Wouldnt worry too much, it was unofficially official two months back, EA let it slip, bioware just confirmed it today. I actually seen this coming back in january

And tbh, it's non-news too, for all they had to say, they didnt say much at all

TBH I'd rather a delayed game to one being released barely finished and buggy as hell.

Or more likely a delayed game (but not delayed enough!) that's barely finished and still buggy as hell :P

Slow on the uptake, but I just realized that there's going to be Krogan and Salarians in this for sure.

Nothing to show clearly and yet the release date is still March 2017.... not a hope.

Christmas '17 to March '18 is more likely.

I want more of the Mole People and the Guys that are pink blobs (is that who you are on about Sheep?) or and the ones that look like Elephants.

Bascially make it Star Trek but sexier and more violent

Yes! The ones with the telepathic form of communication....Hadar? Hathar? Hodor? Can't remember...

But also a little bit of a criticism...I mean, I sincerely hope we see a whole host of new and original aliens, it is a new galaxy after all.

I don't mind having some old species, because it would make sense that they'd be part of your team. However I hope it's not solely based around them.

Yeah, I want like 50/50 old and new. But where the old ones aren't just the Krogan, Snake, Garrus Types trifecta

What was that assassin guy? Thane? and the guy from the DLC, the asian dude? Was he human (all ME 2)

I was under the impression that you're colonising/exploring and so bringing a crew with you so that'll be the "old" Citadel involved species and that everything you run into will be "new?"

That's the impression they're giving anyway. We've gone to Andromeda to find a new home for Humanity no?

They do say that but it'd a bit odd, think the idea is that this was a group effort incase the reapers win.

Oh really? So the start will probably be before the ending of ME3? That's a great idea.

On the new species thing:

New? yay!
Old? yay!
only old? boo!

Is sheep? just being cranky cos he hasn't seen any sexy new andromeda aliens?

Yes.
