[QUOTE=God dammit;35107615]Anyone else had this bug where [sp]you have a final talk to TIM on the Citadel and no matter if you have full paragon or renegade, the last two renegade and paragon choices are locked out?[/sp] Also, how do you reunite Liara with her "father", Aethyta? No darn clue of how to do it.[/QUOTE] Did you choose the paragon/renegade choice in every conversation with him, including Mars?
[QUOTE=LEETNOOB;35107668]Talk to Liara after talking to Aethyta.[/QUOTE] wow. Completely missed the whole father thing and I romanced her. How do I find Aethyta?
[QUOTE=Arvuti;35107514][sp] the mass relays got destroyed etc, shepard spends the whole game reuniting the galaxy and now all the people who survived the assault on earth are fucked since there is no way to get back to their homeworld. You help the quarians get their homeworld back and they can't even get to it anymore. Also there is really no epilouge or anything and the choices you made in previous games really dont matter when it comes to the ending [/sp][/QUOTE] the way everyone is carrying on you made it seem like it would go like this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wZzoeI1pKE[/media] it gave you a hell of a lot more than the human revolution endings, which was also a 3 choice deal which ALSO had one of the choices [sp]kill the protagonist, and then all you got was some uplifting stock footage set to a monologue.[/sp] and yet not nearly as many people complained about that than they did me3's ending it's not great, but it's honestly not that bad at all. i mean, come on.
[QUOTE=Greeneyes;35107691]wow. Completely missed the whole father thing and I romanced her. How do I find Aethyta?[/QUOTE] The first time you go to the Citadel, talk to Liara first. Then Aethyta will be at the bar. Talk to her. Then go back to Liara and convince her to talk to Aethyta.
[QUOTE=GetBent;35107674]Did you choose the paragon/renegade choice in every conversation with him, including Mars?[/QUOTE] [sp]Only at the end inside the Citadel. When he has a gun in his hand and is about to kill Anderson.[/sp] [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=LEETNOOB;35107668]Talk to Liara after talking to Aethyta.[/QUOTE] And where is Aethyta?
[QUOTE=God dammit;35107710][sp]Only at the end inside the Citadel. When he has a gun in his hand and is about to kill Anderson.[/sp] [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] And where is Aethyta?[/QUOTE] At the bar/cafe on the Presidium Commons. [editline]0[/editline] she is the bartender [editline]0[/editline] or should i say "he"
[QUOTE=God dammit;35107710][sp]Only at the end inside the Citadel. When he has a gun in his hand and is about to kill Anderson.[/sp] [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] And where is Aethyta?[/QUOTE] Well that's your problem, you have to choose the paragon/renegade response everytime you have a conversation with him. [sp]Mars, Thessia, the Cerberus Base[/sp]
[QUOTE=selby3962;35107616][sp]I chose destroy as my ending. I'm guessing Shepard died, though it never expressly showed him dead. Joker, Talibro and Garrusbro got off the ship on the island. Really sad that it wasn't the happy ending I was hoping for, but I'm glad that it realised that Tali and Garrus were the two team members I always took and let them survive. I have to admit though, I was slightly disappointed. The dead child thing seemed kinda cliché and the whole "Ending-O-Tron 3000" for making the final decision. It feels kinda cheap now that I think about it. Maybe if there's a Mass Effect 4 any time in the future I'll take the time to replay the final missions for a "better" ending that doesn't plunge the entire galaxy into the stone ages.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]If you have sufficient EMS, you will see Shepard wake up in what looks like London. He definitely survives. Only the Destroy ending gets this, which started the indoctrination theory in the first place.[/sp]
[QUOTE=GetBent;35107741]Well that's your problem, you have to choose the paragon/renegade response everytime you have a conversation with him. [sp]Mars, Thessia, the Cerberus Base[/sp][/QUOTE] Must've misunderstood the question. I've picked Paragon in every single encounter with him. It's just the [sp]very last one on the Citadel I can't pick because it's greyed out.[/sp]
[QUOTE=God dammit;35107615]Anyone else had this bug where [sp]you have a final talk to TIM on the Citadel and no matter if you have full paragon or renegade, the last two renegade and paragon choices are locked out?[/sp] [/QUOTE] Yes!! that happened to me i was full paragon and i have gotten every other single paragon prompt in the game, but both were blocked out for me! what the FUCK!

[QUOTE=GetBent;35107779]The Paragon check right? The blue colored conversation choice? That's what I mean.[/QUOTE] Yesh.
[QUOTE=God dammit;35107790]Yesh.[/QUOTE] Well then I guess there must be some other condition. What'd you do with the Collector Base?
[sp]I'm not sure if I'm late with this or not, but regarding the ending, from what I've read you all seem to be forgetting that when a Mass Relay is destroyed the solar system it's in is obliterated and all life, possibly the planets themselves, dies with it. Every relay was destroyed. That's every populated system. You can see the fucking explosion by looking at an overview of the galaxy. That's a HUGE blast. The only people that could survive are the odd Terminus ship in a unpopulated system or a stranded military ship that is so far outside explored space that they couldn't be called to the fight. So basically no matter what your choice is everyone dies. No matter how many war assets or races you have united, they all die anyways. This is the worst part about the endings in my opinion. Of course you may have all realized this in the past 3,000 posts that move to fast for me to read. Why would they do this. What the fuck Bioware.[/sp]
[QUOTE=GetBent;35107792]Well then I guess there must be some other condition. What'd you do with the Collector Base?[/QUOTE] Destroyed it.

The mass relays then are destroyed less catastrophically. [/sp]
[QUOTE=God dammit;35107830]Destroyed it.[/QUOTE] and i didnt. so its not that.
[QUOTE=Greeneyes;35107832]I think those [sp] blasts are the energy being spread for the destroy/control/synthesis. So not energy in the form of the supernova in arrival. The mass relays then are destroyed less catastrophically. [/sp][/QUOTE] Exactly my thought. [sp]If you think about it, the relays could release the same kind of energy the Catalyst and the Crucible did. In the cinematic cutscene the soldiers on the ground were unharmed by the energy while the Reapers either flew away or collapsed.[/sp]

So, I don't think every system explodes like that one did no[/sp]
Found this on BSN [url]http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/355/index/9741451[/url] (spoilers I suppose) so wait, the endings at first had epilogues in them, wtf ? [sp] and wow they are depressing [/sp] ehh read more of it and it seems like a troll. nvm
[sp]Yeah I don't think it killed everyone. Why would the relays exploding kill everyone? If that were the case, why didn't the reapers just destroy all the relays in the first place? But I agree it was dumb that they exploded no matter the ending.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Novangel;35106174]How to do the Blue suns mission without killing [sp]Oraka[/sp] :v:[/QUOTE] You have to speak to the solarian running the gun shop, he'll tell you to get him some artifacts from a system in exchange for guns to give to Oraka.

Only the Destroy ending gets this, which started the indoctrination theory in the first place.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]How much is sufficient? I mean, I had around 3000 EMS. About 6000 total, but the stupid multiplayer aspect halved it. The bar at the bottom was fully green so I figured that would be enough.[/sp]

[QUOTE=TheLolrus;35107886][sp]Has to end somewhere. Once there are no more mass relays to pass it to, what happens to those relays?[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp] The energy dissipates in a big ball of energy like all the other relays. The beam isn't what gives the relay it's energy it already has that. The relay that was destroyed in arrival dissipated its energy as a fireball, but at the end of ME3 the beam from the citadel changes the energy to what you pick. Releasing the relays inherent energy as destroy/control/synthesis [/sp] [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] Boom problem solved.
[QUOTE=ParoshWasHere;35105115]I think I'm incredibly late, but what the fuck?
