Seeing the colossal fail that was "TEH GRAETEST THIEF IN TEH YOONIVURSE" I'm still a little wary of another $7 DLC.

all I know is that the cerberus network is starting to seem like a total letdown, although this seems a bit interesting

Well, looks really interesting and neat. Can't wait to get my paws on it. Still would like to get some gear as well, the armor locker is still a bit sparse (and is it just me, or do pretty much all the N7 armor alternate bits look... not so good?) :)



Love the preview pics.

Hey, I enjoyed that DLC. Locust, casual outfit, minibar, statue of liberty, good hour of so of gameplay and Kasumi, who's kickass. I'm satisfied to pay $7 for that. Infact, here in England it was more like £4

To be fair, they have made some errors with their DLC, but this is definetly a step in the right direction, and Kasumi was good also. Some people are just overly critical.
Example:
I don't like the armour pack as it is near useless and bad value, and I'm in the majority, but alot of people are threatening not to buy this pack due to no weapons/armour. Poor bioware have a hard job.

The fact that the hammerhead is getting some proper use makes me happy



Plus it's only 7 bucks. I'm not surprised by the amount of people with entitlement complexes here.



my only hope is that Shepard won't be mute. I know it has 'full voice acting', but does that mean there will be dialogue conversations, or will Shepard just be running around and shooting stuff while the Overlord rants away?

Sounds good but I hope this isnt all the DLC they are announcing this week.

:blink: what more do you want?:huh:

"Liara DLC with 25hours of content, 12 new weapons and full voice-acting for $7, but even that's a push pricewise. Jerks, trying to steal our money."


Sad and pathetic, but true of too many of the people here.

Nothing fail about Kasumi whatsoever.

Legion has some explaining to do. so far he's the only dove geth i've seen evidence for. the rest just latch on to any cause that let's them go to war.

Hopefully the former...I expect the latter though.

Sounds cool but at the same time i still get the feeling that its gona be a quick mission i mean the hammerhead mission was cool but they were not that great so i hope this will be different. Dont get your hopes up now cause bioware has a way of squashing the flat! dragon age awakening, bazaar and equalizer pack all of them crushed my expectations cause they sucked bad, still love bioware though!

Overlord will be gold standard Bioware quality (think Kasumi - but longer). VO based conversations, cutscenes, strong narrative.

It's 5 full missions (one of them being a vehicle based hub) - and just wait until you see the boss.

Ah. Darn. I was really hoping for platinum standard Bioware quality. For that you need jokes ("this is my favorite DLC announcement in ME2") in addition to the strong narrative.

Pass.

(I kid, I kid).

You got me with the boss thingy. I am hoping to see some really nasty AI.

I know I posted this a few pages back, but I quoted the wrong person. :P

If we buy the DLC and have one of our characters not do the mission (or mess up the mission intentionally), does the plot flag carry over as:

I'm officially excited about this DLC. Now just up the hammerhead's shields a bit...

I was hoping for the super ultra double-platinum BioWare quality Reaper's Edition DLC.

Will this DLC be related to the main story or is the story completly independent ?

Sad and pathetic, but true of too many of the people here.

Let's consider that Mass Effect 2 is probably... 35 hours for a full playthrough (this includes N7 missions and such)? I generally see people report between 20 and 50 hours for their first playthrough. I think mine was 42 because I get distracted by shiny objects ;)

At a $50-60 price tag, you're paying $1.42 to $1.72 per hour for unique gameplay time.

Kasumi was around 1.5 hours for $7. That's about $4.66 per hour for unique gameplay time.
This is 2.5 hours for $7. That's about $2.8 per hour for unique gameplay time.

We're getting closer to "fair value", but there's still a significant premium attached.
You'd think DLC would cost less to produce than the full game since you don't need to go designing a game engine/ability system :P

Let's also consider that a lot of people are saying "pass" largely because of the price. If they slashed the price of the DLC to $4 (which would be around $1.6 per hour of unqiue gameplay time - in line with the main game), perhaps large amounts of these people wouldn't pass and Bioware would end up making around the same amount of money with the same content --- and would have happier customers!

Anyway, steps in the direction, at least. Kudos.

I though that Equalizer Pack was it....thank you Bioware for proving me wrong. I was pessimistic. Hope you will give us some new weapon too....

From the screens they look like Loki mechs so since that is all we have to go on it would seem that they tie in with that side questline in game.
