The geth are disposable, so I could go either way. Unlike every other race, even the most antagonistic ones, the geth were never really part of the society. They were always the reclusive enemy faction, with Legion being the sole outlier as far as the player was concerned.

If the geth are onboard, does that mean the ship left after Rannoch? If peace was achieved, than wouldn't quarians be on the ship as well? Of course if geth were chosen, no quarians would be onboard. If the ship left in ME3 before Rannoch it would be hard to have the geth onboard since they were under reaper control.

[Ahriman]

As for the Geth, while they could hide, the Geth are very logical beings...

Are we talking about Geth which spent all their resources on defenseless giant computer ball in the face of imminent Space Ctulhus invasion? Or did I miss some other geth?

[Heimdall]

The geth probably won't be coming and that's okay. I personally felt that their arc was played out.

I would like to see a colony of exiled quarians that were exiled from the Migrant Fleet though, then recruited to work on the Ark project. They could have an interesting angle with things to talk about, having rejected the norms of Migrant Fleet society.

I don't think they should be exiled Quarians, but I do agree that the traditions of the Migrant Fleet should change as they will be in a new galaxy. I would imagine that the Pilgrimage will continue as the Quarians would be in a similar situation in Andromeda as they were in the Milky Way, having to find a home and build resources to build a colony on a planet.

I'd prefer exiles because the Migrant Fleet had a policy of exiling those that they consider "deviant" whether for ideology or dangerous behavior.  I'd be interested in meeting some of those people.

 

Plus, it would be hard to justify fleet quarians on the Ark at all.  If before or during the war, the fleet would be completely outside the builders' ability to contact them aside from a few scattered pilgrimage kids.  If after, they could be virtually extinct and I don't see them giving up their homeworld again if they are alive..

This is true, they would be canonizing the peace ending on Rannoch to include Geth and Quarians. I wonder what BioWare would say if they do include the Geth along with the Quarians in Andromeda...something along the lines of "some Geth were sent to assist with the Crucible and also with the Ark Project..."

[Kabooooom]

I'm fairly certain the Geth wont be in Andromeda, for obvious reasons.

The Quarians might be though, depending on when the ark leaves. It would make sense to include them, not just BC they are fan favorites and it would (in-universe) save their species and it would be super dick for the Council to leave them behind...but also because they have experience with the whole searching for new colony worlds in unfamiliar space thing.

There were 17 million Quarians in the Migrant Fleet, I think some of them would want to volunteer to go to Andromeda and I would think the Admiralty Board would approve of some hundred or so of them going to Andromeda to ensure the survival of the Quarian Race.

 

IDK though, I just think the idea of exiles is going a little far. I think Tali mentioned that not many Quarians get exiled and if they did it was for high treason, something that endangered the fleet as a whole. The only explanation I could think of if there were no fleet Quarians is that some of them choose not to return to the Migrant Fleet while on their Pilgrimage, maybe some that made a living in the galaxy or met someone and stayed with them.

 

But it would be cool to see one or two of the "exiled" Quarians, just to see how the traditional Quarians would react to them.

Actually I seem to recall that exile was the punishment for many crimes because the Quarians simply don't have the resources to support a prison population of any significant size.  In a society so strapped for resources and just one system failure away from hundreds of deaths on any one of their aging ship, some rather draconian rules are in place to keep everything stable.

 

I'm not sure anyone would even reach out to them, or that the Admiralty Board would condone shedding so many people to such a project depending on the circumstances, especially since they need every hand to retake Rannoch.  It's a nebulous area.  I guess I could see it happening, but I'd be more interested in meeting quarians with another perspective.

No, it wouldn't. Regardless of what happens on Rannoch it is canon that there are still Geth and Quarians around as part of the galactic forces against the Reapers. Thus both are available for any scenario, thus able to be on the Ark or whatever it is.

[The Twilight God]

Assuming the ship was sent prior to the ending of ME3 the Geth would not be allied with organics and not be passengers onboard.

 

Assuming this ark business is just for the sake of exploration and colonization hundreds of years after the Reaper's destruction the Geth would be a valuable asset to run systems while the organics are in stasis for the long trip.

Maybe there are some but there would still be distrust among both and in that situation I find it highly unlikely that both the Geth and Quarians would be on the Ark. I would assume that the Quarians would demand that the Geth be contained in a sealed area of the ark where they can't access any kind of extranet or communication where they could make some kind of damage (according to the Quarians) and the Geth would most likely not agree to that. And even other races are somewhat skeptical about the Geth, especially since they had aligned themselves with Sovereign in ME1. I think if there was a chance of the Geth being on the ark before Rannoch it would be a 5% chance.

I'm not sure the Quarians are fan favorites so much as Tali, and she ain't coming for the ride. I wouldn't be surprised if neither the geth nor the quarians are in MEA.

[The Real Pearl #2]

Then how am i going to troll mp pugs with my Monstrously Over powered geth kits?

[Calinstel]

There doesn't seem to be any reason why the Geth shouldn't come to Andromeda.

Other than the facts that the geth kill any and all organics that enter their space and ignore radio communications.

ME:A is NOT starting post ME3 and I'm willing to bet it is starting PRE-ME3 so no chance of geth/quarian/anyotherfaction peace.

 

edit to add this line for clarification of previous statement:  ME3 could start during ME3's timeline but then it gets messy on timelines and information.

 

So no.  No geth in ME:A unless BW pulls something out of their *** to have them there.

No, not trolling.  Just badly formulated sentences.  Sue me.

For purely "rule of cool" and story opportunity reasons I think they should include the Geth, but only allow them to use platforms to assist in combat and exploration capacities. The Geth would be very useful for maintaining the Ark's systems and invaluable in the field since Geth combat platforms are disposable. Copies of Geth can be put into platforms but organics don't have that luxury.

I think the geth should exist strictly as disembodied programs on omnitools and various appliances. Geth OS laptops will be the next big thing. 

[Oldren Shepard]

The heretics are a sample of a different way of thinking among the Geth and in my ending all and everyone of them become unique being with their own purpose maybe  a group of them (with the same interest) could go to explore and colonize.

[Anvos]

Considering if it launches pre ME3 there is no way their allowed anywhere near the project and if afterwards even saying they survive Rannoch and/or Destroy their still loaded with Reaper programs to make them feel like their more than a toaster so yeah no.   Also people seem to gloss over the fact that other than Shepard's people before after Rannoch nobody else had any real reason to believe Geth were more than corrupt AI out to kill all life, so I don't see a sudden turn around to trust them not to kill everybody on the ship.

 

Plus Geth would have no need to go to another galaxy since they could just load one of their supercomputers they need to be intelligent on a wide scale on a space station and just have it hover out in dark space in hibernation long enough that Reapers should be gone by then.

[wright1978]

I'd be surprised if the Geth as we know them were present in the game. Not only in several ending variants are they dead but if the ark leaves before that event the galaxy is still hostile to the geth at that point. Surely simpler to introduce a new synthetic lifeform.
