i can just see the headline and article for the CDN on the day that me3 is released: TERRA ATTACKED!!!!!!!! Just a few hours ago a massive fleet (of what was long thought to be a myth) of reapers just came out of the acturus relay and has laid seige to Terra. the attack is said to be still going on, we have confirmed attacks on london so far, the death count so far is 2 million. Commander Shepard, who has always said that the reapers were real, was on a space station in orbit during the attack . Reports have indicated that Commander Shepard is assembling a new to team and allies in the galactic community to launch a counterattack on Terra and to drive the reapers off Terra and out of our galaxy forever. i know that is a little dramatic but it fits.LOL

Hmm interesting. Of course i was mixing some of our understanding of today, with that of the me universe. These are quite obviously two different things. During hibernation, it would make sense to be in orbit. That way, no matter what, they would be on the edge of the galaxy upon awakening. I suspect there is a lot more to come in regard to dark energy/dark matter and that it has some part to play in how they got from dark space to the galaxy. Also, from the edge of the galaxy to the centre, the solar system (sol) is only about a third in (two thirds from the centre.)
Yeah the system is quite close to the edge of the galaxy. Also, the Reapers' technology seems to heavily revolve around dark energy so I believe dark energy is definitely gonna play a part in getting them to Earth, whether its through making the Haestrom star go supernova or through some other method.
Due to the dark energy detected at the star at haestrom, its a bang cert to me. Once it destabalises, i cant really see another outcome other than supernova. The question for me would be, how much mass, and whether a black hole would result?
My thoughts exactly. Also, this post got me thinking: http://social.biowar...470776#5471250. What if the continued use of the mass relays over millions and millions of years has resulted in the release of an exponentially huge amount of dark energy. Dark energy is the name given to the mysterious force that is driving galaxies apart and increasing the rate of expansion of the universe. The Big Rip theory claims that billions or even trillions of years from now, dark energy will be not only pushing galaxies apart, but also causing galaxies to disintegrate by forcing stars away from each other, and then it will start splitting up solar system eventually resulting in the splitting of fundamental particles. What if this excess amount of dark energy produced by mass relays is causing the galaxy to become unstable and Haestrom's sun is just the start. More stars could start becoming unstable due to dark energy in their cores and stars could start drifting apart.
This sounds like a complete longshot though

Have you played against a preatorian on insanity!? It took my soldier 5 deaths and 1 hour to take him out. Ran out of ammo half way and had to take it down with the combined power of Grunt's, Zaeed's and Shepard's concussive shots!!!!
It was horrible!!!! I can't imagine my main Shepard, he's an adept.

Hmm, the dark energy from over use of relays is very interesting indeed. For me, the star at haestrom is something more specific. that star is in the outer rim. surely the relays further in the terminus systems or citadel space are used much more often? the outer rim is in geth space, and they stayed put for 200 years or more, so surely another star would have problems before the one near haestrom??? this to me, just seems more sinister and deliberate. I had forgotten about Gianna's conversation and the corporations of Noveria's interest in dark energy. Absoloutly fascinating stuff!! Also, the reapers claim that they are 'our salvation through destruction' springs to mind when considering your excess energy theory. Maybe ultimate destruction of our galaxy is part of it. hmm, need to consider that further. brilliant stuff|!

You are right, teh mass relays at teh centre of teh galaxy should be more often used and therefore it would be more appropriate for a central star to have the problem. Haestrom is almost definitely something more sinister. Another theory just popped into my head also, what if, the Reapers, in their desperation, dismantled one or more more their own in order to construct a mass relay in dark space to shoot them to Earth.
Ok, Im seriously having alot of fun coming up with all this at 4am over here.

i too had forgotten about Gianna's talk about dark energy, this changes things slightly

Only part i found near impossible to do was the ambush on the collector ship. I did my insanity playthough using a Infiltrator so it wasn't too difficult - having a cloak and sniper rifle are a great way to deal damage and limit the amout you take (unless you have harbinger constantly knocking you out of cover with his silly warp thing)

hmm, yeh its very interesting isnt it. It tells us that others are considering the potential of dark energy whether it be the consequences or the possibility of profit. But do they know something we dont, or something shepard doesnt? thats the real question...

i love the infiltrator, but on insanity i could not get past horizon. However, i never attempted this on a new game +. i.e, always started from lvl 5 at the start, never lvl 30. Maybe that would help, starting as a lvl30 infiltrator and being maxed out at horizon?

I heard that starting at Level 30 on insanity is extremely difficult at the beginning. You have no upgrades and all your enemies are extremely aggressive. It should get better as you go along though.

Is the Citadel is one giant mass relay, don't the Reapers need a mass relay in dark space to get to it once they have been signaled?

well there has to be some faster than light means the reapers used, the question is how? we proprably just don't know about it.
