The Reapers themselves will obviously have more to do in the story. One effect of their involvement will be the throngs of ground forces of which each ship has access. In Mass Effect 2, the Reapers used Husks of humans reprogrammed to fight for them. In this installment, several races will be subjugated in the same way, so look to fight Rachni, Krogans, and the like to come your way as mindless Husks.
BioWare also wants to address the complaint that the game has strayed from its RPG roots. Look for Mass Effect 3 to produce a more involved skill tree, where many of the powers and abilities will branch off in new, more complex directions. One promising feature is the new ability to customize and upgrade weapons. By adding barrels and scopes for starters, you can now make a weapon perform exactly how you want, plus the weapon will look unique as you customize it. Lastly, they have added the ability to have Shepard pick up weapons from dead enemies and use them.
