Found it; There you go


Thank you. I get the feeling knowing that is just going to make me mumble an expletive the way things have been going. Wondering how I can make sure Miranda is always on the right. I see there is a link discussing that. I will check it out.

(Miranda is always in my team, it's been non-negotiable from the start of my first ever playthrough).

In all seriousness I support this 100%. Enjoy it while you can right?


True.

No sense in doing something or making a choice you don't enjoy if you can do otherwise.

I'm going to miss Miranda's combat banter during ME3 though, I'll admit.

"One left!"
"That one hit!"
"Nice shot!"

Okay, this totally justifies replaying Matt. Or maybe Lawrence is my new default Shep.

On subject of the SM, who do you typically pick for each role?


I've done quite a few variations on each playthrough, mainly on supporting team members though and not for the key roles. So my typical set up, which is what I did for my main Male and Femsheps (imports):

Vents: Legion

Fire Team 1: Miranda
Fire Team 2: Garrus

Escort: Mordin - self explanatory as he's the ship medic (alongside Chakwas) plus I sent him through the vents on my very first attempt at the SM (no idea why :mellow:) and surprise surprise he died.

Biotic Bubble: Samara
Bubble fire team: Miranda and Grunt

Final fire team: Miranda and Garrus - these two are my signature team throughout both my main playthroughs. Surprisingly leaving the rest of the team to essentially fend for themselves hasn't turned out too bad - since I like to ensure that everyone is loyal as I'm a completionist but oh well.

Perhaps she meant this picture I posted in the last post on the previous page:

The half visor is definitely better than the whole visor. Still prefer the loyalty outfit though. I do wish someone would mod Shepard's visor. I don't like the vertical arrangement. A horizontal one Garrus-style would be much better.

Looking over Miranda's romance dialogue again, and I must say... I don't much care for how skewed it is for renegade. If you want any real physical interaction with Miranda, you have to pick the renegade options, even if you agree with Shepard's words on the paragon choice more.

A hug should have been given to the "You give your father too much credit" exchange, after Miranda says thank you, then it continues as normal. The kiss can stay where it is.


Like I've already said (probably too many times now), there should have been a paragon option in that dialogue that allowed Miranda to reverse on Shepard from the previous scene if he played the previous one as a renegade (thereby also letting him know she'd been thinking about it) and throwing him back on his heals in a huge way. It would have really intensified things and kept the player on his toes.

I do indeed mean the image. She is *hot* in that armor in a way she isn't in the catsuit.

Tech Specialist: Legion for reasons already mentioned.
Fire Teams: Garrus for both. He's a good leader and no one seems to have a problem with him. I chose Miranda once.
Biotic Bubble: Always Samara. Strongest biotic on the team and definitely the most levelheaded. Loyal or not Shep will trust Samara over Jack any day.
Escort: Mordin. Sent Jacob once. Turned out alright.
Final Squad: Miranda and Tali. I'll be switching Tali for Kasumi since that's my most used squadmate.

I may post my other choices later.


Then you missed out by not picking Jack at least once. Jack really puts the smackdown on the remaining Collectors when they go through that last door. It makes Shepard do a double-take with a look like "Whoa, glad your on *my* team".

Guessing the reaction is the same with Samara. I've had Samara do that job but didn't notice Sheps reaction when she whacked them. I'm not sure how characters are allocated with the cut scene animations. I've always assumed the game engine just swapped out the characters in the animation depending on who you've picked. Does anyone know how that works?

I don't know about you all, but for me this half-visor high-res AAP2 armor makes Miranda even more irresistible than she already was. It's becoming my default outfit.

I can't wait to see her thusly in the window scene.


Sweet.

You mean where she draws in all her energy and blows them all back presumably with a biotic field in the shape of a giant middle finger? Yeah Samara does that as well.  Can't remember if it shows Shepard having a reaction.

Some animations/dialogs are global, meaning any squadmate assigned to that role will do/say those things. Others are character specific. Don't have details as to which is which and in what scene.

I like the half-visor AAP armor, but what I'd like is a script that switches her back to the loyalty outfit when she's onboard the Normandy.

Mmmm... I've been thinking in something. It isn't much related to Miranda, but, what you think about a pairing betwen Oriana and Vega? Could It work?

Possibly.

But Oriana already likes a boy in her class, for what it matters.

Possibly. I'm actually looking forward to finding some Shep/Oriana once the game's out. Provided Shep and Miranda have no romantic history.

Maybe. But it would be interesting to see how Miranda reacts to Vega. Remember, in the dossiers there was that exchange where a well-to-do, educated and (according to Oriana) nice boy is in the picture and Miranda hates him (although in fairness, she could have been teasing her sister). We don't know a whole lot about Jimmy but it seems like he is a blue collar, stand-up guy. I think Miranda would prefer a better pairing for Oriana. That being said, she dated Jacob for a short time and he's as blue collar as they come so who knows.

Either way, I'm all for characters developing relationships with each other. It would go a long way to give them more personality.

*Beeter, what the hell is up with my spelling today?

Shep has the reaction seen in this shot.

What? An excuse to post my dude Shep? Never! :o

Sometimes during the SM, it feels like the Romance with Miri never happened. :(

There was no Romantic Connection. I mean, after you defeat the Human Reaper, when the metal slab falls on Miri and when you lift it off of her, you don't give her some Hug of Relief because she's Alive or anything else.:(

I think Miranda only "hates" Danner in the sense that her sister is romantically interested in him.

In fairness, there isn't a lot of time as in the next minute or so the whole place is going to explode and kill everything inside. Not a lot of time for a romantic pause.

Maybe, although I'd hate to be the poor guy who attempts to ask Oriana out.
