Now I'm curious - Is there a way to evade the guards? Can you, say... run & hide if you do it at the right time?
No. Ryder is always in the sight of the angara. Even if that was possible, they would eventually find Ryder, kill her/him and impound the tempest and possibly kill all onboard believing they came to invade their planet.
It would be. Imagine the angarians flying around in the tempest doing whatever while the Initiative thinks Ryder and crew are trying to find more outposts?

Ah, so you like the happy endings! There again a Ryder with Stealth might be able to disappear, with enough ryncol in the local water supply it might be possible that the Angarans would believe it was all a bad dream.

Ross Kennedy @kamsage Huh, so what does the client mainly handle in terms of MP? Server seems to handle a lot more data than i presumed.
Fernando Melo DiscoBabaloo Lots, but in this case, packs & rewards are ultimately determined by server so we can adjust without having to patch the client itself
Ross Kennedy @kamsage Imagine that's v handy for a complex & intensive live ops. Would love to see how you folks organise (jaw-dropping spreadsheets? : p)
Fernando Melo DiscoBabaloo Definitely lots of spreadsheets (and whiteboards)
Ian S. Frazier @tibermoon There's also a Lite-Brite™ where each peg is a captive human soul.

No. They work for bioware. Which means that everything they post about their work - even if it is on their personal twitter - affects their company. I don't knwo where you work, but where I work it is even simply forbidden to write ANYTHING AT ALL and on ANY SOCIAL MEDIUM AT ALL about proceedings of the company. And that's pretty logical. If some company employee writes on their facebook about how much he had to sweat today to fix some critical issue which could have a possible impcat on patient safety in a pharmaceutical company, can you even imagine how fast the press would react to this and how much negative publicity this would create for the company in question? Lives are at stake here!
This tweet is exactly the same thing. The SECOND he tweets about anything related to his company on his "personal" account, this becomes a statement of the company (bioware) he works for. And it is representative for the goings-on within the company itself.
People think that because they post stuff like this on their 'personal' account, that they are therefor acquitted of any negative effects this may have? No, that's not how this works. That's not how the world works, that's DEFINITELY not how the press works. They'll nail you to the cross, and have a good ol' time doing it.
If anything, this tweet tells me how unmanaged the people there in bioware are, how little rules there either are or how little leadership there is which enforces the rules.
THAT, my friend, is my problem. I have no qualms with bioware usign twitter as a PR medium, and therefore I'll happily keep following this thread. But a bit of professionality is not too much to ask, is it?
Disclaimer: I do not work for a pharmaceutical company, and if I were, there are definitely no issues there, like, ever.
Ok, you probably need to calm down a little. Firstly, game dev studios are not pharmaceutical companies. Secondly, you can have things in between your 2 extremes (saying everything and saying nothing). While I agree about being careful what you write about your work on your personal social media of choice, you also can't dictate that no one should write absolutely nothing, ever, under no circumstances, period. Also, what you said in your pharmaceutical companies example is completely parallel to this tweet. Sam just said she's working on something she's really into, a fact, she mentioned reality. She did not mention anything emotional or about her day to day work process like how hard it is or that she almost failed at something really important. The only thing that tweet makes people feel is curiosity for the future. And seriously, the press? Negative effects? What? Where are you coming from with this? What could they possibly have to say about a tweet that basically says "Yo, I'm working."??
Seriously, not everything has to be put under "DO" or "DON'T" with nothing in between. That's why we have nuances in basically every aspect of our lives. Hyperbole is not your undying friend.
I AM CALM!!

Honestly, I didn't mean it as a rage post. I meant it as an explanation to why messages like these examplify the corporate structure of a company like Bioware. I obviously know that a games company and a pharmaceutical company do not operate with the same stakes in mind... but that doesn't mean that company policy and worker ownership can't be the same.
Also, the tweet is basically the facebook attention whore equivalent of:
"Oh em gee, I had a terrible day" "What's wrong?" "I don't wanna talk about it"
At a guess I'd say that it ran afoul of some law in some country against showing drug use/dealing in vidya games.
That's what I thought, too, but in a game where you spend most of the time killing people, with exploding heads and all, it seems a bit disproportionate to be bothered by drug consumption. That's video games for you, I guess.

Corrected.

Sure it is, but in a way that is very typical for video games, that's what I meant.
Nah, I believe it is more likely a bug is stopping the quest just like the "Earn your badge".
The part of the quest where you can't deliver the "herbs" to the sick guy is most likely just bugged, but I think Ryder's self-experimentation and SAM's subsequent spontaneous singing was cut on purpose.
