Is it just me or does the Normandy have some serious design flaws.  For example it has no point defense system (the lasers the Codex mentions for repelling missles or whatever else)  something like that would have been nice against the Occuli.  Then there's the fact that even with all your ship upgrades it barely makes out in one piece.  I mean what kind of ship has billions of credits poured into it and only has a single gun that can't be rotated   I suppose part of it is that it's a frigate and that it was meant to operate in a group but since Cerberus knew we would operate independently you would think they would give us something that would give us an edge.

As long as Joker is the pilot Normandy will never suck.

With Joker and EDI combined, the Normandy is too badass to ever suck.

Uh. The collector technology is like...lightyears beyond anything anybody else was currently capable. That's why the SR2 barely could compete.

I want Shepard's command ship in ME3 to be the Millenium Falcon.



It's the ship that completed the Kessel Run in under twelve parsecs, you know.

The Normandy goes head to head with a ship a hundred times its size and wins.  It gets beat up, but it wins.  What more do you want?

This. Also, The Normandy Reborn has to be the best track on the ME2 OST.

The Normandy destroyed the Collector ship in a stand up fight.  X-Wings destroyed the Death Star by exploiting a "win button" weakness.  They are two entirely different situations.

The Normandy took out a Reaper and went toe to toe with a Collector vessel and only some minor hits



Normandy is god of ME universe.....better than the Destiny Acension

If the Normandy had mad offensive \\ defensive ship borne weapons systems, there would no need to disembark and go head to head against the bad guys.



You could just dust off and nuke the site from orbit.



And ME2 would be just another, ah, shooter...

To be fair, it did have a little help.
Like the entire Fifth Fleet, plus Shepard killing Sovereign's avatar.

The Normandy does use the GARDIAN system. When the Oculus first appear, Joker shoots a few of them down. Also, you're going against reaper-tech.

The Normandy is a recon vessel, not a fighter.



The fact that it can go toe to toe with a collector ship, even for a minute, is amazing.

All ships are eqipped with GARDIAN lasers. Of course the Normandy has them. They are for missile defense, and since no one uses missles, they aren't used very often.

Also, the Normandy does not have "a single gun that can't be rotated". If you don't upgrade, you use disrupter torpedoes, and if you do upgrade you have the dual firing Thanix Cannon.

Regardless, the Normandy is frigate, not a Dreadnaught. And it stands up to the most powerful ships in the galaxy. What is the problem?

Okay, I'll bite. Why does the Normandy 2 suck?

Are we even talking about the same ship? Were we playing the same game? Because I saw (oh, ninja'd) GARDIAN-type lasers taking out most of the Occuli, and the fact that only one got through is a testament to EDI's mad targeting skillz and Joker's amazing piloting. Try that with a dreadnought. No other ship in the galaxy would have made it out in one piece, and the Normandy 2 not only won the battle but flew away with a smile. That fat old Destiny Ascension would have been ripped to shreds.

Cerberus did give the Normandy 2 an edge, or at least they tried to. They gave it what should have been the best commander in the galaxy .... your mileage may vary.

I'm sorry, did you think I was being serious? I meant that more as making fun of the guy thinking the Normandy didn't do good enough.

The amount of debris around the ship during the occuli attack might have rendered GARDIAN defenses nearly useless.
