Since the thread is dead this seems appropriate. I'm at page 3842 and iterating backwards...


This is the list of Biggles' deaths. As you know, much like Kenny, Biggles does not seem to stay dead. The reason for this is not yet known, but may people are trying to kill him to find out.

"The question not is when, but how, will I die!"
-- Biggles - May 21, 2012 (page 4001)


Note: For anything not on the list you will need to claim the bounty to have it added.




3815 - toffeetrooper knocks off Biggles head with a biotic kick.
Nharia1 gives the corps to children and plays ball with the head.
3858 - toffeetrooper places anti-plot armour bomb underneath biggles post.
3942 - Biggles face melts because of Atrocity's gaze. Not sure if it's fatal
but it sounds terminal.
3957 - Biggles dies on Arrival (ME2).
4019 - Hitman629 overloads the plane. Causes an firey barn inferno.
4024 - Claims to have been crushed by paper avalanche. "Death" report is suspect.


Near miss:

3760 - Biggles kills himself trying to destroy a video. Aparantly unrelated to the
collatral damage caused by Major Swift's Napalm strike. Biggles later found wandering
with a magnet on his chest.

3924 - Major Swift kicks Biggles into a well of day-one dlc's/multiplayer madness
3939 - Atrocity preps a shotgun for a Biggle hunt.
4028 - toffetrooper straps a bomb beneath Biggles plane, and jumps.
But he only gets a mannequin. Later kills the CEO of EA by accident.
4029 - ? Attempted decloak assasination by Cursed zeba.



Excelent, put one of the near misses in chronological order for you.

I am assuming when I iterate back far enough I will ind the spawning point. I suspect it is because of one of our resident necromancers....

HITMAN could have also done it just for kicks maybe?

Hitman seems to be more interested in hunting down poor Biggles than bringing him back. Sort of like van Helsing hunting down dracula. I can't imagine van Helsing bringing him back because he had nothing to do.

I see we are attempting to disern the origin of Bigles well I have the answer: Biggles has no beginning. Biggles has no end. He is infinite. Millions of years after your thread has been eradicated and forgotten, he will endure.

Don't know about that. What you did to the body doesn't speak of a desire to have a functional Biggles in the future.

They're peasants. They don't go anywhere.

Now, VIKINGS, some of THEM travelled halfway around the known world in roughly the same time period.

Is this really the answer? Please say this is NOT the final word on "THE ENDINGS". As a big fan of the games I have played AND oun from BW / EA , if this is the final word on endings for this franchise I will be very hurt, and will no longer purchase any titles from this company.

Here is a mini FAQ to help you understand what the Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut is and isn't:

What can fans expect from the Extended Cut DLC?
For fans who want more closure in Mass Effect 3, the DLC will offer extended scenes that provide additional context and deeper insight to the conclusion of Commander Shepard's journey.



If that is all you have to offer then this DLC better rock my socks off literally.

Are there going to be more/different endings or ending DLCs in the future?
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.



I'm am sorry but this isn't artistic, to fans of this franchise, it is utter sacrilage. By making this statement in this FAQ you have effectivly said, "Yes we're listening but we don't care about you fans because we think our "artistic" view is fine just as it is, and you (the fans who were suckerd into paying for this game) are a bunch of low-brow, cry-babys. Personaly I find that rather insulting. We, for the most part are not children, and are of above avrage inteligence, and don't deserve to be pandered to. We fans, have come to love this character we have worked so hard to build up through 3 long games in this franchise, only to have him / her tossed onto the garbage heap.

What is BioWare adding to the ending with the Extended Cut DLC?
BioWare will expanding on the ending to Mass Effect 3 by creating additional cinematics and epilogue scenes to the existing ending sequences. The goal of these new scenes is to provide additional clarity and closure to Mass Effect 3.



I'm sorry but this is completely unaccepable. You mean to tell me, you couldn't have written at least one ending that brings Shepard a final TRUE victory? This comming from some of the most talented game writers on or off the planet? I mean common, Shep's been through hell and back,(and we the fans, right along with him/her), the least you could do for the guy/gal would be to let him retire peacefully with his love intrest in that little house with the white picket fence.

When will the Extended Cut DLC be available?
Currently the Extended Cut DLC is planned for this summer, no specific date has been announced at this point.



Like I said before, "It better rock my socks off",because if after I have seen this "EXTENDED CUT" and find it's still lacking, I for one will never spend another dime on any product from BW / EA ever again.

Why are you releasing the Extended Cut DLC?
Though we remain committed and are proud of the artistic choices we made in the main game, we are aware that there are some fans who would like more closure to Mass Effect 3. The goal of the DLC is not to provide a new ending to the game, rather to offer fans additional context and answers to the end of Commander Shepard's story.



Say have you people ever heard the saying "Pride goes before the fall"? To be fair, the journey was an absolute rush, and I appriciate all the hard work and effort that went into the ME games, but why crush out the single candle with a frickin, sledge hammer.

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.

I find this somewhat confusing. You say you appreciate the passion and listen to the feedback delivered to you by your fans, but in that same statement you say, that you WILL NOT provide any new endings to the game. Saddly what most of us want is the very thing you are refusing to give us. You flat out refuse to give us a true victory for our Shepard. You then, want to try and placate us with some extra prologe and cut scenes, that are ment to provide "closure", but unless it really gives, we the fans, the feeling that you really did "listen and respond" to this serious break with our trust (and I now refer to the public statement made by a representative of BW /EA that there would be many more endings to this story than there are) you WILL lose alot of fans like myself.


Be good to each other and Summer is coming...

In closing, I will reserve further judgment on your refusal to provide the endings we would all like to see until I have seen the new content provided by this DLC.
