Wonder why we can't comment in it? Why is it the only one locked in the whole "news" forum?

Probably to stop emotional fans from getting their own ass banned :lol: Also a thread like that can quickly become a hate nexus as it's directed at one of the people "responsible".

And please don't start with name calling :P He's not evil.

Hold the line!


Or news sites link to the article they won't see any bad comments.

Guys, one thing I do want to point out (I made long posts on it last night when everything seemed at its darkest).

This is more than about just this game. This is about this medium as a whole; we've all seen how things are rehashed over and over again in the gaming industry, and we're expected to just shut up and take it.

If this works, if we truly do this, then we've set a precident...that we, as the consumers, as the passionate fans, -do- mean something...and it will shake the gaming world to the core. Companies won't be able to shove through substandard material and expect people to take it because they have 'no choice'. I mean, if a game as terrific as Mass Effect 3 had one flaw and brought out this many unified voices, how much longer before crap games start getting massive campaigns thrown against them?

Hold the line, folks.

"So we have to fight Operation: Goliath? Sounds like a euphemism for our fight right now. "

I had to google what euphemism means and I still had NO way of understanding it :P

But if it means what I think it means, I wouldn't say that. It's a chance for us to make a statment.

Pikey. Why are you here? What exactly is your purpose besides just telling everyone that wants to see this through that we're all a bunch of idiots wasting our time? What exactly do you gain from this? Do you gain anything at all?


Just offering my perspective. This IS a discussion forum after all, no?

Never once did I call you guys idiots btw. If I had to choose, I'd be on your side. I just wouldn't want to join a war where I'd face certain doom/loss. 


Proving that even those who disagree with the movement still have felt that unless BW gives us more about the ending, it has killed it's replayability.

Like it or not, you're on our side, you just don't want to commit.

This is my game.


Everyone here should remember that what we are doing is working. They are scared of this movement because they have never seen anything like it before.
They thought they could just buy us off and make us quiet with a free weekend of TOR. It failed.
They thought the movement would lose steam if they offered us some big mp mission crap. It failed.
They thought that hudson's comments would demoralize... us and derail this whole movement. It failed
They think if they just wait and keep giving us more stuff we will give in. It will fail.
We are going to hold this blasted line to the last! We are going to take our games back showing them that they need us! (All in a paragon manner of course but we are still gonna hold this fraking line!)

If you need motivation to believe that we are having an effect read this: http://social.biowar...ndex/10084349/1


Lol I thought you were going to say "IT WILL FAIL" at the end instead of HOLD THE LINE.

Emergency induction ports...I love you Tali :)

But the reason I'm thinking support the indoctrination theory is that it gives them an easy out; they can add on ending DLC that will work, and will cost them less money (making it more likely they'll do it) in the process, rather than re-writing everything.

Just my opinion on the matter; everyone agrees that something must be done :)

 

...... 

bringing  the two the sides that want different endings together... a stronger unfied front. Its not like we want different things but  good gracious  that theory smells of PR and Marketing Gimmick that it leaves a not good feeling in my stomach.   

I see what your doing  and in the end ...If gets us different endings... I won't go against it.    Just don't expect me just waving the theory around like a banner.   I don't like that theory  and still want my 16 different endings.

And yeah. Remember folks, the stay civil calls aren't so much for Biowares sake as for ours. The quickest way to lose legitimacy is to cone off as out of control unconstructive nerd raging kids. Losing our cool muddies our message and makes it easier for Bioware to turn enough of the gaming community against us to give themselves cover to ignore us. So yeah, stay civil and reasonable. Friendly even, though still passionate.

So would I, but as you say I would prefer to see the endings changed to something better, period...and these would be better (although, as you say, smells of PR gimmick) and easier...let's hope they pick the harder option =)

Exactly. If we stop being civil, we will be what they were trying to show us to be - entitled hates. "Bioware Soxxorz" group.

And if we are obnoxcious to each other, nobody is going to want to stay here. It's one of the reasons I avoided old BioWare forums, the trolls, the haters, the language that was used. I'm positively surprised and happy about this thread, and about you people.

Exactly, its a way of making sure its harder for reporters to find out what the community is all about. They will just take caseys word for it in the article rather than browsing thru the forums. Had it been left open there would be a greater risk of reporters diverging from caseys statement.

Hi all.

Heared there was a line around here somewhere.  Thought I would add another body to it.

Me a few hours into ME3 - This is epic!!  Love it love it love it...
Emotional state - I.AM. KROGAN!

After seeing ending for the first time - But but but...  Why? How? Space magic?  But how is Tali gonna get home...?
Emotional state - i.am.broken

Please BW, have mercy on a broken old Talimancer.  Don't leave them all stranded on a random jungle planet...

Respectfully holding the line.

Shouldn't that be like either the Krogan or the Rachni?

Because most likely people would rage there - which is the last thing we want.  We've been respectful; civil and plainly awesome so far.  Lets keep it up folks.......
