Mass Effect 3 readiness rating is a complete joke

Thanks. I'll go ahead and mark my post as the solution then. (Edit: I acknowledge the sarcasm. Unmarked my post as solution.)

That said, the issue is that you're not being enough of a completionist to get the best possible ending. You need a walkthrough, not a fix.

Actually I did everything that I possibly could, quest and scans etc. given that I was unable to import my character. Certain choices that would have been available (ie satisfying both parties instead of saving one or the other) were not at my disposal so I could not improve my war assets beyond this point. I also apologize that I did not research ahead of time that I was going to NEED DLC to properly finish the game. It's ridiculous that it came to that and that DLC was only made available after the massive backlash from fans when the game was originally released. Thanks for being such a chimpanzee fredvdp.

The extended cut was made in such a way that a perfect ending should be possible in a game without import.

There's not much else I can say about this. This forum is not official support. The easiest way to increase your military strength is to modify your save file, which is the best advice you can get from a fellow player. If you are unhappy with the game mechanics and/or EA's business practice, I suggest sending feedback to them, either by contacting official customer support, or tweeting your concerns to @masseffect or @bioware.

You don't like the fact that EA integrated MP with the vanilla game's possible outcomes. We get that.

You are under no obligation to install the EC, and under no obligation to participate in MP.

I have all but one of the possible achievements for ME3. (Guess which one...) That doesn't mean it isn't a great game or that I don't enjoy playing (and re-playing) it. It means that there are certain aspects of what EA decided to present, as options, that don't appeal to me. So I don't avail myself of them.

That's the beauty of "options", isn't it? 😕mileywink:
