April joke?
Lets just wait for the 6.April and listen to what the responsible persons have to say.
Wait to Pax and riot then.

..I don't want a new ending, so I'm good.
I want a continuation of the current ending.
Um, at least as long as Indoctrination Theory is right
Same here, they don't actually have to change anything, just continue.
The article says there will be no "alternative" end or "no different end", so I'm still hoping.
What I really do NOT want is a DLC that includes a little text that "explains" the starchild and your choices, I want to actually PLAY a DLC that takes place after the ending - or at least dialogue with your squaddies/ LI.

Hudson has said there is no new ending. They are clarifying and explaining the ending to those that didn't understand it.
Everyone understands it. Perhaps Bioware thought they could get away with making the ending nonsensical but unfortunately that didn't work out for them when people started tearing every single aspect of the ending apart.
Current ending is a huge failure, clarification isn't going to save it.

Good.
BioWare could quite easily address all reasonable complaints over the ending with simple clarifications. If they explain why the relays blowing up didn't kill everyone, if they explain how the fleet stranded on Earth managed to exist happily, if they explain the Normandy scene... there is little else for you people to be upset over.
Of course, this is just further evidence that you people want a happier ending.

They don't have any real (read: monetary) reason to make a DLC that changes or improves the ending. They made their money from you from buying the game, whether you liked it or not has nothing to do with it.
So depressing.
Lets see how well the tune sounds when Dragon Age 3 comes around and game catches the fallout of this - because their brand loyalty is shot to all holy hell.
Dragon Dogma and The Witcher 2 are looking mighty good right now.
Their fanbase is just fine, they don't have to worry about anything. The amount of people who "will never buy BW again" are a very small number out of the big fanbase.
Well, most of their "Big" Fanbase are dribbling morons in it for the shootey-booms. So when Mass Effect 4: Return of the Battlefield of Duty 9 comes out in 8 months, there won't be any actual Bioware fans left, just EA fans who just want good 'splosions.

Pick control, and then you can imagine that Shepard eventually ended up agreeing with the Catalyst (that organics and synthetics cannot exist peacefully) and continued the cycle of exctinctions.

Oh well, I guess I'll wait and see - and IF this "clarification" is a free DLC, I'll play it in the hopes that they'll somehow manage, against all odds, to make the ending acceptable without scrapping elements of it. If they can't do that, and won't do a more thorough change, I'll not be spending money on any other DLCs for the game either.

There is nothing inherently wrong with the term. Some of us live in more historically progressive societies than the USA.

Deep down inside I knew they wouldn't listen, it's all PR stunts. Giving away the cupcakes, Dr. Ray's message, introducing us to the writers blogs, etc. At least Patrick Weekes has the nerve to post with honest opinion on the Penny Arcade forums before BioWare made him delete it.
The people have spoken BioWare, we want a better ending. One that doesn't end in critical failure of the mission. Just deliver us a better ending, even if it takes year we'll wait.

It's a game of taking position on an ad hoc basis. So their position on an ending could happen just as well as all the other positions that was abandoned in the past. But I think it will require that is is the only option.
I'm beginning to lose fait in EA/Bioware looking at this objectively. Because there is a business opertunity here in a ending DLC. But they have to do it right - and they need to come out clean about the plans soon. Right now people are just starting to walk off disappointed which is not what you want your customers to be doing in any scenario.
They need to issue a short official statements saying that they have listened and that there will be extra DLC post-game content for purchase. This will add clarification and enhanced options for an even more customized gaming experience in the end scene. Throw in an epilogue and there's a winner. It would not have to be very long and the price pr. content hour would be through the roof. I believe that fans would be forgiving as regards to the time frame. It is the lack of a clear statement that is missing that this point.

The amount of anger directed at bioware is quite interesting. As is their response. The statement that any personal attacks and such would be responded to with instant bans does tell that Bioware seems to be taking an odd position where rather than considering fan feedback they are trying to stomp down on it.
Where have you been? The forum's chock-full of uncensored fan 'feedback'. Nothing's been censored. Everything has been reiterated to death.
