Extremely disappointing lore error.

While running about the catwalks in Vancouver, Kaidan/Ashley call in on the radio that they're "trying to take down the Dreadnought". We then see a Reaper destroying a ship that's hovering in mid air with a few shots. Now there's a number of problems with this.

>The Codex clearly states that Dreadnoughts are kilometre long vessels which cannot enter atmosphere even on low gravity worlds. Even Carriers cannot enter atmosphere on a planet with 1 G.

>The Codex states that the main gun of Sovereign would be able to destroy any Alliance ship with a single shot.

Anyone else bothered how unserious BioWare seem to be about consistency?

We actually noticed this one. Ash and Kaidan's recording sessions were over by the time we had finalized art and realized that at the distance we could see the ship, there was no way it should be a dreadnought. Unfortunate, but there wasn't much we could do.

(I don't comment on this kind of thing too often, but it bothered one of our other writers quite a bit so I'd like to stick up on his behalf.)

@Sylvf,

So this ship that blows up in that sequence is what's being referred to over the comm?: social.bioware.com/uploads_user/1158000/1157264/184052.jpg


Hard to tell from the small picture, but I believe so - it is the ship whose shockwave knocks you down.

I hope you could answer this question though, so is the Normandy SR2 nearby in a docking bay or somewhere in atmo?


I actually don't know - that was Mac's level, and he'd have more details on what he pictured going down, and when.

Edit: At any rate, thanks for letting us know. ^_^


No problem!
