It doesn't have to make sense or be a good story, just have some awesome lines and cool action scenes with some big explosions and it will be popular. And that isn't a knock, I love movies like this.

I hate moveis like that. Which is why every second sentance from the script irks me.

Why have you stuck with the ME franchise so far then? It's not like believability is it's strong point, it's just fun.

Believability was a stroing point.

Which part, the humanoid aliens all speaking English (yeah I know Shepard supposedly has translation software implants but that doesn't explain the lip synching)?
Seriously... two legs, two eyes, a mouth, roughly the same height. Isn't that a bit coincidental? Or what about the manipulation of "dark energy" to throw stuff around?

How about the idea of FTL travel, which current science indicates is impossible? Sound effects in space battles taking place in a vacuum? A corpse coming back to life? A ship that has just one bedroom but a full crew? Telepathic sex? An ancient artifact that implants memories into the hero's brain? Incendiary rounds that completely disintegrate bodies? Species that live for centuries? Don't let these things in ME3 bother you anymore than they did in the other games. It'll still be good.

Degrees my silly friend. Degrees. A Sci-Fi like ME will by necessity have some things that arne't realistic. FTL is a must, for example.
Also, believable and relistic arne' the same thing (altough relistic things are by defintiion believable)


English peaking and sound in space is there for player/viewer convenience - fluff-wise, they aren't in the ME universe any morethan my mouse clicking is. You COULD have all alien races speak in their native tounges and have a translation appear, but that would be tedious

FTL, is a necessity - so that's one of the things where they HAD to break "realism" to have traveling to other planets and stuff.

Corpse coming back to life - I assume you mean Lazarus - is uneccesary, and something I complaned about earlier.

I can't recall if Normady MK1 has a ship area you couldn't enter (I assume the small bunks would be there). Sure seemed like there's enough room inside the ship.

I have no love for asari or telepathy, but I'd hardly call it a problem. I don't know if it is "telpathic sex"

Why couildnt' species live for centuries? What's unbelievable about that?

Incendiary rounds - they exist for the same reason dissapearing bodies do - for graphics performance.

Two legs, two mouths - there's nothing to indicate that such a shape ins't optimal. You can't relaly tell ahead of time how aliens will look. Msot might end up lookign like us - how would you know? Hardly unbelievable. Also, animation, resources and other behind-the-scebes stuff affect that decision.

Etc, etc...
ME1 was better than ME2 which will be better than ME2 (apparently) in terms of believabiltiy, writing of main plot and general atmosphere.

Why not get inside them and destroy their critical systems?
We already know they have insides and that their systems are exposed on the insides from the derelict reaper.

Setting the difficulty to easy?

The fact that there are divisions within the Reaper fleet means that there are varying degrees of offensive and defensive capability. Further, the specialized ships within the Reaper fleet underscores this fact. Previous reaping cycles relied upon secrecy, surprise, and the early decapitation of galactic government coinciding with the surprise destruction of the elite forces protecting the Citadel. Further the Citadel is the master controller of the mass relay gates. The Reapers would then lock everything down and take the galaxy apart piece by piece. That didn't happen this time.

I have said all along that you don't need a Deus Ex Machina to take out the Reapers. What you do need is a few damned good Admirals, some Generals, and the cooperation of the races to take them down once and for all using conventional warfare. Their technology isn't millions of years more advanced than ours, just hundreds.

The Reapers don't take raw materials, they take the tech. If they take the tech, they take it because they can use it. That is why they left behind artifacts that lead people to copy their tech and direct them down the Reaper's technology path. That doesn't mean that they will be pushovers though.

Without a united galaxy standing as one, we are lost. There will be a lot of fighting in ME3, but in the end diplomacy will prove far more important to our goals.

[wolfennights]

Deus ex Machina. What else would it be?

[Sora Shepherd]

An army of Cain Launchers, yes.

The resist likely going to be a deus ex machina. I think some of the people who read the entire script said there was come to think of it. I read the script, but not the whole thing. (too long) so I don't know. But given what we've seen from the first two games, there'd have to be. What else could there be?

How original (sarcasm). And false (sincere).

On topic, we should make them read a play script about the Salem Witch Trials.

haha!
THe protheans hacked the citadel, maybe those of us who saved the collectors base can learn how to interfere with the Reaper communication system. Maybe make them sleep again? The normandy 2  uses reaper technology, as told by EDI.

(now for something funny)
Reapers study the organics through our communication systems. Humans create a lot of porn, and spam. Let's spam the reapers with porn!!! lol That'll slow them down!

[CenturyCrow]

Shepard will trick the Reapers into talking about piracy and Chris P. will delete the Reapers...

One vanguard falcon punch at a time, thats how.

Hack the reapers then upload reruns of all the shows to ever run on the E! network.
