 Yeah, the entire script has been found in the beta files, I gather. Every single line in the game I think. I wonder how "outdated" it is.

I'll never understand why someone would want to read the entire plotline of an unreleased game. I could see why they would spread it around, but why would you want to read it? Wouldn't you rather play it?

I don't mind the ME3 intro vid and Salarian homeworld vid. That was fine. Didn't spoil anything for me. But reading about what is exactly happening, what's going to happen and how its going to happen and what you can and cannot do about it seems entertaining?

Well the people who read these spoilers and are disappointed or upset because the story isn't "good" or "epic" in their view or their favorite character turned into an indoctrinated husk that you have to kill in the final mission have nobody to blame but themselves. I'd rather find that out myself through playing the game, opposed to reading about it.

I think it really depends on the reader, I read all the spoilers available for ME2 and (surprise), it spoiled the game a little for me. I intend to stay away from spoilers as best I can for ME3. Others might not feel like that though.

Guys it is has been asked not just by me, but many other users, and admins/mods that you guys not post spoilers. Keept them off the threads, pm eachother, and ect..


At least on my screen, they need to be selected / highlighted manually before they're visible...

That is not the point. Admins/mods have direcetly said you should avoid posting them period.

What is bad about reading this script is that there is not context outside of text. (No pictures, no voices, no emotion, no nothing beyond words) Doesn't help that there has been obvious changes and things been add to it.

Well let me put it this way, all those lines you saw in the leaked beta. They were in the script.

I didnt read it wholly, i left the ending out. And the lines are really mixed up in the leak, they are all over the place so there is really no continuity. You can read bits and pieces but you dont know where they happen and when, and half of the time you dont know whos speaking, tough u can guess from the lines.

Besides when the game comes some things might have changed and i certainly will not remember what they said in the script. Its much better to see and hear it.

So by that quote, since I haven't read either of the spoiler pages, does this supposed "new leak" deny all of the accusations that the previous leak was actually the final script and how people were upset?  Is it better in your opinion?  Try to keep it spoiler free as possible.

I read the script for two reasons, firstly I am European which means Mass Effect 3 will get spoiled for me long before I get to play it anyway since a global company like EA seems to have a slight problem with releasing stuff simultaneously world wide.  So whether I spoil the story myself  now or wait for someone else to do it 4 months from now is neither here nor there.

Secondly it is looking increasingly likely that EA is going to use Mass Effect 3 to shove the Origin client down my throat.  If that is the case I won't be buying or playing Mass Effect 3 at all, so I might as well find out what the story is all about now.  Then if the mood takes me I can watch the youtube waltkthrough videos.   There are plenty of reasons why some would be interested in reading about the story now rather than later.

I'd rather not waste my money and time on a game when I could have found out before that it was just going to disappoint or even disgust.


EDIT:  Hell, I wish I could get spoilers for life, I'd have wasted a lot less time and effort on other things too.

They kinda have to be: those lines from the "script" are actually the text for subtitles.  Also, if you look in the ME2 TLK files, you'll find text exists for the unused audio as well.  Not to mention, subtitle text for lines that have no audio at all.

A three-day difference amounts to "long before"?

It's long enough for all the "spoilers" to be spread all over the net before the rest of the planet even gets to play the game.  I pretty much ended up knowing all the "spoilers" from Mass Effect 2 before I even played the game and that was avoiding BSN and any other sites discussing Mass Effect 2.  

That is before we even consider the fact that US retail chains have a habit of breaking the street date (so the game can be available to US users nearly a week in advance) and on top of that 9 times out of 10 the console version is pirated weeks in advance.  In other words if you are a legit European customer then you are going to get the story spoiled for you before you get to play it anyway so you might as well spoil it yourself now.

Has no one considered simply staying off the Internet?

So...avoid sites likely to have said spoilers posted? I mean, it's not like every single site out there will be discussing ME3. I highly doubt, for instance, that the Wall Street Journal will be rotten with ME3 spoilers, as opposed to, say, GameFAQs.  But whatever.  Question still is:  three days truly counts as "long before"?

Seriously how damn impractical is that in this day and age ?  Look I just posted MY reasons why I read the leaks ok.  I don't want to debate it.

Look didymos1120 I don't want to get into some pathetic circular argument with you about this.  I saw the spoilers for Mass Effect 2 in a completely unrelated website that had nothing to do with gaming.  I have never been to GameFAQ's I have heard enough about that sorry site to know to stay away from it.

Yes three days does truly count as "long before" there will be story spoilers within 24 hours of the US launch (probably sooner if the pirates and US retailers have anything to do with it).  So yeah I will know literally everything about Mass Effect 3 long before I get to play it.  Now you can waste your time arguing about your definition of "long before" or you can just leave it.

Well, since you're obviously so testy about it,  I'll opt for "leave it".

Some of the new weapons in the leaked files sound so amazing based off their descriptions, especially one of the new sniper rifles which I think was in the concept art for mass effect 2.

Hi guys,
I've spent a considerable amount of time going through this thread and removing overt spoilers. Please refrain from linking to or posting information from the leaked files in the general discussion area. This is a really unfortunate situation and I'm sorry for those of you who accidentally ran across things that may affect your enjoyment of the game or the months leading up to it. Bans have been issued for those we have deemed are posting information out of malice or twisted gratification.

I personally have not read the leaked files and so when it comes to editing content, if what's being discussed isn't in ME1 or ME2, I'm assuming it's from the leak (sorry if I deleted your fan fiction or something lol). Anything I label as a "spoiler" doesn't denote whether it will actually appear in the game, so don't take my removing your content as validation of anything.

As a Community Manager, I only have a small glimpse of what goes on inside the walls of the studio, however, everyone has been working extremely hard on ME3 (psh, it's 10:30pm my time and even I'm still in the office) and the tiny look I got at the game is making the wait until March incredibly difficult. The amount of thought that's going into player agency is astounding and the dialogue trees I've seen alone reflect that. I wish you could really see people behind this game, they're a brilliant bunch.

Like I said, I don't know what's in those leaked files (other than what I've deleted here) or what's going to be in the final game, but no matter what it is or how much is true in those files, it's only part of your story. A story that is so grand it cannot be contained in one script (one reason that BioWare didn't submit to the WGA because the game can't be judged that simply). No game is perfect, but I have no doubt this one will be incredible.

So again, please refrain from posting potential ME3 "spoilers" here. PM me or get my attention on Twitter if you have any questions or need to report someone who does not respect this request. Be swell.

I should go,
Jessica

P.S. Chris uses this little guy Image IPB... I feel the need to use one too. Perhaps Image IPB will do.
