From the Bioware forums via a person who had the magazine:

1. Humans aren't the only species that can be Husk-ified.
2. 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 .
3. TIM 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.
4. 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
5. Battlefields are going to be a great deal larger, and combat will be very varied.
6. Enemy Weapons can be PICKED UP. Soldiers can carry all kinds of weapons, and other classes understandably less so.
7. There is a larger skill tree and RPG aspects are going to be more integrated.
8. Weapon Modding is a greenlight, with things like barrels and scopes
9. Modding your weapons will vastly affect their appearance and how they function in battle
10. So far the CONFIRMED SQUADMATES are: Ashley/Kaiden, Liara, Garrus, and James Sanders who is mentioned is an Alliance Marine
11. Species Loyalty cannot only get obtained via Quests
12. Levels will have ladders
13. Available Squadmates will still maintain a balance, if per say Garrus had not survived ME2's events
14. ME1's Decisions such as sparing the Rachni will have a grave impact in ME3
15. There's no railroad to the end of the game, there are multiple paths to take back Earth
16. in ME3, you will start off with most of your powers from ME2, that will be able to evolve multiple times

ME3 is sounding more and more amazing.

Everything sounds jolly good, Bioware is really improving lot of stuff for the third game in terms of the gamplay aspect.

 

[BlackLantern]

not a fan of Liara...what happened? being the Shadow Broker too big a job for her?

 

[TX85]

great info!

I sure agree!

 

[Master Chief]

I wish they wouldn't release any more details until like, October. goddammit.

 

[TX85]

When is this coming out anyway?,I keep forgetting!

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

It is expected to release around the holiday season this year.

I'm actually surprised at how good the game's looking and how they're furthering ME's art design with some cool new visuals - Anderson's outfit and the Cerberus commando outfit for example look fantastic.

I figured ME3 would be ME2 with some upgrades here and there, from a visual standpoint as well as a gameplay one but it looks like they're seriously trying to one-up themselves here.

 

[SolarTiger]

Why does Ashley look like Miranda now?

 

[Soapy]

Levels will have ladders

GOTY 2011!!

 

[BlackLantern]

Levels will have ladders?? like game levels or skill levels??

Totally agree. It looks like Mass Effect 3 could possibly be a bigger improvement to ME2 than it was to the first game.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

GOTY 2011!!

1. If it comes out in 2011. I still have my doubts that it does.

2. If it does, it's between this game and Skyrim. That's my prediction. The best game of the year will be one of those too. The question is which one?

Both games have been mindblowing from what we heard so far.

 

[BlackLantern]

the **** is Skyrim?

 

[Soapy]

Sarcasm, mother****ers! Do you speak it!?

I do not think that having ladders in a game qualifies it for "game of the year".

Though I agree, it's between this and Skyrim. If ME3 does come out this year. I have my doubts.

 

[BlackLantern]

what the **** is Skyrim??

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

 

[Soapy]

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

 

[BlackLantern]

oh...I don't play that
