Now what made me change my mind? The Fem-Shep/Jacob Li scene is what changed my mind. Now --- at first I said...ok --- this is the guy's armor and what not...until he does that maneuver where he pulls his top off for that Harlequen Romance Chick mode.
What the hell? You mean to tell me this fool has been going on away-missions chaffing under that Chip-N-Dales get up of his? Thats crazy and neither does it make sense. You can have a .22 pistol and kill that man if you shot at him long enough. OK... you can MAKE a suggestion that the material of that said " armor" is some how strong enough to deflect shrapnel and bullets. I get it... but... jeez.
So yeah. Totally change my mind --- bring the damn Scorpian, Onyx, and the HMM what ever Specter gear --- but this what these fools are wearing isn't cutting it. I'm surprised any of them survived the collector beam weapons. I mean you can write your own name into the darn metalic blast walls of most ships with that thing!
I change my mind --- the battle wear is rediculous.

Understanded now why people are saying that ME changed "coherence" for "coolness"?
Or coolsh*t, in other words.

I do --- I have been properly schooled.
I think Shepard, Grunt, and Garrus are the only ones who are safe

Pretty much. I'd add Mordin and Thane to the 'safe' list though--tenatively, but still. Mordin's outfit seems to be STG wear underneath a lab coat. Maybe not the best wear, but it's appropriate for his job at least. And at least the gaps in Thane's outfit are explained by his dossier in LotSB--a bit of a shoddy explanation, but at least there is one.

Miranda's high heels and exposed cleavage weren't enough to convince you?
Shepard, Grunt, Garrus, Tali, and Zaeed all have good armor. I suppose Kasumi does too. Her armor looks like it might at least deflect some shrapnel and protect her from the elements, she just needs a helmet. Zaeed's armor is exposed on one arm but otherwise his chest-plate looks like it could absorb several shots even AFTER his shields go down.

You never noticed how Jack was simply wearing a strap of leather on her chest? How she even survived most missions on frigid worlds is beyond me.

Why did you have to wait for Jacob's shirt to come off to notice their combat attire isn't appropriate?
I thought Miranda's painted on outfit would have given that impression, not that i don't like her outfit.

I appreciated that the characters of ME2 wore their own outfits, I really did. But, logically? Any character not wearing a hardsuit or exposing any sort of flesh does not make sense in quite a few contexts.
Maybe ME3 could have unique casual clothes and armor. That would be ideal, I think.

It's streamlined armor for the shooter enthusiast in you.
Can't have any of that dreadfully logical armor it's too encumbersome silly.

i never take any of them on any missions unless its a loyalty one its too stupid to think it would work
take Miranda to a certain UNC and notice how amazingly a rebreather protects her entire face from the 90K winds and huge grating dust clouds that rip through
maybe they all have really awesome barriers and just give shep the old stuff as he's from the past and cant adapt you know like that south park episode

I think the consensus of the general forum is that they usually give her a pass because she's crazy to begin with and she's pretty much a spycho-ish biotic. You can easily grab one of those " well her biotic powers keep her warm" type of excuses and squeeze through for a save.

As for the Miranda bit ---
I have no clue why it didn't occur to me then, I suppose I was giving Miranda a pass for being Miranda --- but it's probably the same issue --- true --- she did just sort of zipped and suddenly it was Girls Gone Wild: The SR2 Normandy in a quick zipper fix. That is also absurd.
I know what it was, I figured Jacob's armor was you know --- armorish --- more so than the rest but the way...that thing just came off like that --- just made it click of the absurd nature of it all.
I mean --- damn -- I could imagine if I had the gear I had in the service with nothing underneath it --- @$@#$ that would have been hell on earth --- there shouldn't be any difference in this regard.
I mean if you were wearing such poor gear on say --- Turchanka with all that debris and crap flying everywhere, your white and black speckled suit would come back yellow caked with your face filled with sand.

Biotic powers also work for you when you're unconscious?
Also, Mordin. Maybe using his latent cut biotic powers.

Of course, at least her outfit had a zipper. Unlike Samara's
Anyway, welcome to the fold. The armor in ME 1 was ugly, but at least it was armor

I really liked garrus's new armor style. If they could make all the armors look different but nothing like the bland me1 armors. ME3 should be very good.
But anyway, i have raised this issue sometimes ago and everyone agree's that it was stupid not to have armor and wear heels

Would love to see that in ME3. Also would be cool if you could customize their armor like
you can yours to some degree.

For ME 3 you should be able to tattoo up your Shepard so you can walk around with no shirt on(male obviously, unless Bioware wants to get hardcore). Just imagine two bad ass biotics(my Shep is a Vanguard) half naked and covered in tattoos going after Harbinger.(In case it isn't obvious the other biotic is Jack)
Sounds interesting to me.

Biotics not wearing armor has some precedent what with Asari commandos/Matriarch Benezia (with her own chest window no less).
I think Samara and Miranda obviously suffered a bit from their outfits but Jack's was totally in character and considering her abilities plausible.

Actually I could imagine Jack wearing armor that has a very heavy-metal look, you know with spikes and chains hanging off of it and painted similar to her tats.

Yes because runnnig around half naked in vacum like places is plausible. There's no excuse, everyone should be wearing armour. Not cat suits, nipple straps or any other thing one can make up that makes no sence.InvaderErl wrote...

Also don't give me the Biotic excuse. Liara wears armour.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't the barriers she can erect as a result of her biotics give her the same protection as a hardsuit more or less?
Also, are we ever actually in a vacuum during ME2?

The commandos/benezia did not wear armor - I don't see what one has to do with the other.

Well, actually, she puts on Samara's face mask when she runs around. But, as I said, do biotics somehow work when a squadmate gets knocked out?

It does not matter. Liara is a biotic and she wears armour. I don't see her running around in high heels, sexual armour, nipple straps or anything. The whole "she is a biotic" excuse for Samara, Miri and Jack is non valid since Liara, who is also a biotic, but wears proper armour.
Maybe in ME3, BW will let squadmates have proper armour this time, not wear things that break immersion.

Again the commandos don't wear armor. I don't get what point you're trying to prove by bringing up Liara since I can bring up the commandos/Benezia. They don't wear armor, therefore it is obviously possible to rely on your kinetic barriers rather than the heavier armor (which is supposed to be the entire point of Asari commandos).
That being said, I wasn't in love with Miranda or Samara's outfits (just as I didn't like Benezia's). I would have definitely been okay with some kind of variation on Miranda's catsuit that was more conservative and that she and Samara loose the heels.
I am more lenient in Jack's case because A. her biotics are insanely overpowered hence it makes sense she'd rely totally on that and B. it fits her character. I honestly forgot she was nearly nude from the waist up after awhile so I think they more or less did okay in that regard, which I found surprising because I HATED her outfit when I first saw it.
