Not entirely. While one Shepard is not like another, it is still possible to let's say romance no on in ME1, Tali in 2 and 3, and still see Liara or the VS in the ending flashback. While on another Shepard it's possible not to recruit Tali in ME1, and have her die in ME2 so she's not even in 3. Liara Ashely and Kaiden are the only ones you have no choice about recruiting in 1, but none of them can be recruited in 2 (Liara doesn't really count as a squadmate since she's only a squadmate in DLC) and all three are guranteed squad members in ME3 (minus the VS that didn't survive ME1 obviously..[/quote]
Wrong, you can shoot the VS in the Udina coup.[/quote]
Wrong about what? I was comparing 2 different possible Shepards. But to your point if the VS is shot during the coup than you will more than likely see Liara in the flashbacks regardless if she's your LI or not. Another variable resulting in the same flashbacks and the same question: Why show Joker Anderson then your LI only if it was Liara/Ashley/Kaiden and not any other LI if any of those three weren't your Shepard's LI?
[/quote]
Maybe the hight pitch notes that play during those three flashbacks might help draw a connection. Also, all three flashbacks are
blue toned (control/Reaper color).
Also, the sounds play during the three pulses of the
blue Crucible beam.
Maybe Megumi's sig might provide a hint. Thought, we haven't really theorized about Joker fitting into that.
Hm...for some reason Kaiden isn't shown in the flashbacks.
[/quote]
Possible, but here's something interesting:
Blue ending:
Train sound insert, connotations we've already discussed.
Green ending:
Strange, haunting background sound,
very faint but listening to it on its own or playing without music there's the unmistakeable sound of husks

Red ending:
No insert...

yes he did he said "I am the vangurd of your distruction,' which stats that each Repears is independent.[/quote]
Ohhh,
I bet that's what happened. Sovereign was a vanguard. He died because
he got hit by the vanguard bug. That's why it looked like he was
drifting off into space...

Except getting into bloodrage will help the team more than just sniping them off.
When
I'm not a Kroguard I just focus on assisting allies, but when I am one I
prefer to stay in bloodrage to keep fire off of teammates.[/quote]
...
Bad news. You know how MP has more bugs than a $50/month apartment?
Yeah, kroguard's blood rage doesn't actually do anything except murder
your vision. But hey, at least geth don't stunlock you? =/

-snip pics showing the garden the kid was in during the prologue wasn't really there-
I
get the feeling Bioware would say " Oh that. That was just an error
that we never fixed." I would hate it if they did that.[/quote]
Sure are a lot of "errors" that point to IT...
[quote]Also get in the mako and go on a rampage.[/quote]
No
offense but I think I might prefer to let the Reapers extinguish all
life rather than use the mako again. Or any vehicle named after
something with gills.

If

The more ITers the merrier.

I'm
up for MP whenever too if anyone wants. Origin ID is Veladus. Be nice
to play with something besides strangers. Also be nice to play with
people I know are smart enough not to stand in front of a banshee and
slowly melee it to death. ... Stupid krogan. <grumble>

Oh, remember Javik's debate with EDI in the AI core?
"And what if your upgrade endangers others? All machines eventually see organics as a threat."
Does sound familiar, doesn't it?[/quote]
Javik
should be drawn and quartered. But yeah, that was part of my reasoning
on Harbinger being the Prothean Reaper. His horrible mockery of logic
and reason is exactly the same as the Protheans'.
[quote]Dwailing wrote...
OK,
honestly, I don't hate Javik like some others. In fact, I kind of
found him to be a tragic figure once you learn about what happened to
him.[/quote]
If you think he's tragic now, wait until you see what I did with him.

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen,
Tonight, I have two words for you; two very important words:
Vorcha Soldier.
Yes, you heard me right, Vorcha Soldier.
This
guy is absolutely hilarious to listen to, all his unique animations are
awesome, and he is super fun to play as. I highly recommend giving it a
try (if you're into MP of course)!
Also, if anybody ever wants to play some PC MP, my Origin username is someotherguy86.
Having said that, how are you all tonight? [/quote]

Why do you refuse to do MP? Its pretty damned fun
[/quote]I've
attempted MP three times now, the one thing that always puts me off, I
cannot relax into the game, it's why I have always preferred single
player, I can pause anytime I want.

Simple solution: IDT thread multiplayer

It's weird that the brat child
says " but you can control us" US" why do I want to control the Child
and the Reapers. and Shepard saying " so the Illusive man was right
after all" you just spent 7 minutes talking with the Illusive man about
controlling56 the Reapers is not the way and convinced him he was wrong
and dies.[/quote]
No, don't forget, no reading between the lines, bioware are bad writers etc

I've played tons of matches and never really run into anyone with a bad mentality.
Have you even given it a shot?
I
remember I was super pissed when I originally heard ME3 was gonna have
MP, but I've had an overwhelmingly positive experience with it
[/quote]
The
only issue I ever have with MPer's is when I'm playing a Kroguard and
some sniper genius decides it's best to snipe the targets I was trying
to bash in for Bloodrage instead of letting me pulverize them. [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/angry.png[/smilie]

Although I've promoted my infiltrator so now I'm that dick with the vanguard who steals your kill by charging it right as you're about to land the finishing blow

ok hears somthing to speculate.
as we know we see the kid playing at the beginning of ME3. hear is picture from Shepard room

now
after the reapers arrive an you gain control of Shepard for the first
time you can see the same place but the garden no longer exists, it's
just gone

hears me looking at it in normal game play

and flycam back where Shepard room was looking down.

really now, how did I miss this all this time?
now I need some sleep so have fun speculating .

Great find, prettz! [throws it onto the 'evidence' pile]

I think there's a geth plasma weapon in SP. Fires with increasing frequency.[/quote]
I
love that damned gun. It's pretty much the only weapon I ever used once
I found it in SP. Never runs out of ammo, and if you can track
something full blast with it, it usually takes it down.
But yes I agree all MP weapons should port to SP. Would make the dlc packs much more attractive to SPers. I've started
a separate thread about how all the MP maps should also appear in SP as N7 missions.
[/quote]
Guardian's Garden? Hm.
[/quote]
It's interesting, that vegetation looks really quite out of place now that I look at it

I may have a funny memory, but am I right in thinking there was a rooftop garden on the room that gets destroyed after he runs inside?
[quote]MegumiAzusa wrote...
Btw scouted the map for signs in
the alien language (some devs using that to hide some easter
eggs/forshadowing) yeah the result was quite depressing xD

[/quote]
As much as there's nothing there, which levels was this in? It'd be interesting to see if there are any actually useful ones in the game...
