[QUOTE=yawmwen;35562256]I wanna see what happens when Shepard and Legion have babies. "Shepard-Infant, are you prepared to interface with your milk recepticle?" "Yes, Legion-Father, have you warmed it up to the optimal temperature of 98.5 degrees farenheit?"[/QUOTE] stop it

That is 'I'll murder you in your sleep' creepy. I mean, look at that thing! Its face, its eyes, even the way it reaches for 'femshep' is god damn creepy. You can almost hear it speaking some demonic Latin phrases. [QUOTE=Grim Joker;35562111]Yeah, Human/Turian hybrid baby kind of weirds me out.[/QUOTE] Deleted scene: Shepard and alien love interest going through an adoption service looking for a child. Everything from the chubby batarian baby to the bratty asari baby with the goo-goo eyes is seen. You have a choice to choose which one you want (color coded clothing). All the while EDI and Joker construct a baby of their own combining aspects of themselves.
[QUOTE=Grim Joker;35559654]Actually the entire point of being a Specter is that you are above the law. You can do whatever you want and kill whoever you want, and as long as the Council doesn't have a problem with it, you can't be punished for it.[/QUOTE] Which says nothing about an inquest or hearing.

[QUOTE=Sardonus;35560661]Fuck you that's not funny. I'm serious. Kaidan/Ash was so easy because I couldn't give a shit about either of them. But I could never do that.[/QUOTE] Hos shall never disrupt Bro*Force. [editline]14th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=GetBent;35561294]She wasn't a racist in ME1 either. The "Aliens from the animals" line is just commenting on how there are aliens that look like gorilla-elephants, bugs, and lava lamp jellyfish.[/QUOTE] Wrong. Get her and Liara to both like you. She makes a complete racist ass of herself in public.
[QUOTE=27X;35562376]Which says nothing about an inquest or hearing.[/QUOTE] He was in jail for six months. That is not an inquest or a hearing. Also, do you know what a hearing is? If he doesn't follow the laws of the Alliance, he isn't obligated to show up for any sort of anything that officials set up. He's bound by the Council, and as shown, the Council didn't give much of a shit about it. They didn't say a word about Arrival, and they even re-instated your Specter status after you told them you were working for Cerberus.
[QUOTE=Scar;35562173]Remember how Pressly was concerned about Tali stealing technical details? One might wonder where the Quarians got the stealth technology for their Ships in ME3..[/QUOTE] motherfucker i beat you to it like a hundred pages ago because im a genius also i might have accidentally incited a lynch mob on the subject
[QUOTE=Grim Joker;35562131]Yeah, and in those appearances, Pressley is trying to save your life, and Ashley is bitching at you non-stop. Gee I wonder which people will dislike the most.[/QUOTE] I have a feeling this debate is going to go in circles :v:

Both a renegade and paragon Shepard would probably be willing to spend some time in house arrest in order to prevent a war with the Batarians.
The one thing I hate most about Ashley is how Bioware made her so her hair is down. It just doesnt give her that female-soldier look like her previous hair did.
[QUOTE=yawmwen;35562594]Again, if Shepard was willing, they could still go through with the hearings.

[QUOTE=JeanLuc761;35562576]I have a feeling this debate is going to go in circles :v:[/QUOTE] no circles pressly is a straight up pimp ashley is a bitchtwat and other casually misogynistic words
[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;35562633]some time? yes all of the time that you had bought by sacrificing the colony, severely hindering your ability to escape and warn the rest of council space in case the reapers attack earth first? no[/QUOTE] He had been warning everyone about the Reapers for the last 3 fucking years. No one was doing shit about it. It would have been useless for Shepard to demand freedom so he could warn people who wouldn't listen. Again, it would have been more effective to stay in jail and appease the Batarians rather than be free.

[QUOTE=Psychokitten;35562586]Which reminds me, what happens when you pick the "Catfight!" dialogue option?[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pvmY9CwCwM[/url] If you pick the paragon options, Ashley calls Liara a "blue bug eyed freak" in addition to the species line.
[QUOTE=Psychokitten;35562684]Even though the Batarians were a non-factor anyway.[/QUOTE] How so? The Hegemony was still a cohesive nation until shortly before the Reapers hit Earth. As soon as the Reapers hit a Mass Relay, shit all went to hell. I don't think much warning was given between the first waves of Batarian refugees and the Reapers entering Sol. Alliance High Command was trying to rally the fleets and they had barely taken up defensive positions before the Reapers hit them. I'm pretty sure the very opening scene of ME3 is when the Alliance realizes the Reapers have arrived in Batarian Space.

Stupid cunt. Go die in a fire. Oh wait you did.

He could have fucking shot his way out and been totally fine in the eyes of the law. Specters adhere to nobody but the Council. Also, he wasted so much time in jail. The Batarians were not going to wage a war on humanity in six months. Tensions would rise, yes, and there may have been race violence, but that's a small price to pay so that Shepard could have done more to prepare for the attack.

Batarian/Human relations had been tense since the Humans started colonizing the Terminus Systems. The nations were a few misteps away from another war. And Shepard had nothing else to do to prepare for the attack. What could he have done?

You know, like on the citadel with Liara running an ops network to track the location of the Reapers, drawing up battle plans with Garrus and making deals with Wrex for when things get hairy. Finding the Rachni queen, making connections etc. . . He could have done a shitload in 6 months.

The nations were a few misteps away from another war. [/QUOTE] Even at the height of the Skyllian Blitz, the Hegemony knew that they couldn't take on Humanity. And Humanity has only grown since, while the extreme isolation has likely weakened the Hegemony. They'd probably step up state-funded terrorism, but I doubt they would go to full-scale war.

They wouldn't pose a threat to humanity even if the humans didn't get help from the other citadel races. They're basically space North Korea. Annoying and dangerous, but by no means a threat on a large scale.

There, he would have been able to drive back Cerberus forces and probably prevent the Illusive Man from ever downloading the Crucible data in the first place. He also might have been able to prevent what happened regarding Sanctuary. Why are you even debating this? Shepard not being in jail for six months would have been far more helpful and productive than him being in jail for six months. The Batarians may have gone to war, but they didn't have enough military strength to seriously challenge the Alliance. It would have been a pretty easy fight. Also, wars are not fought in six months. The Reapers would have invaded and the war would have ended. It wouldn't have been much of an issue either way.

Do you think if the US went up to Iran and slaughtered everyone in Tehran, Iran would just be like "lol i cant win this carry on bud". Iran would have gone into a full out war regardless of whether they would win or not. The Batarians wouldn't have just let the Alliance slaughter their population like that, they would retaliate and at least attempt to completely massacre several Alliance colonies. This means that the Alliance now has to fight against the Batarians, and that weakens both of their militaries. It might have even put the fleets into a position where they wouldn't be able to rally when the Reapers hit. So instead, they blame it on what is essentially a rogue agent. Then they arrest said rogue agent and call it good. The Batarians would still be pissed, but it's a whole lot less likely for them to go into all out war if the Alliance looks like its taking steps to punish the person responsible.

It took a matter of days between the invasion of Batarian space and the invasion of Earth. Like I said, once the Reapers hit a single Mass Relay they went to go ruin everyone's day. Also, why the fuck would Wrex help? He is busy unifying and running an entire planet. Either way, it would have failed horribly because the Krogans helping the Alliance would have been obliterated just like most of the Alliance fleets were.

They're fucking crazy. [editline]14th April 2012[/editline] and wrex would help because he's a fucking bro, you non believing unbro. bros help out when help is needed. that's the bro code.
I find it really weird how the Normandy looks like it's still in the middle of the retrofit the Alliance was giving it but isn't getting any further along. It still has random boxes and those rubber mat things and shit everywhere like it's still being worked on. Kind of annoying.
