I've not got a grip on precisely when anything is likely to happen on Friday (probably the middle of the night UK time). I'll probably end up down the pub to put it out of my mind and wake up on Saturday morning to see if my hangover is forgotten or adding insult to injury.

9:30pm uk time

Cheers, right in the middle of Friday night pub time. That could be an issue.

Edit: It's not holding the line to run off and get drunk. Sorry, priorities re-assigned!

I will most likely be right here on Friday, not like I ever have anything else to do, even less so since this crap all started. So I'll bring the beer and soda (for those under 21 or who don't drink beer).

On a side note: stop talking about blueberry muffins. One of my favorite things on earth. Take pity on an old warrior, holding the line and without any good news to sustain him.

Can it not be considered good news that we're all still here together sticking to our guns? (I'm reaching but it's all I've got right now)

Well, OK. I guess we take what we've got.

And we may very well end having done a good thing. Probably irrelevant, since it may have been planned all along. But may go down as a good thing. (now I'm being cynic. Maybe I've got the blues today...)

Well whatever happens on Friday great things have been done for a number of deserving charities and people have gotten together on forums and been incredibly supportive and friendly (for the most part). I certainly wouldn't be sitting here chatting with you all if it hadn't been for the ME3 endings

there had better not be a Hurricane in mine again like last time, that thing is useless, its so inaccurate

And yet in SP, your squadmates can use it, and get hits like its nothing at all.... Pissed me off how worthless it was, ah well the N7 Valiant makes up for it, along with the Eagle, and whatever the Assualt rifle is...

Two LOTR quotes I always associate with this situation:

Sam: I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be
here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones
that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And
sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be
happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad
had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow.
Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it
will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with
you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why.

Theoden: Where is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn
that was blowing? They have passed like rain on the mountain, like wind
in the meadow. The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into
shadow. How did it come to this?

Seriously, what happened to you Bioware, I never could have imagined I'd be sitting here protesting Bioware of all companies.

I suppose I could equip either Hemingway or T.S. Eliot with it for larks. They are my Krogan Soldier and Krogan Sentinel. Hmm, definitely Hemingway, he's supposed to be drunk anyhow, so not hitting Atlas in front of him would kind of fit.

Root Beer? I'm sucker for both Root Beer and Dr. Pepper... Oh that reminds me I should go out and get another mini keg of the stuff... we've run out cause apperently my roommate had a party last night and they drank all 5 mini kegs... those bastards.... <_<

get yourself some inhouse supplies and do both

[Cybermortis]

I'm going to go watch Sherlock on DVD for a while, and possibly fondle my new cane.

(Get your mind out of the gutter right now)

Keep holding the line, I'll be back later with the coffee shipment.

A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand, fans of Mass Effect!

eh, I got an Indra last time, so I'm cool. I just wish I could get my Vic Pack for this op. I go to the store and it's not there; did they pull it and if so, they got a rerelease timeframe?

EDIT: nevermind, found/read the thread.

I'll be here after class lets out (12:30 or so MDT) - just a couple of hours before the panel at PAX starts. I really hope they get the live stream worked out, but I'll be here either way, absuing the heck out of my F5 button.

I can't even replay some NWN mods because of this feeling of betrayal..

Still, this thread cheers me up a little.

What's happened over the last 7 pages? This thread is again somehow moving forward faster than I actually read it.

The Valkyrie? I think the Valkyrie is over powered to be honest, I dont even use it, it's so easy. I hate the Argus tho, the Mattock puts it to shame...

[Xoler92]

I don't know about you guys but if they release a new ending, ( or "clarification", or whatever) i'm going to look it up on youtube before I even consider the possibility of buying it.

Unless they somehow manage to completely blow us all away with some super awesome dlc (and quite frankly an apology) then i'm done with EA and Bioware, they won't get another cent from me.

I'm giving them one last chance to show me that they really care and listen to their loyal costomers. On the one hand they claim that they do but on the other they just go about their buissness ignoring any and all problems, stating stuff like "another successful launch!" It infuriates me to no end when they do this!

/end rant, sorry I just had to vent a bit

I finished ME3 a few hours ago for the first time, and initially I was pretty confused and then shortly after, angry. But after reading more on these forums and other things, Indoctrination Theory really makes sense.

Personally, I think even calling it a theory at this point is ridiculous. Unfortunately, I had heard about the outraged fans at the ending before I got to play it. I never read any spoilers and just played it once; and because the ending is a bit more difficult to digest if Indoc is true, you're unlikely to really completely realise what is going on after one single playthrough where you are still mezmerised by other new aspects of the gameplay.

Arguably, that probably shouldn't happen, but it has.

I'm sure there are plenty of people on here that have played through it more than once already and disagree with Indoc, but I really don't see how you can.

I think the problem here has been that fans generally weren't expecting something this subtle and it took a lot of people aback. We didn't give the writers enough credit, and I spent an hour posting crap on here before I thought about it properly, which I'd like to retract.

No one could have predicted that any game company would be willing to risk pissing off so many core fans because of beautiful writing that might take a bit longer to shine through.

I suggest that (if you haven't already) read about Indoc or watch some videos about it on youtube, then replay ME3, which I'm about to do now, then see what you think.

Of course, I can't be certain Indoc is correct, but just try it if you haven't already.

I wanted to believe IT, but as more time goes by and the details are bubbling up from the Latin American arm of EA, and Jennifer Hale saying that Bioware hasn't contacted her yet. I just really think that they legitimately blew it, and you know what? That's ok. Nobody's perfect. I just want to see what they plan on doing to "clarify" what they did decide to give us.

Yeah, they had to, apparently playing SP and then accessing MP again would reset the packs on EA's end > magical Christmas for gamers. Last time I checked, they didn't give a timeframe though.

Definitely going to wait and watch it on Youtube before buying (if they make an ending DLC at all).

And that will be the last thing I buy from EA. Heck, Bioware was an exception in the first place ! I still remember what they did to Westwood, Bullfrog, and others...
