Personally (and without having any actual facts to back it up) am confident that it will be possible for us to travel faster than the speed of light some day (if we don't bomb ourselves into oblivion first). Why? Because of the simple fact that we can imagine a universe in which we can transport from point a to point b with barely a difference in time, whether perceived by others or ourselves. Whichever theory turns out to be the most feasible to use in the end, whether it be wormholes, warp fields or whatever, if we do accept the hypothesis that the cosmos is infinite, there will be a way to get there.
... And thus - realizing how preachy I sound, - Father Fob concludes his sermon.
We can certainly hope so. We should never stop trying to expand our boundaries. There are Xenos skulls out there, needed to be crushed! FOR THE EMPER.... wait wrong universe.
Not necessarily.
Speed isn't really an issue for reaching Andromeda so much as fuel consumption and drive discharge. Those are the two problems that would absolutely have to be resolved if a ship was going to travel from the Milky Way to Andromeda in the next game. If they can solve those two problems they can reach Andromeda at the present rate of 12 light years per day, it would just require the crew to spend five centuries in cryosleep.
Or they just place ME4 5 billion years in the future, so that Andromeda is 'a bit closer to home'.
