          discipline yeah i guess..we can't have people running in their underwear through the ship...but in ME1 i didn't care much who was my second in command or  what rank Shepard was...all i knew is that i had to save everyone...i didn't care much that mIranda was appointed second in command in ME2...she was good for the role...but the discussion she had with Jack after we get her from the prison i was thinking....blablabla...wish there was an interrupt there...:D


I'm more sensitive on this because I'm military. But this kind of operation can't work if someone can't follow orders.

I think the discussion after Jack recruitment is totally justified considering Jack's history.


                actually.... i think Miranda was just trying to show  Jack who the boss is....but i never read anywhere of Jack disobeying an order...then again she mostly worked alone
                guess that's why i never was a good soldier...don't much like people yelling at me


Jack doesn't know what an order is. That's the problem.


               she seemed perfectly able to follow order to me...though that might have been just gameplay mechanics


No she just accepts to do what Shepard tell her to do. This is not follow orders, because if Shepard is not here she wouldn't do it.
Orders must be followed even if you don't like the one who give the orders. She's against Miranda leadership during the briefing of the suicide mission, this should not happen.


              Jack was recruited for a certain mission...she was not recruited to be soldier girl ready to followe everyone....and SHepard is in control of the operation in Jack's eyes..so it makes perfect sense to only follow him...u think Miranda follows SHepard in the beginning ?no..she follows the Illusive Man who told her to do what SHepard tells her too...as long as it is in Cerberus needs.....if i was in Jack's position i wouldn't trust Miranda either...but i would sort of trust the one who got me out of the prison...in this case Shepard


No, Miranda follows Shepard's orders, and she reports to TIM.
A military operation can't be controlled by only one man, that's why there is a hierarchy. If Jack doesn't accept it, she should leave.


              and why is this a military operation ?seems more like a rescue operation that then turns into an extermination one....a military operation with just two soldiers seems destined to fail..
              heh maybe we should stop...i don't think we will reach an agreement anythime soon...:P

Yeah, even Garrus disliked Jack and Garrus is probably one of the friendliest people on the ship. Even in tough spot when everyone's ass was on the line Jack refused to take orders from Miri.

I wish Kaidan brings back some of that military feel on board Normandy. Sure the freedom fighter style is fun for while, but I rather have Normandy at the head of Council fleet, with Kaidan, Shepard and Miri on deck. B)


Yes, on the Normandy we follow orders or ...

Not really. Shepard is above any code or law anyway. Shepard did what was right in his eyes ( and in the eyes of general public, at least on my playthroughs ), Jack just did what she did because she didn't like Miranda nor Cerberus. :huh: No matter how important the task or order would've been in larger scale.

Mhm.. Just waiting for the day when they are able to make hair look naturalish. I don't mean it looks bad now, but it could be better, when eyes and lips are perfect, hair is next step!

Good night Yannkee! That's also added to my collection now. :innocent:

Her hair is great, though there's an almost greyish tint to it during the prologue.



Still trying to decide how to treat her in my Paragon Talimancer game. I just know she and Shepard would get on each other's nerves, but the dialogue won't let me reflect that.

Jtav, I helped her out, tried to pry her out of TIMS pocket. Bring her into the fold. Ended up picking the concerned and Neutral options most of the time. and Gently guiding her away from a romance. However Depends on your Shep as always :P

Have you thought of having Tali and Miranda talk to each other?

No, but that doesn't mean they didn't talk at all after she was recruited. I imagine she would try to at least learn more about the people she'll be working with on the field, or keep an eye on people that might try something against Cerberus while on ship (like Jack). Unless you just want to write what has already been established. If so, no they haven't talked beyond Freedom's Progress to our knowledge.

For your story I mean.

As for how to treat Miranda in your game without romance, well, I treated her like a sister. I hated her, but respected her, and did my best to help her out. When she starts talking about the "Best Gens", I just choose to leave, or hit the middle option.

There's a greyish tint to everything in the prologue. Shepard always looks somewhat washed-out here compared to the rest of the game.

I agree. I usually defuse the conflict, but I have no problem at all siding with Miranda. JacK's supposed to leave her problems with Cerberus behind after the loyalty mission, at least until the mission's done.

i wonder what Miranda thinks of a SHepard who romanced Jack...


She rolls her eyes and hopes he doesn't get killed before he stops the Reapers. I don't get the impression that she's exactly pining for Shep or anything. She may even be relieved he isn't interested in her because she doesn't want the temptation he presents. Because she only shows interest if you do, it's easy for me to pretend that a Shepard who doesn't romance her isn't even her type.

                  i got the impression that Miranda has feelings for Shepard anyway..she is just capable in keeping them to herself.....
          Why would Jack get Shepard killed...they way their romance scene ended..she seemed to really care about SHepard...

I think Miranda may have feelings for Shepard, of the kind "there could be something if things were different. Maybe." Nothing serious. The "rolling eyes" response to a Shepard who romanced Jack seems perfectly adequate.  As for Shepard getting killed, you never know - Jack is volatile, you never know what might trigger a killing spree.

I don't think she cares either, and I don't think her feelings go beyond admiration and jealousy, mixed in with mild sexual attraction in some cases. Since I prefer a platonic relationship between them, this suits me very well. She's not romantically interested if the player doesn't want her to be.

I do prefer her romance, but I like that their relationship is interesting without it. It also makes the romance more meaningful.
