I assume that a Bioware rep posted this and I missed it, but has it been confirmed that this ^ pic is indeed Admiral Hackett, and that Admiral Hackett does indeed make an appearance in the DLC?Phaedon wrote...
Admiral Steven Hackett

So, supplying arms to somebody isn't now counted as having a deal? Interesting. I guess the Alliance paid tribute to Darrius then...Phaedon wrote...
But the Alliance never had a deal with Sa-um Darius, that's the whole point of negotiating in the first place.Yep. It's pretty much the story of Saddam and the NeoCon America. They supported him to counterbalance Iran in the region, and to sabotage the oil prices to screw up the Soviet Union. Then the Soviet Union got screwed and Saddam got greedy, attacked Kuwait and whatnot. So they squashed him but not completely. Kept him around for "just in case". Finally he outlived his usefulness, got toppled and hanged.
Well the problem is, most things TIM does, are about making Cerberus more powerful, not defeating the Reapers, so they are definitely not necessary.Ghost Warrior wrote...
I prefer TIM.Unlike Hackett,he is ready to do what is necessary,even if it's morally questionable

I think, someone needs to go back to ME1 and play through the "UNC: Negotiation" mission. It'll help them realize that Hackett is, in fact, an uber-renegade (as any man in his position should be), and just as manipulative as TIM, and generally wake up. Maybe it will then come as less of a surprize when Hackett arrests them in the end of the Arrival DLC.
Been there, done that. Shepard's renegade attitude obviously offends Hackett since he rubs it in Shepards' face.
Shepard: You used me!
Hackett: Did you think you're the only one who can bend the rules?
Hackett is obviously no full-blown Renegade, he requests several times in several missions that you save human lives if at all possible and he smooches your butt when you do Paragon stuff. He's an Admiral for Christ's sake. In a modern military, you can't be flyin' solo and be an Admiral. You'll have shown repeatedly that you're a team player who works within the rules and is politically savvy. Like Jacob says, the Alliance is always on the lookout for people who rock the boat. The renegade is clearly modeled after someone like Riddick in the Pitch Black series - a loner who works with people only when he has to, a person with little patience who gets the job done but doesn't make friends along the way.

Anyway, as I said, the Alliance didn't have any deal with Darius.

Of course it didn't. Just like the Alliance never had anything to do with Cerberus, or the Corsairs, of the BAaT, or any other stuff they outsourced to go rogue. Nevermind they'd gone rogue themselves when they kicked the Turian butt at Shanxi without the earthworms' approval.

And that's why he isn't just glad you finish missions in a paragon way because they tend to be less messy.Yakko77 wrote...
As for Hackett being a Renegade, no freakin' way. He's too complimentary of all my Paragon Sheps for getting missions done without losing any hostages and such. The man shows too much appreciation for getting the job done in the most moral and ethical way possible to be a renegade. There was one mission where I didn't lose any hostages and I replied, "Just doing my job" and the Admiral expresses he wishes he had more officers who shared my definition of "just doing my job"... or something like that.

Dunno, it's pretty obvious that the point of negotiating with someone extorting you is obviously the fact that you already have a deal with him. Even though you need to negotiate in the first place to make a deal, and that person is angry to see that you sent a representative.NKKKK wrote...

Some might think so I suspect. In any case it doesn't work very well for TIMmy and Cerberus as they have managed to make themselves enemies with everyone. And having only enemies may make you look like a cool bully in some peoples eyes but it does also make you very weak.Phaedon wrote...

If I killed Udina and became an ambassador would I be cooler because I do everything necessary for me becoming an Ambassador?

He treats Shepard like sh*t, because that's what he thinks that he is. A full renegade.
Phaedon wrote...
Mad? Might have to do with the Renegade Shepard proving useless and setting a deal with outrageous demands, something which you will notice that Hackett doesn't want. That was the point of sending Renegade Shepard and not any other Shepard...
