Hi folks,
I took a brief post-EC break from the thread. Has anything important been learned or revealed in the last week or so?
BioWare still hates everyone who can't appreciate their artistic integrity.
Carry on.

The exact same thing happens at the end of the game.Andromidius wrote...
Here's a question...
During the intro Anderson hands Shepard his own sidearm. And yet he's also got another gun for himself which we don't see. Where did he pull the gun from?
Also, why does he seem completely unharmed? Everyone else in the room was dead, Shepard was stunned and bleeding a bit... But Anderson seems completely fine.
Fishy...

Yeah it is odd. From a writing standpoint, they're probably the most important parts.Andromidius wrote...

Well, something very similar at least.
Its odd that most of the plotholes/inconsistancies are found at the beginning and the end of the game...

Secondary gun: game mechanic, can't always see a gun in a cinematic until it's pulled out somewhere. Not only that but we know he has a secondary Predator, The Illusive Man yanks it from his belt during the Citadel encounter.

Why carry two Predators though? It serves no particular advantage. Usually a sidearm is a lighter and smaller weapon for use in emergencies.
Just an odd observation.

No clue, just speculating. Maybe Anderson's just a BAMF who carries two pistols for action scenes.
or he just grabbed one from a dead body, it showed him inspecting the wreckage and bodies checking for survivors. they are in a military installationgunslinger_ruiz wrote...

Its possible he picked one up off a dead body, but why give Shepard the one he's got holstered? And why didn't we see it beforehand while walking to the meeting?
Not to mention the Predator isn't a military sidearm. But hey.

Good question. I'm sure the people who wrote the weapon descriptions were not the same as the ones who gave people guns. Not sure. Going from descriptions, all marines should carry phalanxes.Andromidius wrote...

Which is a bizzare thing for the whole series - why tell us that its a non-military weapon, and then have it be as common as muck among soldiers?

If I'm reading that right the child's animations are named "Guardian". This is very curious, as Merizan referred to him and the Guardian, and it never says "Catalyst" the the subtitles. It simply says "Child". They didn't even pull off a Legion and change the subtitles after he says "I am the catalyst from "Child" to "Catalyst". Weird.TSA_383 wrote...
So, some stuff for the ending sequence:
*The helmet removed from
Coates is confirmed as not a standard bit of uniform for marines - the
files actually identify it as Kaidan's helmet, but it's also Shepard's
one, and the animation for the Keeper removing it from Coates identifies the helmet as Shepard's...

I just highlighted what I wanted colored and clicked on the T symbol to change the color o.o
There was one instance where the color reset after I put a new line of text under it, I think I had to space it with an enter stroke to get it back.

With Valkyries as standard rifles.
I think it all relates to the symbology of the Predator and the Carnifex. Which in quite subtle.Andromidius wrote...

Either that or its Bioware being mega-subtle and saying 'don't trust everything the Journal tells you'. Or maybe a more general 'don't trust what anyone says'.

I can do that here, but when I do it in the sig editor it resets every time I press save.
EDIT: now it's reseting here tooI know it used to work
