Figured imported savegames made a big difference. But multiplayer is well done IMO anyway. Very fun co-op.
I must agree that the differences between endings are trivial...although I understand what they were trying to do with it...as far as I can tell, depending on war assets...
- Destroy the Reapers, but Earth is destroyed, along with the rest of the cycle
- Destroy the Reapers, but London is shown as devastated, with no cheering from the ground forces
- Destroy the Reapers, with London and Earth left intact, marines cheering (Shepard survives, de facto 'best' ending?).
- Synergy (only one type)
- Control the Reapers, but London is shown as devastated, with no cheering.
- Control the Reapers, Earth is left intact, cheering.
I mean...if marines cheering over a victory or left not cheering over a phyrric one counts as 'distinct', well...
