Hopefully Casey and the team can get by all the haters and see the real constructive criticism in all that.

Right, based on what we've seen already, we can be fairly certain that things like the Rachni, the decision to keep/destory the collector base, the status of the council etc. will have little bearing on the plot of ME3. The same goes for squad members that can be dead or alive. Keep in mind, Tali was an optional character in ME2. We didn't even have to recruit her. She can also be dead...

Not looking too good for her or anyone else from your ME2 party, imo.

Casey is delivering some marketing speak there. It's intentionally vague so it won't reveal anything concrete and can't later be interpreted as dishonest. 

Again, all imo.

lol that doesn't even make sense.  So you have cameos, and what do they say? 

Tali: hey, remember how I loved you and the Reaper threat was the most important thing to face? Ahh...I got bored of all that so I went back home.

Wish they had thought like that prior to ME2.

[Sir Ulrich Von Lichenstien]

Unless of course Shep is LI of one of them...

Also Jack talked of her and Shep (even if not an LI) doing whatever they wanted to with the Normandy. So she could easily decide to stay even if not in a 'girl group' or a 'romance'.

Edit: Tali could be dead even if didn't go on suicide mission, as stated by others, you don't even have to recruit her in ME2 and if you don't surely she is dead because she wouldn't have had anyone come save her or Kal'Reegar on Haestrom.

Thread is now over.

So it appears. The "play" part seems to suggest so.

Time will tell, of course. But, I interpret "play" as referring to "playing" the game, not "playing" the party members, which sounds kind of dirty.

Tell you what; if you are right, when ME3 comes out, I willingly, though not gladly, will admit to eating my own words and being wrong.


But in all seriousness, that comment seems very black and white to me.

Exactly, these characters don't owe Shepard anything really, they all have their own lives.

Samara has her job as a Justicar to return to and even talks about going back to Omega once the mission is over.

Thane will probably be dead by ME3 due to his disease.  

Grunt would want to return to his people and help out Wrex in rebuilding the Krogan.

SuZe isn't going to just continue hanging out with a bunch of ex Cerberus and military people, she has "edgy" stuff to go do. 

Mordin is pretty old for a Salarian and probably (depending on your Shep) wants to spend what time he has left working on the Genophage cure. 

Tali just lost her father and will probably assume a rank of some importance among the Quarians assuming you didn't get her exiled. 

Zaeed will be off doing his bounty hunter thing. 

Miranda would probably want to go establish familial bonds with her sister.

Legion would most likely want to return to his people and upload all his new collected data.

Realy the only people that would have nothing better to do than to just keeping free loading on the Normandy would be Garrus and Jacob.  That is of course assuming all of them live.

"Shepherd, I've got a life, you know. My kid's growin' up, and I gotta be there. It's been fun, but I can't hang out with you forever. Time to move on."

"...WTF are you talkin'about? I'm not invitin' you to trash bars. This is about savin' the frickin' galaxy. Your kid can deal with you having been away makin' sure they aren't Reap'd before puberty. Next, you'll tell me that your psychologist says I'm bad for your health. Yeah, well, so is galactic genocide. Good grief."

This is about all sapient life in the galaxy, not just Shepherd. It's Shepherd's story because it's told from Shepherd's perspective. If the other characters wanna help in another way, fine, but they don't get to just abandon this so they can entertain their families or live out childhood dreams. It's inconvenient, but that's how these things go.

I know, I'm sorry.

I'm not here to be Debbie-downer. If I thought the ME2 party members were coming back, I would be happy
to say so. Unfortunately, I prefer an unpleasant truth to a pleasant lie. But, I may yet eat my words on this
one, so don't give up

[screwoffreg]

I'll take the bait and make the prediction that the majority of ME 2 squad members will return. We will see in about ~650 or so days if this is true.

[HelterSkelter89]

seeing as they changed the mechanics of me2 to include reloading and regenerating health because of all the whiny halo fanboys saying "why don't the guns reload? i don't like this" even though it goes against canon, i'm sure they would not take out characters like tali or garrus, bioware is to afraid of people complaining about things to remove them.

[KainrycKarr]

Seriously. Don't get so worried guys.

If it turns out he's lying, we'll just burn Bioware down to the ground. >

[tsd16]

I dont get why people think just because a party member can die in the suicide mission its impossible for them to come back as a squad member.

A. ME2 was an exception since it was character driven i.e. the mission was the man, until the suicide run. But for the most part "returning" squad members would not really have an impact on the big picture aside from interactions with the player. Take for example Grunt and legion technically never have to be activated/used, yet bioware included them.

B. To the "its extra work for bioware to include characters that might be dead, pending a players playthrough" crowd. No it isnt. While I agree all ME2 squadmates most likely would not return, They can easily have a small base squad ala ME1, that are brand new or other characters that have appeared that will not be dead. Then it can be filled out with squaddies from ME2 that they choose to continue with, and if they didnt survive, oh well, you dont "need" them to complete the game, just like you dont need grunt/legion/zaeed(DLC) in ME2. yet they coded full dialogue for them (save for zaeed).

C. to the "ZOMG bioware cant do it because I suck at teh suicide mission and bioware will screw me out of content!". Correction you screwed yourself out of content, your actions had consequences, isnt that what people like about bioware games?! I assume the default new game non import ME3 would have your squad living anyway. If you really cant beat the suicide mission with everyone living there is something wrong with you, its so freakin easy you obviously rushed the game and didnt get the required upgrades, or didnt go with the obvious when selecting crewmembers for given jobs.
