Can someone explain to me HOW this is going to get the developers to see and better understand our frustration with the endings?


Well for me it summarizes my feelings. :-) I am not in the camp "I wont buy anything from Bioware ever again bla bla bla..." I still like their games I still apreciate the effort they put into them and want to show them my support but at the same time there are some things I dont like (right now the ME3 ending overshadows everything else). Sending them cupcakes with this not-so-hidden message does show exactly that imo :-P

To those who think this action is premature - it certainly is not. I for one think its an awesome thing to do!

A good sense of humor, humility and direction - and off we go. Argue all you want, but this will bring us closer to our ultimate goal :) And if not, its still awesome :D

Hold the line, and relax a bit. Its not a crime to have some fun along the way ;)

It probably won't, but it's just too hilarious an opportunity to pass up.

Basically, it's our way of saying "Listen Bioware, we hate the endings, but we love you, so have some cupcakes and think on it".


This.

(Man, we should have asked for star sprinkles on top!)

NO!!!! We should have paid more attention to the Delivery Boy aspect of the 3-ending cupcakes!!!


Are you referring to your Fornax cosplay again? I doubt the delivery boy will be enthousiastic about that one.. :?

If there is one thing we can learn from this thread all mods and devs at BioWare love cupcakes lol.

Before people get a little too freaky with their enthusiasm, I hope people realize that none of this is, in any way, shape or form, required to get us to listen to you. Nor can we be bribed to make things go your way. And finally, no matter what happens, we still love our community.

That said, if this comes to pass (after all, nothing is guaranteed), i will dedicate my cupcake to those who said I should get more than one cupcake.

Cheers!

What an awesome idea! I'm sorry I missed the opportunity to contribute.

I'll definitely chip in for a Marauder Shields cake if it happens.

I thought of sending cookies, but thought Bioware might think I poisoned them or something.

Hey, The Razman. Please take it down a notch. What people choose to do with their own money is their own business... unless you want people going over your finances and castigating you for daring to purchase lunch instead of donating to a homeless shelter.



Stanley should get at least TWO cupcakes!


For putting up with us? The guy deserves his own box.

Seconded. The board has been a terrifying place to moderate ever since this started. Here's to you Stanley!

<3 you Stanley. You are amazing.

And you deserve trucks of cupcakes for putting up with everyone.

My real life LI has informed me that I can no longer make promises to BioWare or the community in relation to any involvement in Fornax cosplay as a special reward to the developers.

what this would say to me if I ran BioWare is these people have money to burn so why not strike while the iron is hot and announce some ending DLC and get some of that money in BioWare's pocket? At this point, I think most of us would be willing to buy the endings we were promised....i.e. ones where our decisions actually mattered.

What is the downside? People might demand different endings in the future? please, they are doing that now and it hasn't even happened yet.

You are wasting opportunity for profit here BioWare......not to mention winning back some of your fanbase.

Pretty sure you'll be seeing some cupcakes, the order is already in... Now whether you get a peice of Marauder Shields cake is still up to debate. :)

Hope it tastes great! (I hear the red one actually IS a different flavour - go for that one)

Aesieru, please go make a thread in the general forum about distrust and betrayal and all of that. That is not what this thread is for.


I am fully within my rights to argue and debate the logic of this without castigating you for how you spend your money.

Do this WHEN BioWare apologizes, NOT BEFORE.


Then do it in a thread that doesn't cater to our deliveries of cupcakes to BioWare, please. This is something we want to do, you don't want to be a part of it. That's fine. Now go gently caress yourself, and do it somewhere where we won't have to read about it. Please.

There's two different reasons people seem to be opposed to it. Some feel it's "rewarding" them for failure (which I consider silly ... a nice gesture from fans would encourage Bioware to listen. And in my opinion they already listen anyway, more than most developers).

Some others, like me, feel it's extremely disheartening to see the positive energy from the Retake movement diverted from charitable causes towards (what we can all hopefully respectful agree is) a frivilous activity such as sending cupcakes. It's people's choice what they do with they money, obviously. But the money is being generated from the energy surrounding the fanbase right now, and I liked seeing it go towards good causes. This feels like a diversion away from that.

But that's just my opinion. Carry on with the cupcake drive, hope it goes well.

I think we all know that but good clarification for those who do not. Regardless of what happens it would be hilarious if some upcoming game gave us an easter egg about this. That being said sending cupcakes can't hurt our chances either ;)

nicely worded and I hope everyone who is part of this cupcake movement knows nothing is guaranteed. That said, I'm glad to see at the very least people are being more positive on these forums
