Yeah, I listened to that. While technically true, the chances of a stray projectile hitting anything even after millions of years is pretty slim I'd have thought, what with space being so empty. Also, if they're that concerned then blowing up a ship is likely to cause a lot more of a problem than one fist sized bullet.

The latter *probably* doesn't happen. Well not to my Shepard at least, 'cause it would be hard to find nuts on her. Unless of course in a plot twist Bioware reveals that female Shepards are actually trannies. And it's your fault anyway, you could've just jacked off to her picture :P

The earlier, well, yeah.

Oh, that reminds me of two things, any of you tried bringing Legion aboard the Migrant Fleet? 'Tis fun. And who the hell was the Observer?

For Liara's mission?

It's her assistant. The clue is that the Observer is female, which rules out all the merchants. Though I didn't spot that at first and thought it was The Krogan because he was the only one who wasn't mentioned in the data

The Normandy crash site is a testament to the fact that any shit that gets blown up in space comes crashing down into the nearest planet with most of its segments relatively intact. Better hope nothing explodes near a populated planet.

Those dual Turian/Alliance built stealth frigates sure are built tough.

I think I worked out that
Spoiler:
the Krogan was the assassin, who like all the others was mentioned in the clues and/or referred to as male.

In my cabin, Liara's picture is now lying face down. Take that, biotch!

I can't get back in the Migrant Fleet after the completion of Tali's mission.

I did wonder about the picture in your room. Is that of the person you porked in MA1? If so, it would seem I diddled Kaiden and not Liara. No wonder he was so pissed off with me, I didn't even remember it.

Okay, everyone is loyal (Except Zaeed and Miranda) I went through all the planets (didn't probe all of them as I purchased everything already anyway, but every system is at 100%), did all the planetary side missions I could find so that my journal is empty, and my ship is fully upgraded, as is everything else I could buy.
Is there anything else that I should do before I venture into the great beyond
Spoiler:
and save my whole team this time
?

Also,

All my fish died because Kelly got kidnapped :/

So not everyone is loyal then.
Spoiler:
2. That's exactly the number of team members you're losing. Go make them loyal.
About Kelly:
Spoiler:
You can only save her if you go through Omega-4 RIGHT AFTER the kidnapping occurs. And if you do, there's a stripping thing she does after the ending if you hook up with her earlier on.

After 44 hours (according to xfire), I've finally finished. That was a superb game. Apparently I played it for longer than I did Oblivion - and I played that through a few times.

I also agree with Mr. J about caring for the characters. I don't think I want to play it through as a bastard now, as I'd still want to be fluffy and cuddly with my crew.

I figured I'd post this here since Shada had complained about the stupid Dr. Pepper gear.

Step 6: ...
Step 7: Profit!
Step 8: Repeat for all three helmets.

Making squaddies loyal once you've done all the quests available is rather tough, since that's what I've been trying to do. Someone is still pouting - and yes, you do pout constantly sulk-face.

They should all prompt you to do their loyalty quest shortly after adding them to your crew...

Yes, I described earlier how I did Cheerleader's crappy quest and how right after it she argued with Jack - whose side I naturally took - she went back to non-loyal.

I got her loyalty skill unlock, but not the costume change or orange circle. I want her to die horribly anyway and can get the cookie in another playthrough.
