Yeah, I mean it doesn't tell me where I actually should go to do the sidequests. I noticed that some locations at in the galaxy map were blinking with light, at the locations the sidequests were. But not always.
Like, SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER
the mission with the human ambassadors Son - where the **** should I go? The journal says something about a place called Benning but I can't find it. Or will I be able to see where it is after I've done a priority mission?
Or the citadel side quest - I mean, I don't find ANY of the things I am supposed to find (like that stuff for engineer Adams).
END OF SPOILER
the journal sucks?

Yup, I'm in the same boat. This is a big WTF for me. The journal doesn't update, even after you finish a quest. And it's sorting mechanics are ass. No idea why they changed it from effective and useful to absolute trash.

Several of the citadel side quests actually cant be done when you first unlock them. As you progress a bit more into the story, then those planets will open up for scanning.
Nevertheless they still dont get tracked properly. Not to mention its a pain in the ass to find the turn-ins that dont show up with names on the map. Its also really annoying that most of them come from planet scanning or things you pick up during missions.
Considering you can get war effort stuff naturally from that anyways, why the hell put us through the timesink of running around the citadel doing all that crap?

You have to go back to the Spectre office once you done the evacuation of Benning. You can buy the information about him there or something like that.
But I agree the journal is confusing as hell in ME3. So far with some exploration of Citadel i've been able to complete every side mission.

It's one of the N7 missions - you'll get it soon enough. Apparently you just have to do the mission and come back. However, you need to do that mission ASAP, and then return to the Citadel right away, or else you won't get a chance to bring him the info.AvagerShepard wrote...

What do you mean? that I will be able to see the planet soon enough?
I mean, this really sucks. I've got like 13 side missions in my journal and I ain't able to do any of them becouse I don't have any idea where I should go.

LeBurns i have the game running and am at the screen where i can choose to resume a game, new game, etc.. and it also says Downloadable Content, but if I click on that a pop up window for origin shows up and it says "From Ashes" 800 bioware points, and that is the only downloadable content.. is there something else i should be looking at?

I have about 20 missions in my journal, and completely confused as to how to complete them. Most of them don't even tell me where to go, and those that do, I can't find on the map, because they give reference to just one place, and I have no idea if that's a planet, or a system, or what... Am I missing something here? So far I have to wiki every single mission I get, just because I don't know what to do, which really sucks.
What DLC??

The journal does indeed suck. One of the few things that needs improvement. I guess they never considered that you might miss some dialogue due to people talking to you when you are TRYING TO PLAY MASS EFFECT THREE AND THEY OBVIOUSLY DON'T REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT IT IS!!!!

Agreed. I am getting missions like "Find this item for this person" but yet it doesn't even give me a single location. Nor do I know where Benning and Irune is even located to get what people are asking for. How about a little more detail Bioware so I am not lost?

The journal does indeed suck as I've just discovered, on the indoctrinated Hanar quest. FFS, can't AT ALL tell the RPG stuff took a back seat to the shooting.

I have to agree I can't seem to find the location of the side quest where the supposed Shadow Broker agents that you need to save that the banker gives you after Liara tells you to talk to him.

i really miss not being able to expand quest entries like you could in ME2, it also broke down the quest in multiple parts which was very useful if you weren't fully paying attention to the NPC dialogue, or you forgot what to do.
In any case, most of the quests are just planet scanning and artifact retrieval, so it's not that hard. As a matter of fact, the new journal no longer holds your hand so you actually get feel like you're exploring when you're trying to complete a quest

but on your galaxy map it usually highlights the system/planets that have missions attached to them.

Yeah heaven forbid that you have to pay attention to people when getting quests and the journal doesn't tell you which cluster system and planet it's on and then when you get it it doesn't tell you to go back to them.
Listen most quests have map markers for hand ins. So just hop on the citadel look over all the maps and just find someone you do not recognize and go there to hand it in. If you have explored everywhere you can in the Galaxy map then go complete a priority mission to open up new areas. I figured this out in about an hour of playing the games.
Sounds like you all want a bunch of hand holding or else you'll get lost and confused. Also for the Benning mission you can find his dog tags on the ground and do not have to buy them. You only have to buy those things if you missed them during the mission they were on. It's intuitive but it doesn't tell you point for point where to go. Why not just go the Fable route and mark a quest and have a big gold line lead you everywhere until it's over.
