Expect some story spoilers to follow so beware...
- Humans aren’t the only species that can be Husk-ified.
- ME3 begins with Earth’s assault by the Reapers, and things don’t look so good, but there’s something that is a silver lining, that makes it look like it’s actually possible to not lose against the reapers.
- The Illusive Man has sent his top agents to take down Shepard, The combat is going to be much harder and melee attacks are going to have more focus.
- Shooting specific armor parts can have certain effects, and the AI of the enemies will have them routing Shepard and will coordinate with each other
- Battlefields are going to be a great deal larger, and combat will be very varied.
- Enemy Weapons can be picked up. Soldiers can carry all kinds of weapons, and other classes understandably less so.
- There is a larger skill tree and RPG aspects are going to be more integrated.
- Weapon Modding is a greenlight, with things like barrels and scopes
- Modding your weapons will vastly affect their appearance and how they function in battle
- So far the CONFIRMED SQUADMATES are: Ashley/Kaiden, Liara, Garrus, and James Sanders who is mentioned is an Alliance Marine
- Species Loyalty cannot only get obtained via Quests
- Levels will have ladders
- Available Squadmates will still maintain a balance, if per say Garrus had not survived ME2′s events
- Mass Effect 1′s decisions, such as sparing the Rachni, will have a grave impact in ME3
- There’s no railroad to the end of the game, there are multiple paths to take back Earth.
