[QUOTE=Jackald;35112803]Also, what the fuck was this all about: [url]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/469738043681418172/849CC3954160DD47C8C878348F12B0FB6F2231EC/?jpg[/url] (ending spoilers-ish)[/QUOTE] That's the scene where my helmet went through Liara's face.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35112997] What happens if you don't [sp]convince TIM to Saren himself (suicide)[/sp][/QUOTE] He goes to shoot [sp]Anderson, but you can renegade interrupt it. If you don't he shoots Anderson. Then you get another renegade interrupt when he goes to shoot you, and if you don't do it he shoots you and you get a Critical Mission Failure[/sp]
[QUOTE=Greeneyes;35112348]I still think Bioware are up to something. They're awfully quiet.[/QUOTE] I'm just going to be pessimistic and say that they're quiet because it's too early since release. Then they'll continue with their standard bullshit and ban all dissatisfied people in the forums.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35112997][sp]Garrus' scene at that bit was way cooler. Shepard and Vakarian storming heaven to get to the bar. Heh, awesome and touching.[/sp] [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] [url]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/469738043681416347/443C684D4C567554571AAFC9880CE221B46260D7/[/url] Me n Wrex [sp]standing at the end of the world[/sp] [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] What happens if you don't [sp]convince TIM to Saren himself (suicide)[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp] He shoots Anderson, killing him outright so you don't get to talk to him about the view etc, and then you gotta do a renegade interrupt or he shoots you too. Affects the ending too if he kills Anderson I think, you don't survive the Destroy ending if Anderson is killed by IM and you don't have enough assets. [/sp]
[QUOTE=Spool;35113049]Is it just me, or did every conversation with Miranda in ME2 and 3, and with EDI in 3 have tons of those close ups of their asses?[/QUOTE] "Okay Bioware team, think. How can we please our fans?" "Well... we could create a pleasing conclusion to our established and loved story perhaps?" "Ha, that's ridiculous. Any [I]real[/I] suggestions?" "Closeups of asses. Everywhere." "Brilliant"
I'm convinced it wasn't the real ending. Bioware are either going to release the real ending for free (or lods of emone) once they've completed it/an appropriate time of leaving everyone in the dark (and letting people complete the game) has passed and something good will actually happen. The ending is too bullshit as it stands for it to be the real ending.

On your right, you will find the deviantart fanmade ending.
[QUOTE=mr hobo;35112955]My main problem with the ending was [sp]why the hell did Joker leave the battle? And how did he pick up the squad mates on the run down the hill? Joker and your team running away does NOT even come close to the characters they have made. I saw all of them dying for the cause of Shepard if it came down to it. And on top of that we don't even see what happens to them after the battle. Really that just killed it for me. Not seeing what happened to these characters they have made, the characters we have followed since the beginning. [/sp][/QUOTE] [sp] The third and "perfect" ending, you see a few members opening the doors after they crashed[/sp]
I just sat through the Liara-femshep romance scene for the second time and yeah it's p hot and all but I keep getting distracted thinking "jesus christ why are her boobs so HUGE it looks stupid"
[QUOTE=LiquidBullet;35113186][sp] The third and "perfect" ending, you see a few members opening the doors after they crashed[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Herrr, no. You see 3 members of your crew leaving the normandy in each ending unless you really fucked up your EMS. The perfect ending is Destroy and Shephard lives, the end. [/sp]
WTF! The ME2 save I edited have every single one of my ME2 crew alive, and Gabbi is STILL FUCKING DEAD!

[QUOTE=LiquidBullet;35113227][sp] In my bad ending i only saw a door open slightly, not showing more members [/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Yeah, that's the "unless you really fucked up your EMS" part of my statement.[/sp] [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Jackald;35113220]Wait, [sp]Even assuming my ending, where Garrus both accompanied me into the beam and emerged from the Normandy at the end was a glitch, Javik pops out too. And he was helping lead the assault. So Joker had to pick him up somehow. Either this is just lazy plothole-filled writing or it really is an indoctrination-based dream.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Yeah, that's one of the major plot hole. People who rushed with you toward the beam are magically teleported on the Normandy as it was FTL'ing to the jungle planet. [/sp]
Pretty certain I played MP for 4 hours today. It's fucking addicting. I've cracked open an insane amount of recruit packs (upwards of 20 or so) and I JUST got my Turian Sentinel. So giddy. And my readiness is actually increasing a fair amount. I fuckin' love the multiplayer.
[QUOTE=Feuver;35113160]Welcome to the Ending Denial club. On your left, to the BSN network, you will find the indoctrination ending. On your right, you will find the deviantart fanmade ending.[/QUOTE] I need some Reaper rule 34 so I can just get indoctrinated and forget all of this.
[sp]It feels like they just shoved something quickly together to get the game done, just look at the whole picture, the game is brilliant and you do so much shit to prepare massing forces from all corners, and then it turns out it doesn't even fucking matter, all you needed was to get over that specific number. It's like they intended it to be like in ME2 but just scrapped it and did something quick. They give no explanation at all to what happens after everything is fixed, is everyone stuck on Earth with the entire galaxy being disconnected from each other? Is it still possible to travel around but much more slowly? Where the fuck did Joker crash land that ship and why the fuck is he happy about it? Because as far as I know he was on the run when some explainable wave of energy hit him and he crashed somewhere in the galaxy. It doesn't make sense when you compare to how well the rest of the story in the game plays out.[/sp]
I think people are complaining about the endings for the wrong reasons, it's not about [sp] surviving with your love interest as per the poll on bsn, it's the fact that what MAKES mass effect ; the geth the relay's and the citadel are gone.[/sp] that's just my opinion, I don't want to not let people have their happy ending I would just prefer a shift in Priorities.

What weirds me out is her skin texture, in the first one she looked smooth, but in this she's all scaly like a snake I don't want to fuck snakes. [editline]12th March 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Jackald;35113353]Personally, during that scene I thought back to [sp]that upgrade you buy for the engineers. "It would stop the ship from being vented with plasma under certain conditions; if you're going at FTL speeds and the emergency shielding breaks." "Yeah, but under those conditions you've pretty much lost the ship anyway" Wait, if EDI is so integrated into the ship, wouldn't destroying all synthetic life destroy the Normandy too?[/sp][/QUOTE] The more plotholes you look into this game the angrier you get [sp]if the Reaper leader was the Citadel the whole time, WTF was Sovereign accomplishing? -How the fuck does the Crucible turn all life snythetic? -Why was Joker escaping? -Why did he crash? Why is he so damn pleased about it?[/sp]

I'm sure Cerberus designed backups for all the systems though.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Sardonus;35113359][sp]Why did [Joker] crash? Why is he so damn pleased about it?[/sp][/QUOTE][sp]Maybe the planet turns out to be that one from ME2 which gives humans severe brain damage, and he's actually thinking about potatoes or something.[/sp]

His Jersey shore design is atrocious.
interesting detail you might've missed about the Catalyst As with nearly ALL my content, stolen from BSN [sp] Is it just me, or does the Catalyst actually have 3 voices? Is that you, male Shepard and female Shepard? Check this footage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gssML_aVmk Listen carefully and you'll hear 3 very distinct voices when the Catalyst speaks. Strange you say? It's getting even stranger... Listen REALLY carefully and you'll hear that the 3 voices are a kids voice, femShep's voice and maleShep's voice. 1) The first voice you'll hear is the kid's voice. His voice is the loudest and panned in the middle. 2) The second voice is femShep's voice. Her voice is panned to the left. If you carry a headphone, you'll hear her only in the left speaker of your phone. 3) The last voice is maleShep's voice. His voice is rather hard to hear because he's almost whispering, but it's clearly manShep's voice. If you carry a headphone, you can hear that his voice is panned to the right speaker. Did you hear it too? What does this mean? Does it mean anything at all?[/sp]

[QUOTE=Sardonus;35113359]I actually thought Liara had some nice breasts. What weirds me out is her skin texture, in the first one she looked smooth, but in this she's all scaly like a snake[/QUOTE] I always looked at Liaras skin in ME3 like an enlarged version of human skin, because our skin is bumpy like that too, at a much smaller scale.
Another really interesting fact about this ending is this; I've heard people defend the ending before. Fine and dandy. Have yet to meet someone who is willing to defend the Reapers motivations. [url]http://oi40.tinypic.com/8vrri9.jpg[/url] It's just so fucking stupid.
Listening carefully, I can definitely hear Femshep's voice. I can hear a lower voice too, when listening through only my right headphone.
[QUOTE=LiquidBullet;35113186][sp] The third and "perfect" ending, you see a few members opening the doors after they crashed[/sp][/QUOTE] Thats the one I got, but [sp]it still doesn't explain how my squad mates that I chose got on the ship. And what happened to the ones I didn't choose? Vega? Javik? Miranda?[/sp]
[QUOTE=DeeCeeTeeBee;35113577]Listening carefully, I can definitely hear Femshep's voice. I can hear a lower voice too, when listening through only my right headphone.[/QUOTE] Yep, that's the male shepard. Definitely a cool detail. Glad I got it pointed out.
