Lame. I assume that means we're not going back through the Omega 4 relay. Story potential and adventure wasted.

There is still the possibility of you going through the Omega 4 Relay as per the Invasion comic Cerberus has a base on the otherside.

You just wont be going through it for the Collectors as you know, they're all dead on that side of the Relay anyway. So GG on crying about nothing.

You know man, you don't have to be a total **** to everyone here. 

I believe adding the Collectors could be a big narrative opportunity. I believe that they will not be making an appearance (until further information is released). It's a shame. I was looking forward to the possibility of the Collectors having some type of unfinished business in the ME universe.

Interesting. It would've been nice to begin fighting Cerberus/Merc troops and have the Reapers show up via the Collectors, perhaps a Harby taunt or two, and having to make a choice to side with Aria or the Cerberus guys to ward off the Collectors. But alas, 'tis all a dream.

Just like everyone in this thread being a massive dick to Bioware?

But why would we side with Cerberus after what we knew about them in ME3?

Too bad there will not be Collectors in Omega DLC. More variety in enemy types is always a good thing.

And it's not like the game lore would be butchered by adding Collectors, not necessarily. According to official wiki, collectors existed since the closing years of previous cycle 50,000 years ago. Yes, Shepard defeated them in ME2 but it's hard to believe that he exterminated every single one of them from the face of the galaxy. Omega 4 Relay is nearby so it was only logical to assume that may be, just MAYBE they'll be introduced in Omega DLC just for the sake of teeny-tiny little bit more variety...

Also do we know for sure that the whole DLC will take place ONLY on the station itself and absolutely nowhere else?

Hopefully the reapers will take Collectors place in that scenario. Or at the very least the plot allows for some means for us to choose to side with Petrovsky or Aria.

Meh as long as the story is good and the DLC is twice as long as anything ME to date, I'll still drop some cold hard cash for this! I don't really see why Collectors are all that big a deal....... Is it because people miss them?

Well I could see us going through the Omega 4 Relay and destroying the Cerberus Base there, but it would have a nice twist if the Collectors already took control of the base

Regardless of your opinion on Bioware, it was a PR blunder to instead say what will not be coming back (after the Collectors are brought back and hyped up in MP) and raise the price (without giving any justification other than "it's big").


BW has been making many PR blunders lately, especially over the last several months. And there is a consistent shift in quality between SP and MP, including their DLC's. MP has been consistently entertaining, SP hasn't.

Given the existing characterisation has shown Petrovsky to be reasonable, why wouldn't it be possible to side with him and his troops if they offered to defect and offer assistance.

That's actually pretty good news, assuming you care about the importance of Mass Effect 2.

How is it good news when its common sense that every Collector wasn't on the base

It's pretty good news since ME 2 has been retconned enough with TIM getting the Collector Base no matter what you did with it.

[macrocarl]

To be fair, BW never said Collectors would be in the upcoming DLC. That's what this forum assumed. And having them show up in MP is a different thing entirely. MP needed some new bad guys so lore-wise, Collectors were the obvious choice. We really have no one but ourselves to blame.
As for the price tag on this upcoming DLC, if they say it's almost twice as big as previous DLC then $15 is pretty reasonable for that amount of content. Also, we don't even know what all the content entails yet. I'm not sure why everyone is in such an uproar?

Price increase was strike one.

This is strike 2.

Consdering about half of those characters are dead, yeah, that's what it needs, moar retcon...

[Eterna]

Honestly this may be a good thing. They're trying to tell a story about Omega and Cerberus, having random enemies come in for contrived reasons serves only to dilute the story.

I'd rather they focus on one arc and make it great.

BW is just trolling us.
Tell me they´re just trolling us!

I really hope they're just trolling us........why would they put so many resources into a new enemy faction to not put it in single player? That seems very unintelligent.....if they aren't in this one hopefull they'll be in a different one.

How are half of these characters dead? Only three or four could possibly be dead. And I don't know anyone who got Patriarch and Zaeed killed.

Meh, don't care either way.

[OdanUrr]

I could be wrong but Bioware never said there would be Collectors in SP to begin with.
