I'll submit the change if I can replicate it. How did you verify the WA totals?
By playing the game.
If you want, play the game and have your assets at 2900 when heading to Earth and then save Anderson. That way you can verify it for yourself

I got a constant 9000 EMS or so when I used to play.
It's really not difficult.

Really, it's a lot more difficult to do bad enough get the average or crap endings. You have to ignore everything that isn't the main story path on purpose and intentionally make stupid decisions.
I imagine it is easier for people who don't play multiplayer for whatever reason.

Its not that hard. To get a low ems run (below 1750) your tms has to be 3499 or lower with your galactic readiness at 50%. You're still able to do a lot in the game. I 've done it a few times. Yes I ignored a few things, but I did do side missions that involved ME2 characters.
Regards modding:
You can get Mass effect 1 & 2 as a package on steam, it was quite cheap a while ago.
The DLC though is through bioware points ![]()

ME1 has a massive texture overhaul available which does an excellent job of making the game look better, from this:

To this:

Modding ME2 is much more difficult, it's a real pain in the arse. But if you persevere you can get some improvement (although oddly ME2 looks graphically better in some cases than ME3):
From:

To:

ME3 is the easiest as there is more content and a dedicated tool (with lots of tutorials to help you along). You can get it looking quite good compared to vanilla:
From:

To:

I'm currently using ME1 texture mod and it looks much better!
On your ME2 screens I don't see much difference, only the texture of Grunt's arms is noticeably changed (can't say I like the new one). Same goes for ME3, don't really notice differences. Maybe it's the lighting or angle?

It's probably down to the massive amounts of AA etc i run anyway. I'll see if i can dig out a better comparison.
Here we go - note especially Garrus' armour and the increased detail on Shep's armour.


Stock textures in the main are not terrible, except for NPCs: those are ****** terrible when not replaced:

Just check out that clothing.
It's impossible for people who promote a lot in Multiplayer. I think I've gotten to the point where it could be impossible for me as well.
I know nothing about the multiplayer part. I only played it to get my galactic readiness above 50% and that was back in March 2012. There's no way for you to use that gibbed thing to adjust your ems?

I believe the N7 Spec Ops stays, and I believe its asset value isn't changeable on gibb, but I haven't tried it. I know for a fact that some people have over 20,000 EMS even at 50% Galactic Readiness.

Those stock textures on Rila are horrible! After two years no one has got around to fixing them?!
I was hoping for something like M.E.U.I.T.M. for ME2 and 3.
I like the first version of Shepard's armor, the second one looks a bit too clean
Quite a lot of the NPC clothing has been done, but there is also a lot which is still horrible.
What really irks me is that high res versions are easily available if Bioware could be bothered to release them. They created them after all!
I see that Garrus' armors are different, but all that looks like to me is that one set is newer. I get the feeling that I'm no insensitive to this stuff that I'm incapable of perceiving the problems.Here we go - note especially Garrus' armour and the increased detail on Shep's armour.
Same Alan I think maybe my eyes are getting old.
Not meaning to change the topic but I've heard there is a way to save the Geth and the Quarians, I've read on places that it is possible, but on my last play through I didn't get the option. So i just want to know is it possible? And if so how do I do it?
Also I read on the wiki that if your EMS is high enough to survive but only just then Traynor will put your name plaque above Anderson's, But if you get an EMS that's too high, she holds herself back. What EMS is too high for this scene to happen?

This is what it says in the Colector's Edition Guide Book (page 263) You have to have a save import from ME2
Save Tali from exile in ME2.(+2 points) Now I know if you turn over the evidence to the Admirals, Tali will be found innocent, but will not be loyal
Destroy the heretic geth in "A House Divided" during Legion's loyalty mission(+2 points)
Get peace between Tali and Legion in ME2(+1 point) I would suggest making a save before doing this in case you pick the wrong dialogue
Complete the Geth Fighter Squadron mission
Complete "Rannoch Admiral Koris" (+1 point)
Save Admiral Koris(+1 point)
You have to have at least 5 points to acheive peace and have at least 4 bars filled for your reputation.

To have Samantha not put up the nameplate, your ems has to be at least 3100 or higher and pick destroy.
Your ems can be as high as possible and she still can put the nameplate on the wall if you choose to pick control or synthesis.
If your ems is below 3100, she will put the nameplate on the wall and if your ems is below 1750 and destroy was the ending available, the doors to the Normandy won't open and will not have a memorial wall scene. Its believed the crew is dead.

Ok thanks again! So I can't save both the Geth and the Quarians until I have played ME2.
And I know the Control the Reapers is the paragon choice, but is it better than doing the destroy ending if you have 3100+ EMS?

Yes.
I always pick destroy. I don't care for control. Is it better? Only you can answer that question. The reapers are still around whereas in detroy the reapers are destroyed.
Yes.
I always pick destroy. I don't care for control. Is it better? Only you can answer that question. Shepard will die picking control
Ok then, I shall destroy them,
I'm sorry to be bombarding you with questions, But...
How do i start the Citadel DLC?
And I just got the option to remove my scars in Liara's cabin, I obviously haven't played ME1 or 2 and my face appears to be scar free, however when I check the Wiki it says that unless you have no scars then the option to remove them will be there, this implies that I have scars, should I choose to remove them (even though I can't see any) or get the health boost?
I highly recommend you stop playing and go start from me1 and take that character all the way through (femshep obviously).
I also recommend that option, you will understand and love ME even more ![]()

Its no problem asking questions.
The Citadel dlc can start any time after the Citadel coup. I would recommend doing it after the Sanctuary mission that way you get the most out of the dlc. You can do the gameplay part, but I would do the meet ups after the Sanctuary mission. For example. If you romance Samantha and do the meet ups before having done the Sanctuary mission, you will not get the hot tub scene with her and femshep.
It sounds like you're playing as a paragon, so if you continue down that path, you will not have any scars and I would choose the health bonus.

Ok Thank you, So I currently don't have the Citadel DLC but when I get it I start it by just going to the citadel after the sanctuary mission?
And because I'm a paragon I don't have scars?
From memory, if you buy the Citadel DLC and you've already done the Citadel Coup mission then you should just get a mail on your terminal saying that the Normandy is being called in to the Citadel for repairs. You can then head back in to trigger the mission.
Re the scars - yes. I'd forgotten this - recently did Omega and took all the renegade options, and ended out coming back to the Normandy with a bunch of scars.
