Operation: HEARTBREAKER (Feb 15th-17th)

Event Description: The number of Banshees on the battlefield has suddenly increased. We believe the Reapers are improving their means of creation, and we need to recover as many Banshee bodies as possible for analysis. Use cautious tactics – and try not to get your heart ripped out.

Individual Goal: Earn 20,000 points killing Banshees.
New operation is up.

Obviously V-Day related... But how could they be improving their means of creation? There's only so many Ardat-Yaksi around...

Maybe they've found a way to make them from regular asari. 

[Jadebaby]

I like it, I really do... Samara said in ME2 that a lot of Asari have the potential in them to be Ardat Yakshi but only very few of them actually are.. So maybe the Reapers have found a way to bring that gene out in them when they indoctrinate/dragon's teeth them....

Regardless of this, having Banshees related to V-Day is kind of creepy.

Just read the theory. It is interesting and has lots of potential.

But implementation of such a theory would require higher mental functioning from Bioware. And I just don't think they're this smart.

Good stuff tho.

If you’ve been playing a lot of multiplayer since the release of Mass
Effect 3: Retaliation, chances are that you’ve already gotten yourself a
sizeable collection of in-game banners. As proud of those
accomplishments as you are, have you ever thought about how cool it
would be to create a banner of your own? Well, wonder no more!
How would you like to create a multiplayer banner and have your
design featured in Mass Effect 3? If the answer to that question is,
“yes,” then here are a few details that you’ll need to get started:
IMPORTANT: Before participating in the Mass Effect 3 Community Art Contest, please read the Official Contest Rules.  You will have to acknowledge and accept these rules when you email your submission. 

• The contest begins on February 15, 2013 at 12PM GMT, and submissions will be accepted until February 22, 2013 at 6PM GMT.
• Pick your favorite Mass Effect 3 multiplayer challenge and use that
  as the inspiration for your own design. If obtaining N7 Mastery was your
  crowning achievement, create a banner that you feel best captures that
  pride.  Please note that weekend operation challenges do not apply for
  this contest.
• Multiplayer banners are should be 512 pixels x 128 pixels. Click here to download our banner template. Please submit in .jpg .bmp, .gif, .psd, or .png file format only.
• Email your submissions along with your full name, birthdate, country
  and the name of the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer challenge that inspired
  your artwork to community@bioware.com. 
  All email submissions must also include an active acknowledgement and
  acceptance of the contest rules with the statement “I have read and
  accept the Mass Effect 3 Community Art Contest Official Rules.”  No
  exceptions.
• All submissions will be voted on by the BioWare team from February
  22, 2013 12PM GMT to February 26, 2013 at 6PM GMT.  Each submission will
  be based on creativity, originality, and accuracy to the Mass Effect 3
  challenge it was inspired by.   BioWare will select 5 winners and
  include their artwork in-game as a multiplayer banner.

Looking for inspiration? Look no further than the existing banners
that have been awarded in multiplayer.  The volus have always had a
natural affinity for biotics.  Think you can create something better for
the Biotic Mastery Challenge, then submit your design to us!
Just saw this on the ME3 website. Is it possible that this indicates that the MP dlc will be up before the SP one, or am I just reading too much into this?

[Jadebaby]

You're reading too much into it. I wish I had photoshop so I could submit one...

I only have MSpaint, I hardly doubt that would be sufficient enough to create a banner to compete with all the other wizards that would be applying...

Alas, I just hope someone creates a femshep one.

To make this a bit more on-topic however, this doesn't have any affect on the MP timeline what so ever...

I am doing a survey on the first playthrough choice, your age and sex.

No solid DLC news yet?

[TheConstantOne]

I'm actually just stopping in to give props to Jade. I usually don't post much on the forums; only when I feel that I have an idea to contribute.

But out of the many threads I've peeked into, Jade always seems to have a very positive outlook and pleasant online demeanor. I find that admirable considering that this is the internet and toxic comments more often than not suppress good ideas/comments.

So excellent job at staying consistently pleasant Jade. I'm pretty well aware of what Puzzle Theory entails, having frequented the old IT threads. Hopefully this upcoming dlc will validate some (or all) of it. I'm looking forward to finding out how Shepard's journey ends

Soon, perhaps tomorrow.

It will be ready when it is ready.

[Jadebaby]

@Neverwinter_Knight77, seeing as though it's getting towards the end of the week, I would say that we wont hear anything until next week sometime. I'm predicting early next week, but that's just a guess.

@Restrider, I took the poll, but please don't spam the thread if you don't have anything to contribute. Being a survey on refuse however, I see how it's appropriate to post it here.

@TheConstantOne, wow.. Thank you so much! There's hate and anger in all areas of life, not just the internet. But if you let that get to you it will consume you. Best to just filter it and do what you can to just be yourself. It also helps that I can sympathize with a lot of them, because they are hurt at how ME changed in the 3rd game.
Despite your praise, I do ask a request that you actually read the OP. I know it's long (and needs a better tl;dr lol) but it really is pretty fleshed out and is also quite different from IT. The meat of the theory isn't that large, it just looks big because there's a lot of evidence, speculations and other jargon towards the bottom of the post.

Nevertheless, thank you for your kind words and hopefully BSN will be a bit more positive soon

They say that parting is such sweet sorrow, but as we near the end of
the Mass Effect 3 adventure, we’re giving fans a fitting send-off in
the form of two final pieces of DLC.

Mass Effect 3: Citadel – Single Player DLC
When a sinister conspiracy targets Commander Shepard, you and your
team must uncover the truth, through battles and intrigue that range
from the glamour of the Citadel’s Wards to the top-secret Council
Archives.  Uncover the truth and fight alongside your squad – as well as
the cast from the original Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2, including
Urdnot Wrex!
When the adventure is over, reconnect with your favorite characters
from the Mass Effect Trilogy, try your luck at the Citadel’s Silver
Coast Casino, blow off steam in the Armax Combat Arena, or explore and
furnish Shepard’s own living quarters on the Citadel. With unique
content and cinematics featuring your friends and romance interests in
the Mass Effect trilogy, Mass Effect 3: Citadel offers one final chance
to see the characters you have known for years and rekindle romances.
Mass Effect 3: Citadel will release worldwide on March 5th on Xbox 360, PC and PS3 (on March 6th on PS3 in Europe). Price: $14.99, 1200MS points and 1200 BW points.

Mass Effect 3: Reckoning – Multiplayer DLC
Prepare for the Reckoning!  Newfound allies join the multiplayer war
for survival in Mass Effect 3: Reckoning.  The Geth Juggernaut, Female
Turian Raptor, Talon Mercenary, Alliance Infiltration Unit, and more
take up arms to stop the Reaper threat.  Smash your enemies with the
Biotic Hammer as you lay waste to the battlefield as the Krogan Warlord.
Wield 7 new weapons for multiplayer, including the Geth Spitfire
Assault Rifle, Venom Shotgun, Lancer Assault Rifle, and amplify your
arsenal with new equipment and weapon mods featuring the Geth Scanner
and Assault Rifle Omni-blade.

February 26th on Xbox 360, PC and PlayStation 3 (February 27th on PlayStation 3 in Europe).
Announced the next dlcs

Well, so much for this one.

Still waiting for reaction from those who subscribed to the indoctrination interpretation (my guess is that they'll find some way to hang on, even now).

[Neverwinter_Knight77]

Biotic hammer... another vanguard or adept, I wonder. Anyway, I won't lie. The Citadel DLC looks kind of interesting, but I'll wait and gauge others' impressions before I decide.

If I do buy, I might have a couple of problems...

1. My Microsoft Points balance is at 480 because I spent some of what I had been saving up for "ending DLC" (I got tired of waiting, so I spent what I had saved).

2. My Xbox 360's hard drive was only 10 GB to begin with, and there's only 1 gig left.  Could be... *inhale* problematic.

Yes, oh well.. It was fun...

I guess with the IT, it depends what "conspiracy" is targetting Shepard.

I'd like to know what other Puzzle Theorists think of this next dlc.

[devSin]

I think one of the indoctrination guys said a lot of them were going to walk out if this wasn't Shepard's "wake up" DLC, but I'm honestly pretty skeptical that they won't just keep on believing, finding more ways to try to make the game fit their interpretation.

But with the thread being locked and the discussion of it banned from the forums, there's not really any opportunity to get their opinions on it. I've been curious for nearly a year now what they were going to do when no proof of their belief ever came, and now I may never get to find out.

Someone should drop The Twilight God a line. He's got the only IT version that's still viable.

[shepskisaac]

I still had some good discussions in this thread Anyway, Jade has a healthy approach to the entire thing so regardless how it ends up, it won't be a drama like in IT camp ;P

[XXIceColdXX]

Whether they get wake up DLC or not, IT is still a valid interpretation of the ending. That hasn't changed.

As for Puzzle although doesn't look good, I enjoyed the hope it gave me that there may be something better coming. Shame it looks like it isn't happening.

You can, visit their new forums and ask them...

Don't worry. I spent about 5 years getting over incomplete KOTOR 2 ending lol, I know something abbout wishing for things to go 'my' way ;P (in this case, it was "plz plz LucasArts/Obsidian, finish KOTOR 2 aendign pleaaaaassseee please Team Gizka finish restoration mod") etc lol.  Thankfully, I'm over it now xD I just well, accept KOTOR 2 ending for what it is and focus on the rest (and there's sooooo much amesomness in KOTOR 2's "rest", incredible story,writing, characters, Kreia!!! <333)

No matter what happens this was a great idea Jade. I'm still foolishly holding out hope for an added still image or something else to pop up during the end though In my desperation I even had an idea that this DLC could have shi'ira predicting your future again as a loophole. Ah well 12 days to go.
