Hi guys I'm an Aussie posing a question. Why is Miranda the only Australian in Mass Effect? The Australian Soldiers have been known through history as excellant Shock Troopers so why is there only one Aussie in Mass Effect. Even Russian,German,Italian and most other viable countries deserve more people in game, especially as Alliance soldiers. I know it would be difficult to do but not impossible, most countries deserve more people in game. I would personally love to see some Aussie and German Marines fighting Husks and cerberus.

[Adugan]

Yeah, I would like to see a Russian commando reapin some Cerberus guys.

All you humans are racist.

[GIJooTheWarHero]

The American education system failed me because all they teach us about Australia is that you used to be a bunch of British convicts. And if Steve Irwin has anything to say about it, you guys say "mate" and "krikey" a lot.

But Miranda is a good representation for your species, err...people.



*just kidding, I know a decent amount about Australia, I just like making lame jokes too)

[G3rman]

Because Miranda is based off a famous Aussie VA. Aussie soldiers aren't famous.

[Eckswhyzed]

What about New Zealanders?

*awkward silence*

[Chuvvy]

Australians are a myth propagated by the evil Southern Antarctic ****s to lure us into their trap. By 2183 they've been all but wiped out, Miranda is one of the few survivors, her father is top ****. Wow really? **** is stared? Okay, well, there goes that joke.

Voice acting, I guess.

What about Bangladeshians? Why aren't they in the game?

[SykoWolf]

Australian women are used more often in games (GOW) with the exception of Sam Worthington in Black Ops. I'd love for Hugh Jackman,Russle Crow or even Sam to do some work in Mass Effect. (Who remembers Chips Dubbo from Halo?)

[SykoWolf]

Oh and yes, New Zealanders too......they can stare a husk down and do the Hakka

Who doesn't remeber Chips Dubbo? "Dear Sarge, kicking ass in outer space, wish you were here."

Hell yeah, Chips for ME3!!!......Dear Anderson,killing zombies in vancouver,wish you were here......with a shotgun......and a dropship,love Chips

[Rabbi Satan]

Who cares? I mean, really...

And yes, I'm Australian. The premise of this thread is so stupid it's hurting my brain. Why not Indians? Croatians? Kazakhs? Thais?

[GIJooTheWarHero]

I don't know why I'm just now realizing this but Miranda isn't Australian. Her VA is, but the character is not.

[Unato]

Australia doesn't exist. I think the last video game I played that had Australia in it was Red Alert 2

The Australian Soldiers have been known through history as excellant
Shock Troopers

Yes, they were excellent at getting killed during both World Wars. Australia only became a self-governing country in the 20th century, so ''through history'' doesn't really apply here. Unless you count Aboriginal history of sitting in the mud and playing on their Didgeridoos.

so why is there only one Aussie in Mass Effect.

There is a huge amount of other nationalities not ''represented'' in Mass Effect, some from countries who do have a history to speak of, so i would be glad there is the one chick and shut up.

Was that really necessary? Go jump.

Yes, it was, and no, go jump yourself.

Australians in WWI and WWII were badasses (possibly/arguably/maybe the best troops!) though I'd say our troops aren't as good as they used to be lol.

Well except for our SAS...they are pretty good (yes, we have an SAS similar to England's one. )

[Barker673]

Whoa, Spaghetti, what's your problem? Yes, plenty of Aussie soldiers died during both World War's but you don't have to be disrespectful about it, if you don't like the topic, don't come here and start being rude.

Plus, yes we are a relatively young country, but doesn't mean we don't have a history, especially in military terms.

As for the "exclant at getting killed" quote, your lucky I'm not near you, you wouldn't be able to see out either eye. Australian soldiers are man for man better trained the American soldiers.(I have high respect for American troops) Second, americans hold record for getting most killed (Vietnam) australians were excellant fighters etc battle of long tan, 1000's of N vietnamese against under a hundred Aussies, outcome? 100's N vietnam dead and the rest retreat, 13 aussies dead after almost an entire day fighting. Third, shock trooper means we would scare the **** out of our enemy with our toughness and bravery. Yes it is true many died at Galliploi, but that was due to BRITISH mistake, yet we managed to gain a hold on the beach and fight till we were ORDERED out by British. By disrespecting my people you have only hurt yourself....I feel sorry for you.....( I'm an Australian soldier)

[Barker673]

Aussie soldier's have gone through and come out victorious through some of the thickest crap and worst fights in history, so get your facts straight.

[SykoWolf]

Sorry about vietnam reference Americans it was a real tragedy but it is true you lost a lot of good people, I don't mean to disrespect you.
