Talk:Geth

Heritics Revision
Legion's revelations about the nature of the heretics and other geth I believe should be heavily reflected in this article. This article at present gives the inaccurate perception that all geth have the same ideology, utilize the same combat tactics, and technology. Legion's statements back this up.

No race, species, gender or demographic of any kind should be judged based on the actions of a single group within that demographic. This article does just that, and I believe that problem should be rectified.

 * Well then, don't just comment on it here, get to editing! If you want this article changed as described above, change it! SpartHawg948 02:33, February 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * I want to, but I just didn't feel right doing it. I've only made around one edit on this wikia. However reading that makes me feel it's safe to go ahead. I'll start working and post the revision tonight. --Phildog 16:23, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

Unable to operate outside the Veil
I might have missed this, but when does Legion state this? I assumed that they were chosen to do forays as they housed so many intelligences at once they could make independent decisions and be thought to better represent the geth. I never thought this was a physical limitation of the geth, I mean to say. :) --ABCoLD 17:10, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

My guess it is a range issue, most geth "platforms" wouldn't be able to stay in contact with the rest of the geth without lag, unless there's a lot of them, which organics would see as an invasion and attack them.


 * I was wondering this as well. Where is it in the game exactly? If anyone could tell me, I'd appreciate it. --Effectofthemassvariety 04:47, March 3, 2010 (UTC)

Naming Conventions
Though the species name 'geth' should still kept in lower case, after considering it, I think specific enemies like Geth Armatures should be given proper nouns, as these are titles of specific enemies. (Should also make it easier to write articles.) Shout out here if you disagree. I think I was the only one writing them in lower case anyway :p. Will fix. --Tullis 20:44, 18 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I neither agree or disagree with the convention, but I do believe that we need one. Let's stick to yours. Now we must also say "Asari Commando" rather than "asari commando", right? EliTe X HeRo 20:16, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Bipedal? Humanoid?
There are several full fledged geth intellegences encountered in the game that are neither bipedal nor humanoid. While it is true several of the geth could be described as such this describtion would be better suited for their individual pages as opposed to blinket statements made about the entire race. Tetracycloide 18:49, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * While I don't disagree, that paragraph was actually taken verbatim from the official Mass Effect site, from the Galactic Codex entry on the geth. --Tullis 19:20, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

I was thinkin'
Y'know in the trailer it showed a Geth wearing human armor,and then another image showed a geth holding a human sniper rifle,do ya think that maybe,whatever this new threat is,that it's abducting humans and transforming them into geth?I know i sound bathsit insane,but it was just a thought. M471/952G 16:59, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't think the geth was wearing that N7 armour. It was just standing behind it. --Tullis 18:00, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * That seems a bit weird,in the trailer:Maybe,in the screenshot:DEFINETLY WEARING N7,but then again,it's been ages since ive seen N7 armor,just kept using scorpin,mercenarary(Wrex's starting armor) and then colossus. M471/952G 18:12, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I also thought it looked like the geth was standing behind the armor, as opposed to wearing it. SpartHawg948 18:23, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I can't speak for any other ME2 media, but the first time I saw that teaser was on a pretty big screen and I'm fairly sure the geth was standing behind it. --Tullis 18:26, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Maybe they're taking hostages now?Kinda weird if it is,it coulda been a reference to gears of war 2,where the locust (Main enemies) start taking hostages after losing a leading figure (Geth:Saren Locust:RAAM) Mr.Wolf 19:08, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm thinking that the new geth squadmate is a geth experiment done by cerberus, they say quote "he's a specific character, you probably recognize him from the trailer...people will really connect with him". I reckon they say this as the geth sort of sound like R2D2. Mrspectre 01:15, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Geth Evolution
Does it actually say anywhere how the geth evolve? Do they simply build newer versions, upgrade to newer versions, or a combination of the two? Example: Will a trooper be upgraded to a destroyer, or will a trooper always be a trooper?

I've been looking over whatever I can find, but haven't found an answer. SjadoJai 19:47, 12 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Though I cannot backup my answer with in-game facts, my guess is, the geth build the platforms they have demand for. Upgrading a platform to a fully new type does not seem logical because there were designed to serve a specific pupose.

I think the term evolution describes the development of fully new platforms like the geth stalker. A new need occurred for the Heretics when they turned from defense against the quarians and the following evasion to offense and invasion lead by Souvereign/Nazara. And the geth answered the demand with a new design for their mobile platforms.--LegioN 16:33, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

geth ghosts and stalkers
i just noticed that i have never seen a thing called a geth hopper. all are either called geth stalkers o geth ghosts which are black instead of gray and seem to use a sniper like weapon instead of the laser. an example is the big fight with the armature outside the make on the laira's dig site planet. (i forgot the name). where did anyone get the name hopper?
 * They're referred to as hoppers in the Codex and in the old X06 footage: "hoppers" is a collective term for Stalkers, Sappers and Ghosts. --Tullis 01:49, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hopper seems to be the name the Alliance soldiers gave those platforms--LegioN 16:36, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

Collective Memory?
Where is it stated that the geth have a collective memory? When Tali's talking about them? --Tullis 15:10, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure, but I think when Shepard take Tali to to the ambassador to present the evidence. --silverstrike 15:16, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's not stated, or even demonstrated, I don't think. For all we know, the geth that Tali obtained the memory core from was present when Saren and Benezia had that conversation. SpartHawg948 21:31, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * The Geth do share a collective memory, so long as they are connected to the network. Legion explains this over his conversations and loyalty mission. Aboard the Heretic Station, you run into a database, which Legion pokes around in a little to see what they've been up to. And later he pulls a recording of the first time a quarian was worried when a geth asked if it had a soul from the collective network, as long as you let him access the FTL comms. Their memories are definitely shared. Greatak 05:15, January 31, 2010 (UTC)

Section for fleet
Should there be a section added, with images, describing the geth fleet of dropships and cruisers? Tophvision 14:21, October 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * No. We have no information whatsoever on a unified geth fleet or geth naval doctrine, and there is little to no evidence for the existence of geth cruisers other than what you have extrapolated from a video.


 * EDIT: *reads new section on Talk:Starships* All right, but there's no picture supporting this, and you're talking about a ship that may have been glimpsed briefly and which we know nothing about aside from appearance! I'm also disappointed that you took it upon yourself to put this all over the Storyline page without actual proof, and when, as I have said before, this image shows only geth dropships. Put a note in Trivia: Geth Dropships if you wish, but again: we have no information on geth fleet and naval doctrine, so a section here would be mostly speculative. --Tullis 14:24, October 8, 2009 (UTC)


 * I would venture to say that many of those ships may be geth cruisers, due to their more elongated nature. But you're right, I'll hold off until I can get a solid image for proof. Any help with that would be nice. Tophvision 14:36, October 8, 2009 (UTC)


 * I have to admit, I'm still not entirely clear on how a more elongated design denotes an entirely different class of ship. Those silhouettes are indistinguishable from geth dropships. Please put a note in Trivia: Geth Dropships if you wish to mention the possible existence of geth cruisers, and the evidence you have, then I'd really appreciate it if you'd leave this be, at least for now. It's not been a good week for us when it comes to speculation and problematic edits, and I really don't want to wrangle over this. --Tullis 14:46, October 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes. There's some information, that could be added there, that doesn't fit anywhere else; like the fleet strength of 5.000 to 10.000 ships, see Codex Far Rim > Dholen > Charoum --LegioN 13:31, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's probly just the heretics too (5% of total Geth)
 * That's probly just the heretics too (5% of total Geth)

No, there was no indication of that whatsoever. In fact, it seemed to me that this figure, taking into account were it was provided, was referring to the plain old non-heretic geth, especially given that this is one of the quarian worlds that was overrun by the geth. Also take into account that if they had 5,000 to 10,000 ships, they'd likely have used them, either to support Sovereign's attack on the Citadel, or to fight the Alliance after the events of the first game. Remember what Anderson says- the geth heretics were largely wiped out by the Alliance, with groups of them being picked off as they were discovered. The Alliance wouldn't have been able to do that if the heretics had 5,000 to 10,000 ships at their disposal, would they? Common sense says 'no'. SpartHawg948 04:59, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

Husks
Husk are not a subtype of geth, so unless anyone has any objections I will be removing them from the list of geth subtypes.
 * No objections here. Matt 2108 20:04, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's what I was thinking. But maybe leave a link to the husks. And it might be a spoiler, somewhat.
 * I don't see any relation between the geth and husks (apart from the geth helping by mounting humans on the Dragon's teeth) --silverstrike 20:14, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Until Horizon everyone in the game thinks husks are made by the geth? The final proof of the relation between the husks and the reapers is aboard the derelict reaper. What do I miss?--LegioN 20:37, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * True. But no one will miss the link to the husk and it won't be a spoiler by not being mentioned (after all, even while playing ME it is clear that the geth and the husk are of different technology and you can't call both of them 'geth'). --silverstrike 20:42, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Agreed.--LegioN 20:53, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

I guess we have something of a consensus then. That went well. Bastian964 01:24, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

There is still the matter of the small paragraph mentioning "psychological warfare" regarding husks. The article does not mention that Husks are Reaper technology, and I think that Husks do not belong in this article in the first place. I see that the article about Husks has a fair bit of these contradictions too. I'll take the liberty of removing the bit about Husks in this article, seeing as they were also removed from the Geth subtypes. LTK 70 22:06, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't remove something just based on your opinion. That should stay becuase it is lidgit because they do use them and it is phychologlical warfare. Something like that is only removed when a concensus has been reached. And you alone doesn't count. Lancer1289 22:07, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

Hive Mind
Doesn't Tali say specifically that the geth are not like a hive mind when you talk to her in Mass Effect? Matt 2108 20:12, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I guess it could be worded better. What is a better way to state this? They say it's not hive mind, but when I read about the Geth, half the time it sounds exactly like a hive mind mentality. I mean, they share all their processes and Legion states that when one Geth experiences something, it uploads it to the "SOMETHING" (I guess NOT hive mind, even though it is a mind that all Geth share) which makes all Geth believe that they shared that same experience. --Saren72 20:26, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just thinking out loud here, the geth share sensory data and all memory which basically makes it one single mind when they connect, right? There is no single geth, isn't that, what Legion tries to explain?--LegioN 20:52, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

See that's why I'm confused. That is basically the definition of hive mind. But they say it is not hive mind and then I remember things like when Legion plays back a recording of a geth asking a quarian "Do I have a soul?" which points to individual thinking and judgment. --Saren72 21:21, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Except Tali says in the first game that Geth do not share sensory data, which is precisely why they are not a "hive mind". Their collective subconscious allows them to free up processing when they are in proximity, so they get smarter when closer together. Legion indicates otherwise, that all view points are shared and a consensus is reached. This is either a Retcon, or the Geth have evolved significantly beyond what Tali said in the first game, into more of a hive mind. Except it isn't a true hive mind because each program truly is individual--note A House Divided, not only are the Geth divided into the true geth and the heretics, but Legion "himself" is divided, half the programs favor wiping out the heretics, half the programs favor reprogramming. Thus, even with all viewpoints shared, the programs are truly individuals with individual opinions.—ErzengelLichtes (Contribs) 21:33, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

The geth do not have a hive mindThe geth rule 18:37, February 25, 2010 (UTC)

The geth are not a hive mind nor do they share sensory data. Each geth has its own viewpoints but when they are connected through a computer system they share memories. When Legion was talking about a consesus reached he was refering to all the programs inside him reaching a consesus.Bastian964 18:35, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

Am I Playing the Right Game?
There is a lot in this article like the geth not living on quarian worlds and that they want to build one stucture to house all geth. Where does this info come from. I've done every dialogue path possible for Shepard and have never heard any of this.
 * There's a lot of information in the codex and in the codex of the planets in geth space, though citations would be nice, indeed.--LegioN 08:44, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

@First person: That information came from talking with Legion. Clearly you didn't talk with him enough to get that information or you simply don't remember.Bastian964 18:30, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

"Do these units have a soul?"
I was watching First Spaceship on Venus (Mystery Science Theater 3000) and I noticed that the little robot's voice sounds exactly like the geth that asks if it has a soul. Not necessarily something to mention in the article, but I thought it was interesting. Ninsegtari 14:40, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Trivia
As you can see goblins from the earlier game Too Human are nearly identical to Geth. Mictlantecuhtli 21:37, June 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * Except visual comparisons aren't enough to justify trivia. I don't know how many times I have said that now. While yes they do look similar, visual comparision area again not enough. Also Too Human was released after Mass Effect, so it is more likely the Too Human things are based off the geth, not the other way around. Mass Effect was released on November 20, 2007, while Too Human was released on August 19, 2008. So the drones are again more likely based off the geth, and that still isn't trivia. Lancer1289 21:42, June 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * I can see few changes will be allowed at this wiki. Wish you luck in the future. Mictlantecuhtli 21:52, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Not when they're wrong, no. PhoenixBlue 21:57, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * (eidt conflict) We allow changes, when they are relevant, and this one wasn't. You said that Too Human was developed BEFORE Mass Effect, which is false, and because of that, the drones are more likely based off of the geth and not the other way around. Unless the geth were completely removed from Mass Effect when I wasn't looking. Trivia is valid when i has some backup, but yours didn't and was false. Too Human was released after Mass Effect, so your entire argument was false, and therefore invalid trivia. Lancer1289 21:58, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

Emotionlessness of the geth.
Are the geth lacking emotion because they were originaly planned to be worker robots? Other AIs have (I think). for example: Sovereign when taking saren's husk squall's in "his" anger that the citadel is his. EDI likes Joker. the AI you can find on the presidium is quite violent, when it states that it will take you with it to death. Legion always talks about logical things. I still like that guy, but he is a bit strange without emotions.

Where the hell is the geth Cruiser?
As you can see here, Sovereign is acompanied by a lot of geth Cruisers. Why there is no article about those?

Here is another image which shows a geth Cruiser in close up. Those are not geth Dropships. SoulRipper 18:59, August 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * We don't know enough about them to make an article. Same for Alliance cruisers and turian frigates. We know these things exist, we have pictures of them, but that's the extent of our knowledge. -- Commdor (Talk) 19:15, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * We also had a long disccsion about this just a few weeks ago on the Talk:Geth Dropship page. We have no factual evidence for Geth Cruisers while we do for Dropships. All we have is speculation, guesswork, and a few pictures. If we had facutal evidence, then we can say differently, but unfortunatly we don't. Lancer1289 19:46, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh Dear God... not this again. Find canon proof demonstrating that those ships are geth cruisers. That would be an immediate prerequisite for the geth cruiser article. And no, just to stave this off, the model ship doesn't count. I won't go into full detail, but there's way too much wrong with saying 'well it looks like the model' for that to work. Zaeed's model ship looks like a turian cruiser, doesn't it? But it isn't. Then, as Commdor says, find some more info. The geth dropship has an article because it appears several times in both games, including at least twice as an adversary, and we get to see quite a bit of it and get to know its characteristics. Please though, I beg of you, let's not get into a big 'Those are geth cruisers!' "We need canon proof!" 'Those are geth cruisers!' "Still need canon proof!", etc, etc. argument. Two was more than enough, we don't need #3. SpartHawg948 20:22, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * You dont want to search a little by yourselves, hah? Anyway, here we go:
 * Mass Effect artbook. Image: geth ships. This image shows a geth gunship (top left), a geth transporter (top right) and a geth Cruiser (bottom). Is the top left ship the same with the one to the bottom? NO. The sizes of the ships are correct. The geth Cruiser is much more bigger than the transporter. And before you start saying that its a concept art and things like that, here comes the second image: ingame models. This image shows a geth transporter to the left and a geth Cruiser the right. I have highlighted the names of the models. Are those two ships the same? Similar, yes, identical, NO.


 * Both models can be found in "C:\Program Files\Mass Effect\BioGame\CookedPC\Packages\GameObjects\Vehicles" (normally). The files are "BIOG_VEH_GethTransport.upk" for the geth transporter and "BIOG_VEH_GethCruiser.upk" for the geth Cruiser. Anyone who wants to check those just go here, download UModel (Unreal Model Viewer), unrar or unzip the files and drag&drop the .upk files in the UModel program (dont run it, just drop the file over the icon of the program).


 * Also another image here. This image shows Sovereign with the geth Cruisers. The "2" is the ship number 20 (where the arrow points) scaled some times. Dont you see any similarities betwin 1 and 2? As you can see in the final cutscenes of Mass Effect, NONE of the geth ships has any of those "legs". Thats because those ships aint transporters.


 * Also check this video from Youtube. Its HD and evrything is pretty clear. Just concentrate on the geth ships and you'll see that those are not transportes. Also you can see that those ships are way larger than the Normandy.


 * Also I take my hat off to whoever did that analysis in the Geth Dropship talk page.
 * SoulRipper 22:17, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Why would I bother to search a little? I'm not trying to prove anything. So... let's see. Images from a non-canonical artbook, which demonstrates its status pretty clearly by displaying cut content in the image you provide. Hmmm... In-game files. Ok. Not sure what the revelation is here. I've freely admitted several times that there are geth cruisers, and that some were at the Citadel. In-game files, however, do not prove that the ships in the screenshots you provided are geth cruisers. They more than likely are, but there are some things that don't mesh as well. Next, no, can't really see jack in the Sovereign and geth ships image you provided. The blown-up image is way too distorted to see, for example, the bank of antennae that is one of the distinguishing features of the geth cruiser. Ultimately, though, this is all moot. You still have not answered the one question that needs to be answered before a geth cruiser article (which you were, as I recall, pushing for) can be created. What would go in the article? We have next to no info on them, as we do with most large warships, such as Alliance cruisers, turian cruisers, and turian frigates. SpartHawg948 22:26, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Additionally, not sure why you're tipping a hat. The user who did that "analysis" made some fairly serious blunders that in my mind, and ultimately his, kind of jeopardizes the entire point of his statement. Kind of hard to rely on his visual assessments when he labels ships that display significant differences from geth dropships as 'geth dropships', and then uses these misidentified ships to point out why other vessels then cannot be geth dropships. SpartHawg948 22:29, August 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * "We have no factual evidence for Geth Cruisers while we do for Dropships. All we have is speculation, guesswork, and a few pictures". Lancer says that the existance of geth cruisers its a speculation. Common, WTF!!!


 * Non-canonical artbook? What do you mean? I created it? Its a scan from the original.


 * What things dont mesh? Take every screenshot that shows a geth cruiser, download the UModel and compare it yourself. Also go check in Shepards room and tell me, is that a geth dropship or not? In Harots emporium, the discription of the model ship says, geth cruiser.


 * Both the cruiser and the dropship have the same antena. The distinguishing features of the geth cruiser its that is more than twice the size of a dropship, it has not the legs/claws and it is more of a straight design. The droship is more curved.


 * Ok, an article cant be made but in the whole geth article there is nothing about geth cruisers. SoulRipper 23:03, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Geth cruisers are mentioned in the trivia section of Geth Dropship. Maybe something similar can be added here. -- Commdor (Talk) 23:09, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict) Common? I think you mean Come on. Next, did I say you created the art book? No. I mean it isn't canon. It's concept art, much of which did not make it into the game. Concept art is not canon. I can't think of a simpler way to explain it. Concept art is as canon a source as are TV commercials.


 * And didn't I already make clear the problem with comparing the model to the ships in the cutscene? Pretty sure I did. If we were to apply that logic, then clearly the model ship Zaeed has is a turian cruiser. After all, the model matches the turian cruisers seen in the cutscenes. Is it a turian cruiser? Nope. It's a frigate. Models are notoriously unreliable, as is made clear in the discussion on the geth dropship page.


 * As for a mention in the geth article: why? Does the Alliance article (or the human article) mention that humans employ cruisers, frigates, dreadnoughts, and carriers? No. Does the turian article mention turian frigates and cruisers? No. Does the asari article mention asari cruisers and dreadnoughts? No. Why make the geth a special exception? Now, if we knew any sort of detail about them, maybe it could get a mention, as the batarian article does mention that the batarian navy does (or did) employ Hensa-class cruisers, as that's an actual bit of info that distinguishes it. I don't see the need to make the geth article the one and only article noting that 'the geth are known to employ cruisers' or something like that. Addendum- this includes the trivia section for the aforementioned reasons. SpartHawg948 23:16, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would also disagree with the mention of a trivia section. This article should be no excpetion. As to speculating as to the cruiser's existance, I have reread the argument and I have yet to find where I said that geth cruisers are speuclation. I mention speculaiton on the dementions that the user trying to use, but I didn't say that cruisers are speculation. So wehre do I say that iI'd like to know, since words are apparently being put into my mouth. They have never been called cruisers in universe and I asked for proof that they have. Since they haven't we have no proof that they are cruisers, I asked for proof that they were called cruisers, and by not using the model name. Lancer1289 23:29, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

So we're arguing if these particular geth ships are classified as cruisers or not? That clears things up, I thought we were arguing about whether or not these ships existed at all and were different from dropships. I'll have to back Lancer and Spart on this, we have no direct evidence the ships are officially classified as cruisers in the ME universe. -- Commdor (Talk) 23:37, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's what my contention is. I conceded way back when ME2 released that geth cruisers exist, and that there were geth cruisers at the Battle of the Citadel. And I do think that there is a decent chance that the ships seen in the cutscenes are geth cruisers. I'm just not willing to say it's a fact, without canon proof. Snippets from non-canon art books and blurry blown-up images are not canon proof, nor are comparisons relying on model ships. And, given that consistency is a big issue, I'd like to keep the geth article consistent with all the other races articles, and pointing out that 'the geth are known to employ cruisers' (or anything along those lines) is utterly inconsistent with the other race articles. SpartHawg948 23:45, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * And I agree to that. If we had canon proof the this would be a different story, but the fact of the matter is, we don't. We only have blurry images, pictures from a non-canon book, and a proven bias ship model description, non of which are valid enough evidence. We aren't arguing that they exist, we just can't classify them as cruisers until we have canonical evidence, and what we have doesn’t meet the mark for that by any stretch. Lancer1289 00:23, August 26, 2010 (UTC) as
 * The geth model ship that can be purchased in Harrots emporium is a Geth Cruiser and those geth ships in the battle of the citadel were geth cruisers as you can CLEARLY read here. See? Geth Cruiser typical of the kind involved in the Battle of the Citadel. SoulRipper 00:49, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh not this with the model descriptoins again. We have proven those descriptions to be inaccurate and misleading, see Sovereigns description, which I have already quoted on the Talk:Geth Dropship page. To quote Spart "MODELS DESCRIPTIONS ARE NOT INDISPUTABLE PROOF", and I would agree with that. They aren't proof as we have proven that they are bias and written from the point of the merchant, not to be taken as canonical proof. If you want to know why, Sovereign's description is inaccurate, and the model for the UT-47 Kodiak Drop Shuttle isn't even the correct ship. Again please see arguments on the Talk:Geth Dropship page for more. And to finish this, find some other source of proof and not the model descriptions which are proven to be inaccurate and bias.

 * (edit conflict) Yup. And there was quite a bit of the Battle of the Citadel we didn't see. Remember the bits involving C-Sec fighting the geth? No? Well that's odd. It happened, after all. It just wasn't shown. Remember all the damage caused by the attack to the various wards? It happened, but we didn't see it happen. Again, I think it likely that the ships in question are geth cruisers. But it can't be canonically stated. What are you driving at here? Because several comments have been made regarding your desire to see info about geth cruisers added to the article, and you have yet to respond to any of them. I'm beginning to get pretty confused about why this discussion is even still taking place. SpartHawg948 00:59, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed I keep trying and failing to understand why this argument keeps going, espiecally when both times the person arguing for the inclusing of it has yet to respond to the comments about why it can't be added. I am still waiting for responces on the other one, but I don't htink they will be coming. Lancer1289 01:02, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Geth Gunships in-game?
According to the article, Geth Gunships are not present in the game. However, after reviewing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtBbwtY6ROo video at 00:29-00:30 you can clearly distinguish 2 smaller ships, in a non-dropship like appearance right next to a Geth Dropship. This photo http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/File:Geth_Dropships_Sovereign.png also shows what appears to be a Geth Gunship underneath Sovereign.

No documentiation to support this, just the obvious differences in size, appearance(they have claws extended in space, unlike the Geth Dropship...which IMO reduces the whole "they aren't Geth cruisers cause the legs pull up into the ship and therefore look exactly the same as dropships" argument) the ships also have a silhouette of what appears to be a nose gun, which isn't present on any other geth ships known to us other than the Geth Gunship.


 * But, if you will note, they do appear to be much larger than Geth Gunships, at least from what we see of the gunships in the art book, which is the only confirmed image we have of one. SpartHawg948 00:41, October 9, 2010 (UTC)
