And what if they simply tried it for the sake of developing a way of terraforming planets in case they need it?
Not all planets are going to be like Earth, you know.

Basically it gives lie to the often (and often by Turian) complaint that Humanity is being given too much power too quickly. In fact the Turians never had to wear 'training wheels" like they insist other races do. It proves the Turian Heiarchy (and Asari and Salarians too to be fair) are hypocrits.

Now get back on topic regarding the thread. I'm wondering how far they will be taking the Cybernetic implants.
Will it be similar to Deus Ex HR or Ghost in the Shell?
We do know that cybernetics can increase strength and durability to the point where Shepard can face Yahg in hand to hand and not get torn a part.

Be a very expensive research project (planets are big) and that's what this would amount to. For that matter reasonably earthlike planets seem common enough to make this economically unfeasable.

You mean for the Cerberus troopers?
I'd guess that it varies from type to type.
Kai Leng is getting some serious work in the cybernetics department. I don't think that they want to spend so many resources on regular troops, though.
It' probably just something for the special operatives like the Phantoms.

Here's what the Mars description says:
"Once considered a prospect for terraforming and colonization, the discovery of faster than light travel turned Mars into a quiet backwater."
That does not say "They terraformed it" to me.
I originally mentioned mass effect fields. I'll say it again. Mass Effect Fields.didymos1120 wrote...

Actually, depending on where you are and the weather, it is possible to do that without a sealed hardsuit right now. The only problem you might have is the massive difference in temperature between ground level (relatively balmy) and head level (blisteringly cold). It's entirely within reason to assume they could have built up a thicker atmosphere to alleviate that problem, if only to save money on hardsuits and insulation.DiebytheSword wrote...
Terraforming would likely be a lengthy, involved process with many stages, and preparing the atmosphere appears to be the first step, either with comet collisions or biological agents, either way they could have started and stopped. If they did so, Mars would have an atmosphere for quite some time before the Sun ripped it off with stellar wind, thus making Mars safe for walking around on exposed, but unsuitable for breathing.

Exactly. Note what is listed for Humanity's entry but NOT listed for the Turians. Date of associate membership. The Citadel was never in danger during the Rebellions and record keeping even to the Rachni wars is very good, so if the Turians were ever associate members, it should be listed as such with date of membership.
Instead it seems very clear: The Turians were Council Allies for about 200 years and then granted full membership. They were never associate members (like Humanity was or like the Volus and Elcor are).

If you go to the Citadel, PA terminal #3(the Krogan statue). I think it said the turians were uplifted, by the council to help them with their Korgan problems.

They were never uplifted, they had spacefaring tech of their own when the council made first contact with them. Remember the unification wars, outer turian colonies fought with Palaven and their central worlds.
Krogans were uplifted, even humans were kinda, since we wouldnt even be a space faring species without that knowledge in prothean ruins. Then again I dont know if turians had a quite pure upbringing either, they might have also found prothean tech that elevated them. It is never mentioned tough.
. Kaidan/Ashley being critically injured just worries me because then we most likely don't have them on our squad for awhile 
I want them to be on my team. I wonder if their romance plots can develop when their injured? Shepard given K/A some TLC when they are getting better maybe

No no no, you're doing it wrong. You should really be asking, "in what light will cybernetic implants be seen in the post-Deus Ex era?"1136342t54 wrote...
