hmm i've just noticed there's no ammo lying around on the battlefields - does that means we will be able to acquire it more realistically only through dropped weapons and the like?

also: the soldier on the bed shot looks suspiciously like shepard's cabin on the normandy?

Sanders....

no one?..

Really?

i have to be the one to make this joke?

<epic pic>

the pronz of James sanders will be Hilarious. And fairly disturbing.

On topic
interesting.

I support Colonel Sanders as a squadmate for ME3.

It would be hilarious if that was is actual rank in the Alliance. 

[snfonseka]

This sounds good. But I am not going to overly excited about this. Because I had the same excitement for DA2, but after starting to play the game the feeling is different.

Also regarding "ME1's Decisions such as sparing the Rachni will have a grave impact in ME3": I think that this would be a positive effect given the way that Paragons have positive effects for their every action.

When I first read about the Maw vs. Reaper battle, I thought it was a joke made by the user. I'm probably alone with this, but to me that just sounds silly....as I have beaten Maws on foot...with a pistol...

They actually already hinted at it in last year's Cerberus Daily News.


A photo taken by Clan Ravanor miners during a drilling operation on the
krogan homeworld of Tuchanka is reigniting debate on the existence of a
colossal thresher maw. The photo, now being viewed widely on the
extranet, adds to a long line of evidence that skeptics call an old and
treasured hoax — and believers call irrefutable proof. For centuries,
krogan settlements bordering Tuchanka’s deserts have told stories of
entire clans swallowed by this colossal thresher maw. While locals claim
the ancient creature is real, no outside sources have confirmed the
beast’s existence.

Good find f1r3storm! Haha, this stuff is so epic.

I haven't been following the CDN, so thanks for pointing that particular one out. That would actually make it more believable, if it turned out to be this ancient, giant Thresher Maw.

I understand why that dev was pissed about the Maw vs Reaper showdown getting leaked.  People would have crapped bricks if they hadn't expected that.  That scene alone is better than any set piece shown so far in the ME series.  I'm guessing someone got asked what their favorite part of ME3 was and they blurted this out without thinking.

I just want one squad member to say this," What the hell just happened? ".

That's the derscription of a battle between a maw and a reaper (rewritten from gameinformer issue)

Thresher Maw VS Reaper Clash
As daunting as the opposition is, Shepard may get some help from unexpected places.
In one story-boarded sequence we saw. Shepard is in a column of Krogan vehicles as
an advancing Reaper devastates the surroundings. A damaged turian fighter crashes into
the column destroying Shepard's vehicle as the hulking foe moves forward. On foot and
faced with a hopeless battle, all seems lost until a Thresher Maw bursts from ground
and begins grappling with the Reaper. Shepard runs underfoot as the two titanic creatures
clash overhead, and the Thresher Maw gains the upper hand by constricting itself around
the Reaper and pulling the machine under the sand. The struggle appears to be won, but then
lasers begin bursting through the ground, indicating that Shepard should probably get out of
there as fast as possible.

C++ Harbinger

I just imagine what kind of pain Harbinger feels when he need to assume control on C++ instead of Reaper++ that was optimised in many 50000 year development cycles! 

But there is no pain, there is no fear, there is only ... annoyance... so i imagine what kind of annoyance he feels...

Maws were never treated as a credible threat considering you could melee one to death. But that was more because of ME1 broken combat and lackluster exploration. They were given better treatment in 2, but being confined to an arena while it conveniently dug around and popped up in the same predictable spots sort of trivialized the experience. Here's hoping they get the Maws in 3 right.

[Ieldra]

Hmm... that a thresher maw - even a giant one - has a chance against a Reaper significantly reduces the Reapers' level of badass, don't you think? The only way to make that plausible is that they aren't all as tough as Sovereign.

Looks like that to me, too. Though the design could be fairly common so I'm not putting my money on it being Shep's cabin.

I definitely have to wonder how resistant to Maw acid a Reaper is.

Maw acid ignores shielding. Clearly, that is the Reaper's weakness. Considering it only took the main gun of the Normandy to take down Sovereign once it's shielding was disabled. Thresher Acid Ammo type, here I come.

[DaVanguard]

^That or its a really really big Maw

Does anyone wonder if that's a......dun dun dun female Batarian?
I mean, in all likely hood, probably not, I mean why would Cerberus recruit a batarian.....unless she was a skilled assassin...?

Look at the 4 red eyes on the helmet..

Thoughts?

Yes, this strongly hints it's a female batarian.

Not necessarily, the Kestral helmet doesn't have a visor, does that mean the humans of the Mass Effect universe no longer have eyes?

[Fluffy Pyro]

Or we get all the Rachni to spit upwards during a Reaper invasion. Melt their armor. That'll teach them a lesson.

This and you can easily identify her as yet another Cerberus assassin by her armor's color palette and kneepieces, which look exactly like Jacob and Miranda's. There are assassins concepts everywhere in that issue - the one that jumps on Shep's bed from the broken window in his room on the Normandy, the "Raiden" guy with freaky arms and eyes on the same page as Sanders' profile, this woman with a blade, some Cerberus troops out for Shep's blood. Check it out. And I very much doubt that Cerberus would hire other species as their top assassins.

no, the huge hammer is used to attract any/all species to the site specifically for the rite - maws included, but they are supposed to be very rare. it would be ridiculous to think that every single krogan fights a maw - let alone if thry couldn't win just wait-it-out - where? and for how long? till they run out of power for the hammer? 

From the ME wiki:-

Young krogan undergo a rite of passage that is overseen by a shaman respective to the clan the krogan wishes to join. In clan Urdnot, this rite consists of battling various wild fauna on Tuchanka, ending with an encounter with a thresher maw. Merely surviving for five minutes is considered proof of worthiness, but killing the thresher maw increases the initiate's prestige and standing.

True that. It's pretty close to an exact copy. Even the window position seems to perfectly match. Exciting.

It is actual normandy window, lights off ect beacause we stealing it again, as was told - alliance thinks that this is theirs (bastards) and they took it to scan and took it apart... and rebuilded (?). 
There must be an option to screw those who responsible for this.

Aww come on Think back to your first playthrough on Mass Effect 1, the very very first time you ever saw a thresher maw

"The spice must flow." was my first thought

I rofled. Seriously

[Aramintai]

Did anyone notice a hanar from Fornax magazine on the wall behind that assassin jumping on Shep's bed on the Normandy?
