Maybe I haven't read all the details about MEA so far but the game is called "Mass Effect" so you would think the possibility exists for Mass Relays to be built in Andromeda or that races that lived in the Milky Way possibly took the technology to Andromeda.  Because if there is gonna be krogan, asari and salarians in Andromeda that means they came from Milky Way somehow, whether its with the colonizing expedition or any other way.

 

I wonder if I'm making sense, I have a hard time understanding myself sometimes.

As of now we do not know if there will be Mass Relays in Andromeda. When asked about it, Aaryn Flynn said "I don't think we can get into that."

I don't think so. Rumor has it that it will take place within a single cluster in Andromeda. Maybe by this time, the alliance races have fully reverse engineered mass relay technology and are colonizing a foothold to perhaps deploy mass relays of their own to star clusters for future games.

None was shown in the teaser.

Not saying this is a Mass Relay... but perhaps something along a similar vein since there appears to be a ship traveling towards the portal in the center...

Maybe it will transport us here, which could be a crucial location to the plot:

If not, I think that would open a plot hole of the size of dark space.

In the trailer we saw an alternate form of travel. The ship simply seemed to make some FTL wormhole/hyperspace/mass effect jump of some kind. We don't really know if this is any different from the normal FTL travel under a mass effect drive we have had in the original trilogy. But as said above, the game is rumored to be set in a single massive cluster, so if everything is closer together we won't need them.

If I understand correctly we not explore all galaxy game take play in one cluster so we don't really need very big faster than light speeds. And ship moves as fast as plot demands.

Maybe we can build our own now?

I'm thinking no - it doesn't sound like we'll be dealing with a galaxy-spanning theme this time around but merely one small cluster in the Andromeda galaxy.

"merely small cluster"  :lol: Cluster consist of several hundred stars I think it's more than enough material for game. I see no point in have "epic" story with galaxy's eating forces of evil. In all 3 mass effect games I doubt we even reached 50 planets count. Amount of planets we landed even smaller. And after Dragon age Inquisition the smaller the better.

I'm not saying it's small - just that it appears that everything will be closer together than it was in the previous ME games; so we might have some smaller scale jump gate type things with a range of maybe a hundred light years rather than Mass Relays that can lob you from one spiral arm of the galaxy to another virtually instantly.

Correct me if I am wrong, but that would mean the Reapers were in Andromeda at some point? (Which probably wouldn't be much of a stretch, I guess, since we don't really know all that much about their whereabouts. But that might mean Andromeda also had the galactic genocide thing going? Did our Crucible solve their issues, also? Ugh, I don't want to think about that.) Unless another civilisation figured out how to build mass relays, as well. I suppose it's not impossible.

That´s one of the problems. If other galaxies weren´t monitored and reaped at all, humanity or any other milkyway species that would arrive there would get blasted by civilizations or synthetics far beyond our tech-level because they had an unhindered development for all those cycles.

I'm not sure that would necessarily be inevitable because I assume that life in Andromeda and its development may be completely different from ours. It might have started later. It might have been slower or poorer. The planets might have environment that would take their development a completely different way. Etc. If they were so much more advanced than we were, then there would perhaps be a chance they would visit our galaxy before we visited theirs? (I am speaking out of the position of a layman, of course. I don't know nearly enough about space and biology to be able to form a well-informed opinion.) However, I agree with you. I mean, that could definitely be one of the possibilities.
