Bit disappointed they switched to Frostbite. I like messing with the assets in UDK :/

Frostbite is sexy as hell though.

Per Montreal news: Montreal folks helped with a ton of ME2 and ME3. Now we (Edmonton) will support them similarly. Always a team effort.

Can't say where will end up. If on next Mass Effect, very happy. If not, know it's in good hands. For now, still making secret stuff. :)

How's the BF3 modding standing? Won't we be getting more modding possibilities with FB2 actually than UE3?

It is completely up to the developers on how much they lock the engine and if they release mod tools. It is also completely up to people who made the engine if mod tools are even allowed, and if not. It is up to the community to make them.

Frostbyte 2 is an incredibly complex next-gen engine that apparantly is extremely hard and a total unknown, games like BF3 have reportedly only used about 10% or so of it's expected ability.

So really, I doubt anyone will reverse engineer a total unknown complex next-gen engine and BF3 has no mod tools and likely never will.

My biggest fear about a new team would be no Weekes or Dombrow. :[ Hope they stick around!

Yeah, but no Mac Walters! :wizard:
Despite I love his characters, the guy is not very good with long stories, so I hope he is not writing it.

ME4 needs Weekes for the story, he should be the lead writer.

But Mac Walters ? Please no more, he made enough **** in ME3.

Apparently my question was taken the wrong way. I wasn't trying to be upset about frostbite, in fact i've played a lot of bf3.

I don't think it means mass effect is going to abandon its rpg element. Sorry for any confusion

This is all very interesting but how are they going to work on both the next ME game and the new IP? Are there seperate teams for those, hence moving ME to Montreal to make room for the new IP over at Edmonton? Either way, sounds like excitng times ahead and can't wait to see what Montreal puts out next. That blog entry was a total tease though, still have no idea what to expect.

Most likely there are separate teams working on each. I think there was a BW team in Texas and a team in London.

Yeah, there is a team down in Austin, TX. I think they're dealing with SWTOR right now with it going Free to Play.

From the way it's going, I doubt they will be working on that for much longer...

The frostbite engine is fantastic. A very good choice for a future Mass Effect game imo.

From what I've seen so far, UE4 would be even better. But I think the most important reason to switch from UE to Frostbite was the fact that the Frostbite 2 engine is being developed by DICE -- an EA subsidiary. Therefore, EA can cut costs by using its own engine for several games.

That, and, as far as I know, the UE4 engine isn't complete yet. The Frostbite 2 engine has been out long enough to have the worst faults patched out of it by now.

"In response to questions we’ve received, ME3 MP was very much a shared effort between Edmonton & Montreal"

Tad bit surprised by the lack of Omega news today, what with it being a fortnight exactly until its release. I suppose Omega's more spread-out news bits over the weeks are responsible for that.

Launch trailer in a week, I guess?

Well, in the past 3 weeks, there have been major releases (AC3, Halo4, CoD:BLOPS2) so maybe not show anything yet.

However, Mass Effect 3 for WiiU comes out at WiiU launch (Nov. 18th I think), so maybe wait for those people to experience it a bit first and then let them know about Omega coming out...


....I am grasping at straws here. :P

We should make something like this too.
If one of this guys shows up on the forum he/she should get a special treatment from the community.  (Pro-Anti-Enders likewise). 
Agreed?
