I just thought of something that could be a viable solution to the paid vs free dlc ending.

How would you feel if they were to charge 10$ for the dlc and donate 50% of the proceeds to child's play. Not only would they make money off of it they would look like the good guys for giving money to the charity drive.

If you like that could you tell me where a place to let BW know about it is.

That's actually a really good idea, I mean I personally think the likely hood of getting it free is very very unlikely. So this is a good compromise.

That is my thinking as well, since we are unlikely to get it free then it would make me feel better about giving them money if some of it was going to support something other then BW's bank account. Also this would generate an enormous amount of money for the charity drive. 

If someone knows of a place to write this that would be heard I would put it up there.

I could start looking for a place. What you must be clear of is that it won't be an easy task. You would have to have some thrilling arguments and some skills in discussion for that.

*As i fly around in my transporter ship, reaching my first destination of Germany, i look back over the payload i carry, about 2 dozen large crates, each holding the words "HOLD THE LINE! " put over the length of the crates with permanent marker, i smile to myself, proud of this armada we have formed, invincible if we hold true to that little line that was put so brazenly onto the crates

I figured it would be nice to motivate the troops with some things besides holding the line. Each crate contains a small note of encouragement, 4 barrels of beer, something tasty to eat like chocolate bars instead of the rations the soldiers eat every day, Footballs, baseballs, some magazines to keep the men warm at night, mail for the people of the respected areas from family and friends. All put together nicely to support the men.

As i fly over and open the cargo door, i let my copilot take over to oversee the first drop over germany, smile, and continue with my work, dropping crates all over the world.

Enjoy the drinks guys. Strengthening the line.*

Just delay tactics most likely. And here is some motivation for you! www.youtube.com/watch

It's not Shepard, but I think you will like it

Hold the line!

I suspect that simply posting it in this thread is good enough. I'd be astonished if BW wasn't keeping an eye on what we are saying. Especially considering the effect we are having all over the place.

"That" is where grunt dies.. As commander he would have died when the rest of the company was wiped out.

Well it seems like a very long time when on the forums, but it's really only been a few days so far.
All the while we're getting major news coverage, we're far from loosing momentum.
Give it time, hold the line.

Meanwhile this might cheer you up (in a sarcastic kind of way)

Going to bed for now, good night everyone

Everyone I would like to politely suggest that we accumulate the various arguments we have made against the terrible endings and that we also coordinate our efforts into keeping morality strong. Find funny videos, provide an ear for your comrades to listen to, remember, united we stand and we cannot do this alone. We need to remain strong.

http://social.biowar.../index/10133310

Everyone should vote in the above thread as well as it provides even ground and many options but not enough to dillute our point, people, please.

That's a very good poll.

About the first point: An accumulation of arguments wouldn't be too helpful. Let's instead formulate one argument as to why the 'ending' makes no sense at all.

We're not asking for further 'explanation' as to the appearance of Casper, and the Normandy getting stranded. The problem is not that we're failing to understand any of these.

We're not asking BW to justify their decisions. We don't think they can. We want the Casper scene taken out, and the final role of the Catalyst and the Crucible be rethought.

We don't want the story of ME3 to come to an abrupt stop, at a Diabolus Ex Machina (Casper). We want events in the endgame to follow logically from previous events.

These are very general outlines, that make no 'positive' prescriptions; they rather lay out the necessary constraints under which BW out to rewrite the end. We're not petitioning for specific endings. We're petitioning for an 'ending framework' that is logically sound.

That's our demand for 'closure'. By 'closure', we do not mean, "...extra farewell dialogues just before the Casper dialogue; and an epilogue as to what happens to the characters afterwards..."

[Dj14365]

I have a few ideas about how to convince them that the charity donation would be good for them and do you think the thread where they are taking ideas on the ending would be a good place to post it.

No, you can complete the mission with grunt alive and the Rachni queen saved.

You get Grunt as a war asset and Aralakh comapny, but they're only worth a few points while the rachni give you a lot of points.

Yeah, unless you kill the Rachni Queen, the company always dies.

This scene hasn't much sense as well, by the way. In ME2, rachni built spaceships already, they had agents (brokers) in civilized space - and in ME3 you find their queen in some dirty cave, no tech around except the one from reapers, laying eggs for reapers because they "hurt" her? What a waste. I was like "I gave you the second chance and now you're whining again? Screw you, I'm outta here".

For me he walked out of that cave, heavily wounded but still alive. He is not happy to see the rachni alive and kickin' but he forgives Shepard
