 I've got about 4,900 through just SP and MP at 75%...

I think the point of the thread is can be ahieved without MP.

Did the person who pm'ed Thomas Abram about the war asset list get a response? I really believe he would help us if he thought it were a real problem.

Yep. Basically it is possible to get 4000plus in the game only playing single player (so 8000 found) as he's done it.

I read a couple of things into it:

The implication is that they are no going to change anything (i asked directly and was ignored). Therefore, so you either have to do it perfect (as deemed by bioware) or get multiplayer.

I said this to Abram and that I was disappointed. As I feel I've been treated as second class and it wouldn't be my game anymore. 

I was very polite. Though I expect I'll get nothing further.

[Ravennus]

It doesn't matter. We are talking about EMS WITHOUT MULTIPLAYER or iOS APPS!

It's not possible. Period. You cannot get 4000 or higher, even with the current From Ashes DLC.

I got 99% of the war assets. I had a perfect save from ME1 throught to ME2.
I mostly play paragon, but I made some renegade decisions that netted me more points in the end.

YOU CANNOT GET 4000 EMS OR HIGHER WITH SINGLEPLAYER ONLY.

Doesn't matter what you do. It doesn't matter what choices you make in all 3 games.
It's simply not possible.

As has been mentioned... people have dived into the game code that we currently have access to, and it's not possible. That many war assets DO NOT EXIST.

You HAVE to play MP or download the iOS apps to get the 'Breath' destroy ending.

If anyone at Bioware or EA is saying otherwise, there are only two options.
They are either lying and trolling us on purpose, which I actually have a hard time believing (so no need to ban me for mentioning it, thanks)

OR they are somehow playing a different build of the game than we are.
Maybe more was cut from the game when it went gold than they realize, or they are playing with DLC that we don't have yet.

Fact of the matter is that it's not possible. At all. End of discussion.

Why they refuse to admit that this is true FOR THE GAME WE GOT, is beyond me.
If people are really sending them saved files and details list of war assets, why can't they see that there is something wrong.

Hell, the sticky from Jarret Lee is STILL up saying that there is MORE than enough war assets in single player to get the 'best' ending.
Some people have thought that meant just the 'green' synthesis ending, but now we have confirmation from other EA/BIoware employees that they do infact mean the 'breath' destroy ending, which requires a minimum of 8000 war assets (thus 4000 EMS) from SP alone.

This does not jive. This is not the game we bought. This is not what we are playing.
Code doesn't lie. Our experiences do not lie.

So I will respect the EA/Bioware employees and not call them liars.... but PLEASE, extend US the same courtesy. We are intelligent and many of us are huge fans of Bioware and the Mass Effect franchise.

But we are telling you without any possible doubt that THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE.

Please listen. Please.

Again, I will not call him a liar.

However, he cannot be playing the same version of the game that we are.
It's not possible.  If you do the math with the best possible playthrough of all 3 games.... if you make the most ideal Paragon/Renegade decisions to net you the highest possible war assets... if you do everything perfectly in the DLC... you WILL NOT GET 4000 or more EMS!

The code has been examined.  The math has been done.  It's not possible with the version we currently paid for, period.

[Boudicia_]

Well and here is the thing as well guys. Thomas Abrams pm'd me that he just got 5,000 EMS (10,000 war assets). Something is very wrong here. I'm replaying the game since my save games are gone (I really did not want to because the ending... but oh well) and seeing if he will examine my save. I just don't understand it. Ravennus, could you PM him and see if he will examine your save?

[Cratto]

Well I've asked if he (Abram or other bioware people) could release his war asset total / list which equates to 8000 / 10000 or 4000 / 5000 with the readiness / galaxy at war penalty. It might not go anywhere but if they do, then it's a challenge to match or there's a hiccup which can be patched. It has happened with me3, developers have admitted errors have crept in with dialogue and the face importing issue. Mistakes happen and we live in the Internet age so it's easy to sort. Not hopeful, but it's worth a try.

The answer was: I'll look into it.

It really hard to disagree with this....i'm trying to give them (Bioware) the benefit of the doubt but it doesnt look good.  Unless as previously stated,  they are playing a diffrent version than us.   Abrams replied to me and said they might be able to put something together noting the most difficult ones to achieve...BUT, I dont know whether they will do it or not.

[tbb033]

Us: There's not enough EMS in SP
Them: There's enough
Us: No, here is the evidence
Them: There's enough
Us: Then what are we missing
Them: There's enough

They're like a broken record. An incorrect and/or lying one.

except that you're wrong. I just double checked. Without using multiplayer OR hacking/changing code etc, just by playing the game, I have an EMS of 6779. This is before the IM's base because it rewinds you back to there after the ending.... My War assets are at 7290 (because I haven't done the IM's base yet after it rewound, so...) and my readiness rating at 93%.

so no, you can get above 4k, I did without mp.

-Spoiler warning even though the other guy didn't-

oh and by the way, the CE game guide says that the best ending possible (at last for destroying the collector's base in me2) requires a minimum of 5000 points, and that is the destroy option. That is the most points required for any ending, so.... yeah. Wherever you're getting your info from is wrong.

My concerns is that if the extended cut dlc is going to explain the endings you achieved then i'm going to assume (and maybe im stupid for thinking this) that shepard in the rubble will be addressed also.  Right?  it says while they werent going to fix the endng they would be providing clarity. My line of thinking on this is"no rubble shephard, no explination for it." and they need to explain the ending to me.

Dude as soon as you said you had total war assets of 7000+ your point became moot,,, for obvious reasons

*shrugs* well the readiness rating is effected by mp, but not the EMS or the war assets unless you promote people. 


don't get me wrong I play multiplayer, I just don't promote guys. 

and also, multiplayer stuff doesn't show up on the war map. Heard that from a bioware employee about a week after release.

Your EMS is your total assets * your readiness rating, so your EMS is directly affected by MP even if you don't promote people.

Does FB refer to facebook? Is there some facebook app or some other 'galaxy at war' avenue that improves galactic readiness that I'm not aware of because I only know of Infiltrator, Datapad and Multiplayer.

P.S. like most people here who know the difference between TWA and EMS I also have found it is impossible to break even at least 3,800 EMS at 50% galactic readiness which is what you get if you only play singleplayer. (again I also did the math = what I got versus what I didn't get that was available and not mutually exclusive with other war assets) Being constantly ignored and/or told we're wrong without explanation despite all evidence to the contrary is, to put it mildly, a little frustrating.

The hell if I know!!! someone mentioned it as an option..so i wanted to offer him/her all possible options  to explain how he/she come to this conclusion...for the record i've only heard of  Data APP, Infiltrator or MP to increase assets.

except that you're wrong. I just double checked. Without using multiplayer OR hacking/changing code etc, just by playing the game, I have an EMS of 6779. This is before the IM's base because it rewinds you back to there after the ending.... My War assets are at 7290 (because I haven't done the IM's base yet after it rewound, so...) and my readiness rating at 93%.

so no, you can get above 4k, I did without mp.

Dude, explain this to me slowly so i dont miss it... How did you achieve a readiness rating of 93% without MP/FB or IOS.  

*shrugs* well the readiness rating is effected by mp, but not the EMS or the war assets unless you promote people. 

Your EMS is your total assets * your readiness rating, so your EMS is directly affected by MP even if you don't promote people.

great... except that whatever you do in multiplayer doesn't show up on the map

unless they updated that, in which case I'm wrong and that fact changes my entire point, and I now agree with you. 

so if they updated it, great, good for you

if they didn't, then something's wrong.

Anyways, imma do what I originally came here to do and answer the person's question.

If you're looking for a way to get the most possible war assets and readiness points without playing multiplayer or infiltrator, I suggest getting the game guide. That'll show you all the best ways in detailed walkthroughs. Good luck.
