Or perhaps the Alliance navy utilizes more flexible security procedures then you are assuming.

I very highly doubt that 's case. That's a tremendous step backwards in security and information protection. Most likely, it was ****** poor understanding of military procedure.

I'm curious. In ME1, do you let Rear Admiral Mikhailovich inspect the Normandy? I usually tell him to get lost because it amuses me, unless it's a first playthrough and I want the XP.

She isn't wrong, it's just that she isn't politically correct and convenient.

Yep and that upsets the uber-sensitive gamers.

I always tell him to beat it, and I never show him any real deference. I don't have respect for him for pulling rank (or trying too). Plus, my Shepard isn't a fan of the alliance either.

[CynicalShep]

Yeah, but unless 6 billion people are in your pocket, what choice do you have

Run faster than that bear, run down a hill (bears have shorter front "arms", they struggle on a downward slope), try to inflict as much damage as I can while my dog distracts it(e.g. eyes), try to look as big and menacing as I can and growl at the big guy, aaaand that's about it.

[KaiserShep]

Bears can run more than twice as fast as we can, uphill, downhill and along slopes.

I'm hardly sensitive, but I feel that Ashley was right for the wrong reasons.

I have to say the, best thing to do is to avoid the bear. It will run faster than you, and it will not be intimidated by you. Be loud. Bears are naturally shy, and even an aggressive hungry male will more than likely leave.

That whole bit feels like some kind of test to see if you've been putting points toward your persuasion so you can get through the entirety of his dialogue and sway him (I always can), but telling him to clear the gangway is just super satisfying.

Massively, Massively my fellow Cerberus tovarishch. I am only referring to the politically correct crowd.

[Iakus]

you don't 'fast track' a security clearance. It takes months (if not a year) to pass it. It was just poor understanding of military procedure.

And likely some of that too.

I suppose I could wrestle it like the Texas ranger, but I'm no Chuck Norris. I am, however, more intelligent than your average bear and can fit in places he can't. So, it all depends on terrain and location, really.

That's Possible, though still conjecture, there's still enough  reasonable explanations for ashley's smooth transfer to the Normandy, but once again all in the realm of conjecture.

Then why did he enlist in the Alliance to begin with?

Eh, PC isn't entirely bad. If I wasn't on my phone, I'd link you my survey I made for my Senior thesis where people who were 'opposed' to PC only disliked about 10-15% of it. Only the extreme ideologues are entirely for or against PC. But that said, I get what you're saying and agree.

That's the idea, being loud. I hardly expect a bear to sh*t himself when he sees me but they aren't big on taking chances unless they're desperate. Being outnumbered and out yelled might make him not want to test the waters (if he only knew...)

The same kind of explanation for Ashley 's jump in rank, probably .

You have to channel the strength of Putin. He wrestles bears bare-handed, then eats Cheerios from their skulls.

[sH0tgUn jUliA]

Bioware has had very poor understanding about military ranks, security clearance, promotions, weapons, and ... well pretty much everything to do with the military.

His chest hair is said to cure cancer and he shoots laz0rs out of his eyeballs. I cannot hope to be half as impressive as that manly man is.

[jtav]

I really hope BW either hires a consultant and listens to them or stays away from writing about the military.

That would probably avoid some of the more WTF-inducing details, yeah.

And a lot of it is incredibly basic and not plot relevant, like the crazy rank jumps. And while we're at it, also grab someone who passed high school biology.
