Miranda has an awful 'unibutt' with her new armor.

@Obvakhi - I disagree. At least now, the ass shots are focused on the sleek lines of her armour, and not so overt cheap and blatant fanservice.

Apparently, she still wears a breather mask in vacuum and toxic atmospheres. Can't win for everything, I guess...

You don't need to wear a suit and a helmet to protect yourself from vacuum because vacuum doesn't have anything like cold temperture. In fact, you can survive longer with the oxygen mask as long you're pressurized.

And a chlorine atmosphere?

It doesn't do the harmful effect to the human skin, but it will kill you if you breathe it in your lungs.

Oh c'mon, 'dat ass' of hers is her signature body part. It looks like Bioware got lazy and just copy/pasted Femshep's back onto Miranda... they didn't even try to make her look different.

Right. I'll bet it is perfectly harmless on eyes too. /sarcasm

Is that a problem for you, Obvakhi?

@Elyvern

It is, but it does irritate the eyes, like someone use the pepper spray on your face.

You don't need to wear a suit and a helmet to protect yourself from vacuum because vacuum doesn't have anything like cold temperture. In fact, you can survive longer with the oxygen mask as long you're pressurized.

Any justification for breathing masks instead of full helmets is wrong in so many ways that I can't believe anyone would take it seriously:
(1) If your skin is exposed, you will be damaged by radiation and corrosive atmospheres.
(2) If your eyes are exposed, they will dry out in a few minutes from liquid that boils away into the vacuum.
(3) If your ears are exposed, your eardrums could be damaged from pressure differences.
(4) Your suit cannot be made 100% airtight where it touches the skin. Which means, if your skin is exposed at any point, you will not stay pressurized for long.
(5) Even if you could *survive* in a vacuum with some exposed skin, would you *ever* willingly go out into it without a full helmet?

Reference: http://en.wikipedia..../Space_exposure

Just face it: breathing masks are silly. That we are forced to live with them doesn't mean we should overlook that. Look up how today's vacc suits are structured and what they're made to protect you from, and you'll realize that.

How did you get your hands on that?



Anyway, just checked my BW points balance and I seem to have enough, but is it me or dit BW push up their prices for BW points? I mean by big margin?

Also space has sub zero tempretures where there is no close enough star and brain boiling heat where there is!



No air tight suite with tempreture control, in space means death, plain and simple!

The cold isn't that damaging for some time, Breakdown Boy, for the heat has no place to go except to radiate away into space. And the human body is a fairly bad radiator. But that will only hold for a few minutes, and everything else still applies.

I just checked, looks the same to me (560 points for $7, etc).

It's a known bug, BDB. The old prices still apply, when you get to the credit card payment page, the values will right themselves again.

EDIT: Ought you not blank out your personal info on that screenshot?

Yowzah, looks like someone entered the wrong values. At least I hope they entered the wrong values... Also, +1 internet for the Escapist tab. :wizard:

it's a game and i'd rather see miranda's (and other characters faces for that matter) face than look at a mask during conversations. small instances of artistic license should be easy to overlook whilst keeping the suspension of disbelief.

Giving someone no helmet in a vacuum isn't a "small instance of artistic license", but a gaping maw of implausiblity ripping a hole into the fabric of this fictional universe. How many conversations do we have while walking in space in ME2? A little realism in about 2% of the conversations should be easy to overlook and not keep you from enjoying them.

but you're never even in a vacuum with your squad in me2. and you only go to one UNC noxious atmospheric planet (the chlorine one) so what's the point again?
