I expect the Milky Way to be ahead of them in development.

 

1) Wild West Theme of this game suggests a lack of order in Andromeda.  Underdeveloped civilizations lack the structure to maintain order.

 

2) ME universe has taught us "First Contact" often results in wars: Humans and Turians, Salarians and Rachni, and Salarians and Yahg.

 

We need a technological edge to beat the natives due to our limited expeditionary numbers.

 

3) The name Remnant.  An Andromeda theme will be uncovering Remnant treasure.  They're probably extinct but their tech is valuable.  This leads me to believe the native sapients aren't ahead of the Milky Way in development.

 

4) We seen tons of "creature aliens" that look more like animals than people.

I think some will be advanced while there will be mostly primitive. It honestly depends on how long the races have been around. Unlike the milky way it seems like Andromeda doesn't get the reaper reset button every 50K years. However since reapers werent around and Andromeda races didn't have mass relays or citadel to base technology on then it stands to reason that the advanced races will probably have remnant vaults on their worlds while the primitive ones will not have them.

Unless they're being culled by their own synthetics at a certain point in their technological advancement, some species should be far more advanced than anything we've seen thus far

[AngryFrozenWater]

The MW was harvested every 50K years. Andromeda was not. Therefore there could be civilizations which that are much older than 50K years and thus may have more advanced technology.

 

Also, if there are Remnants which are supposed to be advanced and now extinct then it was either their own doing or something more advanced/powerful wiped them out.

[SKAR]

From concept art and footage from the E3 trailer they're probably just as advanced as us.

Remember, the great filter in the ME universe is synthetic life, which destroys it's creators after a certain point and in return is destroyed by the combined efforts of the other races of the galaxy.

 

The reapers are the trend breaker, in that they were too powerful for the rest of the galaxy to beat.

remember that the reapers are synthetic and organic, preserving the races they harvest within themselves.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind if this was a "rule" that was exponged from the new MEU. I'd prefer not to have this old plotline resurface.

Well, they're still destroyed, rendered defunct as a species.

There is a limit to what a civilization can develop in 50K years. The main purpose of harvesting was to prevent synthetics to take over. That means that there was a set limit of what a civilization was allowed to develop. Therefore not much could be gained by harvesting civilizations with the same limits. Thus the whole idea that it improved the reapers somehow doesn't make sense.

 

Edit: The only thing they gained from it was resources for their reproduction.

It takes part in a tiny portion of Andromeda,  so it's possible that this piece of Andromeda is primitive.

 

Other than that, why wouldn't there be more advanced civilizations in Andromeda unless there is something like the Reapers there to make them all 50000 old or less. 

 

Then again it's a game so humans will win,  possibly with the help of an advance Andromeda species.

[SKAR]

but not gone. Just in reaper form. Personally I'd rather keep my own form.

[Cyonan]

The less technologically advanced they are the easier it will be for us to conquer them and take their stuff.

The reapers set the limit to make harvesting easier. organics would eventually create AI and become more advanced as time goes on. Some more than others. The reapers harvested organics before they became too strong or their own synthetics wiped them out.

I think it would be hilarious if the whole area of Andromeda we are squabbling with primitive natives over is just the cosmic equivalent of the boonies, and that outside of the Hellius cluster are alien civilizations that make the Reapers and their tech look like tinker toys.

[Beerfish]

I just want to go to these planets and leave a large black domino on the planet in a swamp to confuse the locals a million years later.

Which isn't going to happen. sure there may be people with there own ideas but colonising a few planets in a galaxy is a lot different from colonialism from back in the day. We're not going to be the people from Avatar. We're not conquering anyone. Just exploring and settling uncharted worlds. But I'm not sure. Maybe we.will take primitive resources and be just like the dudes from Avatar. We'll see. In terms of advanced races, no conquering, we don't have the firepower or fleets probably. Primitive races, well we may have to make some tough choices. It's 50/50 with me. I don't want to conquer anyone but we have to do what we have to do to survive.

Yep. There are like a billion stars in the galaxy. ME:A takes place in a part of the galaxy where some space race was wiped out by another one. We learn it from those Remnant treasures and ME:A 2 and 3 (if there will be any) will be about how MW species try to communicate/integrate with them, take part in their wars and so on. Asari join one faction, while Krogans promised cure for Genofage if they join another. Turians this, Humans that. Someone tries to stay neutral. Not bad plot. I like it.

Yes. Harvesting made sure that they stayed at the top of their food chain. But they didn't gain anything by the so called "ascension".

[ViSeiRa]

I think we'll be more or less on equal ground, for basically 2 reasons:

 

1) Andromeda races didn't have to go extinct every 50,000 years and then other races get to start over.

2) Our races didn't need to develop most of their technology, the reapers may have extinguished the races every 50K years but they also left vast technological advancements that new races could make use of right off the bat.

[SKAR]

They gained a new reaper and preserved the race they harvested rather being destroyed completely by their synthetic creations. They still exist in reaper form. I believe it's gestalt like the geth.

[KaiserShep]

They don't gain a reaper, since they can't actually use it themselves in any capacity. It's totally under the catalyst's controls.

What?

[Smoothie]

Maybe we'll enter a primitive portion of Andromeda with species who are below us in tech, but are in the process of being uplifted by the Remnants who are purposefully leaving tech lying around.  Then towards at the end of Andromeda we could learn that the more advanced Remnants are alive and well and controlling Andromeda similar to the way the Protheans controlled the Milky Way before the Reapers hit.

I hate assumptions cause you make and @$$ out of you and umption. But seriously who the hell knows or cares at this point, apparently a lot of people. I just want to play the darn game.
