Let it be optional please. I'm with Zaeed when it comes to batarians

[Skilled Seeker]

Sure make it optional. But if you kill the batarian then the Reapers win.

I want my ignorant Shep to ask him about his eyes and which set I should stare at.

You have to look at all eyes for else!!

Me personally? I would hate to see a Batarian considering we have so many other good squad mates to choose from, and the fact I simply hate Batarians doesn't help much either. Just saying.

[FrancisKitt]

I've got a colonist (who'd work with a batarian), but I'm so putting that banner in my sig anyway.

  I would even though I have a war hero.

[FrancisKitt]

My colonist is also ruthless.



Yeah.

[Mako Zalos]

Well then..... nothing to say to that, okay maybe it should at least be optional, but I still support the idea

[CARL_DF90]

Meh, the Batarian in question better be either super useful, or have some really important information.

[Mako Zalos]

Yeah have to agree with that as well.

I believe we would like every squaddie to be very useful

[Iniuria]

Here's a scenario to introduce batarian squaddie:



-At some point, Shepard gets captured (oh no). Lalala S/he gets stuck with a Batarian. Shep can do the following:

-Kill batarian because s/he can't trust him NOT to mess up escape attempt

-Use batarian, and then kill him

-Use batarian, and then let him go

-Use batarian, and go "ohey, you're useful and/or bringing you along would cause EPIC LOLZ among the council, how'd you like to be in my squad?"



I dunno, just my two cents XD





Also, a motivational type take on the banner:

[The Smoking Man]

I think we could use some guddamn terrorists. Put their asteroid-dropping skills to use against the Reapers.

[llerassap.knarf]

A Batarian squad mate would be great as long as there is some sort of conflict between him and Shepard. Making the squadmate mandatory on the mission like Miranda and Jacob would allow for such a thing. What about Vorch or Volus?

[FrancisKitt]

A) Too dumb

Not built for it



Really, the only race that we haven't had that are both clever and physically cut out for it are the batarians. I support an elcor artillery platform though.

[Netem]

Why wouldn't a Colonist/Ruthless/War Hero want a Batarian squadmate? It would be perhaps THE best opportunity for character development!

[Iniuria]

Well, a vorcha would be a perfect meat shield (they're so friggin' annoying the enemy would empty clips into it to make it shut up) and a volus... well, they're so hilariously combat-inept that the enemy would be rofling too hard to notice everyone else shooting them.


My "canon" Shepard is a colonist AND ruthless, and did a certain renegade thing in BDtS. She's practical though and would see the use of a Batarian if the situation presented itself. Plus, I feel as though the council would FREAK OUT if you had a batarian with you, and I want to see that happen. Dear Bioware: MAKE IT HAPPEN.

I've been thinking about this a lot. Why can't we have a ruthless batarian squadmate in ME3? Garrus had one in his team so why can't we?

My Ruthless Colony born Shephard says NO! They are the only alien species I have no connection with and show NO MERCY for. They anger me just by talking. They sound like mini Reapers.

[Big stupid jellyfish]

What would you all as players say, though? Many forumites here name their Shepards as a reason not to have a batarian. I appreciate the fact that you roleplay your characters; but you are not your Shepards.

Your Shepard may distrust and hate someone you as a player consider an interesting and worthy character.

Yeah if he poisons me i'll have to blind him one eye at a time >_<

I hope Mass Effect 3 includes some sort of quest to ally all the various factions of the galaxy against the Reapers. Do you accept the Batarians as cannon fodder against the Reapers, or commit mass genocide against them to prevent their interference? (and because we all want to) 

If this were the case, a squadmate per faction would make sense. Maybe recruitment/loyalty missions could be tied in to faction loyalty?

[PiEman]

It should also be romanceable...

Yes, fraction loyality isn't a bad idea.

But no, not everyone wants to [commit mass genocide/do something nasty to Batarians].
