User blog comment:DeldiRe/Are ME: Retribition and ME: Infiltrator concomittent ?/@comment-4953843-20130707101936


 * read retribution
 * never bothered past the part where turians start shooting in ME:I due to gamebreaking incompatibilities with own tablet

that said, we'll still need more information to reliably date ME:I.

i thought for a few moments the two events could be related at some level due to that all-turian strike team when i first read retribution months ago, though that's about the only thing known to connect them. there's still the posibility that all-turian strike force at the barn could've been a completely separate and independent op by the hierarchy altogether: they do have their own intelligence net, could've heard about the barn in any number of ways and could've assaulted it anytime before/during ME3 (or suddenly turians simply to get ME:I's plot moving at the meta level). it's headcanon as far as i'm concerned unless more evidence can be provided.

if the turian goons at ME:I can be heard alluding to intel provided by orinia, that's a very strong case for dating ME:I as concurrent to retri. in the few moments i've tried running and gunning at invisible enemies with floating weapons before giving up on ME:I i found nothing of the sort.
