You probably didn't interact with your crew enough, or people on the citadel. There is tons of story to be had there.

Probably not that much, no idea how you get to that point in the game and have 20+ hours on your save.

yeah, you get lots of side missions by walking around the citadel. what i don't like about this is that you don't have to actually talk to npc's to get many of these "missions" (often just fetch quests)- just walk past them, you'll overhear their conversation, and then a mission will open up.

Yeah, that's probably it. To be honest, I didn't feel like sitting through loading screens to go to different floors of the Normandy, but I guess I probably should.
I only have around like 8 hours or so.
You probably aren't as curious as most. After every mission, I talk to all of my crew (except for joker because that walk annoys me for some reason), look at what weapons I have, rejigger my armor. I often go back to the citadel to see whats available there.
With all the walking around and load times and conversations etc etc, you can easily spend a good 2 or 3 hours not doing anything story related. When I first started playing, at about 10 hours in, I had only done one story mission.
This stuff does take a lot of patience though.

Anyone promoted a character from multiplayer? Do you play that character or does it just pop up in some random cutscene?
You might want to mention that this is a super obscure, super minor spoiler.
Ending is predictable and a bit silly but nowhere near as bad as people claim.
Was expecting far worse going off the reaction of people in this thread.
If the Dragon Age 2 ending is a 0 (so much worse than this ending it's not even debatable), and your favorite game ending ever is a 10 It would be somewhere between a 4-6.

If it's super obscure then it's not a spoiler. It was just a picture to me until you mentioned that. Now I'm wondering how it's a spoiler. Your spoiler warning is a spoiler.
It's more of a joke/meme between players who have seen the whole game than a real spoiler anyway. Don't worry about it.

Hey guys, just wondering how I'm meant to get my iOS Datapad synced up with my 360 version?
I've logged into Origin on both, but I'm not having my GaW progress synced...

Don't worry it's just a joke.You won't get it unless you know what it's about.
People on the internet beg to differ.
All due respect but it was ambiguous bullshit and that's being kind. Back to ME3 spoilers thread /zooooom.

Engineer has it as well. That's half the classes. In fact, those are all the tech classes, and Overload is a tech skill.

Try multiplayer instead
Yeah, would make my life easier I guess.
That is exactly what I'm talking about. So dumb.
Since I'm in a Mass Effect thread
Just put a new podcast up. A lot of talk about Mass Effect 3 and the infamous list:

Brian Dunkleman updates as well.

The 1,000 and 5,000 kills are also easier this way.
500 post. Trust me the game after ME3 is much better.
It's called nerdrage singularity.
Dammmmmn, just met Miranda. She wants to know whats up, but I already told Liara that she's my main hole 
. What to do, what to do...
(Crazy that I'm actually having trouble here)
Edit: I think its gonna come down to tits/ass. I saw Liara's tits and ass in ME1, didn't get the same with Miranda in ME2.

Yeah, no. You can farm the 5k kills in like 3 hours at the start with an engineer.
I do 500 kills at a time then take a break, I have over 3k right now, should get it done soon.
Wait, what?

So my galactic readiness is at 90% currently. I intend to have it at 100% when I need to. But when do I need to have it at 100? Just for the final mission? Is there some sort of in-game warning once I get to that point of no return so I know to get 100 before hand? Advice would be helpful.

You'll get a prompt when it's the point of no return.
There is absolutely no reason or need to get it to 100 percent.
There is no reward (beyond an achievement, I think) for getting it to 100 percent.
The highest EMS you will possibly need is 5000. At that point you have unlocked all the possible endings. Note I didn't say BEST ending, as there is not a BEST ending.
Overload + infinite husks in the prologue?
Or Combat drone, I'm thinking.

I got into that one before, but didn't gave me trophy ;O
bleh, doing this in an insanity run maybe not be a good idea but i'll try..lol
I'm in the same boat. I started my Insanity run a bit earlier (after I first brought it up in the thread) to get the majority of the rest of the trophies I need. Suffice to say I'm not looking forward to taking on an Atlas.
Romance question:
Any suggestions what I may have missed and when?
I am at the point where Tali shows up (my romance in ME2), but she seems to think I am with Liara for whatever reason. I am playing the game very slowly and pay attention to everything, but I can not really remember a point where I reinforced with Liara... that's weird :-/

Shadow Broker?
i am pretty sure when you begin a romance, they ask you if that is what you want, so making a mistake is kinda hard
Yeah that's what I thought. damn me if I overheard something (how???).
Well I guess I will have to roll with it since it seems to be an early choice.

It's a pretty good critique of games journalism in the context of Mass Effect 3 reviews. Apologies if already posted.

I know the thread has answered this already, but I am a little scared of going through this thread entries for it with all of the spoilers in here. . Can anyone tell me the two primary missions at the point of no return. I want to make sure I have don the side missions before I engage them. I know the game splits into two parts and the final point of no return before the end. these are the two I am asking about.
