I like her and why DOES the Tempest have an N7 paint job when Ryder isn't N7? ~makes X-File noise~

 

Ryder is N7. When they showed off the protagonist armors a few years ago(which looked remarkably like the trailer guy's armor) they had N7 logos on them.

If 'Ominious N7 Dude' was the project lead and went rogue (or too...HUMANITY FIRST! attitude for rest of the crew), and our Ryder is an untrained scrub where decisions are made and they take on a quasi-leadership role to oppose 'Ominous N7 Dude'...I could get behind that type of character development. (or can we support his ideals without supporting the methods??) 

 

Practically a clean slate.....

 

Will be interested to hear more in the coming months.

There's nothing "ominous" about the N7 guy in the trailer. Stop that.

Apart from the fact he's standing right next to the Krogran who drops male Ryder off a ledge.  That's pretty shady.  Kind of... antagonistic, you might say.

Shepard could push people out of windows, and do other similarly antagonistic things. Shep wasn't the bad guy. You don't see the female companion that was previously seen in their company, who was often rumored to be a biotic. Maybe she's going to catch him with a singularity or pull? There's no way to really tell what is happening in that scene.

That's not male Ryder. That's the tattoo-face guy from the leaked gameplay footage. We haven't seen male Ryder yet, as confirmed by the devs. There's no reason to assume the guy next to the Krogan isn't Ryder with his helmet on. Shepard did way worse stuff than that to people so unless you're willing to say Shepard was an "ominous" figure you're being silly.

Speculating is part of the fun  :P I've noticed that interpretation of N7 guy arising independently in multiple different places.

It looks like he's in the white armour at certain points, for instance doing the biotic groundpound.  You can see his crew cut.

I wonder if it is from the same "mission" so to speak as the leaked footage we saw links to here on the forums. I believe the enviroment of the scene looked similar and I do believe it rained as well in that footage.

 

If not, tat-man has the worse luck to repeatedly encounter the same people and I hope it might be a running joke because I'm a bit awful that way.

Er... Nope.

They even went as far as to say that the N7 guy in last year's trailer was not the protagonist, and this latest trailer features both a male and female protagonist fighting in non-N7 armor. It features the Ai logo that Mac Walters was wearing at EA Play/E3.

 

They also just said that the protagonist in this game will not be someone who's already a hero, and in fact will be pretty green and unproven. If you're N7 you've necessarily already got a lot of experience.

^ I thought they were talking about the armor shown in these concepts (there's more somewhere) but I don't think I can see an N7 there either?

Ah, maybe. The fact remains that it's been abundantly clear since last year that the new protagonist won't be N7 (at least initially), and the last few days have only served to reinforce that.

yeah. for the record I don't think the PC is N7. was just sieving through my brain to try and work out what they were pointing to as having the PC in N7 armor.  :)

Yeah, they said this was the protagonist, but how many years ago was that? Mike Gamble said that this was subject to change, as we would expect. Or maybe Ryder later becomes N7 or sth. idk

There's no way to really tell what is happening in any scene, and that is why we need more info. Now preferably. :)

I also don't think the PC is N7, I think s/he will be part of the group with the Ai symbol (whatever that stands for exactly). Given that devs are running around in Ai T-Shirts already, I guess it will be of some significance.

No offence, but I mainly don't have the patience to listen to someone theorize for 30 minutes. I'm sure it can also be done in 10.

 

I'll theorize for 10 seconds:  ME:A is a Destiny clone, which means all the single-player plebs will be forced to play multiplayer, and that is why EAbioware is afraid to show any gameplay

They might've changed that. We saw both female and male Ryder in the last trailer in the white armour and they have the Ai symbol, not N7.

 

 

That's not male Ryder. That's the tattoo-face guy from the leaked gameplay footage. We haven't seen male Ryder yet, as confirmed by the devs. There's no reason to assume the guy next to the Krogan isn't Ryder with his helmet on.

Well, we did see the male PC in the trailer, on the galaxy map, running and using Nova. We didn't see his face fully, and I wouldn't be so sure as well that he's the man dropped by the Krogan, for the leaked footage.

Ark Initiative or Andromeda Initiative is my bet.

I think the N7 guy will be the antagonist or some sort of rival character. He may turn out to be Ryder's brother.

You think every N7 is a "hero" and capable of saving the galaxy, like Shepard?

I like plan B as in breastessess. It's been a while since I took anatomy =).

I think it says O2 on the back of Ryders armor in one shot.

Shepard was generally shown with N7 armour though through marketing. It's strange they show the protagonist with another symbol.

Also, the armour is similar to the one the N7 character wears.

I suspect the dude getting tossed off the cliff isn't broRyder - that one, extremely generic haircut just isn't enough to go on, for me, and the fact that he wasn't part of the three-member squad in the leaked footage makes it still less likely - but I do think the scene's meant to hint at N7 dude having a certain edge. He might not be an outright antagonist, but I doubt he'll be a straight-up ally either.

 

I like her and why DOES the Tempest have an N7 paint job when Ryder isn't N7? ~makes X-File noise~

 
 
To me, the paintjob doesn't really read as 'N7', at least not in the sense that the ship's necessarily associated with the N7 programme. It's the N7 colours, to be sure, but the Normandy (SR-1) had exactly the same paintjob - which is, I suspect, why the Tempest has it; it's a callback* - and it's not like the crew was made up entirely of N7s. I doubt they go around repainting every ship someone with the N7 designation happens to serve on.
 
In any case, if Ryder's going to be an N7, I suspect it's something we'll earn at some point, rather than something we have at the beginning. It'd just fit the idea of our being 'greener' than Shepard was at the start of the original trilogy a lot better, thematically.
 
...
 
*And a very welcome one, since I've always wished they'd repainted the SR-2 in the original Normandy's colours in Mass Effect 3, instead of blue with a side of Alliance logospam.
