I don't think anyone at Bioware is really at liberty to discuss anything EA does...

I agree.



They need to free themselves from EA, if that is at all possible -- even if it means abandoning the old games and starting a new one, or abandoning the name "BioWare" itself... We'll know it's them.
I surely would support the artists, If they said they were parting and going back to doing their little thing. And I'm sure many would pre-order their new game -- not only because it would be a great game, no doubt, but to wage war on EA, hehe.
Power to Bioware!   

Of course, I am assuming, here, that the people at BioWare have come to see that staying with EA may not be the best of things... If they do want to stay with EA, then: No comment.

They may not have a choice in the matter Leifa,  if they want to continue to produce games, now that they've signed up with EA..I am sure thats an iron clad contract, til death do they part..lol.  Or til Bioware can't come up with any more great product....then well...end of the line.

Why Florida and New York Can't Play
In
Florida Under the law, you should have an equal chance of winning,
whether you purchase something or not.
Florida and New York
require the sponsor to bond the sweepstakes equal to the total value of
the prizes. Once the winners are announced, a winners’ list must be
provided to the state(s) in order to release the bond.

Pretty sure Canada has something similar, but I just don't care enough to look it up.

I believe that you are making the common mistake of assuming BioWare controls EA's marketing.  Seems to be a similar lie to how Mhairi was hyped as a full companion.  BioWare made her as a redshirt, EA Marketing lied.  Which might be why BioWare hasn't said much about the constant whine since yesterday... Anyone hungry for some cheese?

Its Bioware's name on the thing so I'll hold Bioware accountable. If they didn't want the complains (and it was EA's idee) they should have called it EA bazaar

EA is in control here,  Bioware is the employee, basically.   Do you run around and tell your boss what to do? ^^

EA's name is also on it. Stop being ignorant.

No. Probably waiting on EA PR to cover this up and say 'oops'.

Hmmm EA?  Would they really care about this?  I'd be really surprised if they did..to be honest.

Nope nor do they care it seems. But to be fair I'm sure EA issued a gag order. They lost all talking rights when they accepted the money from EA. Shame too, I was all excited about SWTOR, now after seeing how BIo/EA handle things, I couldn't care less now..

Agree. I wouldn't expect anything from them. I don't really think they care at all.

Well they are going to try to sweep it under the rug and pretend nothing happened. That's what they did with the DRM situation back in 2007 and so far it's the same MO *shrug*.

If you can post here, you paid to be able to (bought the game). So in their eyes as much as you complain, you will still buy their games, like good lil lemmings. (I didn't mine was a gift )

Huh? He only did that to keep the topic to this thread, not to silence people. I never understood peoples desire to create a new thread to discuss something being talked about in a thread that already exists. An active one no less.

Actually, in this section of the Forum, you can post even if you have an "generic" copy of the game. There's no requirement for account creation. Only to post on the spoiler section of the forum we need to register our games serials.

I don't know exactly what their contract states. But if they can leave, even if it's only with their shirts, I'm sure that the community would stand behind them -- even if that means investing in the new "BioWare".
Imagine gamers waging war against EA by enabling the artists at BioWare to be independant. You could give however much you wish -- many internet sites and other bigger institutions survive only on donations. So add donations + Pre-orders of next game, even if it's to be released in a year, and it would add up. And I refuse to believe that the gamer community would refuse to be in on this -- their hatred of EA alone would incite them to help.
Anyways, maybe I'm being idealistic, but I remain convinced that it could work.
And I, for one, would be more than willing to give money in order to keep those artists inspired and working.
