Unfortunately you are correct, it could be anything from more MP dlc to a dlc they already had in the pipeline. We won't know anything for certain until it's announced.


Nah, they said that they rearranged the DLC schedule to get the EC out to us ASAP. This tweet was yesterday, so it rules out resurgence. 

True but that doesn't rule out that they already had something else ready to go into testing. I would assume that reprioritizing the dlc schedule to focus on EC is focussed on the dev team and the writers, not the testers yet.


perhaps they got crackin on it as soon as there was a massive shytstorm about their 'ending' and figured 'maybe we can sell this to some dopes if we get it out before they finish'

Yeah I agree they are really stubborn, pretty much proven by them constantly using the same excuses the biggest one being "the teams artistic vision".

I sincerely hope you are right, I hope EA pay close attention to everything as for the impact on buisness, I'm worried about that...the recent FREE MP DLC proves that some people have no will power, I mean sure it was free but it still shows them that people are downloading. If the people here had NOT downloaded the MP DLC it would have given a good impression on our resolve.



As I understand the resolve is to not give Bioware any more money until the fix the endings. You can hardly blame people in grabbing free stuff rather than paying for it later.

 I can't believe they haven't shut this thread down yet. Really people? Time to move on, Bioware is giving us the closure they feel we deserve and a free multiplayer dlc  for repetance. They're not going to "redo" the ending, so, stop all the qqing. 


This has gone way beyond the endings, and turned into something... More... So much more.
Join us or suffer the same fate as Alex Valper... I'm not even supposed to mention that name here.:?

K, so they'll test it, then just leave it on the back burner until the EC is released? Summer is only a month and a half away.

Well let's be realistic, they can't have a big team dedicated to a game sitting around twiddling their thumbs (no ending comments please, trying to be serious), so it makes sense that they've been working continuously since the game was finished and went off to be shipped.

Summer does last a few months and they didn't say when during the summer it will be. It could be in August for all we know Image IPB

Yup, and most of the technical content is already there, it's not like they have to recreate Shepard and the rest from a scratch.

Oh I'm with you, this is just too bizarre for Bioware to have done. These guys are supposed to be even more invested in the series than we are. I honestly think there's a very good chance we're being played. If this is true and they come out with something amazing their sales are going to go through the roof.

Their sales will but their credibility...

 Anyways... I got to get to sleep a bit early tonight. Got to wake up early morning to catch the start of Playoff Hockey.

I'll leave this note from the Toronto Maple Leafs for their failures this season as an example of how to make an apology. Given the circumstance, I'm not sure Bioware is aware of how to do so. I don't even like the Leafs (I kinda hate them) but stuff like this makes me respect them a hell of a lot more. Taking this and printing it on a full page ad in the newspaper is them showing a lot of respect for their fans.

How come Bioware does not place information on Blogs, instead of Twitter. I hate that site, and only incomplete sentences can be placed on there. On a side note, g_Bassi, your avatar reminds me of President Obama for some reason...did he get into the Mass Effect universe with Space Magic?:P

It's from this comic about the whole Tali stock picture contreversy:

With the picture of Shepard being the "Why can't I hold all these limes" guy.


OMG, this comic is hilarious. :lol:

Maybe at first, but lately I have felt nothing but apathy from them

Even though some tweets seem to point to BioWare playing us, i'm not getting my hopes up. There is always the chance that i could be wrong and we are being played.

The Free MP stuff may barely make up for the coolest character in the game being Day 1 DLC, it sure doesn't make up for an ending too. They don't have to do anything to please the gamers, same can be said of any Developer out there. Problem is, they WANT to make us happy because if they don't we won't buy their games anymore. Then there is no more Developer.

I do not think you understand how capitalism works :)

Some credit needs to be shown to Bioware in all this; they did hear us, they listened, and they're taking the cost-effective approach to making the player happy. And it's true that not all players, not even everyone in this thread, feels the entire present ending needs to be removed. Clarity could potentially work, explaining what happened to the relays. The Star Child? Complain as you want, but it's not its existence so much as what it SAYS that is infuriating. It's a form designed to fill a purpose, nothing more. The logic behind wiping out organics to prevent organics from being wiped out, somewhat worse. The ending cinematics being color-coded versions of a single cinematic is worse. Our choices having little or no visible impact on the ending, this is what is unforgivable.

No one ranting for a better ending wants Bioware to go away. We've loved the series, we love the brand despite recent stumbles. We WANT to love this game, and we love 99% of it. If we didn't, we'd have taken our full refunds and washed our hands of this mess.
