"I should run toward the exploding pipe while shooting it"


THIS ^ <_< I never understood why Shep walked towards the pipe and into an explosion :/

I understand it perfectly. Shepard knew the whole thing was a load of crap and wanted it over with.

May be it is not just a pipe, it is very specific pipe. Yes it is very specific magic tube and it is all explained. Stop whining! Understand there are pipes, and there is also the pipes, but specific.

At least they could have put an unlimited ammo Cain on the floor for the Destroy ending. Fire from the distance. Big explosion for the win. Or you could fire at the kid for the other win. So what if Shepard couldn't lift the left arm. There's magic in the air anyway.

You do realize that Shepard wasn't inside the Crucible where the Pipe and control panel were, right?

That was the core of the Citadel, which was inaccessible beforehand. Read the codex on the Keepers.

It's like Hackett said. The Crucible wasn't doing anything and it was apparently something on the Citadel side that had to be done.

I was not aware of that, however, what I was implying with the 'crucible will be destroyed' line was the literal 'The Crucible has been destroyed.' message that you get when you wait too long on the Catalyst.


But just so we are absolutely clear.

"So I have to shoot this pipe to save the galaxy?"
"Yes. Shoot the pipe and you will save the galaxy from the reapers."
"Why do I have to shoot this pipe?
"You could also grab those glowing joy sticks or jump into the beam of light, if you prefer that."
"I mean, why would anyone build a device that gets activated by shooting a pipe?"
"I don't know. I'm just here to tell you what it does."
"So what will shooting that pipe do exactly?"
"It will destroy all synthetic life. Even you are partly synthetic."
"So you're implying I will die?"
"Actually, I'm not sure about that... what's your EMS again?"
"Nevermind. What about EDI?"
"Probably... wait, no, it's been confirmed she survives."
"Now that's just absurd.  So now you're saying shooting that pipe only destroys a certain type of synthetics? Does that pipe have a personality of its own or something? How does it choose who to destroy or not destroy exactly?"
"Listen, if you don't hurry up already the crucible will be destroyed."
"What? By whom?"
"Unfortunately, you won't get to see that."
"Alright, I'll just shoot this pipe and we'll see what happens."
"Fun!"
- Extended cut dialogue with the Catalyst

EDIT: Also, because DJBare reminded me:
Shepard's Internal Voice while shooting the pipe: "Slowly walking and directly looking into the explosion will guarantee to make me look like a cool guy. Or was it 'Cool Guys don't look at ex-" *Citadel explodes*


Wait.  How do I "survive" (maybe) this exlposion I just got engulfed in?

You guys just don't understand, shooting the pipe is the only way the game could have ended. Reapers are immune to any form of conventional attack. If you look at the word "con-vent-ion" you will actually see that it is a concatenation of the Latin prefix con-, meaning "with," with the words "vent" and "ion." It literally means "with an ion vent."

Thus, the only way to destroy the Reapers is to destroy the ion vent that powers them, because that is the only choice that eliminates convention.

Whine whine whine. You play a sci-fi game and you complain over the pipes, when you have synthetics with with a lamp in their head. Stop overanalyzing every piece of the game, i feel sorry for you. What do you want? Shepard with a thanix cannon shooting at the pipes?


I think it's very clear what most of us want. You on the other hand what do you get out belittling legitimate customer complaints? does it make you feel all grown up and edgy or something?

The blue text controls your thoughts. The red arrow destroys that line of thought and makes you seek it's destination. The green circle synthesises that destination with the conclusion. For you are there.

Now give me an award for art.

Sooo my Shep jumping into the magic beamPosted Image and f__king the galaxy was the wrong choice. I know my Shep wouldn't have chosen control because those handles weren't earthed and he would have been electricuted. Not so sure shooting a pipe while walking closer to it was a good idea either, anything could have happened. Now did anyone find the facepalm of death button to shut that starkid up?

I shot the pipe too. I wanted to shoot something and since my bullets kept flying through the kid's head, it had to be that.

Why would whoever invented the Crucible make three choices that were all activated different ways anyway? Could they not make up their mind as they were building it? And how did all the human, asari, salarian, rachni engineers who put it together not understand what they were building when it was something as pathetically simple as "jump in light to win" or "shoot pipe to win".

It also begs the question: does Shepard have to jump into the beam? Couldn't they have thrown in TIM's corpse or something? How about one of the mangled bodies from inside the Citadel? Why did it have to be Shepard?

Kid did not say anything about indoctrinated bodies being bad, the big thing i got was that the body had to be part synthetic, im so tossing TiM's A** in there.

Because that's so ridiculous nobody with a bit of sanity could have assumed that, only through a deus ex machina could one fully comprehend the ridiculousness.

No, as I said earlier. I didn't like the ending, but whining about it 24/7 won't make it better. They are working on the extended cut, but still people are whining. The extended cut is not enough for some people, and still they don't even know it's content. All we know is that it will give us clarification and closure. 

And legitimate customer complaints? Tell it to Bioware employees who have been  harassed and threatened by some people, I know not all people are like that. But I see alot of whining about small things that don't even matter. If you analyze all games like some people do about ME3, there wouldn't be any good games at all. I know ME3 have some flaws, but all games  has flaws.

EDIT: And most of us want? Don't you think there are alot of people out there who likes this game but doesn't bother to come to this forum? People who likes to complain about something they don't like wan't to get response from developers and other people, while others who like the game are playing it instead of being here.
