Time slowed down for me in that scene. I mean, I had her loyalty and had put in command of the fireteam (she has great leadership skills) and she got shot.  I was stunned, even after she just shrugged it off.

And then Bioware had the audacity of doing it to me again by having her under rubble after the human reaper fight. But she was fine again. Thanks to her genetic mods, I guess she's even more resilient than Shepard.


I'm actually thinking of purposely bringing an unloyal squadmate to the final boss so my Shepard and Miranda can run back just the two of them.

during the suicide mission there was a cutscene where you needed to hold the door before it closed. Miranda got shot in the stomach i was all WTF NOOOO!!!!! then she just stood back up and said Ready for action (or something like that...) I was still in shock, what a close one

I loved the way they messed with you on the suicide mission =). Definitely intense, at least on my first time through...now that some of the mechanics are better understood, it loses some of its tension.

I do think the game made a mistake when Miranda was hit by the pillar and Shepard rescued GRUNT by grabbing him just before he fell into the chasm...I thought, "Man, Shepard, that's going to rip your arm out of its socket..."

It might be affected by who you choose first on the squad select screen.

I think it is. Tali was the one who fell for me, and she was my Shepard's LI, so it was excellent drama.

What happens if you tell Miranda to talk to her sister, I was full renegade so I didn't get a chance to see.

She introduces herself to her sister and explains everything. You can ask her what they talked about later.

If you want your LI to fall whilst finishing off the Larva, make sure you pick them last for the fight. EG> You want to take Miranda and Garrus to the fight, at the squad screen, choose garrus first, then miranda.



I just finished my second playthrough and it happened, very dramatic, very awesome and it just feels right that you're saving the one you love.

yeah i find it a bit weird. both time i did it i had miranda with me. With mordin for the first time and garrus the second but the ''i'm gonna catch you before you fall'' part never occurs with miranda for me. I would have find it awesome in a blockbuster movie kinda way if I plunged to catch her since she's my LI and all...oh well i guess i'll have to play it a third time lol

In my case, Jack died. Had brought her along thinking I could keep her alive because she was not loyal. Jack was just dead with nothing on top of her.

Had Miranda with me, of course. Rescued Miranda from falling, and she was under the debris and survived. Thought I had lost her too. She then saved my Shepard by pulling him into the Normandy. It was great.

Did anyone bring Miranda on Mordin's loyalty mission? I like this convo:



Shepard: "It's crap like this that makes Cerberus seem like a good idea!"



Miranda: "... I'll be adding that to my report."

I laughed..It seems like she always had something to say in every mission. I could never not bring her along, anyway.

I also got terrified when she got shot in the suicide mission. I literally yelled "****! NO!!"



Then when she was fine...lol I was thinking to myself "Don't scare me like that girl" haha

I think the "engine room scene" was hot but not as intamate as I hoped the "love" scene to be. In fact I think Bioware could've saved a lot of criticism if they had like a two second shot of Miranda and Shepard taking a beat, embraced and looking at each other, before ripping their clothes off.



The closest they got to that was the very beginning when Shepard surprised her but otherwise... hey, just another thing to add to the improvements for ME3 board that you just know that the Mass Effect team has started working on. Pretty sure said board will be much smaller than the one they had for ME2.

Same here, I shouted "NO!" again when she almost fell off the platform.

During the suicide mission I accidently sent her with the other party, right after the biotic part I was more than relieved to see he made it ok.

I wanted to see the falling moment, but it never happens for me. Is there something you need to do?

It could have been a little "sweeter" I suppose. Even though I can think of numerous reasons why they did it in the engine room, I still would have preferred Shep's or Miranda's quarters, but oh well. Then again, I think the whole scene fit well. They're two very passionate people. They obviously love each other and they're about to head into a battle that will most likely end with them both dead. All of those things together created a sense of urgency and built-up passion that came to a point (pardon the pun) when they were finally truly alone. At least that's how I see it.

I got even more scared the part right after where you see her under that freakishly huge pillar that seemed to have collapsed on her. I was about to yell. Then she just got up lol Man i swear that mission was playing some serious mind games with me.

I brought her with me, and had the scene where she tells TIM to f'off. The only scene I got was when your two party members are lying on the ground with the pillar on them.

Yeah, I though I did something wrong I just knew she was did, I was like WTF! Hell, there wasn't one part on the suicide mission where I felt she was safe.

Yeah, same exact thing happened to me. I made her one of the squad leaders and then BAM!, shot.
I was like "Are you ****ing SERIOUS!". Then she shrugged it offImage IPB

I kept her with me the entire time. I figured the only way she was going to die was if someone went through me to get to her. That said, I still freaked out when she was under that pillar.
