Rofl. This is why you need to come to the thread more often Nadia.


I try, but sometimes they are so embroiled in stories and fan fics here that I don't want to interrupt.

I'm like the comic intermission while you're waiting for the real show...  :lol:

@gutty: Actually we have ignored it all the times before. Last night was the last time we were going to put with it, so me and my dad chased them last night but came up empty handed. The cops came up empty handed. Now we are gonna fight back. My dad and I bought a deer camera today, we are gonna install it in one of our trees later. Let's just say we have a good idea of who is doing it now, by tracing all our leads and from what my dad and I saw last night. Now we just gotta catch them in the act and restrain them and call in the cops.

Heh, then just post some of your infamous pics or make up some new ones when it seems appropriate.
EDIT: Night, I'll be sure to do so.

Pulling some stuff from pages gone by...

Leaving aside that it makes very little sense for Miranda to be a biotic at all, do we know what kind of implants she uses? I'm assuming she was retrofitted with an L5 at some point just before the game, but those seem to have just come out in 2185. She's a year older than Alenko, so it's possible she was an L2.

Its quite possible she was originally an L2 but was later upgraded. I doubt Miranda's father would be happy with the medical problems associated with L2 implants. I figure that when Miranda ran away she was quite possibly a L3-R.

Edit: Ugh more reading reveals that L3s came out in 2170. Assuming Miranda ran away at 16, theres a four year gap between her running away, and the L3s being available. So unless she got an experimental L3 the rest of this doesn't really add up. Then again the timeline is already completely rubbish....

Mass Effect Wiki - L3-R
L3-R. Short for 'L3-retrofit', this is an L1 or L2 who has undergone extremely dangerous brain surgery to replace their implant with a newer model.

This would also provide a possible explanation as to why she was the first child to be kept. Other possible candidates likely didn't survive the surgery.

Its likely that L3 was designed to be easier to upgrade and thus through Cerberus Miranda would've gotten the L4 implant when they became available, and eventually a L5n.

Miranda appears to be in her early-to-mid twenties, but is actually thirty-five. So, how old would she have appeared in her twenties? Same, or would she have been mistaken for a teen?

Same. I think Miranda would've grown at the normal rate for humans with the only difference being that she would look 20-something for 20-25 years. Growing up and aging are different things.

@Gutty - that's assuming she uses an implant in the first place. She was "created" - so we don't know what kind of medical research went into her biotic prowess. Maybe she doesn't need an implant? Etc. I don't recall her ever mentioning anything about an implant at all, in the first place.



Just theory.



Bed time.

Did you guys see gutty's conversation wheel that he posted a while back? I thought it was pretty cool, myself. Not to mention extremely useful if he intends on finishing it..

http://gutty47.110mb.com/dialogue.php

I do intend to finish it.... just at the moment I'm lacking motivation to push through the game to get the appropriate saves. Actually I might push through to the second dialogue sequence after I post this.

Future ideas for implementation:
* Track romance flags and adjust dialogue appropriately
* Track loyalty mission + who kills Niket
* I'd love to also get all her dialogue from the start of the game, her comments after Jacob's loyalty mission as well as the entire suicide mission run (oh so many variables... someone shoot me now).

Pie in the sky ideas:
* Record the dialogue and upload it to youtube and then embed the videos into the dialogue tree. Unlikely to happen until the tree is complete... if at all.

I've probably pushed peoples hopes too far but I'd rather lay out the plans to get feedback... this little project of mine will take quite a while and the less rekerjiggering of the code I have to do later on, the better.

An interesting theory though I doubt Miranda's father would just leave her biotic powers au naturale. Jack has the most powerful human biotic abilities because of her brain degeneration but even she has an implant (and gets it upgraded during ME2).

not sure as havent looked but i figure some of that is on youtube i seen some of her love talks atleast on youtube if didnt want to go through them all doest really help for all the dialogue choice but cold help some

as for the suicide mission i currently and going through all that for the story im in the middle of writing could help you with that if ever wanted to do that

the talk after Jacobs mission isnt much would be simple

its a nice idea youve laid out for yourself know it could be hard to go through it all best of luck with how ever much you plan

@ gutty47 : I have many saves, maybe I can help you. I can pick up dialogues in many Miranda scenes.

I wonder if Miranda can dabce, like what you'd see at a black tie benefit.

Definitely. I can see her doing that rather than any other style.

And no, I can't see her doing that crump dance everyone else here likes so much. I don't want that in ME3.

Okay, there goes my plans for having Lt. Shepard hitting on her.


Haha. Oh, you were going have had them met before the events of ME2? That would be new and interesting. If I'm correct this is for your fanfic, right?


Right. They're in a bar on Elysium in 2176. I was going to have him attempting to pick her up, but now he'll be giving her grief about underage drinking. Then the batarians show up, she let's lose with her biotics and suffers a migraine, and he realizes she's an L2 and therefore not a teen.

Underage drinking? What kind of over-restrictive law do you envision there?

Whoa. It's really dead in here. I wish I had something to discuss, but sadly, I don't.



In somewhat related news, I just finished up the first chapter of the new fic and I'm on a really solid roll with the next one. If Rath approves of it, you might have something new to read by the morning.

more fan fic always a good thing and you have made a nice set of fics to read so far so im sure people would be gald to hear it

im stuck with mine as having to use game dialogue gets hard after awhile, more so when you have to put in the game and write it down as it plays yet trying to keep in intresting and at some parts making sure it doesnt sound like something any player can just boot up and play. though on the plus side if i can get past the next part ill be fine and it will flow easily

Yeah. I imagine that would get frustrating. I think most of the fics taking that route have been pretty well-done though. I commend you for the effort you're putting into it. Writing alone can be a daunting enough task without adding all of that into it. I'm sure the end result will be more than worth it though.

Lol. No one is going to flame you for that, Ieldra. Everyone is entitled to their opinions.

I think it would an amusing easter egg sort of thing. Looking at Legion's personality, I can't see him doing the Robot seriously either, but it was a funny little bit that I appreciated in ME2. That's why I suggested Miranda's crump dance as something you would almost deliberately have to be looking for to see. That way it wouldn't really affect how people viewed her character. It would just be a bit of silliness, really.

And I agree, the crump dance can, and will happen. You just need to have a little faith! Who really thought Blasto would make the game? Hehe.
