I am almost done with the game. I have only two main quests left and have turned all of the side quests in. Is there a way to directly change the Effective Military Strength with this?

i know im only a very short way in, but im kinda pissed about this. i HONESTLY expected me2 to be the build-up, create your crew - the whole preperation for me3... but i feel like im just starting from scratch here, and its kinda bumming me out. i kinda wanted to slip right back into my ship with its crew intact, and go kick some ass, like i was EXPECTING at the end of me2...
oh well. like i said, im still a very short way in, so maybe what im expecting will happen... i guess the point is, it kinda feels like it shouldnt have to happen after a while... me2 is feeling mighty redundant to me, right now...

Fuck, I already completed every side quest. Therefore this method is useless for me.
I'm still waiting in the Normandy before hitting the last mission. Let's hope for teh best.

Is the "best" ending worth all this effort? Editing files and shit? No spoilers please.

I dont know, you have to cheat/hack to get the best war effort for your best ending, i think its not about the best ending but more about the one you deserve, you can have 100% full with all explo etc etc, but instead, you just hack it to make it best, shame. And yelling "fuck you Bioware", please.... Its like a 12yo congress, everybody know they screwed some stuff on this game, and you pirate it anyway, so please cut the spam.

There's no real point in keeping anyone but 2 squad members alive from ME2.
The rest just get a bit of flavour text here and there..

Disregarding the insulting fucking Galactic Readiness slap in the face, my thoughts on the game were as follows (no spoilers).
Cons
-Vastly overpowered if starting at level 30 due to importing a character. It didn't get tough till the very end. Combat still relies on exploiting the sticky-cover mechanic for invulnerability.
-The "new" squad members were flat and uninteresting to say the least.
-The DLC squad member was absolutely THE most important in terms of filling in crucial pieces of back-story. No way should he have been cut out and charged for.
-Previous squad members (from ME2) did not have enough involvement/interaction. Did I mention I hate the new ones?
-Most weapons are fillers, with the single best out of every category being readily apparent.
-Set armor once again beats out mixing and matching pieces in terms of stat bonuses.
Pros
-Enemies use a bit more advance tactics this time with nade spamming and smoke cover. Sticky cover will still ensure nigh invulnerability as long as you don't allow yourself to get flanked though.
-Some awesome moments if you're playing off a game you carried over from both ME1--->2--->3. You'll see characters you've forgotten about on several occasions and they'll impact your side quests in meaningful ways.
-Expanded skill tree (in comparison to ME2)
-Removal of busy work (ME2) mini-games. Lets face it, planet scanning, hacking, and bypassing were virtually un-failable anyways. They were put in there as filler and nothing else. The new pac-man esque resource hunting doesn't take as much time, and at least employs a modicum of strategy. I'd still rather have exploration as in the original though.
-Well developed faction side missions.
-Epic story (again disregarding the ending fiasco). It manages to give you a broader scope of what you've been fighting for all these years, with a lot more lore insight into the main races.
Overall rating:
ME1>ME3>ME2.
I still can't believe they pulled that point system shit with the endings. That's like a fucking kick in the balls and a slap in the face while you're down. Fuck that's going to leave a bad taste in my mouth for years to come. Someone please sort it so I can do a PROPER second play through. 
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

so, if you can't have 4k or 5k as war asset, you will loose against Reapers or what ? I don't give a shit about Shepard staying alive or not, I just want to see Reapers down. If not, all what you have done during 40h is just SHIT.

well that sucks, and totally pisses me off. i always considered me2 the 'prepare for me3' game... but it seems it really was pretty redundant
sounds to me that bioware just got lazy and kinda wrote themselves into a corner, so decided to scrap most of me2, and make me3 selfcontained apart from a bit of dialogue and a few different outcomes here and there
most disappointing if this is the case. was really hoping me3 would basically feel like continuing right on from the end of me2. pah.
well lets see how it goes i guess. |

They are not, you can do full exploration, to have maxed war effort.

Yes, but without multiplayer, your War Readiness is capped at 50%, which halves your military strength. Hence Total Military Strength - 50% = Effective Military Strength

Edit: Also, got to love the misinformation out there... The ME3 Wikia says it's possible to get the perfect ending without playing multi, but doesn't reference how to do it.

THERE IS NO WAY TO GAIN 4 OR 5K OF EFFECTIVE MILITARY STRENGHT WITH 50% READINESS.
I did everything and wasnt even 3500 ems. so 4 and 5k endigs are not possible without multiplayer

oh jeez. ok i couldnt help myself, i checked what squad members were in me3. NO ONE I CARE ABOUT. theyre all gone. i mean yeah ok, garrus is back, hes always awesome... but building my team in me2 was utterly irrelevant. jacks gone, morinths gone, no miranda (yes, i said that, fuck you), no legion, no mordin?
most depressing. why couldnt me3 have been a direct continuation of me2

Your READINESS is capped because you have pirated version +- so thats why, also yor war map is offline, guess why, for ones that actually have access to MP its a bit good to have optional help and chained events in mp/sp.
