On a low-gravity world or moon, how does the Mako descend to the surface so quickly? Take Luna for example -- yes the beautiful moon that orbits our world -- the Mako should be able to bounce higher and land slowly; what force is pushing it back down?

That force is called 'don't think about it so hard, the game came out in 2007', I think.

 

They recycled the animation/physics or whatever, 'cause they didn't think that someone was gonna ask this question like, eight years later and ****.

 

Or it could be that the Mako defies the laws of physics or something, because it's the best. Ever. Check the avatar, son.

 

God, I'm glad it's coming back in the new ME.

Probably also map(-creation and testing) limitations.

If the diverse planets really had different gravities, the Mako couldn't climb up a small hill on one world, while a similar hill could send you flying beyond map borders on the next.

Shep does specifically have mag-boots. Maybe the Mako has something similar... for the ground.

 

Or... space magic.

Simple, did you not watch Armageddon? Stability thrusters on the roof of course.

I've another question...why the Moon and the Sun are called "Luna" and "Sol" in-game, as in spanish? Always wondered that :D

It's actually Latin; the names for the respective gods.

Calling it Luna and Sol is used pretty regularly in Scifi to differentiate the local sun and moon from generic other stellar objects.

Yeah plus I think our sun in Star Trek was named Sol as wel so that's pretty much my theory on it too.
