"After analyzing geth advances in weaponry, the Alliance retrofitted
every weapon in service with a thermal clip system developed by the
geth." This upgrade had to have happened within the last two years.

On Jacob's loyalty mission there are people who've been stuck on a planet in isolation for more than 10 years. They all have thermal clips even though they crashed before they were created.

Also, according to Zaeed, his old rifle used thermal clips even though it predates their creation as well.

Yeah, I know it's a gameplay retcon. I just thought these inconsistencies were a little funny.

yeah... gotta love retcons



replayed ME1 the other day.... I kept spamming x for reload

They are out of place, but basically you just have to suspend reality in order to preserve gameplay. Not only were there clips, but mechs with Jacob's father, although they were a recent development as well. If there were no thermal clips to pick up in that area combat would've been quite challenging, or more likely would've required a complete overhaul for that specific mission. It would've been nice, but at the end of the day, probably not worth the resources it would've required.

actually he didnt really say anything about thermal clips in jesse.

he just states that the gun kept fireing well after the heatsink would have been overheated, then it jammed and would not fire again.

I don't see why we could not have both in ME1 when you got the best spectre weapons that did not need much cool downs with the best mods you actually felt like you were a badass that was backed by a military force.

I imagine that the "neverending ammo + non-stop firing" you could give yourself in ME1 (Spectre X + 2 Frictionless Materials X) wasn't actually feasible in the lore, even if it was possible in the game.

[Ducarmel]

Yeah but to get to that point you actually had to work for it and was only intended to play on the harder difficulties at a high level.



As for the lore I don't see how it wont make sense you are a spectre backed by the Citadel and the Alliance I expect to have the best military grade everything compared to some common thug on a random planet.
