Forget that, can you imagine what 24th century sex toys are like?
They probably have their own supercomputers inside them. I bet you can set them to vibrate at cross-dimensional frequencies.
They could build a whole Mass Effect around using one to meet new species.
One word. Eezo. Yah, take that double entendre.
Have they actually stated just how long it's been since the first trilogy? All I've heard is "long after".

If I had to guess "long after" could be decades or even centuries after, with the latter being more likely.

Ahem.
Tali. Nerve-Stim Pro.
Look it up.
I feel like it's probably gonna be set between 100-200 years after ME3, hence why there is some familiar imagery (Omni tool, carnifex, N7...)
The M1911 is still one of the most common handguns in the world.
Well the thing is we don't know how far into the future ME:A is set, it may be centuries or if the rumours are to be believed set during or few decades after the time period of ME3, if this is the case then the lack of significant technological progress makes sense.
Yet they did. Omni blades replaced them.
I hope they at least ADDRESS it, because it is kinda the logical progression of ME technology.
tell that to the Quarians (specifically Tali) and ask about them bayonets.
The big problem I see with omniblade armour and weaponry is that we've always had these overload and hacking powers to mess with them, so say you're only wearing tech armor then an enemy manages to bypass the defenses of your omnitool and shuts it down. Or how about getting to a planet that has storms or something that messes with the tech? Exploring so many planets that's a possibility.
As it is if that happens you still have your armor and weapons that should work mostly fine. At least for all they do they don't seem to run out of battery quickly, that's be embarrasing.
Silcron, I thought something similar when people complained about the Mako in the trailer. On an alien world moving parts, wheels, axels, gears, etc, etc. would be easier to repair than anti gravity systems. It makes a degree of sense that they may use less advanced technology in an environment where replacement parts may be unavailable.
After reading that OP are we just supposed to laugh? cry? or just sit here with our brains ravaged?
He put a little work in that so you do have to give some credit.
Tech Armor should always complement not replace actual armor. What happens when your omni-tool breaks down?
Always thought Tech Armor should break after x amount of damage and need re-applying and that it should detonate tech combos when purged or breaking. Would you walk into battle with just Tech Armor on because I certainly wouldn't. I've always wanted Blue Tech Armor like the Suns for some reason, just looks cooler.
Weapons and Armour are in a constant battle for supremacy,one side gets a temporary advantage until the other matches it or races ahead.When the parity between the two is very close as is the case with Mass Effect equipment all avenues of protection are looked at.
Soldiers are a time consuming and expensive commodity,going by modern examples a new soldier cost the taxpayer $150,000,it makes sense to protect that investment.Also Tech armour is not used for traversing hostile environments,the combat suits can be fully enclosed with their built in environmental protections.
When you put it that way, we're lucky we have any romance options at all.
No wonder Joker fell for EDI... 
I imagine it being more like Peter Quill's helmet.
?
Yet there are still some who use swords. Including N7 Shadows and some Cerberus troops...
omni blades break real blades, apparently. Remember Shepard taking out Kai Leng? Plus loading screens advise you to take out a phantom's sword.
Plus the weapon mods. The Omni Blade attachment is stronger than a regular blade on the gun, for some reason.
I think we should go back to chemical powered weapons like our modern weapons. When you sit down and do the math, our modern weapons do far more damage than the metal shaving block weapons in the MEU. Even the M-920 Cain is a piece of crap. Face the facts. the old Soviet army circa 1970 would have had more success against the reapers than the Systems Alliance in defending Earth. A bullet is a bullet.
A localized EMP would take out MEU weapons and tech armor. You'd be left with knives.
I think they were referring to this aspect:
?
What's more effective: Combat armour supplemented by tech armour, or a guy wearing a t-shirt and jeans with tech armour?

Judging by gameplay, they're both about the same.

Ninja'd. I was gonna give the same response.

Spoiler
except ME weapons are more resource efficient, at the cost of slightly less stopping power.
That's why bringing back Ammo was so retarded, because it completely negated the "resource efficient" aspect.
Also yes ME1-3 weapons suck because they are just slower versions of conventional weapons. Its ME1 weapons that were awe inspiring, due to the adjustable design and functioning more like rail guns (Seriously, sniper rifle with Large Caliber Rounds and High Explosive Rounds? It becomes a straight up rail gun. BOOOOM!)
oh hell....how could i have forgotten....DAMN......the SWORDS.....N7 Shadows and Slayers. them swords. cutting through shields and armor meant to protect against energy and projectiles.....slow moving objects/weapons, not so much. Kinda like that force-field armor in Dune.

The slow blade penetrates the shield!
