Relax, she's not the person who'd have the answer, she's not there to provide it for you. She's a CM, not a writer or director.

[LotharanAeron]

If she meant the teleporter beam, then why was Hackett and the fleet still fighting, why just tell Joker to retreat? If it was during the final ABC choice, I don't recall hearing or seeing anything about withdrawing. Even still, that beam fired in seconds and I don't see Joker getting anywhere in that amount of time.

I think she's just trying to cover for her not really knowing either....would look pretty bad if BW's own employees don't understand the ending.

And so... THE SPIN BEGINS!!!

WHEEEEEE~~~

My counter-interrogation: does it matter why he's in the cockpit for four seconds after we just talked to a space god that had absolutely no place in the narrative, were railroaded into three absurd options, and had the self-parodying asinine motivation for the Reapers baldly spat at us?

Does it matter if she can even answer that question, when there are ten thousand questions she can't answer because the developers simply were incapable of meeting their end of the reader-writer contract?

No, I contend it doesn't matter at all. The entire ending needs to be wadded up into a pile of tripe, tied with a lovely polka-dotted bow, and sent back to Bioware for revision.

So shouldn't there be other ships with him?

And how did he pick up my crew from just outside of the beam? If he could get that close he could have dropped off reinforcements

Not to mention that the Normandy has more firepower then a dreadnought, it's worth more war points then some fleets even. It's the last ship that should be retreating..

[Zyrious]

The normandy was the only ship fleeing, as late as shepard opening the arms, hackett and the rest of the fleet are still protecting the crucible (humanities last hope) and are well aware Shepard is alive. When the explosion happens, they are still in orbit of Earth as the field passes harmlessly over them. So why the **** is the normandy fleeing from it?

[Lozark]

This is just insulting. We've played the game, we know what happens. We know what we saw and what we heard. Telling us that thousands of people just happened to mishear something isn't going to fly.

[In Exile]

So how the hell exactly did the Crucible get to the Citadel when the arms opened?

[Tequila Man]

ALL FORCES PULL BACK!..... WHAT?!

"Admiral, some infantry died."

"Even Shepard?!"

"Seems so."

"PULL BACK!"

"Sir, we could just send more infantry. I mean, we must have someone on the ground that's been in the Citadel before. What about Spectre Agent (Ashley/Kaiden)? Or, Urdnot Wrex? Or Gar-"

"PULL THE LARGEST FLEET IN HISTORY BACK BEFORE THE OVERWHELMING GROUND FORCES DEVELOP ROCKET PACKS AND FLY UP HERE AND OVERWHELM US!"

"Sir..."

*Hackett's head explodes*

[kookie28]

I can't wait for an official Bioware comment.

[GhostlyMaiden]

As someone who always plays with subtitles and records first playthrough, here's exactly what was said near the end of the beam part:

Major Coats: God... they're all gone.
Marine: Did we get anyone to the beam?
Major Coats: Negative. Our entire force was decimated.
Major Coats: It's too much. We need to regroup. Fall back to the buildings...
Marine: Hammer's wiped out. All forces... retreat.
Marine: Pull back! Pull back!

Hmmm...may have some basis. Still doesn't explain how Garrus got back on there though.

Hammer was pulling back, not Sword.

Why does that sound so dirty

[GnusmasTHX]

To be fair, Hackett is either dead or himself pulled back too.

Or he's at some odd angle where you can't see him from the Crucible. Hackett was guarding it the whole time so he either got owned or fled while three measly cruisers defended it.

Which is kind of moot because no one was attacking the Crucible anyway.

The ending will be memorable! The more you think about it, the less it makes sense!

[Spectre_Shepard]

A thought:

Joker flies down, rescues your crew but NOT shepard, then flies off?

what?

Exactly. If they were fine why didnt they continue the charge? I would like to think that Garrus at the least if seeing Shepard go down wouldnt be like, "Ah well, time to leave." Hell be screaming bloody murder and probably charging even faster. And I know for a fact Javik wouldn't go back.

I do like the charge though. The idea of it. How the fate of the galaxy has come down to this one run toward a beam of light. I can just imagine all these soldiers screaming as they run toward it.

[The Angry One]

She's just speculating, as we are.
It also has no basis in anything.

[Rain Bringer6]

Look people, obviously Jessica Merizan is a well meaning person, who has no clue about the ending of the game. She also suggests that they landed on Earth because the relay was too far away. This is impossible, as Earth fails to have two moons.

[AusitnDrake]

It still doesn't explain how my squadmates got from running with me toward the beam and supposedly getting decimated along with all the other ground forces, to being on the ship as Joker fled, all within the short time we were on the Citadel. I mean even if they did survive the reapers firing on them do you honestly think they could get a shuttle off-world of get the Normandy to come pick them up with the reapers standing right in front of them.

While her explanation (which is not cannon, nor official, so stop bugging her about answers) lacks logic, it's there. “Hammer’s wiped out. All Forces... retreat.” That's the order.
When the order was given, the relays were still around, going home to regroup was still an option.
So what do the fleets need to escape? The same thing they've always needed. Someone to stay behind to keep the enemy busy.
Hackett has already sacrificed fleets for the sake of retreats before, he'd have to do it at earth too.

Hackett is alive...You *hear* him over the comms a whole 3 minutes before tu rning it on. He also knows you are alive. He and the rest of the fleet are still protecting the crucible,  normandy has no reason to hit FTL. The wave even passes harmlessly over the fleet, as it's still fighting reapers.

[iSpitfireee]

maybe its because the space magic would of seriously F'd up the Normandy because the Normandy had the Reaper IFF?
