I was thinking, if they pick control or destroy they may have to mention Shepherds fate as she was still around, either as a consciousness controlling the reapers or as a battered human, if they pick the synthesis then Shep is just gone but is a galaxy full of cyborgs the best starting place for ME4?

 

Personally I hope for destroy, I want some proper closure on my Shep's fate, I know ME4 isn't about Shep but the 'ultimate destroy' ending just left too many unanswered questions

 

You are leaving out one ending that some players got: Shepherd dies during the suicide mission during ME2.

 

If I were in charge, the splinter group that heads for Andromeda would depart the Milky Way long before the end of ME2 (and probably before Shepherd's resurrection), and would never reestablish contact (at the very least out of fear that the Reapers might come after them).  Do that, and it can be consistent with every single choice in the entire trilogy, with no retcons or anything.

Meh, it's not as if they ever were *that* careful about retcons, and the ending you mentioned is as non-canon as it goes, since the mere existence of ME3 retcons it.

 

At this point I care very little, and expect even less. I didn't like how ME3 ended, I didn't like many things about DA:I, and as much as I think that Andromeda is a cowardly cop-out, it's an efficient  way out of the mess of the ending. I'll just wait until the game comes out to see if it's worth buying.

No pre-order for me, I don't think that Bioware or EA deserve the extra trust.

Nice replies...anothet question...will it be a save import or a DA Keep thing for ME:A?

[Laughing_Man]

Not sure that either will be available considering that there is very little to connect Andromeda with the original trilogy.

I hope not.

 

Or if it is, hopefully some of the more popular fan endings are options:  MEHEM, IT, Marauder Shields.

 

Cause otherwise LOW EMS Destroy becomes my "canon"  KILL ALL THE THINGS!!!

Synthesis isn't as bad as many of you think.  It definitely seems the ending favored by the developers.  Having synthesis will allow characters to have abilities a player in a normal shooter wouldn't have.  

 

I personally want to see the geth, so control really is the only one that makes sense that isn't synthesis.  Maybe Reaper Shepard gives the inhabitants of the milky way technology that allows them to travel to Andromeda.

 

Of course there is the no ending version.  Hackett might have put a bunch of people on sleeper pods and sent them to Andromeda as a way to preserve the human race incase humanity loses the war during or slightly before the war. That would explain the, "This is far in the future way from the events of the original trilogy. It wouldn't explain how we are supposed to see characters from the original series, and the Krogan seen on the demo.

If it is indeed a tale of the Milky Wayans heading off to another Galaxy, then surely it can be inferred if the ending was synthesis or not, so BW can't really be coy about what ending they're choosing or not choosing, as t'were, even if they don't explicitly state so.  Be interesting to see what 'fasty' they pull.

Here's  my thought:

 

After ME1, the Council grabbed Sovereign's intact mass effect core and FTL drive. Yes this is kind of an ass pull, but it's a good one. They knew the reapers were coming, just a matter of when, so the Asari being the most advanced began building The Ark project to save tens  of thousands of the brightest minds of each of the major races in the galaxy. They knew they couldn't save everyone, so it was determined that they'd save Asari, Turian, Human, Salarian, and we know they decided to save Krogan.... because Wrex. The project was completed in the system with Nevos because it was never invaded. When Thessia fell, word went out and those who had been already gathered were put into cryo-sleep, and  the ship left. This was about a month before the Crucible fired. They just used reaper  FTL which was found to travel much faster than codex, and they were about 30,000 light years away from  the galaxy when the Crucible fired and thus unaffected.

 

So it  doesn't matter what tale of the Milky Way gets chosen, because those  in Andromeda won't know for well over a million years! See QEC travels at the speed of light (codex).

 

This  is how Bioware gets to weasel out of the ending.

That's only the case if the folks heading for Andromeda left after the ending of ME3.

 

If they left before the crucible fired, and were out of range of any Mass Relays when they all went sploosh, then those folks may never, ever know which ending happened.  And, my money is on exactly that happening.

 

If they left early enough, then it may even be consistent with "Shepherd dies during the suicide mission in ME2, and ME3 doesn't happen".

What's so appealing about this "ending"? It's really no more an "ending" than any "critical mission failure" you can get if you die.

Well, except that it counts as actually winning the game -- the mission actually succeeds.

Yea, a group could have been shot off into the unknown prior to the results of the war being assured either way as a plan B (Z?).  Even refuse is viable.  But the last bit?  Meh.
