    Alright, been playing through the Citadel DLC and was curious about some things. This is all during the party bit, so not really any story spoilers.

    First, I never got Grunt's email about the cop in the Strip. I've got him, he shows up on the invite list, was loyal throughout & member of Clan Urdnot. Yet twice now I never got his little side mission/scene thing during the DLC. Whyfore not? Any ideas?

    Second, I got the emails from Tali/Liara/Miranda/EDI about coming up to the apartment to hang out, but saw no way to get them up there. Supposedly, Liara will play the piano, Tali will watch Fleet & Flotilla, Miranda talks and goes to the Strip, EDI asks for advice. How do I get them up there or are they limited to love interests coming up in some fashion? Even though Miranda was the LI for 2 & 3, saw no way to get her up there by herself.

    Thirdly, I got the email from Kolyat about the memorial service, but again, never showed up & couldn't invite him. I did do the scene with Shep in the hospital reading the passages. Again, whyfore he not show?

    Finally, I was able to get the scenes for Ashley, Garrus, Wrex, Joker, Zaeed, Kasumi, Jack (only the combat sim one), Javik, Samantha, and Cortez. Overall, I was missing Jacob, Vega, Miranda, Tali, Jack's other one, Samara, EDI, Grunt and Kolyat.

    Any help on getting these questions answered & other scenes unlocked would be a big help.

    Wow, I'm gonna have to play this DLC again. I didn't know there were so many scenes I missed out on until you listed them. I was able to get Liara, Tali, and EDI up to the apartment alone, but not Miranda. As I recall, I used the little message center on the desk in the back office and there was just an option to "Invite" them up. If I did something to make that option appear, I'm not really sure what it was.

    I did finally find it. I totally didn't check that left-most icon on the message terminal. Thought it was the same thing as the one on the Normandy. That one gets the invitees up there alone.

    For invitee scenes, there was EDI (shopping), Tali (Fleet & Flotilla), Vega (tattoo + pull up contest), Cortez & Vega (sporting event), Liara (piano), Samara (talk), Traynor (hot tub), Kolyat (memorial), Jack (pet), and Miranda (talk). There's a further event on the strip with Miranda if she's a LI. Grunt's finally showed up after doing the invites. Same for Jacob's. There's probably going to be variances based on love interests. Ideally, do the party right before the point of no return for max characters.

    Wrex, Joker, Zaeed and Kasumi's meetups don't show as emails, but are found. W&J in the upstairs bar of the casino and Kasumi's through a little device found on one of the walls of the casino. Zaeed at the claw game in the arcade.

    I did have to get a laugh out of Vega hitting on Smashley during the party. Especially considering that I was still keeping her going right up until before Miranda asking for resources to go get Oriana.

    didnt you get any of the scenes with javik they were pretty good

    *edit i misread that you managed to get them.

    also did you redo the party in different styles as it does change what happens and i noticed you didnt mention traynors other one in the arcade

    Ya, I had Samantha's in the arcade (that's Traynor's first name). Only done the wild party so far. Figure I'll replay with my FemShep who stayed with Liara through all 3 games and do the quieter affair. Shoulda said I had gotten the scenes from the emails/meetups outside the apartment.

    Ah, yes. I forgot about Traynor's hot tub scene. Such a loss for the male sex, I'm tellin' ya.

    Her talking to EDI during the party was pretty good. The thing I liked about the entire DLC was that it gave more...life...to the characters. I mean, the games were fairly good about fleshing them out, but this made them into people.

    The hell? I barely had any options for inviting any of the older characters. Still haven't even seen Tali at all in my play through. Or any options for interacting with the crew outside of the party really.

    Did you check that terminal in the office of the apartment? Also, you need to go in and out of the apartment several times for all the emails to eventually get to you.
