Something a bit more than just different colors and textures of rock and sand.

 

Something really alien would be nice. A living planet? 

[Malanek]

I really like the idea of having a pre-space flight civilization we can visit. I think a visit to that one would work best as part of the main plot - maybe they're pre-space flight, with a tech level somewhere between 1900 and 1950 (by human standards). But their planet has advanced alien ruins/tech that they don't yet have the ability to figure out, and we need to acquire for the main plot. How you go about doing that - and how you influence the planet in the process - could raise lots of interesting questions and dilemmas that would seem right at home in Mass Effect.

I like this idea. Another interesting twist would be to make that pre-spaceflight planet at war. Should you intervene to help the side that you consider morally acceptable win?

Now that's another Stargate episode.

Maybe BioWare should get together and binge watch SG-1, Atlantis, and maybe Universe to get some ideas.

Except the obvious Coruscant like big living planet i'd like something like Lake Bresha from FF XIII.

PS 2 : Gonna reinstall that. I thank myself for reminding me that, i guess.

Not really a planet, but how about a Dyson Sphere?

 

Assuming the leaks about the next game are legit supposedly it involves the remains of another collapsed alien civilization. Maybe they had been harnessing the power of the stars.

[Tonymac]

For me, I like the mystery - places like LV-223 in Prometheus.  Something dark and scary with signs of a huge battle that took place eons ago.  What happened there?  What did they fight (and obviously die) over?  Was this the last stand of a race / civilization that had its back against the proverbial wall?  What technologies did they have?

 

Who were there great heroes?  Did they have a great Achilles or Alexander the Great in their day?  What happened to them?  

 

Did they hide in a shelter during the storm and go quietly into the night, or did they stand and fight?

Dyson sphere might be impossible/unfeasible scientifically-wise due to massive gravitational effects created its own mass. But i'm certainly on board when it comes to planets with massive orbital structures we could visit. Maybe some sort of multiple rings orbiting a dwarf star or a planet.

Planets with ancient giant space lifts would be pretty cool, too.

What i'd like to see:

 

Planets with giant floating rocks and isles thanks to some gravitational phenomena(Element Zero doing its magic). I always liked the theme of naturally existing floating landmasses above actual planetary surface.

On top of that you could easily add a civilization that utilizes the mass effects of Eizo in a certain scope but is otherwise fairly primitive.

 

Shattered planets where planet's pieces managed to hold onto the athmosphere creating a very unique environment and ecology. You'd have deserted remains of the earlier life/civilization on the former outside and the new ecosystem on the "inside" in between the shattered pieces. Each piece would stay in a close orbit around a common gravitational centre and in return all of them together would keep the former orbit of the planet around the star.

 

Hollow planet(oid)s with their entire ecology on the inside, created by civilizations as a sort of a giant vault - to hide or preserve something. To add yet another twist we'd find such planets in a very hostile and dangerous environments - with rogue planets and ones orbiting pulsars mentioned already - like for example near a black hole, where relativity effects would be meant to preserve whatever is inside such a planetary construct for a longer time.

 

Jovians(gas giants) with structures floating deep in their athmospheres where we have to go to.

Inspired by Nasa images of the Eye of the Storm on Jupiter, Cosmos on Fox and "Jupiter Ascending"(i really liked their concept of a Jovian raffinery):

 

 

Also inhabited by giant mile-long creatures that could be either animals or maybe even members of a very advanced species based on an entirely different chemistry due to gravitaional influences. For example, hydrogen is a metal in low parts of Jupiter - just imagine how differently life could evolve in a such environment simply due to chemical processes being so wildly exotic!

I'm all in on that...built around a neutron star or "baby" black hole to harness the extreme magnetic and/or gravitational fields.  Of course the issue with that is any civilization technologically advanced enough to do so would be owning the galaxy.  Reapers?  Oh, yeah, they came sniffing around about a million years ago.  They left about a million and one years ago.

Yes. I'd like the concept (dyson sphere) to not just be dropped because Reapers/war.

[Cheviot]

Yes. I'd like the concept (dyson sphere) to not just be dropped because Reapers/war.

It wasn't so much "dropped" as "destroyed by the Quarians."

[LinksOcarina]

A planet that is not just one bio-type.

 

I want a planet that makes sense ecologically. Or at the very least, not something that would be like the Forest planet, or the Desert planet, or the City planet, you know, stuff like that.

[SwobyJ]

Dropped by the writers, in case I wasn't clear. The sphere never got to be completed, so we never got to see where that line could have went.

[RIPRemusTheTurian]

I'd like a planet with combat friendly NPCs that don't get blasted away when I meet them.

 

Other than that, I really like the ideas of a planet with a pre-space/industrialized/medieval civilization. Including moral dilemmas such as whether you should kidnap a local and stick em with a translator, or if you should support a side in a global war.

Perhaps, but space agencies have looked for them. 

 

Fifty years ago the physicists Freeman Dyson speculated vast structures could ring or completely enclose their parent star. These Dyson Spheres, the work of a Kardashev Type II civilization — would be capable of drawing on the entire energy output of its star.

 

Now, Geoff Marcy, Professor of Astronomy at the University of California, Berkeley, who is famous for discovering more extrasolar planets than anyone else, 70 out of the first 100 to be discovered, has received a grant from the UK’s Templeton Foundation to look for Dyson spheres. Marcy plans to study thousand Kepler systems for telltale evidence of such structures by examining changes in light levels around the parent star as well as possible laser traffic among extraterrestrial civilizations.

where did u get this second picture ?

Is that from some movie or something ?

It's from Jupiter Ascending, if I'm not mistaken

I want to be able to go inside a gas giant...  That would be awesome... Going in the mako that can withstand the instense pressures and heat of a gas giant and just zipp around...

[Helios969]

N7 Jam...I hear the visibility is terrible;)

Heh, well... Would be awesome still lol.

[Vortex13]

Places that I would like to explore: the upper levels of a Gas Giant, or the surface of a greenhouse planet (Venus), a rouge planet floating out in the interstellar void, and the orbit around a supermassive black hole.

 

 

 

Really anything that would present a Black Hole as something other than a background prop; these are some of the most powerful forces in the universe, they are capable of sending out streams of energy that can strip the atmospheres off planets an entire galaxy away.

I really dug the aesthetics of Mars in ME3, and it would be interesting to see an actual Sandstorm mechanic in the new one... like, you land on a planet that's very mars-ish and there's a visible sandstorm in the horizon and a timer pops up "15 minutes until Sandstorm hits", so you have to scavenge the planet and get outta there before that happens.

 

It would be kinda like the "evironmental hazard" mechanic (which I loved) in Mass Effect 1.

There is no solid surface to land the Mako on. It's a gas giant, atmosphere gets denser and denser, followed by a liquid layer due to pressure, then a  molten core made of heavier elements.
