 Guess I'm not even going to bother to get the "extended cutscene" bs. 
I'll just watch it on youtube.

we won?

No we lost.


All they are trying to do is appease us, or create a fracture in the Retake Movement.
I'm telling you right now. I'm not appeased at all and I'll be damned before I let anyone sway me.

Hold the Line.

This may be a bone they are throwing at us, but, since their decision was already made, i don't think there is any point in holding the line anymore........


That is the talk of a loser.
You fall of a horse you climb up there in that saddle and show the horse who is boss.
You get kicked down and you get back to your feet, to strike back.
You start thinking like you lost and you'll never win.

And even if they keep it at that, even if you might lose, you will in the end know you gave it your damned best chance to make a difference.
Take a stance, pull up that thing you call a spine and straighten your back.
We give in now, we'll never make a change at all!

talk of a loser?! I'm being realistic, danm i'm holding the line since march 8 hoping and beleiving they would listen and now this???
What can i do now? grab a molotov and burn bioware??No.
The only thing i can do is not buy anything from them ever again.
The only way to hurt them is with our wallets.


You think I haven't been holding the line for that long? Ever since I finished playing the damned game I've been holding the line.
And you should know I wasn't talking about you as a loser, but that you were having the attitude of one.
I didn't get my own bakery by taking my beatings laying down. So you can be damned sure I'm not taking a beating from Bioware and taking that laying down.
And I'm being somewhat realisitic. But what can I say, I'm a damned optimist too. You fight for your right and it's the right of every gamer to have a decent game and even better endings.

anyone know that you can't delete your origin account?

currently chatting with support.
i feel like throwing something across the room.

or getting my car keys and running over my collectors edition a few times.


Someone once made a poster saying "Origin is powered by the devil". Can't put it any better than that myself. :mellow: Sorry for your pain.


support kept telling me that it's impossible to delete my account.. but finally caved and told me to write a mail to their privacy whatever mail.. that's the f* least they can do. 
but yes,.. they do seem to be powered by the devil..

and the woodchipper idea is pretty neat as well :> 
now i wonder why i ever wanted to hold on to my n7 badge.. guess i'll send it to them with a letter saying that i now feel too ashamed to wear it anway.. blargh.

Think about it people, our determination made them bring this issue out in the public and actually act on this matter. I'm positive they haven't started actual works on the DLC yet so it's still possible for them to reconsider additional variables... we absolutely need to continue to provide our feedback.

after this line from bioware, i don't think they are willing to change anything.

"No. BioWare strongly believes in the team’s artistic vision for the end of this arc of the Mass Effect franchise. The extended cut DLC will expand on the existing endings, but no further ending DLC is planned"


It's such ridiculous bull****. Their endings were so terribly bad. They should have worked further on the indoctrination theories, providing a possible continuation for people who got high military preparedness point and chose Destroy - where you wake up with your comrades beside the beam, get into the Citadel, have some sort of boss fight and win. Simple. I'm not sure I'll even pay for this, why bother? It doesn't really improve anything.

We must continue holding the line, now more than ever. We can't give up. Theyr'e trying to break our will guys. We have to stand united nowmore than ever.

As for Bioware, they chose to ignoire their fans when we needed them most. Thanks for nothing. You claim to be humble, but I fail to see how refusing to acknowlege a mistake and fixing it is humility.

I am guessing whatever we get will be work that was already done but was taken out during the ego trip the writers and producer had.  Stop the hold the line rhetoric.  They are not changing anything.  Accept it.  You want to hold the line, don't buy games from bioware or ea. That is the only way thy will actually listen. Our Shepard had to pay the ultimate price for their incompetance.  Let his sacrifice actually mean something


This.

Too many are too quick to give up.

That's why companies like EA continue to release garbage.

What the hell is Bioware proud abaout anyways? It's like running a marathon but quiting ten feet from the finish line. That's nothing to be proud of.

Or an even better anology; It's like running a marathon, but just backing your ass over the finish line to drop a steaming pile of poo.

This is damage control, that DLC was not in store, they felt they had to do it before the huge proportion the retake movement was taking.
And they do it because they are intent on exploiting the mass effect universe for future games.
But they chose not to modify the endings and we all have to respect it.

Be glad of what you've accomplished, it's unprecedented in video game industry. But thinking you will get more is delusion.


You are right, we do have to respect their decision. I just don't agree with it and will choose to spend my money elsewhere from now on.

Well guys it was fun, I probably will play some more multiplayer here and there, but this is the last game I buy from bioware. I will give it a run through see the red light one more time, see the new scenes and promptly give my last copy to the one place EA hates more than anywhere else, Gamestop.

Thanks everyone for a memorable time on the bioware forums. The comunity is what made Bioware someday they might see that again. Or well they could end up like Origin and become an empty shell of a new online service.

Peace out, Love all of ya
Akodo Reign.

Agreed, but normally they wouldn't even acknowledge the problem or let it spread across the internet. They were forced to perform these actions in a direct result of the blasklash they encountered. Don't be fooled by all their fancy PR, if this marketing "trick" won't work in their favour, they'll be forced to re-evaluate their strategy yet again.

Bioware. If you like it or not. One day we will have it our way. What is done CAN be undone. We will NOT thank you for adding sprinkles onto the crap of a ending.

I for one will never stop demanding what Mass Effect has earned. If you are that LAZY, move over for someone who gives a damn and get lost.


Lazy? It's not about being lazy. It's about not having the time, nor the money to do what people are, somewhat unreasonably, demanding.

There are absolutely no grounds, at least not legally, for false advertising.


No we are NOT asking for them to "completely change part of the game that could potentially be linked to other projects under development"

We are asking for EXTRA, ENTIRELY OPTIONAL ENDINGS. I don't care if they are not canon in further games. WHY SHOULD THEY BE WHEN ME3 IS THE LAST OF A TRILOGY!? They are done telling Shepards story (so they said), so what does it matter? Sure, you wanna keep the starchild/mass relay destruction bull****? Fine. In any case the endings cannot affect future games all that much and you know why? How are they gonna program a game where depending on your choice there are either:
  • NO syntetics
  • Controled synthetics
  • Everyone is a mix of both
The options are too divergent and they would have to either go for one or start from scratch and explain wtf happened. Either way, what we want in not unreasonable.

And believe me, as a lawyer I can tell you, in the US there are more than enough grounds to sue over false advertising. Just contrast marketing/promotional content promises and the actual product. It has been done in this thread and many others. A driven lawyer with enough cases could do it. Hell, it would set a Hell of a standart in therms of product quality in an industry that does whatever it wants.

What's there to do anymore? We were clear what we wanted, they said no.
Don't get me wrong, I'll hold until they release... whatever they decided would not destroy their Artistic Integrity, and then make my decision, but it's looking so dark from where I'm sitting atm.

Oh so uh... no marching up to the edmonton HQ and pelting it with dead squids screaming "REAPER INVASION"? Because I got all this calamari here and its starting to stink...


*uses space magic to get to Canada* Let the pelting begin!:wizard: (just because it would indeed be hilarious to throw a dead squid at someone and yelling like that anyways! )

Just in-case anyone need's a cheap giggle here's a quote about EA winning the worst company golden poo award thingy with a twist.

'Consumerist.com says that
it will now send EA "The Golden Poo" trophy in recognition of the
company's victory. Any guesses on what the special twist might be?
"Traditionally, the Poo has been delivered on its little red pillow,"
writes the Consumerist. "But this year, we'll give EA three different
color options for its pillow, though in the end it's still the same old
Poo." Yup.
'

I may of laughed my arse off pretty hard!

"So there you have it. Are we proud of the game we made and the team that made it? Hell yes. Are we going to change the ending of the game? No. Do we appreciate the passion and listen to the feedback delivered to us by our fans? Very much so and we are responding."

The tone is wrong in so many ways...

Now if Bioware was Shepard right before anderson dies. Anderson would say "I disappointed in you son."

You know what? I guess we were all not "intelligent" enough to understand their ending.

I am done with you Bioware.

Many parts of this game were lazy, the coding during the last 50% (I kept getting black screens or just seeing shepard stuck in one spot during the cut scenes once cerberus attack the Citidel.) Tali's face is another example of lazy, the art team has almost nothing to do when the game is about to go Gold and they could have been used to make a much better effort with that picture. People would still be upset but at least they would have made an actual effort. Kai Leng is just a lazy character, completely stereotype character that could have been much better. (When I first saw the black suited arm I thought Cerberus had cloned Shepard and was really hoping for that)
And horribly lazy with the ending victory fleet, where are my vorcha, living tanks, and krogan fighting along side Geth, Quarians and Asari. Eclipse mech holding off waves of Reaper forces? Nope, no matter how many races you recruit you get the same ground team in every event.

Though I don't think it's just laziness, I honestly think EA forced them to rush the game out. EA is very well know for this practice and it hurts every single game they do it to. I can understand and simpithise with Bioware if this is the case, except for the red blue and green endings, those endings are just not acceptible and it's insulting that they think we are just to stupid to understand their "Artistic Vision". If this is all they are giving us, it doesn't matter if these new cut scenes fix the plot holes and wraps up the ending nicely, I'm done with Bioware and EA, or at least till Bioware cuts ties with EA and then I might look at their product again.
