You could also take into consideration the fact that he may not be suggesting everyone just amass and attack, but that politicians stop hiding in their closets and PREPARE to fight rather then running away from the inevitable battle.

So, there's that.

I think it was okey. After all, it's a trailer. The trailer itself was good, though i missed the classic Mass Effect music.

Probably, fighting or dying was what the protheans did and look at how that turned out.

This is as terrible as a political argument, going after soundbites. It was out of context!

No, but I think you were when your mother dropped you on the floor when you were a newborn.

When, in all of Mass Effect, have you ever deviated from that plan? Every time that negotiations break down, what does Shepard almost always resort too?

Since you can't negotiate with the Reapers, guess what Shepard's next plan is going to be? I don't understand why you all think this is so out of character for him. Shepard is a ruthless bastard when he doesn't get his way.

Edit: Also, the trailer would have been *really* stupid if instead of a one liner we got a 12 minute speech about Shepard's battle strategy against the Reaper invasion.

So deal with it.

Well I could say the same thing for Shepard( hints Wrex talk about Krogan Rebellions and First Contact War comparison).

Not much of a plan I have to say. It's the sort of cliche alpha male-gungho-macho talk you'd hear from a typical shooter game. I cringe when I think how FemShep will have to say such atrocious dialogue.

There's nothing wrong with the line, and it's obviously not being submitted as an actual plan.

It's one of those "cowboy up" lines used to raise morale.

Again, I submit to you the thirteen minute long trailer of nothing but Shepard talking about a battle strategy against the Reapers. You can't honestly tell me you think that would have been more entertaining.

Anything can sound stupid when taken out of context.

This is quoted because of the macho level (which appeals to many, and is sound marketing... they generally don't need to make the big punchy marketing for established fans), but in context it probably makes sense. For example, the line could be said when the debate is whether to run away or try and negotiate with the Reapers (Saren-style)... in which case the line would be quite dramatic and make sense: doing anything but fighting the Reapers will lead to our eventual defeat.

Granted, that does not make it a plan, but the point would be that any plan which does not include fighting the Reapers will lead to our death.

What's wrong with one liners?

Long enough they're not overused it's something to giggle about it.

Is there such a trailer? NO there isn't so it's pointless to use such an example for comparison when it's non-existant.

To raise morale? When I hear that from the guy that's meant to be our only hope, the exact thought in my mind is something along the lines of "Well, that's it. We're ****ed."

I have no idea why this line by Commander Shepard raises eyebrows -_-

When he said this during the " Fall of Earth " Trailer : I was like, "Hell Yes !! Damn Right. Let's Kick Some Ass !! :devil:

It also reminds me of what 
  • Genji Kamogawa (鴨川 源二, Kamogawa Genji?)
Head coach and founder of the Kamogawa gym (From Makunochi Ippo) said when Ippo-kun asked him : "Wh-what should I...? "  When victory seemed almost hopeless against the former Amatuer Featherweight Champion : Alexander Volg Zangief. Before the Coach replied his assitant ( I can't recall his name right now ) thought to himself:
"The coach is in a dilemma.But saying nothing will make the boxer even more nervous." The coach finally answered Ippo's question by saying...

"Kid... DO YOUR BEST ! "

The assistant said, "That's it?! That's all to it?!"
Ippo replied, "YES! And gave a strong look of determination... :wizard:

During the Teaser Trailer of the next episode this is what Ippo says:

"Trainer: He trains up boxers' techniques on a one-on-one basis.A mentor who teaches skills through training.He gives advice during the match.He shares the boxer's joy of victory, and sorrow of defeat.That's right.I've been winning because I've always believed in the coach.Just like training, if I keep on goinig, there must definetely be something ahead. Next Episode: Courage to Trust Round 49


In Round 50 The coach and his assistant had a talk about what he told Ippo to do:

Assistant: "Are you sure about sending him out with just "Do your best"? Wouldn't that make him anxious?

Coach: "There are close to 100 meanings behind those words.If the kid can understand 10 of them, I'll be happy."

Suffice to say, that Makunochi's trust was not misplaced...:innocent: And  the coach was "Vindicated" www.youtube.com/watch

When Commander Shepard said, "We fight or we die! That's the the plan..." I knew what he meant, I had no problem seeing him remind the Asari the Salarians the Turians and any else in attendence of what they have already acheived when push came to shove in past Great Wars ( Racchni/Krogan Rebellions ) He could also remind them of how in thier own generation they have already upset the Reapers plans-- and defied them on multiple occasions: Which proves that there many successes are not a fluke...Definition of SUCCESS1 obsolete : outcome, result 2 a[/i] : degree or measure of succeeding b[/i] : favorable or desired outcome; also : the attainment of wealth, favor, or eminence 3 : one that succeeds
--The Battle of the Citadel: The Reapers attempted to return to this galaxy and reclaim control of the Citadel.They Failed.

--Krogan Shock Troops: Virmire Mission. Thrawted once more.

--Collector Base: No one was ever suppose to find out , let alone survive entering it.Commander Shepard's Team did one better.Either destroyed the Base or held on to it...

--Arrival: My favorite response that Shepard gives to Harbinger is "This was a Warning Shot"


The resistance has many weapons at thier disposal.One of which, we first hear of from The Cerberus Daily News: Weaponized FTL Plotters :o  :o :devil: From The War on Taetrus masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Cerberus_Daily_News_-_April_2010#04.2F28.2F2010_-_Taetrus.27_Capital_Obliterated_After_Blast

We don't really know the context of the line in-game or even if it will be in the game.

It was just a marketing ploy to sound "cool" which instead (to me at least) sounded like a ridiculous marketing gimmick that tried to sound cool but failed miserably. But the entire trailer it was in had loud and cheesy rock music blaring the whole time and was a lame attempt at being cool.

Depending on who he is speaking to, it may be sarcasm...

If the other person is one of those who adamantly spent the last two years denying the Reaper threat I'd say it's not unreasonable...
Instead of saying "You sodding idiot! I warned you all two years back! Had you started preparing properly we'll be more ready by now! And now the Reapers are here and you want us to waste time, time we no longer have by the way, planning!? Planning that YOU should have done in the last two years, instead of sitting on your backside doing nothing!", he merely sates there's no time to do anything, by now the only things one can do are fighting and have a slim chance or dying for sure...

Unless something evens the odds...

Shepard actually meant that we literally have to do something to win the war... Talking strategy at a cup of tea is not an option.

Well, it's at least better then Mass Effect 2, which didn't even had a plan.

A variation of this needs to replace the line.
