I don't expect a dev reply to this, but i'm really hoping in ME3 we'll get the option to strip off the alliance logos and colours from the normandy and boot off any alliance staff.

Personally i find it annoying that while shep is awaiting trial on earth, the alliance has nicked shep's ship and repainted it as they see fit! My shep's have all stolen that ship from cereberus, its very underhanded for the alliance to join in with the ship stealing!

I wouldn't want the option for every playthrough, but i'd love too see it as an option. I adored telling the council where to stick their 'token' support in ME2 and it would be fun to do the same to the alliance.

I know the game is all about saving earth, but it would be nice to do it as a 'free' agent rather than attached to the alliance/council.

Would anyone else like too see this as an option? :devil:

I didn't know the Alliance was the one who repainted the ship. I just assumed we did it after Cerberus kicks you out and starts hunting you down. It'd make even more sense if your Shep was the one to give the Illusive Man the finger by blowing up the Collector base.

It would be nice to have the option I suppose (I for one wouldn't exercise it, but that's me), but isn't Shepard still part of the Alliance? Even after becoming a Spectre, and even after being killed in action, I think (s)he is still a commander in the Alliance Navy, and the military owns your soul. You can't exactly tell them to shove it.

I agree with this. It's your story so you should choose if you wanna:
  • Be Alliance
  • Cerberus
  • Freelancer
But I don't really mind because
  • The Allicane remodeled the Normandy, so it would be kinda stupid if we would suddenly change it
  • It would be stupid if Alliance would say that "Hey, Shepard. What kind of colour do you want on your ship?"
The Normandy is an Alliance ship, so no wonder they'd put it as Alliance proporty

I can understand your wish, though from an opposite standpoint :) In ME2 I really wanted to get rid of all the cerberus stuff and get the ship and crew into alliance uniforms ASAP. My sheps are 100% alliance. So I can see it must be equally frustrating from your point of view.
I dont think its going to happen though.

Agreed with PantokratorII. My Shepard is loyal to the alliance so its no bother for me, but I bet you get a chance to give your oppinion about the alliance in some way in the game, like in ME2.

Do you really think that Shepard has the ressources and money to maintain a ship like the Normandy 2?
Even this ship needs repairs at a shipyard, especially after the heavy it sustained during the Suicide Mission. Shepard needs the Alliance for that. This is a little bit more then just "token" support.

Agreed. My main Shep is 100% Pro-Alliance, and I wanted to re-paint the SR-2 and strip all of the Cerberus **** off immediately! Heck, I wanted to just go off and fly to the Council/Alliance. But oh well, what are you gonna do?

After making an enemy out of Cerberus in ME1, I was annoyed and very confused as to why I'd be working with them in ME 2.  I hated it.

On the other hand, the Alliance is home.  I've been waiting for the chance to finally return.

Well although its said that Cereberus is funding the mission in ME2 you never hear much about it, shep finds and funds all the credits for squad upgrades, ship fuel and probes and goes off to scan countless planets for resources for ship upgrades, so i figure cereberus can only have been paying the salaries. I can't imagine many people are being fussy about salaries in ME3.

I understand that the alliances support is going to be a lot more substancial than just ship repairs in ME3, but considering they broke up the original normandy team, sealed up all records and a few months after shep died wrote him/her off as a bit bonkers, i'd just really like to have the option to return the favour :devil:

Would be a nice touch if you could get a civilian crew instead, like the cereberus team from ME2 (minus their cereberus connections) i can't see ken, gabby, gardner and kelly joining up with the reapers. I guess i just felt a lot more connected to the crew from ME2 than i did to the ME1 crew. So the thought of returning to a load of nameless people in the dark dreary normandy lighting from ME1 adds a depressive edge to the game for me. (the only screenshot i've seen of the normandy interior for ME3 looked very dark blue and gloomy)

Considering Cerberus stole Alliance blueprints for the Normandy and used those to rebuild and modify the SR2. I can't say as I blame them for claiming it to replace their lost investment in the SR1.
