They're working on multiplayer DLC and prioritising it over the EC. Seriously.


SP and MP are seperate divisions.

Don't be an idiot.


Stupidity and Deniability should be a commercial trade item.

Two leaks may spring for each one they address. Gonna be awhile.

The part I find interesting about this "extended" ending is how they'll resolve any need for voices. I really doubt they'd call voice actors back in to voice new scenes. So we're left to two possibilities:

1. They have a lot of "cut" material they can work with in order to elaborate on the endings
2. All the scenes they've planned to use as "elaborations" are in the same style as the current endings where they are set to music and no one says anything.


A few of the VAs of the main squad have commented on coming back to do additional VO work.

I really don't care if they're separate divisions. They shouldn't be. ME3 is one game; primarily a single-player game .. with a shallow and tacked on multiplayer mode .. and furthermore, it's an incomplete single player game that should be completed before more meaningless MP content is tacked on.

Separate divisions can be reassigned, idiot.

Yeah....you know there are separate teams working on the MP and SP content, right?


Not to mention the MP DLC's r couple of maps, and some characters and guns. No way it takes as much development time and resources as single player content.. :/

imo the endings werent great nor horibble just confusing really

Agree. There IS potential in their ending concepts, but it was horribly presented/executed. If EC fixes that, I think great majority of fans will be happy.


Considering they won't remvoe anything, no way they can fix how are this endings presented.


I mean shooting a part of of Crucible to activate it to destroy Reapers?

Throwing yourself into Crucible beam to make everyone a borg?

Space magic of Synthesis?

Forcing everyone to be borg?

Making synthetics part organics by adding DNA?

Normandy escaping with entire crew?




That can not be fixed since by themselves are a huge problem.
They have to either completely change it or remove it.



So endings will still suck, just EC will attempt to make us decide will we deal with it and still find there's point of anything with Mass Effect.


Completely agree.

I'm wondering what the EC will actually cover. Other than that, they can take all the time they need. There's no need for it to be rushed; I want them to do a good job, regardless if I will be satisfied by it or not.

Seperate divisions that are under orders to do something that was already planned.

Just stop.

One still has to wonder if the process would be accelerated by consolidating the MP and SP teams.

It takes time to make and test even cut scenes. Additionally, if they need additional voice actor work to be done, they need to wait for that actor/actress to be available to record and whatnot.

I think people are misunderstanding the OP's post he wants them to take their time, the silence is deafening thought.


That's what annoys people right now.

People want to know if Bioware is taking their time with the EC or not.

It depends on how much time their publisher is willing to give them. But I agree.

I was saying in another thread something that kind of ties the MP/SP side together:

Bioware's definition of foreshadowing;

Put all the hints into Day 1 DLC.

Make the DLC available for free only to Collector's Edition buyers.

Give *everyone* an incomplete game.


Then EA's contribution: Prevent customers of GAME from getting collectors editions. Steal candy from baby. Twirl moustache.

[smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/lol.png[/smilie]
Then
-Add multiplayer
-Make it so that people who want to "win" the game are required to play multi player.
-Sell weapons to people who can't be arsed playing properly.
-Keep multiplayer events going, slowly mapping out the real conflict.
-Eventually
get to earth multiplayer event, announce new ending DLC at conclusion
of multiplayer event to vaugely tie it into the plot.
-Sell even more weapons to people who can't be arsed playing properly.
-Release DLC
-Get massive press coverage for surprise ending.
-Critical praise, ship another few hundred thousand copies, sell even more weapons to people who are new or just plain suck.
-Build new east wing for golden money-palace.

Sorted.


Thoughts?

This. ;)

I also don't need BW holding my hand while I wait; they'll give us more information when it's available and not before.

They did say a summer release and its not even so much as June yet. E3 will might throw out a release date and little else. After all it is ending content, they can't exactly give anything away without it being a major spoiler. I don't mind them taking their time. If it means a better ending or at least a more tolerable one then it'll be worth it.

Hopefully...

It probably needs to spend a few months sitting on Sony and Microsoft's desks.

Thing is, Bioware is EA.

So, there's no contract where Bioware has to make that game to EA due to that.


In other words, they could have get more time if they wanted.

Founders of Bioware are one of the EA VIP's.
If they gave an actual damn in making good games instead of money, they would have done it.

Same story for Casey and Walters since they are also one of the top dogs and yet didn't bother and rushed the game with all this false marketing.

Oh my God this.

When we hear about the inevitable "battle of earth" multiplayer event, THEN get excited about imminent extended cut.
For now, shhhh.
