How can you tell if any of the final romance scenes ended in sex?  :happy:   They all crawl over each other, fully-clothed.  You can just see the Bioware writers cutting holes out of bedsheets and handing them out to their characters.

Yes, see, Female Shepard tells Thane to be alive with her, so then they spend a couple hours doing extreme sports down the corridors. Wicked skateboard jumps. Bungee in the cargo hold. Gets the adrenaline going.

I just hope the squad ai is tweaked next game.  Pointing them to cover only to have them crouch next to it and get mowed down  is irritating.  Along with going rambo when they're in critical condition instead of keeping their damn head down (I could see Grunt disregarding that from time to time).  Squad ai doing stupid things sometimes makes me wish a buddy could take control over them

Actually now that I think about it, you could switch between control of your squad during the early stages of ME1's production.  www.youtube.com/watch

Can't say it would work with how fast paced it is nowadays, but damn the galaxy map looked cool back then.

Well my logic is that she said she escaped when she was a kid, not a teenager, and the official teenager age is from 13-17. So the oldest she could have been when she escaped is 12.

Just throwing this out there, but as you know, 'kid' isn't a very strict label. For instance, I've come across any number of teenagers and young adults still referred to as such.

@Adriano: Your loss. No skin off my back, just as you said. Just thought that your enjoyment of the game being decreased by something like that is quite avoidable.

Yah, not something I intended on happening, but oh well...hehe.

Does Jack even know how old she is ? I mean we don´t really know when cerberus captured her and when she escaped. I can´t really imagine that she had something like birthday parties on Pragia. So if she was younger then 5 or 6 maybe she might really doesn´t know her own age.

Who knows.

It's pretty bad that meaningful conversations in the Tali fan thread are like comets. You have to be at the right place at the right time to see it. You sure as hell don't have to here.

They're no more rare, temporally anyway, than they are here. 

That's so untrue and it destroys any remnants of credibility you have left. I am done argueing with you. Your posts in this thread are borderline trolling seeing as how rediculous they are.

Warp Ammo is nice, but I think if Jack is going to get up all in your face, she really should practice using Barrier. Limitation of the game mechanics in ME2 perhaps, but really, if you're a Biotic, why wouldn't you know how to use Barrier?

Yes, that's a non sequitur.

Well technically she does have barrier. All biotic squadmates have barriers instead of kinetic shields if you look at them in the character stats menu. But I would love it if she had charge, that would be so badass. She is vangaurd after all. But she would need to get a huge barrier boost after charging or be able to intelligently take cover (which every squadmate needs).

@Mondo

I keep forgetting to mention how awesome your new avatar is .

If she had charge it'd be chaos.  You'd see her charging all over the place and knocking bodies left and right.  I am grateful she has shockwave though, comes in handy on my non-vanguard play throughs.  It's good fun bringing her on my Vanguard ones too, We cross shockwaves and completely obliterate everything and anything.

It's possible she doesn't.  She even says at pragria something along the lines of "Time gets funny when your in a cell your whole life".  Shepard's what about 32?  I can't see Jack being older then 28.

I think 28 is way too old. They mention the Ascension-program so i think her escape was round about 8-10 years ago. I think she´s 21 +/- 2 yearsmaybe but I´m not absolutely sure about so don´t be too hard to me if I´m wrong:P

This. I don't think she's sure herself. She might have a rough idea... girls tend to remember bodily changes better than guys because a lot more happens that's noticable than with fellas at those kinds of ages. Plus "kid" might well be a judgemental thing; now she knows the score, back then when she was a 'kid' she didn't. I think she probably has a clue, but the figure might be out by a couple of years. I think it was likely that she was somewhere around 10-15 when she escaped, just as a ballpark area, but that's just my take on it.

When you think about it on that scale, Cerberus really is responsible for the entire ruination of her life. Childhood, gone. Innocence, gone. Adulthood, gone. They might not have literally made her dump spacestations on Hanar worlds, but they put the metaphorical gun in her hands. They might not have been responsible for what was done to her after she escaped, but the metaphorical rape began well before she left Pragia. And prison? At least it didn't hurt there so much... cells must have been a breeze after what she grew up in.

Say what you like about jack's attitude, or her going up to Miranda's office to pick a fight (which she pretty much had to have done, really)... siding with Miranda because it was a rogue Cerberus cell that did it doesn't change the fact Cerberus started it. If they'd just stopped and patted Jack on the head and said it was sorry, would that have changed one ****ing thing? She still would have wound up a trainwreck waiting to happen.

You take Miranda's side because of the semantics of it all... you either have balls so big you need someone to help you get your pants on in the morning, or you're a douchebag. Sorry, I'll never see that argument any other way.

That's a good point I could not find anywhere on the wiki about her age.  I wonder if a developer ever lurks around on this thread and could shed a tiniest bit of light on the subject.

Ya I know, that's very likely. But I don't have much to base her age off of so I'm just goin with what I've got.

Wtf? Ashley used to be voiced by Courtney Taylor? That was so ****ing weird. Someone should post this in the Ashley fan thread. I wonder what they're reaction will be to finding out Ashley used to sound just like Jack. I think they switched the VA because Courtney Taylor has a very young sounding voice, especially when she yells, and they probably wanted a more adult and mature sounding voice for Ashley.

Would sex with Thane be a great idea before running off on one of the most dangerous and taxing covert military missions ever undertaken in history? Charging into battle acting like you just spent the last two hours licking toads...

Miranda: We need to find another way into the base.

Femme-Shep: (waving hand at holographic display) That... that's so ****ing rad...

heh thanks Jackal.  I'm guessing that the subject of Jack's age will be left to speculation.

Lol, well, as long as femshep doesn't ingest everything should be a-ok.

Or maybe they played a videogame for 2 hours or watched a movie. That **** always makes me feel alive

I admit 28 even at the oldest still seems high.  But the thing is with all of what shes been through all the things and experiences shes had sway my judgement. 

Some of the stuff she's seen and done is astounding, and to do it in such little amount of time is even more so. 

[achegal]

It´s really difficult to estimate how old she is on the one hand there r the hints with the Ascension-program which indicates that she´s not very old on the other hand she has this huge criminal record and been in a couple of prisons.

I don't think her stays in other prisons were very long. She most likely got shuffled around, because no one wanted to deal with her. Then she found herself on Purgatory, and they probably put her in cryo shortly there after.

[royceclemens]

There has to be a reason her age is not given. For all we know, the experiments on Pragia may have stunted her growth. For all we know, she could be forty-five.



If this is the case, though, a perpetually ageless killing machine with a penchant for violence and profanity made into a weapon by a shadowy organization that may or may not have government ties?



Holy crap... JACK'S WOLVERINE!

Hello Jack thread.

Never posted here, but I have started another ME2 playthrough recently romancing Jack, and I like her a lot.

Just wanted to show support for her, as she is probably my second favorite LI.

Thanks for the support, I'm glad you like her. I'm guna go out on a limb here and say your first favorite LI is Liara .

She was also in cryo for awhile.

[achegal]

Yeah true didn´t thought of that so who knows maybe she´s not even over the 20.
