Shepard Problems
My Shepard cannot drive.
No, look, I know it's a common problem, but I break driving in new and unusual ways. My Shepard is a mad scientist behind the wheel. It was bad enough with the Mako; I used to do horrible cartwheel things. Backflips. Somersaults. But I just managed to do something... awful with the much-easier-to-drive Hammerhead.
Midnight Voyager: Oh god
Midnight Voyager: my shepard
Midnight Voyager: is a comically bad driver
Midnight Voyager: *drives the Hammerhead like a fucking madwoman*
Midnight Voyager: I just...
Midnight Voyager: I did... not do this lava puzzle right at all
Midnight Voyager: I basically just crabwalked in the Hammerhead along the side of an almost-cliff
Midnight Voyager: ...Sure, it worked, but OH MY GOD, the physics were freaking the fuck out
Midnight Voyager: The game was all but screaming at me "OH MY GOD WHY ARE YOU EVEN DOING THIS TO ME"
Midnight Voyager: I was almost sideways, clinging on that mountain-face
Midnight Voyager: The physics were like "GAH FUCK WE ARE NOT PROGRAMMED TO HANDLE THIS"
Midnight Voyager: Fastest way to destroy the Reapers: Let Shepard drive one.
Polaron: Uh
Polaron: You can just JUMP
Polaron: You know that, right?
Midnight Voyager: Yes, but there was nothing to jump on
Midnight Voyager: I am... positive that I did this thing entirely wrong and managed to jump on something that I should not be able to jump on and ended up on an 80 degree angle
Midnight Voyager: I was constantly jumping and boosting to keep on it, but I was too far downriver from where I was supposed to be and the only lava rock in sight was down where I was
Polaron: There are stones in the lava you can jump on
Midnight Voyager: NOT THERE
Midnight Voyager: That's the entire problem
Polaron: o_o
Polaron: Where were you?
Midnight Voyager: That river had no stones anywhere that I could use them to get where I needed to go
Midnight Voyager: There was one stationary one downstream
Midnight Voyager: Vulcan Station, right before the end. Trying to get to the very last part
Midnight Voyager: I know I went wrong when I sidetracked to take out some turrets
Midnight Voyager: I must have turned the wrong way when I did that, but I have no idea how I ended up where I did
Midnight Voyager: And how I got to the end anyway
Midnight Voyager: garrus, tali, you should know better than to ride with me
ETA:
Midnight Voyager: Wow, I didn't think it was possible to flip the Hammerhead...
Polaron: . . .How..
Midnight Voyager: ...to be honest, I'm not sure. I think it was the physics giving up on what I was doing and just freaking the fuck out.
Midnight Voyager: I was upside down for a good five seconds before I seemingly teleported into an upright position.
