Anyone else find it hilarious he is playing Skyrim and not you know, his game? Then again I've been playing Skyrim instead of ME3 too.

So April, what do you guys think is going to happen?



Pondering on what will happen is as pointless as teaching a Vorcha abstinence education.

Just go play another video game for a while and check in from time to time. Currently I'm playing Amalur while waiting for Diablo III.

On that thought...Witcher 2 is releasing an enhanced (ie Fixed with more content) game April 17th. Now if they wanted to release an Enhanced edition of ME3 as a DLC with fixed ending and a lot of additional content, I would buy that. But that is also a bit borderline since it could be seen as encouraging companies to release functional skeletons of the game and charge us for the primary organs.


The difference is, for those who already have the game on the PC, they're giving the enhanced stuffs for free...

I'm about to cross No-Man's-Land on my 2nd playthrough now. Seeing the spacebattle and groundbattle again showed how poorly integrated the War asset system are. Instead of making lots of different war assets, there should've been fewer, but better integrated. For example there is an Armali Sniper Unit you can recover. Why not make a cutscene where Alliance soldiers are being overrun, then the snipers take them out. Or show how Aralakh company led by Grunt enganges the enemy in a fierce battle. The Geth Prime platoon could also be shown in a cutscene. Or soldiers that have to hold an important positition close to being overrun when they get help from the Salarian STG led by Major Kirrahe. He comes to the soldier in charge and saying "Salarian STG here to hold the line."

And during the space battle why not show how the SSV Leipzig cutting through one Reaper, seeing as it was one of the first Alliance ships to test to successfully test the Thanix Cannon. And also the Destiny Ascension. I'm thining of a scene like in Episode 4 A new Hope wjhere Han comes in at the end to save Luke. A Reaper could be about to take out an important ship when the Destiny Ascension arrives and tears through it.

There are countless other scenes with the former squadmates like Samara and so on. This battle would've been probably the most epic in gaming history. And the War Assets would've really mattered.


Agreed.

In fairness to Bioware I can accept such ideas having to be dropped from the game due to limited time. In fact I seem to recall someone noting that the battle-scenes at the end had to be contracted out to a third party.

I guess it would be possible to create and install such clips into the battle scenes, since you wouldn't need dilolog - or you *could* lift it from existing recordings in all of the games (Grunt yelling 'I AM KROGEN!', Jack's 'I will destroy you!' ect). But I wouldn't expect Bioware to go back and do this, it would seem more of task for modders.

Hey guys!! Just thought I'd tell you all that I did a speech today at school about the ending and why it was so terrible. People seemed very curious :D

I have seen some asking about a stream from PAX. I read today that Twitch TV have partnered with PAX to broadcast some panels etc. I'm not sure if the Bioware panel is in that list.

CD Projeck did the exact same thing with the original Witcher. They went away for a few months, then came back with an enchanced edition with more quests ect. Then they gave it away free for those who already had registed versions of the game.

And now you have probably convinced a whole classroom to not buy any ME game. Good job :P

Now you need to do a follow up speech: if they release a new ending, talk about it. If they don't...make sure you tell them what a mistake Bioware just committed...

I hate it.
In a ME-forum I often write is a moderator with the catchphrase "The 'true' fans are those, who wish for the downfall of a whole development-company, because they didn't like the last 10 minutes of a 120-hour-trilogy."

(Yes, he is very unsympathetic).

I intend to get another cane, as soon as I can find another place that sells them, one that I like and also can afford.

And *sighs* once again someone thinks I'm female...I give in. I'll go buy a dress tomorrow.

Seriously though, as a moderator is he allowed to make comments like that?

Would you be shocked? When the cup cakes arrived they released a statement that basically said that since we didn't send praise they don't care.

A- ONly had 1 cutscene of the awesome galactic battle. ME1 had 3-4 I think cutscenes with soverign alone.
B- wth are some of our allied ships, geth, terminus, rachni?
C- during the earth battle, I was seriously expectic to see the krogan riding their dinasours and ripping husks to shred, Primes wrestling a brute one on one, 2-3 Justicars tearing the crap out of banshees.
Hell wth are the elcor making a mess of cannibals by riding into battle. The Drell infiltrators snapping necks of snipers.

All we got were a few scenes of multi racial or by today standards "rainbow teams" instead of witnessing the might in awe of the species individual strengths complementing each other as they tear the reapers a new poop hole.

Aside frmo that of course... what happended to all of our C-sec security assets? Did strengthing c-sec was for nothing?... well no we know it was but seriously?. geth jamming data? starting a militia?higher stockpiles of medicine?.

Did I forget to mention how I was waiting to see krogans and geth primes fudge a brute one on one? :P



To be honest everrything up to where we have our little talk farewell thing with everyone was good. After that is... jsut empty

I dunno, like I said, he is pretty unlikable (but he doesn't care about that, so whatever).
He argues that, if someone likes the ending, we come out of our "holes" and bash this one without reasoning.

By the way: it is not an offical BioWare-Forum.

I get why they did the cupcake thing though. I was pleased that it went to a charity rather than having them sitting on a table at the Bioware offices going stale because people were away.

Thank you :happy: And that is actually a really good idea. There are quite a few gamers in my class thankfully, so I'm sure they'll continue to be interested.
