Yeah I noticed that too haha,
http://www.google.co...TF-8&q=ea stock 


I was following it here. The graph has some good interactivity.

More interactivity than the ME3 ending in fact.


Got to love how the stock price goes.

March 7, stock low. Mass Effect 3 releasead in US.

March 8, huge rise!

March 9, drop in the price.

March 12, rise in in the price

March 14, price drops like it's going out of the fashion.

March 15, Japan release, sharp increa.

March 16, peak, followed by quick fall as japanese fans start to finish the game XD

Nice to see an article being somewhat impartial and just presenting the facts.

Indeed. My save game for ME2 said I had played for 46 hours. At the end of ME3 I had played for 26 hours. I admit, I did not do all the little fetch and carry quests, but even being generous and adding another 10 hours, that would only make it to 36 hours. Makes you wonder.


My first playthrough took me around 30 hours. All sidequest completed, all sistems 100%.
But to be fair, all the scanning in ME2 added a lot of hours to the count.

Funny how the stock coincides with the fan's enjoyment of the game.

And to answer your sig: No. No there isn't.

I must say i am a little worried about the Movement because of the Responses to the ME3 Suggested Changes Feedback Thread it has only around 150 Pages. Im worried that it isnt enough response.

What was accomplished so far is somehow amazing i must say, but still im worried about the official Bioware Respond to the End Thread.


We dont want to clutter up the Feedback thread with "hold the line" posts and such. Dont worry, they definately know what what problems we have with the ending.


no we don't have to clutter it up, but go and and put your 2 cents in here was mine:
leave your 3 endings there....the people that liked them have them.....

give me an ending where i'm triumphant and go celebrate with my crew back on the citadel or earth....a few minutes where we can mourn the casulaties and a few minutes with my LI (this also doesn't have to be all rainbows and sunshine depending on your choices, this could easily be the 'semi-happy' too)

if the indoctrination thing is true, fine, go with it.....have something snap me back out of it and let me finish the war

go with the 'rescue' idea....make my crew members that magically teleported onto the normandy have to fight their way to something on the planet, get something to fix up the normandy and cut away with them saying 'we've got shep's distress signal'

have things come full circle, let me and my crew that got into where TIM was and defeat him (ala saren).....here it comes here's the twist.....TIM, though misguided as it has seemed, was looking out for the best interest of everybody.....he implanted himself with the reaper tech....but it worked in such a way (since he was exposed to the artifact so long ago and he knew this) that what was left after you killed him lets you implant that into the crucible and you can take over the reapers and have them destroy each other.....

Isn't the point of the movement that once we get what we want we'll just forget it all and forgive?


Yeah but don't tell BioWare. 


hm...

i don't know, but if this movement works (and i hope it will), then, maybe we should "keep it alive", because i am pretty sure, a lot of us play other games (like say biowares Dragon Age, SW:TOR and also games like say Starcraft II, Crysis (1 and 2) etc.) and we - as seen now - do not like to be screwed over, so maybe we should found some gamer-organisation to (the following could be a mission statement for an organisation):

Watch over games and the video-game industry, in order to never be screwed again and help ensuring that we - the customers - are satisfied with the quality of future games (like a "game watch"-organisation...like say food-watch and organisation that makes sure that ensure that you are not screwed over in the supermarket (with smaller boxes, cheaper makeup of the food etc.)?...just and idea though...it could be fleshed out more, of course, like handing out a price for the company that is best in satisfying the customers or something like that...)

well just an idea, as stated, but IMHO it does have merrit - even more as the groundworks has been laid already with this campaign!

This damn thread is more important to me than I could ever imagine. My net was out today, so I've come all the way out to an internet cafe JUST to help support the line. It's amazing, really..

Please never give up, guys. This entire ME universe is counting on us@


Now thats dedication! Glad to be a part of all this and hopefully one day we can all look back and say "Yeah, I was a part of all that and we succeeded!"

Whoo :happy:

My original theory on the Reapers was that, since one can immagine that the first race did not have the doom and gloom of iminent destruction over their heads they spread out through the galaxy, occupying it entirely until their population grew to such a degree that they could no longer sustain themselves as a race due to lack of resources. Similar to what was happening to the Drell, except that they had no saving grace to come down and rescue them, and that it was happening on a galactic scale.

The synthetics they had created eventually came to the conclusion that this would happen again and again and again after whatever infighting or civil war was done for.

So they took control, harvesting enormous ammounts of the first race to create the first reapers and wiping out the rest. Thus the foundation of the cycle.

They sought to preserve evolved, inteligent organic life, or those they deemed "worthy" in what was essentially an eternal museum (the reaper itself)

That was the theory anyway. Don't know about you people but I prefer it to the cyrcular logic of Organics will always be killed by synthetics so I- *Yada yada yada* you get the idea.


Thats a great idea. I thoght of them as any other living organism: they live, eat and procreate in fixed cycle.
Who created them, and why? Apparentely they 
themselfs are not sure  :D

How about we say this:

"The Retake ME3 movement is asking BioWare to add multiple, radically different endings to ME3 that take choices the player made throughout the series into account. Before the game's release BioWare promised us 16 radically different endings that took previous player choices into account. These endings would range from a minorly sad, yet happy ending to having the Reapers (the main antagonists) win. The final product does not contain any of this. Furthermore, it has no resolution and has lore inconsistencies. RetakeME3 is asking BioWare to fix these issues and live up to the promises many of us bought the game on. We are also aware that there are some people who enjoy the endings as is. We do not want to tread upon their enjoyment of the series, therefore we ask that if BioWare does fix the endings they release the fix as an optional DLC."

Feel free to add anything. I'm sure I didn't properly address all of our grievances.


This is perfect, you should put that into the suggestions thread with Bioware!

Neutral or postive the point that this has made  Tech Page of one of  Worlds  leading news outlets is a victory and  just puts more pressure on  EA and Bioware because they want to this story to go away... 

we can't let the happen.   Plus it always serves a huge counter punch to IGN, Destructiod, and Kotaku... 

Who would put more stock in BBC or IGN?

I think BBC, CNN, Forbes attention is more valuable than IGN's or Kotaku's.

BBC, CNN and Forbes are mainstream media, focused on everything, unlike IGN which primarly gamer's site.

Thanks to BBC, CNN, Forbes etc. people that are not gamers know that something is brewing...

Something I'd like someone to comment on, if they have any experience of it.

A friend of mine finished the game, but said when he got to the crashed Normandy scene, the airlock started to open, then it immediately cut to the credits. He didn't get to see anyone come out at all.

He normally lets the credits roll at the end, because "It was like playing a movie". But this time he cancelled them and got the grandfather scene. To say he wasn't happy not knowing if anybody at all had survived is a massive understatement.

I just wondered if anyone else had gotten this result?

Its really funny that the real Journalists are generally the ones taking a neutral/positive stance on us. Shows how unproffesional places like IGN are.
