I'm getting ready to do Priority:Earth, and I only have 5600 something Total Military Strength, how is the world did you get yours to above 7000?

I did every single Side Quest possible & Scanned every single Planet in the game. I missed two War Assets (Kelly, Since I didn't have dinner with her in ME2) and Matriarch Aethyta War Asset given to Liara.

I was at 7170 when I headed back to Earth.

--------------

You can unlock the Paramour achievement with Kelly.

I scanned everything and did every quests I had.

May have to do with not having a Mass Effect 2 save, and not being able to have both the Geth AND the Quarian fleet.

Characters like Miranda, Samara, Jacob, Kasumi, and Zaeed are War Assets. Not having both Geth & Qurians does hurt you allot. I got over 800 Points from the geth alone and another 500+ from the Quarians.

Most likely you didn't get the full Support of the Korgan Either.

I have to say, I'm not a fan of Female Shepard hair styles. Theirs only two I like, their another one that's ok. overall their not that great. Wish we could use the Default Female Shepard hair style.

Man, Bioware should really stick to single-player only. The multiplayer is basically a VERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY boring version of Horde Mode, with the worst hit detection I've ever seen. Not to mention my character glitches out of the maps on laggy connections. I know it's not a long trek to get all areas to 100%, but this is already a grind and I've only been doing it for a couple of hours. Only at 70%.

It wasn't BioWare choice this was all EA. Just mod the Save to give you the required War Assets(unless your on the PS3, Than your out of luck).

You already know I'm playing the PS3 version. And I wouldn't mod my save even if I was playing it on PC/360. I like to earn my trophies/achievements, not take a shortcut to earn them. Defeats the purpose of playing the game, IMO.

Modding will not auto unlock the achievements. It will just give you enough Assets to get the Perfect Endings, No need to play Multiplayer. Not everyone has XBL Gold or has their console connected to the internet. It's a cheap and slimy for EA to get you to play Multiplayer if you want the "Perfect Ending". Plus Modding will give us access to others things as well like hair styles, eye colors, changing certain Mass Effect 1/Mass Effect 2 Plots(So you don't have to replay two games to change one thing). It's just not for bypassing the multiplayer.

I got the 100 War Asset Bonus. The Import is a bit glitchy or you need to beat the game once.

Left: Is the resources I had that Gave me the 100 War Assets.
Right: Is the resources I had that only gave me the 25 War Assets.

Iridium: 384543 <-> 329060
Palladium: 258409 <-> 247496
Platinum: 204,099 <-> 202002
Element Zero: 100,686 <-> 101453

What's the difference between the perfect ending and the other ones?

Because mine sucked big time!
