Are the childish insults necessary?

  


Oh whats wrong because the truth of what the alliance was doing as it concerns with Shepard is finally able to be told. the alliance only give a dam about Shepard because he was brought back by Cerberus . They do not care about him. The alliance needs to die in ME 3 and My Shepard and will handle it personally

I would happily discuss this if the OP was a little more civilized in his statement, but no.

  

don't go hating on the Op. because its not his fault you alliance fans can not understand that the alliance does not give a dam about Shepard. 


So the OP gets to be a #$&#*(& because you think he's right? 

Sure, whatever.  Image IPB

The Collectors are all mindless husks. They are basically already dead.Sovereign doesn't count. It is just one reaper.

Sovereign is a gestalt hive-mind of an entire  species in and of itself. The Reapers aren't a species of themselves, but a category of combined individual species, each unique and independent from the rest of the Reapers.


What evidence is there that the programs of a reaper have anything to do with the species that created it? The reapers certainly are a species of themselves. Every human is unique and independant from other humans, that doesn't mean we aren't a species. Harbinger said "Will bring your species into harmony with our own." But even if you discounted that as deleted scenes or something then still: if the human reaper was created it's not a human anymore, it's a reaper. It would still be more closly related to Sovereign than Shepard.

Uh, Sovereign? The whole 'we are each a nation, independent, etc. etc.' spiel? Combine that with how we know just what made the human reaper, and Legion's testimony that Nazara was a gestalt as well, and the fact that no two Reapers yet shown have been alike, and we have some pretty strong indicators about the Reapers.

Reaper is no more a species than organic. Organic is a classification and distinction between, say, the Geth and EDI and the rest of the universe, but it has plenty of sub-groups which can be genocided (the Rachni, the Quarians, etc.).

You only have to read the Cerberus dossier to see just how evil Cerberus is. The fact that you're working in league with them would be a major blow for for the Alliance if it turned out to be true.

When you consider that the game forces you to work for Cerberus wether you want to or not, thanks to the council being a buch of idiots, then not letting you get in contact with the Alliance to let them know what's going on or report on Cerberus activities.  ( And I still think that Bioware missed an opartunity by not letting Shepard work as a double agent for the Alliance/Council after she contacted Anderson to tell him what was going on. )   Is it any wonder that they have a few missgivings about Shepard.

  


the alliance can go the hell in my book.

The emails from LotSB prove, from what hs been screenshotted here, that a major and some of his comrades in the Alliance navy (what was it, naval intel?) want to bring in Shephard and detain him for several months. I think the "Alliance haters" are jumping the gun here.



(Just as the Alliance fans tend to jump the gun other places.)



I'm pretty sure I'm neutral about the Alliance...

Does anyone think it would be kinda cool if the Alliance did throw Shepard in jail, The events following would probably be pretty epic... Shepard gets thrown in prison for aiding Cerberus, then many of his allies come forward to help him Politically or just break him out of Prison, While the threat of the Reapers grows.

  


that would be good for My Shepard then i would have a second reason to destroy the alliance and watch as that punk Anderson die. but on serious not you alliance fans really think they care about Shepard looks like you found out in ME 2 they did not care about Shepard they used him or her for recruitment ads.

No we are not because we see exactly what the alliance cares about and its not Shepard  they only care because he / she was brought back by Cerberus. and plus I am sure they want him to be their lap dog slave with some stupid old and out of date title of spectre so they can keep eyes on him again.

No two humans are alike either. Legion already explained what Sovereign meant went it said "We are each a nation, independent, free of all weakness." We know there is a gestalt hive mind of programs in a reaper. THere is no evidence that they have anything to do with the species used to created a reaper. This isn't like the Borg Collective where individual members of a species are directly assimilated into the hive mind. Reapers are constructed using amassed raw genetic paste which consisted of dead orangics and doesn't consist of any minds like complete raepers have. Even if the progams in the reaper itself are somehow derived from the species that was used to construct it, they aren't members of that species anymore, they aresimply  part of the rearper.

You know, soldiers are people with jobs. And most people in the galaxy will need one. And one that probably would make more of a difference in the Mass Effect Universe than most. They aren't slaves. It's kind of an inextricable part of being in the millitary to have superior officers. It's not like working for a terrorist group will mean nobody will tell Shepard was to do.

A spectre is the difference between someone who is tasked with preserving the galaxy and some random thug who kills people.

I can't really fathom people who say that the options are either alliance, cerberus or lone wolf.Last i checked, there was option 4:The citadel council.You know, your boss (like it or not, but that's what the title entails) if you choose to take back your SPECTRE status? The interspecies government that controlls half the galaxy? Their politics are no better or worse than the other options.
As for the intercepted emails, the only thing it proves that the alliance has a working intelligence branch with more than two working braincells.Of course they would want to question Shepard.It's the job of people like Hackett to weight the merits of their requests and decide on the course of action.So this email exchange also proves that Hackett is not an idiot.Big whoop.

I am all for preserving the galaxy  but as far as the alliance goes they turned their back on My Shepard and  they will pay for their actions. its about how time Bioware allow Shepard to get even with people and groups that do him or her wrong instead of protecting people like Anderson and Kaiden as well Ashley. in both games Shepard has people wanting help from him and her but the min that Cerberus brings him  back the alliance basically starts running a black ops mission against him and  her for no reason other than Cerberus brought Shepard back. its ok for Shepard to be a total bad ass in ME 2 with being a renegade but the min someone does wrong to him / her there is no way to respond. Its wrong and stupid.  The alliance needs to die if Shepard can not get revenge for what they did to him or her.

The request was denied by Hackett, do you really believe for a second that Hackett has the power to stop you getting arrested if you WANT to rejoin the Alliance?

He's the highest ranked officer..........Yes he has the power to stop you from getting arrested.

Okay, so let's say the Alliance doesn't care about Shepard.



TIM does? If anything, Shepard is being forced to be a lapdog for TIM, rather than having a choice between the two.

No but as far as My Shepard is concerned its prove of what they were doing on horizon and was all because he or she was brought back by Cerberus is the only reason the alliance cares. and pay back will come to them one way or another.

Cerberus is a known terrorist organization. Most governments have a zero tolerance policy about terrorists.  

If I was an officer in the army, especially a visible officer in the army, who died during combat operations in Afghanistan then showed up two years later claiming I was resurrected,  financially backed by Osama Bin Laden, sporting a nuclear submarine and cheerfully telling my superiors "hey! he's doing good this time!"  i assume they would have questions.  If they didn't, I would immediately start a campaign to make myself ruler of the universe, because they are obviously gibbering idiots.

The Alliance's and the Council's stance on Cerberus is perfectly understandable.  The fact that someone wanted to detain Shepard for interrogation is actually relatively smart, especially since no one except the VS and the council(? don't remember if anyone else, honestly) had an issue with it.

edit: mah english is bad.

But as each Reaper is derived of a distinct category and race, each Reaper-gestalt is in and of itself unique from a Reaper of another gestalt-origin. Each gestalt is unique of type and origin, according to Sovereign and the Collector Base, and each gestalt is in and of itself a community, according to Legion.

You really blame the alliance for spying on one of their solders that has been reanimated by an organization they consider to be an enemy.

And yet you have no reservation against Cerberus and organization you KNOW is spying on Shepard???

yeah and Shepard wasted a whole game trying to tell those dumb asses in the alliance and the council what was coming but no they all sit on their butts and do nothing. Shepard was killed by the servants of the real enemy in ME 2 and was brought back by Cerberus to stop them. its not  Cerberus's fault that they are smart enough to know what is coming and are hell bent on stopping it. thats just the cold hard facts and if you alliance fans can not deal with it well thats your problem.
