I was talking from personal experience. And no, I'm sorry I don't have any proof beyond my word. I play on the Xbox and don't have the means to record game sessions.


Take a picture of the war assets page on the TV with a cell phone or a digi camera. :)

There is a reason why I only play single player rpg games that don't have mp at all. That was another thing that made me annoyed bout ME3, but I can deal with it for now...there is something worse than not being able to achieve 5000 ems on sp:devil:


You can achieve 5000 ems on sp. Import a Shep, try to make as many allies as you can (I allied everyone), finish all the side missions, and scan every system in every cluster (basically, 100% completion). You'll get over 10000 TMS.


Have you tried it? Screenshots? Because I did try, and no, I did not get it. Yes, I imported a Shep from ME1 to ME2 and then ME3, I allied everyone, did all side quests, scan every single system and every single planet (it took hell of a long time, btw). 
The max I could get was around 7400 TMS, which is around 3700 ems without EVER touching mp.

SO many people have told me that you can do it, but no one has proven it. With a screenshot or a video or something. Until a see proof, I'm not believing it.

I know a youtuber, who's using a dazzle with her PS to record video.

PS -> Dazzle -> Computer

Dazzle has A/V connectors...the new one's probably have HDMI now.

So Xbox should be able to do it
Or if you have a Windows Media Center you can play Xbox through it....though I'm not sure if that's just using the monitor as a display device. I know the KB&M won't work in games.

Didn't Casey Hudson say something like "We'll create more endings than we have ever before." So, three endings. ME1 had three endings.

I honestly was very happy when the reapers were just organic harvesting machines. I would've been perfectly happy with kicking their machine behinds and my Shepard and his/her LI living happily ever after (Anyone remembering this: "I don't know, old age, lots of little blue children."?)

I'm reluctant to play the game again, seeing as I can't have the ending I want. In Mass Effect 2 three squadmates died during the suicide mission. I played it again, because I knew that all could make it back. But this? Sorry, with only these endings I can't enjoy the game anymore. One reason why I only played through Far Cry 2 once.

I don't know if only I feel like that, but an ending can make a series a true legend or something you don't want to remember. Sadly, as of right now Mass Effect 3 is among the latter. Let's hope with a new ending Mass Effect 3 will be among these games.

Much like how the reapers brought the galactic community together, the ending (notice how I didn't spell ending plural), brought the Bioware forum community together. Its kinda sad that thats probably the best thing I can say about the ending...

I also play on the Xbox, so I get that. Should've taken a picture with your phone/camera/webcam >D
Are you sure you never touched mp? Like, ever? You are the first person who is actually saying they got over 4000 ems without ever touching multiplayer. Everyone else touched it at least for 5min and bumped up readiness to 60% or something like that, to get over 4000.
There must have some kind of magic, because no one has been able to do it (trust me, I've been SO active on BSN that I have been reading this thread since page 50 and trying to find a way to get over 4000 ems without mp)


I did touch mp afterwards (I pretended that every cerberus freak was being played by a BioWare employee. It was a good coping method) and promoted a class for the achievement, so I can't just go back and take a pic now. I'm gonna go back and *shudder* import a new Shep and play through again. I'll get back to you on this.

One thing is for certain. Never, not once, over the past five years, did I think that the epilogue to the series would be a text popup that said "Commander Shepard has become a legend. Buy the DLC!"

See, I don't know if the game was always supposed to have the end solely focus on transhumanism. In retrospect that only seems like part of the equation. Not the  main focus....

I doubt that's what they're doing, but I'll also note that there's nothing that says that they automatically charge us if they do.  ME2 had DLC released free of charge (Zaeed, Firewalker), and there's no reason why they couldn't do the same thing here.


The only and i mean ONLY reason those were free was to get people to buy new copies instead of used.
now that there is mp you will not see free dlc packs such as zaeed.
If this was the case why not release from ashes to all who bought the game new vs only those who bought the CE.

@BioEvilChris Would it be too much if I asked you something since you work at BioWare? It's not ****ing about ME3.

@KenRaves Shoot, I may not be able to answer, but I'll try.


@BioEvilChris During the final run, just before the end, are the two squadmates with you killed? I understand if you can't answer.

@KenRaves I don't think we've revealed that yet. Sorry.

@BioEvilChris Totally fine, sir, thanks for your time! Also, I was 95% satisfied with the game - sorry 'bout the flak on the forums I saw.

Sounds like, something will be revealed.

I dunno, man.  I get why that sounds promising, but I gotta admit I'm pessimistic.  I kinda interpret this more as Chris saying he's not going to talk about ending spoilers (as in, the ending we got, not a secret one) until a later date (when more people have finished the game, etc).


More likely the "Rescue Sheppard" DLC will have them fight their way onto the citadel, suddenly all your citadel war assets make sense, and then they have to escape to the normandy with Sheppard saying "go west young joker" (or something infinitely better... not that I'm setting the bar all that high) right before the station explodes....stuff ensues.  Sadly still leaving the crap citadel kid ending intact.. but still better than what's there in my opinion :P

OMG, right?? That was 100% legit offensive. I could hear the "Quit QQing about the endings, noobs! We're got more content for you to buy. What do you mean you don't care about this mission pack?!"

That's what I thought. :(
We are trying to prove Bioware's claim that you can get all the assets without ever touching mp, which no one has been able to do so far. 
Good luck getting it! (I've tried...twice)

I just realized a short while ago the best comparison I can come up with.....

While playing ME3 I wholeheartedly thought I was reading the most beautiful love letter I had ever read, and then I got to the final sentence, and I realized it was a break up note.

I think that best sums up ME3 for me.....


Here, here.


I prefered the eating the best chili ever and discovering it's made from your parents analogy but yeah.

So, does anyone have a theory as to how the aliens magically disappear by the time the stargazer scene happens? There were thousands of alien races stranded on Earth, no relays, and it's obvious at the end that the stargazer scene is supposed to be taking place on "our" Earth, i.e. no super technology, aliens, etc.


that's an awful big moon.....


That's no moon...


lol, pun
But seriously it looks like the Gas Giant that jungle planet (or moon) the Normandy crashes on. 

 @4:36, that's a Gas Giant "in front of" Joker's body
 that's a Gas Giant in the sky.

That sounds a bit better. It could show Shepard escape, the Normandy crashing on the planet, and Shepard, and his love interest and the crew colonize a new planet. That's not too bad.

Heh,.. yeah..

Well, thinking about all the stuff the BW-guys twittered, it's pretty obvious there is something coming for us. Like I said, it would be embarassing though if they have to give us the ending via DLC.

Didn't one of them just tweet: "Íf you would know what is coming for you... well, hold on unto your ME3-copy."

Basically.  And to be honest, if they told me the endings would be addressed, I would start a full series replay right now, as I intended to do when I took 8 days off of work.

I've seen people act the same way. "I'm sure you are overeacting, but I haven't beat it yet." Then they beat the game and come here just as angry and upset as we are. Lol.

I love the rescue shepard idea, the ability to play as one of your squadmates(most likely your LI) and repair the normandy and get to Earth or the remains of the Citidel, but that still leaves one question. How did they get to that planet, and why was Joker running, how did they get to the normandy if they were running with me and got destroyed by the Reaper beam?

To be honest, I would be surprised if he changed his tune if he finishes it.  He'd have to admit he jumped the gun and that we're not all crazies for wanting a new ending.
