If you have some gravy throw some of those biscuits this way.

Gravy and biscuits, I will never get used to seeing that, here in britain biscuits are generally sweet, you call them cookies.

If you call cookies biscuits then what do you call biscuits.

This is the whole if Canadian bacon is ham then what is bacon issue all over again!!!

If New York is our Citadel then Brooklyn is the Zakera Ward.

Manhattan is the presidium. With Brooklyn and the remaining Burroughs being the arms. That still leaves us one arm short though. There are 5 arms on the citidel right?


Is New Jersey considered a Burrough?  I've never really asked haha

Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island are the five Burroughs.

Of course.  The rEApers reach is great... and we require our resolute brothers and sisters from the great state of Georgia.

It would be great if someone with considerably more patience than I, would make a thread showing all of the pre-release casey hudson comments about the ending. I think it would get us alot more assets. If people see that this is not only a horrible ending, but false advertising, I think they would be alot more willing to join the cause. Even the minority of people who due to not playing the previous games/lack of knowledge of what the games are about/Don't understand the stupidity of the endings, and actually like the ending should be against them solely for the fact that they are the definition of false advertising.


Look here



It gives a bad taste reading some parts of that compilation.

I did send a small script-treatment to BW, but I really think some things should be added to the ending. Like a final battle, where you would take into consideration all the things you know about your asset's capabilities. For example:

- In ME2, Tali comments how the Migrant Fleet is a formidable force fighting from above, but how the Quarians wouldn't be suited for a direct assault, like shock troopers.

Small "hints" like that are all over ME. There are some about most every possible assets, like where would you place the Rachni in case of a war etc.

So, I think Shep, in the final battle, as the one who knows every asset, and commands the necessary respect with them, should help make the choices about where to put them. And that would have major consequences. If you decided to put the Quarians in the front line, they could be almost extinct, or suffer major losses. And with decisions like that, you could maybe loose the war, or at least have a different ending. Maybe taking responsibility for all those losses.

But if you made the correct choices, the final part of the war (in my treatment there were big showdowns with TIM, Harby before that point) would go much easily, and through a well-thought fight, you would achieve better endings.

These ideas would take into account every decision you ever made, and still make you fully participate in the ending choices.

It's these kinds of things that I was expecting from ME3, after you've done so much in the first 2, and made all those choices. You let whole species die or survive. This has to be taken into account not only for future ME titles, or for an "epilogue" (or explanation of the finale), but to a real ending for Shep and everything he did.

I think there's actually a Google Doc somewhere around with that.  Good luck finding the link though... hopefully someone else has it... *makes note to check Mr Bond's links next time around*


I'd like to find this as well. I'd love to put it in my comprehensive cache of information thread.

Eh. Georgia's not so great. Too many people living here. I much prefer my original state of Pennsylvania. That way, I wouldn't be one of the first to die as the rEApers take over populated centers. I will take that as a compliment, however. Image IPB

I actually saw it referenced in one of the more recent media posts.. I've never used Google Docs... I'm assuming there's a search function in them though... it is Google after all.  I'll see if I can take a look later if no one else finds it before Image IPB

And what are those of us in Europe doing? 

Think carefully before you answer that...Image IPB

Europe are the backbone they give much need morale boosts and biscuits Image IPB

yes, Europe is like our citadel. The backbone that helps the effort financially, psychologically and physiologically. They also have tea and biscuits and a cute dog named Fi-Fi. Image IPB

If you have some gravy throw some of those biscuits this way. Also wouldn't New York be our citadel with the UN there? What Europe really provides us with is our high performance vessels. I would say koenigsegg agera r= Normandy sr2


Isn't the UN in Geneva?

We're referring to the one that had the list of claims as to what the ending was and what it actually contained... I haven't read this one yet... and already I'm like "oooh I didn't even THINK of that" Image IPB

Edit: Man you guys really are the Intelligence & Archives division.

No, there was a post or something floating around with the dev's tweets/statements and stuff, talking about what the ending would (supposedly) be like.

FYI: I posted a thread talking about a DLC ending proposal / compromise that I came up with. It's basically the "What If" proposal that I've posted before but never got much feedback on.

I'd be curious to hear what you think about it and if it's something that you could accept AND if you think it might be something that Bioware would accept.
