So no matter what I do, I'm forced to progress. I can't access the map ("Change of plans Commander, the Illusive Man would like to speak to you etc. etc.") and have absolutely no choice but to take the Collector Ship mission before I've obtained all squad mates. I'm still missing at least two, and I've only done three of the available loyalty missions. Yet apparently, people will die if I continue to build my team after the Collector mission. I've even started from earlier save files and that didn't help. Is there no way to avoid this? smithicide;
...also i chose to save the workers in zaeed's loyalty mission instead of going after his nemesis, have i lost his loyalty forever awdood;
There is no way to avoid it tec.
and yes you have lost Zaeed's loyalty forever
lmao tec
..........................................are you kidding me awdood;
tec, it's a video game, just play it n_n
just let the useless npcs on your ship die, who cares about them
having all squad mates is more important
and besides, it's not until you are told "we're ready to go to the omega 4 relay" that you have a time limit. i don't think that's IMMEDIATELY after the collector ship mission, is it?

It's right after the Joker part of the game I think.
you know
when the collectors come aboard the normandy
right, which doesn't happen RIGHT after the collector ship
tec would still have time to at least get all his squadmates, if nothing else, before his npcs die
but i love them all cry;

[spoiler]i don't even have zaeed's loyalty and i lost miranda's during her dispute with jack, LOLOMG AWESOME[/spoiler]
if you play the game again now, post-game, you might have enough (or will be able to find enough) paragon to get miranda's back
just an fyi
miranda's back isn't all that great

I lost Jack's loyalty and she survived.

i sided with jack because i thought miranda was being unreasonable baddood;

i sided with miranda simply because i was trying to bang her
i wouldn't touch jack's "vagina" with a 10-foot pole and although tali is sorta cute personality-wise and stuff i didn't really want to tap that. at least not on the first playthrough, maybe next time.

are you ugly;ing the fact that i know or the fact that it's important to know girl;
not knowing adds more depth to the game, ambiguity of right and wrong is the whole point of the harder decisions in the game

it'd be p. stupid to say the least
also the illusive man's hair is cool cry;
also could i have encountered a glitch of some sort
my paragon bar was (and still is) completely full during miranda/jack's stupidity and i couldn't resolve it
i had no trouble resolving tali/legion's dispute
but i still can't resolve jack and miranda's befuddlement
the bar appearing full isn't actually necessarily "full" paragon
there is some arbitrary system of paragon points, but the game doesn't really tell you how many points you have. you can probably find a few more here and there if you look, and that'll probably get you enough.

lol believe me i tried, the major reason i didn't beat it sooner is because i went searching for every paragon point i could have possibly missed
[spoiler]well, that and fear of losing teammates on the final mission sillydood;[/spoiler]
It still wasn't enough. befuddlement
weird. i managed to find enough post-game to appease Jack. befuddlement
