Trying to rationalise science and space magic? Good luck

I imagine the matriarchs aren't laughing the blue off Aethyta's ass anymore with the "new relays" idea.

Also, I blame Casey Hudson for the ending being as bad as it was.

Don't know if EVERYTHING is true in this, but it would explain a lot about the ending.

Actually though...it makes sense, and i want to believe it!

[gamer_girl]

I thought it was a pretty good rationalization... No inconsistency with the cutscenes given to us, and produces the desired outcome. Your continued persistence to be hopeless is confusing to me. O_o

No I don't mean you should not try to rationalise what happened, I just feel that explaining sci-fi tech can be a bit hopeless becuase it it could be fully explained by science then it could probably be built anyway. Thats what WAS good about mass effect is they tried for the explanation first, not later, there could be many ways the rings in the relays float about like that and I assumed it was just mass effect fields or somthing. But mabye if they collect all the pieces up they can glue them and then the relay will be fixed


And yes, perfect electromagnetic attraction and equal repulsion is a good idea, they could be held in place with the ME fields.

Well glue would be kind of pointless if mass relays are held together by energy and not adhesive (which they are). Nevertheless I get that you were joking, just thought I'd point that out.

Reaper strengh glue.


Anyway, I think the pieces could be attached, since the keepers can apparently make seamless repairs to the citadel, and if that could be understood then there is a chance to re-fit/rebuild them


Anyway, it won't really matter if we are satisfied with how they are rebuilt, its seems forgone in the non low ems destroy endings that some people will be alive to do so. Besides the realys to me are just a plot device to see Tali lol

Hmmmmm....this would explain a lot. My constant feeling of a tagged-on ending. My feeling that it was rushed. The many inconsistencies.

But that's only one of many possibilities. The truth will come out one day, that's for sure. And that the game has now been found lacking, yes, as proof that the gaming industry has not yet reached the point where it becomes a stable and defined surrounding like the movie industry, is punishment enough for now.

And of course, as I said, I blame Casey Hudson as well. He's lead designer. His job was it to guarantee a consistent and logically concluded game story, and he failed. Period. No question about the ending or endings being bitter or not, they're illogical, and as lead, he had to prevent that. Whatever part he played in it.

Back to Tali. Anybody know Ash Sroka personally?

Unfortunately, no i don't.

The Charon Relay was rebuilt in less than a week due to Lead Engineers Lt. Adam "Danger" Savage and Cpt. James "Walrus" Hyneman, using nothing but an abundant Earth product called "duct tape". The Arcturus Relay, where the Normandy crash-landed, was fixed by Admiral Tali'Zorah vas Normandy and her drone, Chikkita vas Paus, with help of the Normandy crew and something she described as "teh aw3s0m3 scht1ck". Within two weeks, Commander Shepard made contact with Arcturus, repairs began on the Normandy and additional relays, and an impromptu wedding performed by Admiral Hackett was held on board the flagship of the joint galactic forces.

Afterwards, Hackett resigned with the comment that he "missed the simple joys of fishing like when he was a child", and Admiral Jeff "Tug" Benson was appointed new leader of the forces as the most wounded soldier of the whole battle that was still alive.

Hmm hmm hmm *grumble grumble ponders*


We could assume that while the relays blow up most of the explosive energy is "transmitted" to the next relay.

With the luck of the Batarians we can then assume that all the surplus explosive energy gathers at the one relay of their last colony. o.O

EDIT and PS: 

Replaying me2 and just finished Tali's loyalty mission. Awesomest stuff...

Mind i can also envision a drunk tali and ashley singing a duet at the karaoke

They don't even have to edit the cutscene. The mass relays are held together by a type of energy (it would be convenient if it was electromagnetic energy) they are not actually "together". So when that pulse of energy went out from the citadel to shut down/control/merge the reapers, it also caused the relays to release all of their electromagnetic energy in the form of an EMP, temporarily disabling all technology within the blast, and effectively making the parts of the relays drift apart since they are no longer being held together.

This actually isn't too far off from a response I read; I wish i still had the link to it, but it was before PAX so hard to find atm.  Anyway, what was basically said is that the relays overloaded rather than ruptured and went super nova as seen in the Arrival; so billion/trillions of lives weren't lost.  Take that with a grain of salt, if I can find the link I'll post it.

That was beautiful!



I am displeased with the lack of Geth however...  Just kidding.

I liked her on Facebook, that's as close as I got.

And it's obvious the relays didn't go nova like in Arrival. Just look at the cutscenes, the explosions are very different. It seems the relays in the ending forward and spread the Crucible's energy, and then simply break up. Nothing like the big boom from Arrival is seen.

And speaking of big booms: there's a danger in having Jamie and Adam rebuild the relays... failure is always an option.

You may put away your firearm, Miss vas Normandy. I assure you it's quite unnecessary, as I'll freely admit you are adorable without any form of coercion.

As the new human councillor (yeah, I'm replacing Udina as of now), I hereby declare that anyone who fails to realize that Tali's adorable will be declared mentally unsound, and may be interned in a psychriatric institution until reason returns to said person.

This. This is an outrage.

We do need a new Councillor...I for one can go for a Talimancer, especially since Panda Tali Extraordinaire is already taken.

Indeed. Surely, as tali's representative on earth, Gamer should be councillor. If not for earth, then at least the first for Rannoch

[IElitePredatorI]

If we are choosing roles...
Can I be the Geth representative/made up councilor?

As councillor, I will sanction the appointment of Gamer as ambassador for Talimancers everywhere! And also, every Tuesday is Tali Tuesday!

And I'm afraid my esteemed turian colleague just said something about Tali's adorableness and how "he has dismissed that claim". So it looks like we'll be needing a new turian councillor.
