i'm just starting the quarian missions on this playthru and i'm sitting at 3872ems points and did not finish lotsb or overlord, or alot of side missions in me2 on my current char so i say yes can be done.


No, you don't. And no, it can't.


yes i do thank you very much i just checked again.



it is not your EMS that is 3872 - your EMS is half that or just under 2000 unless you played MP and got your GR up to 100% - I mean if you are going to comment at least have your facts straight...


your right just looked it up again i'm only at 1978 ems which had me laughing same year i was born. my tms is actually 3957. so i wrong on both accounts i apologize.

It can't be done. I started using my other halfs IPad so I can play the app. Only way for me to get my EMS up

It can't be done. This is one of the most fundamentally deceitful things Bioware did. It's obviously being buried beneath the ending fallout, but should be given greater scrutiny. Just add this to the long list of lies fed.

Nope. My husband and I don't have XBox Live Gold so can't play multiplayer. We both imported games started from ME1 where all sidequests and resources were obtained, and did everything we possibly could, including From Ashes DLC, and did not reach 4000. They say it can be done, but without further DLC, it just isn't possible.

If anyone needs it, I have a code for a two-day gold pass for XBL. Just pm me and it's yours. It would be easier just using Gibbed, though. That is what I plan on doing if I decide to play a second round.

Again, the problem is they never specified what the "best" ending is, we are ASSUMING that the "take a breath" scene is the best ending, when it might just be an easter egg tacked onto the only ending that is always available by default.

The hardest ending to unlock is Synthesis, as it requires the most EMS, so all they have to say is "Yeah, that's what we meant" and the discussion is over.

True, but they stated many times that MP wouldn't effect any aspects of SP. That anything you could achieve in MP, you could achieve in SP. Either way, it was a lie.

Err...it would be pretty hard. After awhile I just gave in and played the multiplayer. Not the most fun thing around, but it's decent.

Hmm.. if that's true (that anything you could achieve in MP, you can in SP alone), then I concede the point. The quotes I recall are a bit flimsier, sounding more like "You can absolutely get the best ending only in SP", or something like that.

Not sure why so many people are opposed to multiplayer. It's coop and easy to get your readiness to 100%. Hell, if you gather all the points, you don't even need to get to 100%. I didn't think I would like the MP, but after getting used to it I try to do a couple matches each night. More if it's with friends.



I guess people don't like it because they feel kind of forced to do it, otherwise their readiness degrades.

And then there are folks like me. If I buy a single player game, I want a SINGLE PLAY and not something the dev forces upon me.

BTW, what could be the interest of BW and / or EA to force us into MP?

When I did my first playthrough without using any of the multiplayer I got to about 4283 or some crazy odd number like that, but I think thats about all you can do without any multiplayer to help you get more from your War Assets.

I got 25 pts for having extra minerals from ME2. Didn't have fish but bought some new ones; does that help? I don't think I can make it to 4,000 even with these, so I'll just bump 'er up with Gibbed for the great new ending they are working on. (whimsically hopeful).

No you can't.. I am playing the crappy iOS game to get my readiness up


That's the point. Because of the iOS game, yes you can. Without it, no you couldn't.

Yeah. I'm doing the same. First some quick money in the game to get little bonus and then just those longest missions for the money to get all ships. After that just use the shortest missions for fastest readiness rate.

I think the easiest way for Bioware/EA to fix this problem with readiness rate available though MP or Datapad (which might not be available forever) is to have patch or DLC to add the Datapad Galaxy at War game inside the ME3 itself. I think it would work fine as small minigame accessed though the war room. A bit like they did with the mini comic to play quickly the ME1 choices for ME2.

Well, there is this. Note the bolded.


"It's a fun and novel way to increase that number and open things up by having a diverse range of experiences," Flynn explained. "At the same time, you don't need to. You can stick to the single-player campaign. I'm sure there are a lot of completists out there who want to do that. They'll have amazing experiences and they'll get to see all the cool stuff they want to see just by doing single-player stuff.

"It's very optional. There's nothing walled off to you because you didn't play multiplayer and you're going to be running around at midnight saying, I need three friends! Quickly! We've got to find a BestBuy that's open! No. You'll get your amazing ending and amazing experiences just by playing single-player if you want that way."

Nope I had 4,283 in EMS not TMS actual TMS I had about 8k or so. I originally thought thats what mattered when people were like "you need 5k to make Shepard live" then I realised it was the EMS which is why I didn't have enough and also because I didn't do the destroy Reaper choice. xD

We need to wait for some more DLC to gain 4000+ EMS without MP..

Patience is a must here.. lol

To avoid the grinds I downloaded a ME3 game save editor. After about a minute I had an extra 5k readiness and called it a day.

Maybe Bioware is confused about the EMS/TMS thing too. That's why they haven't changed their sticky. >.>

Screens or it didn't happen. The numbers have been calculated. It is not possible to reach 4k, let alone over reach.
