I refuse to even step on that crap smearing site known as the escapist, but I'll take your word as truth, and ask further, what is going to come of this if anything?

Oh great, now tell me how you plan for an American governmental institution to fine a Canadian branch of a company for claims it made. Also, who you plan to send into the 5 to 8 year waiting period of getting the case to court, and to than convince the judge to not throw the case out, all while raking up large amounts of legal fees, and hoping to god EA doesn't drag the process out an additional 20 years.
EDIT: so it's just the same BBB story as the other, well isn't that just great, all you have to do is replace the term "govermental institution" with "grop who actually have no power at all in this matter" and it all still makes sense.

Bioware didn't say they had to overt choices. The reality is that all of the choices YOU made did factor in to the choice YOU made at the end. Fulfilling Bioware's promises via prophecy.
For example, I expect there is an extremely strong correlation between playing paragon/renegade and the decision chosen at the end, that means that all the choices you made did make a difference to your ending.
The argument that it didn't is fallacious.

An American court can't impose anything on a Canadian Branch. They can impose it on the American version of the branch but all EA would have to do is shut down that branch and they are free to continue to ignore it. Jurisdiction is very important on things like this.EternalAmbiguity wrote...

No ****e, people don't understand the court system and big corps.
Edit: curses, I'd hoped to get that past. Oh well. Point still stands.

If you're arguing that the decisions a person makes make a difference in their own mind? Then yes, you're correct.
If you're arguing the decisions made over the course of 3 games have a tangible impact on the conclusion of the third? You're wrong.
Sorry =(

There's where I first spotted the story. To all the people deriding the FTC complaints: HAH.
In all seriousness though, this is a pretty big step. Having *anyone* officially state promises were made and broken regarding the nature of the game by Bioware is a win for Retake/Line Holders.

For example NCSoft and Tera.

The second that Bioware demonstrates that past decisions affect War Assets and thus the EMS, which -does- have a tangible effect on the results of the final decision, the complaint is out the door from a legal standpoint.
You may not like it, but it's the truth.
Advertising Review
BBB has nothing to report concerning Bioware Corp's advertising at this time.

Not for those who dont play MP. We were promised that we would be able to get the best possible ending without MP, which has been shown to be false.
So, in essence, past decisions end up not having any impact on EMS or War Assets, because no matter what we do, we cannot receive the ending we were promised.
You may not like it, but its the truth. Bioware did not deliver on what they promised.

You can using that APP thing and that other game. Which isn't MP... but yeah it still sucks but MP isn't the only way to get your EMS up...
