Oops. Sorry.  Just now got to this point in the thread.

There is definitely some interesting Geth-Quarian stuff going on in that video what with the Quarian fleet in orbit and Legion hanging out planet side.

And at 28 seconds in this video you get to see Legion chilling with some quarians. It looks like they might be planning the mission seen in the video the OP posted.


Also I just want to say that the sound of that orbital cannon impacting that Reaper is very very satisfying. Rob Blake and his team are kicking ass.

OK, one, he wasn't supposed to "flank" you. Or the geth. He's supposed to provide fire support on the Colossus from the exact same place where you talk to him. Flanking requires, you know, moving.  Hence "flanking manuever". IOW, what you're supposed to be doing to the Colossus.  He was just trying to nail its shields and force it into repair mode
 so you can deal with the other geth on the way.  In any case, how effective his attacks are is entirely dependent on the difficulty setting, because he never misses. 

Two: he's scripted to die, genius.  Take too long and the Colossus will get sick of him and nail him with a siege pulse.  Considering he'd already taken some hits and his gear wasn't in top shape (you know, that whole pesky "sun" thingy), it's hardly surprising a direct hit from that takes him out.

If as you claim he died instantly, it was a bug.  Not that I find this claim particularly credible.  I did some dialogue testing there and every single time it took him quite a while to get killed.

Actually, no.

For him to survive, Shepard has to bring Colossus attention to himself/herself.

I tested it.

I was doing a Sentinel run with him covering me and I was doing very slowly and in the end he survived.
On my Adept run I was doing it very fast, but he died.

And I noticed something.

While I was doing Sentinel run, I spammed Overload on Colossus and when my Tech armor explodes it damages Colossus a little so that thing still has attention on me.

I was re-watching the E3 trailers and noticed something I hadn't before. At around 2:40 in this video, you can hear someone (I think it's Shepard) say, "We've got the whole quarian fleet waiting in orbit."

Now, I remember it was theorized before that that planet could be the quarian homeworld, so it would make sense, I guess. But the whole quarian fleet waiting in orbit? That's quite significant.

Just a random thought. Have at it.

We don't really know when this is taking place in the game. It could've been after the geth and the quarians have finally worked things out between them and then the quarians are trying to get as many of their ships to the planet, because that's what they've been trying to do all this time.

Then they get some sort of information about a Reaper base which turns out to be a real Reaper, and Shepard is trying to get to teh choppa.

Haven't really seen what happens after they hit the Reaper either.

Tali and not usefull? ...ähm In Combat, Her Drone ist awesome to distrace the enemys, or her Hacking skills. Also with the Shotgun she did good Damage.
In Plot:
Without her, Saren had never loose his Spectre status in ME 1, also in M2 she opend the Door as Tech (ok Legion can do it as well, but with out Tali Legion die by Shild error, cuz there would be no Shild update), also i guess and i hope, Legion + Tali are improtant roles in M3 to end the Geth/Quarian war

[Fiery Phoenix]

I know, SWM. It's nevertheless interesting. I, for one, think this takes place during the mission which resolves the quarian-geth conflict (which I imagine to be somewhere in the middle of the game). That is assuming the planet is indeed Rannoch.

Can't really see why both the geth and the quarians would gather around the planet if it wasn't Rannoch.

Well that makes sense: I wasn't doing any fighting.  I was running around near the beginning in God mode trying to get Reegar's dialogue to trigger. So, it's a case of "take too long to get up to the Colossus", as I'm pretty sure once you get within a certain distance, it completely ignores Kal.  It's still a scripted event though, just conditional.

[Meshaber]

That doesn't sound like Shepard to me, my guess is on Joker.

[Meshaber]

Also, wait Kal'Reegar can die?

I thought it was strange that he always survived...does that impact anything?

To a point, yes. For example, he won't show up on the Rayya if he was killed on Haestrom

Yeah, well I figured that out. Unless, hmmm, husks.

Guessing that makes "incite the crowd" ineffective during the trial. Oh well:P

[AquamanOS]

Yeah. The crowd option is unavailable if Reegar dies, or Veetor is sent to Cerberus.

[Team Value]

I've always thought the idea of the quarians fighting a war against anybody is pretty silly. Yes, their fleet is very large, but it is also essentially irreplaceable and too valuable to risk. The quarians do not have the manufacturing capability or resources to construct new ships and their population is too small to replace casualties.

It would have to be a moment of desperation, which the Reaper invasion would be. Despite their disadvantages, I think the Quarians would be formidable as SpecOps commandos. They are intimately knowledgable of mechanical systems meaning they would be capable of disabiling high value electronics and weaponry. THey seem to be capable fighters when not entirely overwhelmed.

I don't think they would be as bad as everyone believes them to be.

[Whiteshiro]

You guys don't even understand how powerful the quarians are if the can make the Geth... all the ships.... the are exellent mechanics trust me the get there fame in ME3

Yeah but if we were talking about the turian homeworld you'd throw them into the meatgrinder just as quickly.

Everyone's going into the meat grinder for the Turian homeworld, but the Quarians get the "honor" of being the vanguard.

[JeffZero]

Speaking of hard-to-notice lines from the trailers, I can't get enough of Wrex's "Shepard, you pull this off and I'm making you an honorary krogan" during the Sur'Kesh gameplay.

Yeah, that was 300 years ago when they had a multi-planet infrastructure and economy and a population in the tens of billions range. And all those quarians are dead now anyway.

Easy answer, yeah in the thick of ground pounding battle, the Quarians are gonna suck. BUT in Orbital Bombardment and Ship to Ship combat, they're gonna kick alot of ass. Its the biggest bloody fleet in known space. Combine that with the fleets of the other Citadel Races plus whatever else is hiding in the darkened corners willing to right the reapers, and you got a formidable force assembled.

Size doesn't really matter.  Also aren't their ships in pretty bad shape?

I like to think that forging an alliance with the geth will allow the quarians to reconstruct their fleet, given they're AIs and have tons of resources. Maybe the Rachni can help here too

[Freyzer]

While their fleet is huge, I doubt it is as powerful as a fleet of any of the major races in ME.  A fleet that size would require an enourmous amount of supplies just to keep them running.  I doubt they have much extra resources to equip all their ships with adequate weapons.  I would bet that maybe 1/10 of the fleet actually even have weapons and are designated to escort the fleet in case of attack.  The rest probably just hold civilians or are for making food, factories, etc.  Also, most of the fleet is really old or restored from antique ships, so I bet the hull of most of their ships is weak and vulnerable.

I'm positive it's Garrus who says it. Also makes more sense considering it's a Geth base, and we've seen Shepard discussing something with Legion and Kal Reegar on a bridge in that 48-second little montage video way back frmo E3.

Garrus would have been my other guess. I don't think it's Joker, though. It's not his voice at all.

[Pups_of_war_76]

I certainly hope that the quarians aren't fielding their whole fleet offensively, considering that most of it isn't warships, apart from being where all of their civilians live.
