Well I’m sure EA higher up’s are making BW employees lives a living hell for this sh** storm especially when they want to sell us paid DLC and their new movie .So take comfort where you can find it .

While I do not usually get pleasure out of others having their lives a living hell, in this case you are quite correct that EA is most likely angry at this whole event.  It could have been avoided relatively easily but there is still a glimmer of hope in the fact that they COULD rectify this whole thing with one DLC.  Unfortunately the chances are slim at this point because of the "extended cut" dlc that most likely won't change much(we will see though).


Also this thread deserves a bump

Someone should bring these quotes up at PAX

[Canis_Major]

I loled at this one

“[The presence of the Rachni] has huge consequences in Mass Effect 3. Even just in the final battle with the Reapers.”

Still loling

[Liber320]

Was really hoping at least some of these would be adressed at PAX, but nope, they asked questions about facial expressions and Tali/Garrus romance...

Dude they were all planted by Bioware to ask those questions. They want to gloss it over and pretend all these lies never occured by scewing the focus over to things as mudane as those....

I also think some of the people calling the Retake movement "whiny" should take a long hard look at those quotes, and then decide if we are really so unreasonable as to claim "we have been miss sold the game"

[whoisthis98]

This is what gets me mad and i'm sure many others all those statements about how fans are writing this as well as them and then they say it's our artistic vision..... even though it was even changed last minute to save time/money. Or it won't be just a,b,c endings then it was exactly that. Then no one from bioware dares answer any question about why the flip flop, most likely out of fear of being terminated by EA. That's what pisses me off the most not the bad ending though that does too but them going back on their promises and then saying T.S. It is what it is.

Which means i can not trust them to make a product that i would enjoy and i have to take my business elsewhere.

[MaximizedAction]

this is bump worthy, until sufficiently addressed.

[darthoptimus003]

i hope bioware really looks at page 1 of this forum because this is why the vast majority is so upset because promise where made verbily its in mags, so its there for everyone to see, this is what we wanted to begin with, what was promised and i really really hope bw does fix this so they can restore the faith that has been lost because of this

[Xannerz]

My eye twitches when I look at those quotes. Their statements are so far from what we actually got.

You know, it won't be long before this thread gets locked. Bioware has gone on a locking spree, closing down threads that point out their mistakes.

So... yeah.

You clearly read all of the posts in this thread including the second one informing people to keep on topic, civil and to further the thread so it doesn't get locked. Woops!

I don't think it's fair to lock any threads like this.  If BioWare didn't want this discussed then they shouldn't have made these false claims.

I'm curious to see the response to the quotes, if there is even going to be one.

“[The presence of the Rachni] has huge consequences in Mass Effect 3. Even just in the final battle with the Reapers.”

Just...wow.

Same, but I doubt it. PAX was pretty much the last chance to adress them directly, afaik

Someone could try Twitter, but I don't see it being all that useful

I think this is probably one of the worst.  Its almost like they were advertising a different game entirely.  There was no "final battle with the reapers".  You got a very short cutscene with random ships as the "final battle".  Very misleading.  I preordered the CE because of promises like this.

[Velocithon]

This needs to be addressed.

They didn't slightly exaggerate and just give us really weak scenes or endings. They flat out lied and didn't do anything they said. Things weren't true even the slightest.

[shnellegaming]

At least they took down that sticky that states the single player game can be finished without playing the multiplayer game.  It used to be in the General Discussion forum but its gone now.  Now if they would only fix it so it CAN be played without the Multiplayer.  Though I can't finish it again anyway so doesn't matter much.

Bump this!

Don't hold your breath. They're just going to ignore it until it goes away. The most we'll probably get out of them is 'you guys are misconstruing what we said'. Perhaps they're planning to release 'The Developer Quotes: Extended Cut' to try and 'clarify' what they said. After all, even these lies must fall under the 'artistic integrity' jurisdiction right?

[mthomas45]

I mean, I don't really understand how they thought this was ok to say this stuff. Either they didn't know what the game was, or they had a different ending planned and they ran out of time/money so they had to scrap it. Either way, a lot of these comments were made after development was completed so there really isn't an excuse.

[Menalaos1971]

This topic is the ultimate issue with The Ending. We were clearly marketed one product, a product I was excited to buy, and then clearly sold a very different product, one that greatly disappointed.

[ed87]

I still find it weird how they said all those things to begin with. They either view their consumers as stupid, or they are a bit delusional about their product
