Let me further elaborate on these points and why they are a contradiction.

 

1. The entire survey is based on the premise of the Ark theory. In other words, the Arkcon Pathfinder Initiative that BioWare Montreal teased in a tweet. We have no reason or evidence to suggest this is in any way affiliated with N7, let alone the Alliance Navy. Yet, the entire survey is built on the premise that you are a "patfinder," which appears to be an explorer and not a soldier. Thus, it's unlikely what we know from BioWare about the protagonist can also be true about what the survey suggests about the protagonist.

 

And you know what N7 means?   Or is it more of what you think N7 means?

 

 


 

2. BioWare seemed to describe the new protagonist as a N7 recruit, similar to James Vega. He/She doesn't have a reputation yet, but has gotten far enough along to have been invited into an elite organization. Again, BioWare's explanation bears heavy weight that we seem to be going towards another military/soldier-esque story. The survey in no way supports that evidence.

 

It in no way doesn't support it either. 

 

 


 

3. You missed the point here. The new "story" in the survey is another conflict of galactic proportions with humanity on the line and the protagonist has to save it. What BioWare has described is we will not have another "Shepard story" and this will be much more intimate and building relationships with your crew. Again, more reason to believe this survey is fan-made.

 

Look at the DA franchise.   Each story growing more and more complex until they have the entire world literally coming apart at the seams.  And wow, they managed to sneak in some pretty intimate moments in there.

 

 


4. Who exactly would constitute as a "familiar face" we could see outside the main party? Many of the side characters established throughout the trilogy died in ME3 in one way or another. I'm fairly certain BioWare was alluding to previous party members, similar to how Leliana and Morrigan are featured in DAI. Thus, jumping to another galaxy doesn't make a whole lot of sense when they obviously wouldn't be present on this "Ark."

 

Dr. Michel.  Harkan.  One or all of the council.  I'm sure that I'm missing quite a few people. 

 

 


5. My point is that the Mako is an Alliance Navy vehicle. Whereas the Ark theory and this survey are premised on the "Arkcon Pathfinder Initiative," which seems to be an entirely independent organization dedicated to exploration. Why would they have military-grade technology? Again, going back to the fact the main protagonist is using N7 armor and a heavily modified and advanced Mako, it's likely he/she is a soldier and not an explorer.

 

 

I can buy a Sherman tank.   Ya know, the old ones that they used in WW2?  Yah.   I mean...  Anybody can.  So, why can't a corporation buy a basically bigger hummer for planetary exploration?  Especially since it's been decommissioned.  That doesn't mean that the company making them is just gonna stop though.   As long as there are buyers for a vehicle, a company will happily keep on supplying that vehicle. 

 

I mean, hell.   Look at Hummer.  The same vehicle that is being used by the US Military is being driven around by asshats that have too much money and who don't give a **** about the pollution that they are spreading.

 

I mean....   I don't mean for this to come off sounding as negative as it I'm sure it has come off sounding.   But you couldn't be more wrong I think if you tried.

No to Strike Team. Keep any MP aspect out of the SP. I'm not really a fan of the Remnant either tbh, we've been down that road. Love the idea of being an explorer tho.

If true, there are two things I'd like to say:

 

Pilotable ship sounds pretty cool, hopefully there's some decent space combat.

 

These Strike Team Missions must be playable with our single player protagonist and party for the same rewards, not just multiplayer. The MP might be great, but keep it separate.

 

Maybe one more thing:

 

Increase squad size to four instead of three. Would just like to take everyone everywhere, but that's probably not going to happen.

Dr.Michel could be on the Normandy instead of Dr.Chakwas

 

Which council will we see? The council in ME1 can be dead. The salarian councillor could be dead

That's hopefully just an optional thing, yes.

I'd also like the other way round, i.e. MP mode be playable offline with SP squadmates as "combat simulator" or so.

Of course the leak could be deliberate (most are) to gauge fan reaction.

 

This would be useful for the PR campaign and advertising.

^ I was thinking the same thing.

 

I can't help but think about what Legion said. What if Bioware were like: 

 

'We placed a fabricated story on the Internet -- that ME4 would take place in the Andromeda Nebula and that it would have nothing to do with the trilogy. Without waiting for varification, fans started to complain or praise the story already. The arguments taught us much.' :D

ME4 is too long in developement, they couldn't change much about the setting/story now even if they wanted to.

If it is COD with a ME skin then it not for me.
