A cruiser would just be clumsy. Not to mention that they would never be able to pick up Shepard from Earth that fast.

Actually the SR2 is closer to being a Cruiser then a Frigate almost, given that it's twice the size of the original. If I remember correctly the SR2 isn't suppose to be capable of landing planetside hence the need for the Kodiak Shuttle in the first place. Which makes the scene in ME3 where the Normandy flies in low to pick up Shepard a bit suspect.

I'm really starting to think I should just not read the Codex since nothing seems to adhere to it. (Although to be fair ME1 had inconsistencies too, some pretty glaring scale problems with the description of the Citadel. Actually there's was always a lot of scale problems present. So my nerd is just getting the better of me it seems.)

Anyways...

The SR2 is being heavily remodeled so it'll be close to being a new version of the SR2. I do admit I still miss the original cozy Submarine feel of the original. Felt like a Warship. I dunno what to think about SR2 just that it's overly bright and shiney really. Makes sense in places like the Mess Hall (which is actually rather dimly lit), Med-Bay, and Cargo areas since you want to be to see stuff. But the C.I.C. really shouldn't be overly bright since everyone's going to be looking at screens and stuff, etc.

This is how it probably gong to go down if the Alliance DARES give my fully upgraded, awesome Normandy, to Ashley:
Ash: So, since your new aboard, I'd like to show you around my ship...
Shep: You mean my ship!
Ash: Well actually, the Alliance gave this ship to me as a gift for being a specter, so things have changed a bit here.
Shep: Well, as I recall, I was the one who invested million f credits into this thing, took it to the collector base, and destroyed yet another reaper, and stopped the abduction of colonists that you people in the alliance were to useless to stop!
Ash: Well I' sorry but... (thud, she is pistol whipped)
Shep: Well, I am sorry that you have to keep on being such a ****, as that was I really good pistol Tali just cracked on your skull.
As: What?! How did Tali get in here? We imprisoned your crew when you were on trial!
Shep: Well luckily for Tali, she is really good at climbing through air ducts, honed i the collector base, while you were strutting around calling me a traitor. That, and having sex with me.
Ash: What, you cheated on me?!
She: As I recall, you dumped me on Horizon after calling me a traitor, even though I was saving human colonies.
Ash: I can't believe you cheated on me with a bucket head.. (thud, gets pistol whipped by Tali again)
Shep: k, you can quit talking you racist, as you're goin to the brig of MY ship, and Tali, Legion and I are going to kick some Reaper @SS!

LOL, someone's butthurt...

And she has leather seats!

Exactly this. Besides, my girlfriend's name is on the hull.

Did they paint a girl in a cheesecake pose on the Normandy 2 while I was not looking?

If only. But Miss Vas Normandy refused to pose for it.

SR-2 can land on some planets, just not on higher-gravity ones.

But just because SR-2 can land on planets, it doesn't have to. A shuttle is much more practical. SR-2 requires a landing area four times as large as SR-1, it wastes a huge amount of fuel, it's not very discreet and it's a huge and expensive target.

SR-2 is pretty much a cross between a frigate and a cruiser. It's still small enough to be a frigate, it's fast and obviously stealthy. On the other hand, it has cruiser's firepower and survivability. Capable of both jobs, I'd say.

The SR2 is a better ship then the SR1 imo.

[Agamo45]

I rather like the SR2, she was built by Cerberus but is Shepard's ship, independant from either Cerberus or the Alliance. If she got destroyed at the beginning of ME3 and we got a new ship that would just be cheesy as hell.

I hope they at least swept the damn thing for Cerberus surveillance equipment first.

This. I loved this.

I was sad to see the SR2's interior turn out to be a luxury hotel with the bright lights. Probably because Cerberus didn't allow for shore leave like the Alliance does, but still... the Engineering floor could definitely have been done up like the SR1's; dark, comfortable, and sleek.

[WWNSX]

I love the SR2 especially Shepard's Captains Quarters but I kind of want him to smash his models like Picard in Star Trek First Contact and say "the line must be drawn here!"

[Bogsnot1]

I'm more upset its becoming an Alliance vessel. As a civilian ship, we had ability to go "pants optional".

Actually, according to the art book the SR2 was supposed to be very much like the SR1, a copy that was somewhat beat-down.

And they're going to 'retrofit' the Normandy, the interior is probably going to get a gigantic overhaul so it'll be a lot like a new ship.

[KainrycKarr]

I wouldn't worry about Shepard being in charge.

Neither Ash nor Kaidan are likely to be that ignorant regardless of how you feel about them, nor do they have the talent to take Shep's command.

On-topic, I liked both.

The Normandy is Shep's ship. The SR-1 and SR-2 are simply stages of evolution of his ship, and I think the refitted SR-2 will be even better.

[jamesp81]

Gotta disagree. The SR2 is a thing of beauty. A human warship for a human spectre. She's nothing but death and destruction from her powerful engines, to needle prow. And she's damned sexy too.

[Xerxes52]

The SR2 is awesome imo.

The only thing I would change would be the interior lighting (I liked the non-OSHA compliant lighting in the SR1), and I would add WWII style nose art on the hull (with a pinup girl and a silly pun like "Squid Slayer")

The SR-1 looked like a budget ship it didn't even have a toilet i guess they went low tech and used a bucket.

That's not biased at all:bandit:

[Oblivious]

I find this discussion odd. Complaining about the SR-1 and SR-2 is like Kirk complaining that the Enterprise 1701-B didn't have "those cool buttons and knobs" that 1701-A and 1701 does

Kaiden tries to claim my ship, he gets promptly air locked........It took me a while to adjust to the new Normandy, but once I did, I like the ship...just get rid of the Cerberus insignia's and I will be more than happy....not so sure about being under anyones control though, be that Cerberus, Alliance, Council, any of them.

LOL, but it was amusing.  I don't have a strong connection to the sr2 I'd trade it to the alliance for something, not sure what.  But if I have any say ingame I won't just let them take the ship, Sheperd would have to give it to them.

Yep, watching her destroy  collector cruiser in 1 shot with her thanix cannons was as good as sex!

I almost hate myself for saying it, but I feel the same way....

[AquamanOS]

While I actually liked the look the SR1 better, (SR2 looks too much like a plane IMO) it was just given to you for the mission. The Captain's cabin doesn't feel like Shepard's room. The SR2 was built for Shepard's use and it feels that way. And blowing it up again would cheapen it.

I hate the new paintjob though. Why couldn't they just remove the Cerberus logo and call it a day? This chrome finish doesn't look right.
