I love you OP.

[Cribbian]

I support this.

Support this I do.

It's too ambitious for BioWare. Oops, I really said that. Oh well. Regardless, priority Earth really needs something more than charging forward and shooting. This is the worst mission in the entire trilogy. I want to see my pokemons war assets in action. That's why I recruited them.

*HOW DECISIONS COULD AFFECT THE CURRENT PRIORITY EARTH MISSIONS*

This is a great map of how decisions and EMS could effect the Priority: Earth mission.

(NB, this isn't my own work, so huge kudos to the maker ^^)

(Also NB, some of these contradict the 'Possible examples' part of the thread, however this just shows other 'possibilities' for what the writers could do with the mission)

You know, this chart has to be recreated.

Because it has few but major logical fallacies.

I think my samara example wouldn't be too ambitious, but I do agree about the other two.

Well, I like your ideas, but I don't think that BioWare would do something with them. BioWare's laziness.. or artistic integrity and other bs. Anyway, I support your ideas. Keep up the good work.

I would sign on to a more inspired London mission before the beam... Im not sure about the rest but the whole take back earth mission seemed a little lacking imo, said it before.

I would be perfectly happy to have Biowares writers come up with something but that mission was sadly missing storytelling and playeragency and it didn't adapt to any choices you had made and or didn't give you any real choices to affect the battle field. It was far too much Hordemode.
That turret defence efent in FOB could have been about saving two survivors from the transport that just broke down outside the gates.
Trying to keep them alive so they can get in would have made it feel more of a worthy cause for Shepard to man the turret instad of getting the mission going.
Sucessfully saving them could yield valuable intel. - feedback for the mission ahead...
During the mission you could encoutner wounded soldiers that you can offer medigel or save it for yourself, perhaps 2 or 3 doses to make it seem like a choice. Perhaps even some Ammo.

Some sabotage of enemy indoctrination and control hubs/artifacts.. Which would be a form of Communication sabotage.

Perhaps some additional choices along the way, (affected by what resources you brought to earth)

That would have yielded a more enjoyable Earth mission, not nessesarily, you bring lots you pawn the reapers, but maybe you bring support and help and more people have a chance to make it out alive, especaily after the retreat is ordered.
Perhaps N7ops forces had been running disturbance and distraction missions outside London and other nearby areas to lure Reaperforces from London, and perhaps they can rejoin the London forces after the retreat at the beam debackle and save some lives.
It would be easier to fly in close now that a lot of the reaper forces AA defences have been weakened and their forces thinned out somewhat.
Just making the warassets feel more involved in the mission and actualy make the mission react to decisions you make.

They should have done this in the EC but I still give my support here

[plfranke]

This has more artistic integrity than all of Bioware combined.

[Skeem]

No to cutscenes, yes to in-game involvement, assets/ characters can run in from the side to give you a helping hand with fire support, then stay there to hold that ground. Then in the next area other assets are involved and so on.

Why no to cutscenes though?

So more along the lines of samara's example, then?

The trouble with having no cutscenes at all is that it will be hard to show starship war assets

To be honest, I don't think most of the space war assets have any hope of being shown anyway. However, I still don't understand why cutscenes would be a bad thing. I love your example of Jack and Miranda.

I don't think that Grunt should be getting man handled by this Brute and Wrex just comes in and ahnihilates the Brute though. Can they maybe work together to take down the Brute or if the idea is to make them stronger than Brutes, have them fighting Brutes back to back. But, I don't like the idea of Grunt being Wrex's kid brother on the battlefield.

I like this idea but alas Biowares Artisticness comes to mind >.>

Maybe I can grunt was inspired by wrex's leadership and managed to break free of the brute by himself, or something?

And in terms of space assets, i was thinking that the smaller fleets would still be announced in 'the fleets arrive'.

So not just geth/quarian, asari and turian fleets, but also hanar fleets, elcor flotilla, batarian fleet etc.

Do whatever feels right, you're doing an excellent job as it is. I just felt Grunt came off really weak in that scene especially as powerful as he's shown to be in the rachni cave. And that's a good idea, and then they could even just show the inside of a ship with a batarian inside or something like that.

True enough, big war assets like that need a cutscene for sure, the Volus dreadnaught for example, but the character based assets, ME2 suicide mission survivors, various squads, should all be shown in action during the 'Big push'.

It would be awsome to see them involved, and it lends to show just how important the Priority:Earth mission is if all these assets are being thrown at it.

I don't think the artists have anything against it - the Bioware team actually support things like this. Hell, they'd probably love to do it. But it's not just a matter of wanting it to happen. They've got to look at their budget, time projection, marketing potential, ect. They need to pay the animators, voice actors, and dev team after all.
If it were just a matter of imagining new cutscenes, gametypes, or enemies, there'd be twice as much content in both the Single Player and Multiplayer as there is now, but someone's actually got to make it. It actually involves work.

So no, this isn't a matter of Artisticness. It's a matter of you probably not understanding what a project like this would require. :\\
