Looking at leaked script, it seems like they were also planning (in
early stages at least) to have an UI (user interface) where we would be
assigning our War Assets during the battle, Suicide Mission-style:

You have GOT to be kidding me.

Our old squadmates and all the War Assets were supposed to actually take part in the final battle?  AND THIS WAS CUT?  I just... what?!  

Alongside the bad writing and plot holes the ending gave us, this was my biggest issue.  I really, really, really hope this gets implemented.  It won't substitute a retcon for Starkid but it'd make me a happy camper again.

Indeed.

However i belive them when they say that this wasn't "cut", it was never really implemented (i mean, they prepared all this for the actual implementation, but since it was all rushed they've never actually  implemented it), which is still a shame.

I couldn't agree more.

Not only did they cut us seeing our squadmates/war assets in action but ON TOP OF THAT they remove us directing and allocating them, thus giving us more control and autonomy in the game? That would have gone a long way to make the ending more engaging.

Sigh.

Oh, this makes me sad. Look away. Look. Away.

Lawlz at Jabob's "PUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH." Sounded like he was urging Brynn through child-labor.

[tobiasks]

This makes me really sad.

Here's the Geth Prime dialogue. For those who wished to hear it.

I'm pissed that we didn't see Geth orbital drops.

[Icinix]

So much awesome that they ditched for what?

All of this just screams they ran out of time and resources to do the ending they wanted to do, artistic integrity my backside.

Sounds like he is having rough sex (Jacob)

WIN!

[Mojenator12345]

Honestly, at this point I might rather have closure with respect to WTF happened with BioWare and ME3 than closure for the game... BW used to be money. Sad to see this happen.

[Sulious Vandomar]

The fact we didn't get this in the finale is a travesty. I just can't see them cutting all this unless they were pressed for time/money by EA.

Artistic integrity my ass. No way they just cut this. If they did, then I even less faith in them as storytellers.

Ok, if the EC DLC doesn't have any of this, I'm done.

edit:  just heard the Jacob dialogue.  Much funnier if you've been taking Lamaze classes with your wife...<_<

And since no one posted it:

"We record a *lot* of extra VO. We don't use all of it, and by not using something- it doesn't mean there was content attached to it to cut."

I don't get it. I mean okay recording extra VO is a sound plan but why would you want to include it in the final product if it's not going to be used at all?

And did they really think we won't find these tidbits hidden in the data?

His statement doesn't even really make sense. Obviously if they wrote and recorded the VO that means at some point the decision was made not to include a.k.a it was cut.

A lot of this makes sense when you take into account what we were told.

Developers actually think we don't care about the story. They think we just want to do (in this case) a series of cover fights and that constitutes fun. Its the exact opposite for me, the fights are what I have to get through to get to the story.

Knowing that, though, it begins to make sense why so much stuff we might think is good is cut out.

Also, some of the jack commentary is said during the fights on the school you rescue her from.

Yeah but the entire point of Mass Effect, from it's inception, was that it was supposed to prove that gamers do care about story and that great stories can be told in the video game medium. And then it's like they just abandoned that which is why it hurts so bad. 

I mean bioware has ALWAYS been about their stories until the last few years.

[ahandsomeshark]

So things I know demand in the EC

Grunt riding a dinosaur
Geth and Quarian troops fighting side by side
Jack and her kids
Grunt and Zaeed taking down a reaper dreadnought by themselves (okay maybe not but how about Grunt and Zaeed taking down a brute)

[Chinirojo]

Oh c'mon! unbelievable!... really?
Who was the 'enlightened mind' who decided to cut this off? (you must diiiiie!)

PS. I want it, and I want it for yesterday!

[zambingo]

Wow. This is some neat stuff. What a shame it was all cut.

[Oscar_Hermina]

This is a video of the Geth Prime standing in Tali's place in the Priority:Earth mission if she dies and you side with the geth. He has some of the lines present in the video above.

and this one is with Admiral Raan:

I want to know what the meeting about this stuff went like.

"Well, when it comes down to it the game doesn't need stuff like this. It's not like anyone cares."

Just another handful of proof that the ending was rushed and butchered due to time constraints

Wait! There must be a Rachni Queen talk.... must.... see.... this....

And hopefully this EC will ACTUALLY give us something with our LI's. Agreed?
