Bioware lied before so I hope they are lying now with that

Lol. That's such a laughable answer. So 'no comment' basically means, 'absolutely not'.

Just stop. You don't know and are just making conjectures from a vaguely written press release. IT DOES NOT TAKE 3 MONTHS TO DO NOTHING BUT CINEMATICS. So unless they're just sitting with their thumbs up their a**es which I know some of you probably think they are, the EC will be substantial and most likely WILL contain gameplay.

LOTSB was ME2's lengthiest and meatiest DLC. It took approximately 2 1/2 months to develop. Its already been 2 1/2 months since they began production on the EC, according to Gamble. So unless they plan on having like 3 hours worth of cinematics, there will be gameplay.

Did I rustle your jimmies?

Calm the f**k down.

I'm perfectly calm. I just don't appreciate people spreading misinformation as if its fact.

Doesn't that work both ways?  You're speculating it's gonna be great because of the time it's taking to develop.  Well there could be business/marketing reasons for that.  Other's are speculating because of the additional cinematics to clarify comment.  Each can argue until they're the color of little blue babies, but none can offer anything more than speculation and opinion.

Merizan said it won't have gameplay? Really? Huh.

I guess the last one of these just never happened then.

Its ridiculous to think the EC will just be cinematics. It does not take 3 or more months to craft some cinematic scenes. Entire DLCs for ME2 were made in just 2 months, and the team was split up then. The entire team is working on the EC now. So, all these assumptions are baseless.

As I said, it does not take this long to create some cutscenes. There will be some form of gameplay. I gaurantee it. Its pretty obvious at this point, actually.

FALSE as a CGI guy at a tech college i say FALSE. 20 minutes of cinematic cutscenes could take somewhere between 2-5 months based on amount of people working and talent of the people.

TRUE as a semi professional facebook and twitter guy as well as avid gamer i say TRUE. since bioware does not pre render any of their cutscenes, 2 - 5 months seems like a stretch........ unless there is gameplay.

However, if you look at the tea-leaves another way then you'll see they're adding "additional cinematics and epilogue scenes". I've emphasised the word 'and' to illustrate that epilogue scenes aren't cinematics. Well, what are they then? Gameplay scenes! 

Honestly that quote means nothing in the 'gameplay / no gameplay' debate.

I predict the EC will be massive. LOTSB was only in production for 2-3 months IIRC and is universally accepted as the best DLC in the ME series. By the time the EC is released, it will have been in production for much longer.

This is definitely evidence that the EC will have for 100% gameplay.

Yes, but it's a lot easier to create something new and awesome than it is to take something that is absolute sh!t and turn it into something half-way decent.

Weekes and Gamble probably spent the first month crying and banging their heads against the wall trying to figure out how to turn a steaming pile of sh!t into a gourmet meal.

Honestly, even if they can't do it, I'm not gonna blame them. They're trying to accomplish a seemingly impossible task. The cards are very much stacked against them.

Okay, this is something that irritates me when people post on the forums that THIS is evidence that BioWare is not adding gameplay to the ending. This is no evidence that they are adding JUST cinematics. This kind of implies the opposite. Derek doesn't say that there will just be cinematics. In fact, he says "additional cinematics AND epilogue scenes." This implies that OP is right, that there WILL be gameplay. Why would they have "additional cinematics" and "epilogue scenes" be two different things when they talk about it. Maybe, in April when they got the "sign off on it," they intended just to add cinematics, but I think they might have changed their mind when they saw a majority of the public wanted more than just gameplay. Personally, I think this whole thing was planned, all except the backlash, that there would be some sort of Extended Cut epilogue that expands/changes the ending.

And from the way Gamble's Tweet talked last night, EC might be entering QA, which means it might be getting very close to seeing the light of day...

[dorktainian]

its a shame ME3 didn't enter QA isnt it?

[Kanon777]

They used mp maps on singleplayer, and they are making a new mp dlc for earth. imo there is a good chance for more gameplay content for the last mission...

[xxskyshadowxx]

BioWare has stated that no additional gameplay will be added. They are expanding existing cut scenes only to add clarification and closure.

[Jonata]

There is the (bad) possibility that we are actually waiting for the Multiplayer content. If the DLC leak is true, then there's a massive Multiplayer DLC coming along with the EC, maybe the EC itself has been done in 1-2 months but they wanted to add a big amount of content for the "other players" and waited for the Multiplayer studios to finish their work.

And we're to believe Merizan about anything why? That said, I agree that it won't. They're polishing the turd, not adding to it.

[otreblA_SNAKE_ITA]

Gameplay? I hope so...everyone hopes so! Also Shepard hopes so!

Seriously, I do hope there will be more gameplay sequences...Come on mummy Bioware, we still trust you!

I'd be surprised if it doesn't have gameplay, TBH. They announced the EC back in early April. Now we're in mid-June, two and a half months later. It'd be hard for me to believe that after nearly 3 months, they're just going to give us a cut-scene, unless its a very long cut-scene or something.

[TurianFrigate]

If the EC will use the Indoc. theory then it will probably have gameplay.

[DamonD7]

I'm not expecting any gameplay. They've said it enough times now, I won't budge from that unless or until they come outright and say otherwise.

I'm also not a believer in Indoc theory, perhaps that plays a part in it.

[ohiocat110]

It doesn't take 4-5 months (April-August or September) to produce 10 minutes of cutscenes. I think it will include new or changed gameplay in the form of a rebuilt Priority: Earth, or continuing the game after StarKid (IT, dream, whatever).

[sparkyo42]

Something that people aren't taking into account comparing LOTSB to the EC is the fact that LOTSB was planned, I think I remember that the car scenes were something they'd been planning from the start of the game not just the DLC. EC came at them cold and after the team was finished.

The team would have had at least 2 weeks off after the release, even with the S***storm they're human and would need that time, Then they have to come in get a rough idea of what they want to do and how to do it then arrange everything and plan the development. LOTSB and EC aren't the same in terms of planning by a long shot.

I don't know what they plan, if it's just cutscenes they may make the assets more visible, make the God Child better, and whatever the after action stuff they might be thinking about if anything. If it's game play at best it will be to try and make Earth a better mission. But I don't see them getting to the point of LOTSB, that would be a massive admission of the complaints.

[Navasha]

I seriously doubt it will have gameplay. Did Shepard look in any condition to fight?

Imo they might add sidequests for Earth, jus like Tuchanka/Ranoch had sidequests before the main missions.
