Perhaps the collector ship was a bad example, but I still think that the dreadnought scene is simply taking the "rule of cool" approach over the lore approach.

And this suprises you...now? Series has been shifting to that extremely obviously since ME2. <.<

I'm sticking with the Normandy was in orbit and on there way down they saw a dreadnaught get destroyed right as we see the cruiser flying in atmosphere (possible) getting destroyed and the duologue just came over the intercom like "holy **** watch out" like a person would do in real life had they been talking and then witnessed something happening. So chock this one up to coincidence

My gripe is that you shouldn't put all of that work into a Codex if you're not going to stick to it.
Nerdy or not, Its not as though I'm raging over this in my parent's basement as I'm sure some people are. I just think its laziness. They could have made that scene still be really cool by saying it was a cruiser or just not saying the ship's class.
They could have satisfied both the lore fans and the action fans all in one go instead of ignoring their own writing just to sound cool.
In the end, I'm just going to assume it was a lore break, that was a dreadnought in atmosphere and that all of the crew members got slammed against the wall once their gravitational axis flipped from the artificial "lengthwise" gravity to Earth's natural "widthwise" gravity. Either that or they better have all been wearing their seat belts.

Speaking as a comic book fan, if you try hard enough, you will always find something to niggle about if you try hard enough. Writers, game designers, whathaveyou, are people, too. and things occasionally slip through the cracks. It's easy to spot such things from a distance, but during the process, such mistakes can and often do happen. When it happens, unless it's some game-changing thing, I tend to just shrug and move on. It's a snippet of dialogue and less than
a few seconds of action.

Yes, because ME1 didn't do any "rule of cool" stuff at all. For instance, that space battle at the end was totally Codex-compliant.

No, I understand that it happens as an accident once in a while. I'm sorry if it seemed like I was unforgiving for that.
Part of me just doesn't understand the people trying to defend the mistake.

So Vega and the VS took a shuttle into orbit, rendevoused with the Normandy and then flew all the way back down in the 10 minutes it took to clear the intro? That's absurd. There's no way they made that round trip in that amount of time. They would have needed to be flying in their shuttle faster than a modern space shuttle take-off just to get into orbit before the Normandy showed up to get Shepard.

I guess when they enter the atmosphere they knew that the ship can't get back to

So you didn't play ME2? Because ME2 shifted away from micro lore managment for the "rule of cool".

maybe but I'm sticking to that considering the ship is Cruiser size and Cruiser shape, its a cruiser at least until I have more evidence to disclaim my theory.

SR-2 cannot land on planets according to ME2. That's why it used "UT-47 Kodiak Drop Shuttle" in ME2. For some reason it can land on Earth in ME3.

Its shuttle can make landings the Normandy cannot attempt.
