Not being able to skip the opening cut scene....I've seen it, it's depressing stop making me watch them every time I start again. Also you can't skip the leaving Illium one either and that annoys me as well.

I would have to say --- the whole " Commander" thing ... what is he a Commander of at this point as he has technically died --- not really Alliance Affiliated as he doesn't have military personel from them under him... he should be called Captain as he is the Captain of the Normandy SR2.

Shepard shoulda been called captain since the second Anderson stepped down in Mass Effect 1.

Real life story: My dad was a lieutenant when he took his first command. Guess what his crew called him? Captain. When he was made XO of the squadron they went back to calling him Lieutenant. That's how it works.

4. A face mask will not protect you from hard vacuum, extreme temperatures or your eyes from toxic gases like chlorine. I know you want the game to look cool. Make cool helmets. They can be retractable, as has been suggested elsewhere.


I can't believe I forgot about this. It goes right up there with the high heels (and excessive cleavage). All the characters should have had fully sealed environment suits. Grunt I'll give a pass since only his forearms are exposed and he's a krogan. Everyone else though would be walking around with third degree burns, frost bite, and/or ruptured ear-drums.

I guess that's why Tali, Legion, and Garrus (and Grunt) are so awesome.

2. If Joker is covering your escape from the collector base with an assault rifle (that magically doesn't break his arm), who's flying the ship? Shouldn't someone else be doing that?


Someone is: EDI.  She did it during the Collector attack too.  That and I'm sure that autopilot technology capable of just floating in one spot and then moving off in a straight line while the pilot heads back to the cockpit exists.  The skycars have autopilots that are capable of much more than that, so I'm pretty sure the military-grade versions can do that too.

Granted, but you'd think with Joker's medical condition there'd be someone else who could do that without as great a risk of injury.

Also, I didn't think about the forum blocking the word for the sound a gun makes when you manually chamber a round, but I suppose that makes sense.

Indeed, manually chambering a round doesn't make sense given how ammo has been described in the Mass Effect universe.

If you think about it, it makes about as much sense as a suppressor on a revolver. Always funny to see that in a movie.

Honestly I like how Shepard is referred to as commander, I couldnt take her seriosuly if she wasnt, it would be like woah what? She never actually recieved the formal title of captain and now shes not military so ya.



As for the face mask ya, I love samaras outfit cause it seems like a samurai whoz not afraid to show herself off but its not that cool in battle. As a casual yup I love it.



A small nitpick, very small but one nonetheless. Have someway to lock your powers in your HUD, Ive accedentally dragged them too many times instead of using them. And on insanity it can kill you.



But I love the game nonetheless, its my #1

That's probably why they didn't do it.  The title of captain isn't formally given, it's just conferred on the commanding officer of a naval vessel by common tradition.  The rank however is.  And civilian ships still work that way, too.  At least ones with large enough professional crews that don't just refer to each other by their first names.

Oh definitely.

1) Being able to fire on a target but if you scope from the same position you end up staring at the 'cover' you are standing beside or looking over.

2) Bad camera angles in combat in close quarters that change the view ithout input from you such that you cannot really fight. This is particularly bad, I find, when doing Tali's mission. I really hate that part when you are on a balcony above geth trying to shoot down at them and you cant follow them as they move because the camera has shifted and wont shift to allow you to target them.

3) Cover mechanics that wont allow you to shoot at someone who has come up on your open flank without you having to step out from the cover.

Realistically someone with any significant handicaps would have been prevented from joining the Systems Alliance military all together. Joker's condition makes him a liability to whomever he is serving with and puts others in danger. We saw direct examples of this twice in ME2. Prior to that I'd always secretly suspected that his syndrome was actually just a joke, a funny excuse for why he we never saw him get out of that chair.

You know, like that guy on Sealab 2021.

Oh, and another nitpicky thing. Wrex's armor in ME2 isn't cool enough. He needs awesome armor. He's Wrex.

Even Uvenk has cooler armor than Wrex. Unacceptable.

Yeah, it's just usually stupid and indefensible.  Still works on some guns and with some suppressors.

I would appreciate it if they made the paragon/renegade points more balanced. I don't want to feel as if I always have to choose the paragon route just to make sure I get enough points to solve at least one situation correctly. I'm looking at you "Miranda/Jack fight".



They really need to find some way for people to enjoy the game making the decisions they want and not have to worry about getting red or blue points.

super minor silly thing. In ME1 when I take Juliana's daughter back, I usually end up shooting Jeong and she says something about - what are we coming to shooting each other in the back - and I just sort of yell back at her I didn't shoot him in the back I shot him facing me with a gun.



I also liked the map in ME1 better and in ME 2 Miranda and Jack need a suit if they are going out into environments that can eat your skin away. I liked ME1 everyone wears a space suit when you leave the ship and go to a hostile planet. I don't mind them wearing street clothing if we are in a town or city. In fact I wouldn't mind Shepard wearing street clothing - with a pistol tucked somewhere for fighting purposes.

That seems less like a nitpicking concern and more like a major one. A major one that's shared by a lot of people.

Yeah, it's enough for me to cheat to max out my Paragon/Renegade scores immediately after getting control of my character.

It really bugs me that we see background stars physically moving in various locations like the observatories on the crew deck and the cockpit.

Other then that, yeah, exposed skin and high heels are big offenders.

I also hate gameplay mechanics which are just plain stupid and obviously contrived.  Two good examples would be the pathetically retarded human Reaper fight at the end of the game and the equally retarded Fail-head platforming in the Firewalker DLC.

Seriously, WTF was Bioware thinking?

Not necessarily. The game plays fine with the current system they have now. To add a paragade option is not hard. They just have to be convinced it is necessary.

EDIT: And by paragade I mean add the total of paragon and renegade together. And make that count!

One of people's biggest and loudest complaints is that ME's morality system inhibits effective roleplaying. Rather than make the decision you feel is personally appropriate you must play the system. There is no room for moral ambiguity. It's hailed as a big flaw.

I buy the human Reaper itself far more than I do the actual fight with it.

Like, the shape being the same as a kind of reproduction is one thing, but having its arms function and shooting out of its chest was too much.

What do you think of my suggestion though? Combine your renegade and pargon in order to make it "paragade" points.

I like it, it shows that you cant please everyone. I did a playthrough, just because, and picked no renegade or paragon just because and I still came out of the suicide mission with everyone, minus 3 loyalties. I liked what it showed you in the background. Plus I have a renegon infiltrator thats a non meta gaming one. My canon one, and well shes 80% renegade and 40% paragon and somethings (Tali vs Legion) she couldnt settle right away and had to talk to Legion after. I really dont like how people want an instant make everyone happy button.

It works on the fact that you do renegade stuff people will respond to that more, you do good (paragon) stuff people again will respond differently to it. But again its an opinion, I just hope they keep the same paragon/renegade system they have. I doubt they will change it cause its been there for 2 games, plus how are they going to handle imports of that score if they change it. :wizard:

Yeah, that's just the writer using an idiom without thinking about the literal meaning in that context.   Woulda been better if she'd said "And now we're turning on each other?"  Probably could've gotten away with "stabbing each other in the back" as that would be obviously figurative.  The best thing to have done would have been to add in a dialogue option so Shep could actually say "I didn't shoot anyone in the back, lady.  I shot him in the face" if you wanted. 

Personally, I can't kill Jeong anymore because if you do, Juliana suddenly starts talking like she knows all about the Thorian even though she hadn't even heard the name until approximately two seconds before, which bugs me far more than he does.  If you Charm/Initimidate him instead, she doesn't do that.
