Interesting. Is that regardless of EMS, do we know?


Regardless of EMS, if you can do Synthesis the flag is created. Granted, I'm partial to sending the Reapers straight to robot hell. Mostly because I think that holokid is trying to save his own behind by saying that all synthetics will be destroyed in that ending.

Oh man! I didn't know you were already done with a lot of Chapters! Must read.

EDIT: You certainly made up for the lack of dialogue with great narration.

@Crutch OK then well I keep working on part 2 of the story. I dont know about you but i would like a bit more oversight form Ali Qaiser. Im worried about how each part will flow if hes just gonna slap em together once were all finnished. *Yes Ive said as much to him.* But hes in charge.  As for your character design I can give input if you want I havent yet cus Im not using Faust.
Any yeah I think its best to put our project on the back burner for now. However real quick. That previous post I made about how Mirand finds Shep I wanted to do somthing like that for our project.

I'm not worried about it. After all, what's linking all these stories is Miranda herself. We know her character and we know to keep it consistent. I don't think the parts require anything else tying them together. You can throw references here and there (perhaps a fight on Sanctuary reminds her of a fight from part 1 and she uses a similar tactic) but I think this is meant to be a collection not one long narrative. As well I was under the impression all the parts should be a collaborative effort even if someone different takes the lead for each one. So yeah I'd appreciate your input on Faust and I'll throw in my two cents when needed for the other ones as well.

As for your ideas, we can for sure incorporate them in New Beginnings. Keep in mind though we're rejecting the RGB (somehow). So we don't have to keep the "buried under rubble" schtick. Kind of funny how so many people are using that setup.

Edit: Way to get the Robot Hell song stuck in my head again Doc.;)

Jeez woman, always do demanding. Go write me a script, go save the galaxy, go find me, go make me a sandwhich... :P

@Crutch Ok well that works for me then I canwrite a story that stands on its own but can tie into a larger series. See thats all I wanted to know not hard. :mellow: As for Faust Ill have to look up your post on him again.

In regards to our project. *Mind you I just came up with this now feel free to stab it full of holes* What if we do a modified "R" ending? Shep destroys the reapers but the starchild was a lier*Clearly since he was the creator of the reapers* and he and all the reapers die but the rest of the AI machines are OK. and Shep does the whole burid in rubble thing. Que Miranda, and so on...

Well for one, I'd want the holokid reduced to nothing. I can't actually make him disappear but making him a figment of Shepard's imagination or an active manipulation by the Reapers using his memories is a good enough compromise. I agree he would destroy the Reapers but leave other AIs and the relays intact. But I'm not a fan of actually using one of the "choices" either. I'd rather scrap the whole thing like I did the holokid and go on to something else. What that something is is up for discussion. What I would like is for Shepard to actually take command of the Crucible and whatever it ends up doing to destroy the Reapers, it's him that directs it. And when he is found he's found at the controls, barely alive. So... no rubble:P

I actually posted my thoughts on it in the wordpress. I've categorized it properly now. Feel free to check it out.

hm, sandwhich.... :whistle:

ok, so I'll be less demanding and stabilish priorities, first you save the galaxy, then you write me a script, then you make me a sandwhich and find me at the same time! how about it? :lol:


haha now, seriously, how is the story going? I feel quite lost when writing things, coz i have ideas for a beginning and then the end, and then the middle is missing, and gah, it's always so complicated!

OK well at least you put the list in a reasonable order now lol
As for the story if you mean mine and Crutch's story well look two post above yours and you can see we're both clearly on the same page, everything running smoothly, almost like we're in sync. lol
No really we're just getting started with plot. We're both pretty busy with the Trilogy comic thing.

So guys, what do you think would be a better reuinion scene for Shepard and Miranda?

Shepard finding Miranda, or Miranda finding Shepard? I worked out a cool scenario for each.

For Shepard finding Miranda, I imagine Miranda searching for Shepard, and she's visibly upset because she's losing hope. But then an arm gets put around her waist and it turns out to be Shepard, much to Miranda's happiness. Basically he surprises her.

As for the vice-versa, Miranda calls Shepard's name, softly. When Shepard opens his eyes in the pile of rubble, the first thing he sees is Miranda looking down at him with the Mona Lisa smile. And then he gets up and they embrace.

Either one would be pretty cool, but I'd like the latter better. Thoughts?

Nah, they wrote that line of dialogue "Find me", then Shepard has to do that. Period. Any other way makes that dialogue meaningless.

For me, at least, I have Shepard finding Miranda a few days after the Crucible fires. There's a lot of confusion, even after a battle is won. No way they just reunite....

Okay, I'm pretty sure I've only be gone for a few hours and it seems I missed a lot. =[ What comic?

Oh, I'm not sure if this has been posted here, but it seems the extended cut DLC will have dialogue. http://social.biowar.../index/11682979 Anyone wanna bet they won't even bother to contact Yvonne?

She's about to finish filming I, Frankenstein and it seems she's returning to LA next week.
They should ask her now, before she get busy again with an another project.

With Destroy, Jessica Merizan has confirmed that Shepard's still on the Citadel. Or what's left of it.

What's really interesting is that if you chose Synthesis, Gibbed's Save Editor shows that the "lived to fight another day" flag from Destroy is still generated.

Hmm....the question here is: will any ending generate the "OutInABlazeOfGlory" endgame state? If no, it's meaningless.

Edit:
Checked: this flag is always set, regardless of choice, regardless of EMS. Likely it doesn't mean anything but that this saved game is available for a NG+ import. Also note that the values are named the same as in ME2.

About Shepard finding Miranda:

Shepard: (opens eyes to see Miranda hovering over him) Found you.

Miranda: (smiles) Yes you did. Although you did let me spend two weeks thinking you were dead you bastard.

Shepard: Won't happen again.

Miranda: I'll hold you to that. (kisses Shepard)

Also, in anticipation of the Avengers I finally found a clip that shows what Miranda should have been doing in ME3/

If Bioware wants Yvonne, they'll get her.  It just depends on them.  They can work around her schedule.

You know which line we don't give any credit to? I personally love Miranda's "I wish I was there...with you" line. Maybe since the "Finish this and find me" line overshadowed it.

That makes me think of a scenario where Miranda is with Shepard at the end instead of Anderson. Being forced to shoot her *shudder*. As long as it's my imagination, I can make her survive. A Mac Walters ending would've had her dead.

This is so happy... unlike the ending.

Actually, my first interpreation was Miranda looking with sorrow to a picture taken before ME3 after Shepard did not return from the Citadel.


"Finish this, and find me." It's bittersweet, I like it a lot.


yeah, that's pretty much it. I'm glad I could make it 'understandable' somehow, thanks

It's like the feeling I have with the game itself. It's much like a broken pomise, but you still have that feeling down there that somehow that will be fullfilled.

I haven't interpreted the line in that way, but I agree about the ending feeling like a broken promise. Miranda's scene is bad in that regard, but Garrus' is worse: there he was joking about retiring to a nice tropical world, and where does he end up? On a nice tropical world, only without femShep and probably with food he can't eat. Smashing.

BTW, I've been playing ME2. It really brings home how little there is of Miranda in ME3. :(

Apparently. My FemShep didn't get it.

She procured the fighter as a military craft to get her team to where it needed to be, not primarily to take part in space battles.

I could be wrong, but I don't think the fighter can hold any more than two people. Like I said already, anyway, I'm not against the idea but it does seem tacked-on which is why it might seem out of character.

There are lore inconsistencies here. The ME1 Codex says a fighter is a one-man short-range craft (one-man seems implausible so I'd go with two), but in the ME2 Codex it's implied that there are FTL-capable fighters (see the A-61 Mantis Gunship entry). Also Miranda must have a way to move her team from place to place, so that means either several fighters or one larger ship. It seems someone forgot or chose to disregard the lore.

BTW, I read the newest chapters of your fanfic. The TIM encounter is very good, but I think Miranda overthinks her behaviour in the Shepard encounter. And....even if she does, the reader doesn't have to know every detail of her thinking process. It has an adverse affect on the flow of the dialogue. I also think that at this point of the romance, her behaviour in the romance part would be intuitive rather than calculated. At least it shouldn't appear quite as calculated as you make it.
