An immaterial concept that got quickly forgotten when they explained what actually happened in the end of ME3.
By ending it, which they did with Mass Effect 3.ThePS1Fan said:
What should Mass Effect 4 be? Non-existent.
It should be non-existent. I LOVE Mass-effect but Bioware has shown they obviously can't handle it or dragon age's awesomeness and put it down. If it is made it should be about a man named James Adams who's parents were marines and trained him in the arts of the infiltrator and now he is about to enlist and then he gets kidnapped and is inducted into a secret organization that is like the specters and Cerberus . They used to be part of the Alliance until one of their Agents dun goofed up and now they work off the money through various contacts throughout the galaxy and now James has gotten ensnared inside a terrorist plot to do something(haven't thought about that yet). HE also becomes friends with a vanguard with the nickname cannon ball. Yes this was my fan fiction idea but I suck at writing even though I read A LOT.
Personally I want one where you play as Garrus during his time on Omega as Archangel. There is so much potential there while still being able to stay at least somewhat familiar to the Mass Effect formula that's worked so well with the other 3 games. Start right after the first Normandy is destroyed and end with Shepard recruiting him for ME2.
Hell, there are PLENTY of side stories they could do for the 2 year period between the Normandy destruction and Shepard's revival, so following the stories of any of the ME1 crew during those 2 years would be cool. Although I personally think Garrus, Tali, and Liara would be the only ones worthy of their own games. I think Liara's was already made into a comic though...

Quite simple
You play as a new Spectre,
and instead of just being a Human you can choose what Race you want to be, Allow people to play as a Krogan or a Turian

A Blasto spin-off game...
If not then I really don't know. I highly doubt they're done with this series. It does have a lot of potential and is one of my favorite sci-fi universes.
I don't want a prequel, that'd feel like a step in the wrong direction. I think a game set in the future where you'll have to life (at least tangentially-- Like in Dragon Age II) with the Commander's decisions would be cool. Be a Spectre or an average Joe that becomes something better. Eh, we'll see.
EDIT: I'll add this video.

Or THAT. I mean, Garrus was vigilante-ing it up for two entire years. There's bound to be some material there.blizzaradragon said:

What's there to learn? The gaming community is one of the simultaneously most fickle, most fanboyish, and most easily enraged communities in existence short of some religious extremists. They release the product, and everyone buys it, and no amount of rage has changed that.BelmontWolf said:
If anything, the gaming community needs some harsh lessons in coordination, level-headedness and anti-fanboyism. It's a complete wreck as is.
They should release yearly games like Call of Duty. Just a third person shooter with 2 dialogue options:
Paragon: IM DA HERRROOOOO OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Renegade: mindless sociopath who slaughters his friends/allies for no reason
That seems like the correct path for the game to go in if you ask me.

I think it was a mistake for Bioware to make the ME3 about a full scale Reaper invasion.
It would have made much more sense if the Reapers were only able to send a small force due to the destruction of Sovereign and the Collectors while the rest of their fleet remain stranded in dark space.
Their goal should have been the same as Sovereign's, take over the Citadel so they can activate its Mass Relay and call the rest of the Reaper fleet from dark space.
The attacks on the various worlds should have been a feint, to draw their fleets away from the Citadel. In fact, it should have been part of the Reaper's plan to let Shepard gather a fleet to retake earth. While the bulk of the galaxy's forces are trying to liberate earth, the Reapers assault the Citadel.
The game would end with the Reaper attack force being defeated but the bulk of their fleet is still out there and will reach the galaxy in a few centuries using conventional FTL drive. Shepard's journey would be over but the story isn't and there would be the potential for a lot of sequels. Mass Effect 4 and the next trilogy would be about the "real war" against the entire Reaper fleet.

I think the Rachni wars would be kinda cool. But I doubt they'd make it into a game because you'd have to play as an alien since the Humans hadn't discovered the mass relays yet. There's the whole thing about most people wanting to play as humans with human ideals and culture, so having to play as an alien might put a lot of people off.Fawxy said:
But yeah, say a team with a Krogan, Salarian, Asari and a Turian, lots of potential for great inter-team drama and in-fighting, a galaxy wide threat, new alien worlds to expore. I think it'd be awesome if done right.
Bioware Victory is making Command and Conquer: Generals 2 (RTS). I see no reason why they couldn't be brought on board.Pearwood said:
It should be a game where you can play anything (not just stupid humans) like asari, prothean, turian, krogan, quarian. I personally want to play a geth
