Udina Reference made me laugh. But like ingame i just can say: Shut up.

Honestly - free updates and regular new content - that is awesome, and not something you can expect in any Game nowadays.
I'm happy Bioware does this to ME3 MP - and you complain you don't get your "free ****" fast enough? Heck the whole Challengesystem was a great addition to keep people (me) interested or come back to the game. Thx Bioware.
If there was a gamebreaking bug, because of insufficient testing people would vomplain as well. Just remember that those that post and complain are less then those that play and enjoy the game.

ah "balance change tuesdays".
we have dismissed this claim.

[Asari Goddess]

Lol i could imagine what OP would do if today they don't do the balance changes xD

Many of the other listed things are fairly much a reiteration of themselves, and seems to be a little misleading considering that this IS simple substitution in most cases. I know that every tinkering can open a new can of worms, but with careful, considerate, professional people working on it, it really is not as complicated as you are making it out to be, IMO,....

All this shows is your ignorance of how things work.

O rly?

Really sad that BW even replies to such arrogant whiners who can't be pleased.. Way to send a message... :S

I will and can not imagine how it have to feel for them to read this pile of ****.

Lets take a new kit
 - Is it unlockable in store
 - Do the strings show up? Do they show up for all languages?
 - Do you get the correct number of unlocks for them?
 - Does their drop rate seem correct?
 - Is there a challenge for it?
 - Does the challenge have all the strings? Are they all translated?
 - Does it show up in the GUI?
 - Does it track progress correctly?
 - Does the challenge completing actually add to the gold level challenge?
 - Does it reset when the gold level is complete?
 - Do the people maintaining the n7hq know about the new kit?
 - Does the correct number of unlocks show up underneath?
 - Does the kit level corespond to the correct level on the website?
 - Does the power icons etc show up correctly?
 - Does the leveling of powers show up correctly?
 - Does the challenge show up properly?
 - Does the challenge track properly?

Still more but there is a good amount of things that can (and do) go wrong. Also add in the fact there are 3 platforms.

Summary: Things are almost always far more complex and difficult then they appear.  When dealing with even editing programs, many things can and will go wrong.  Often the result is unexpected, and the root of the problem ends up being in a seemingly unrelated area etc etc.
We do not know the industry, it is not for us to judge.  These people earn their pay, and have earned respect.

And because each week has been delayed, we're still getting the new stuff 7 days apart, so you're not really having to wait any longer, we still get a weekly new release. It's not like this week we're having to wait 8 or 9 days from the last kit.

[Zwapp]

Hardly a big deal, delays happen and patience is needed, at least we know they will come, and most likely within the week, that's more then what I can say for the problems with origin, but we can't blame bioware for that.


off topic, any chance we'll see more power overhauls like singularity, I loved that one and would probably love another overhaul, major or minor

@Bryan: Thanks for explaining the details :-)

@annoyed people: Hey, you're getting something for free here, with no definite announcement that it would be Tuesday. No reason to get angry. Disappointed: maybe, so deal with it.

[_sigge_]

People are upset that the changes aren't there every Tuesday? Internet is funny.

[TheAdventurer29]

Thanks for the replies bioware. No other developers would reply such extensively to their fans.

Still a poor excuse. Why? Because you're professionals. 

[White Flag]

Some people just can't be satisfied, ever. I for one do not really care when the balance changes go out. Sure, I'd prefer Tuesday, but I'm not at all bothered by the slight delay of one day. Hell, 2-3-4 days, it would not matter to me.

Professionals, not gods.  Risks are higher if they mess up than if they delay the changes for testing.
He mentioned the 11th, likely had off that day.
Furthermore, no contract binds them to Tuesday.  And as someone else pointed out, still 7 days between changes, so no real delay.  One will just be early when they do not have something odd happening in a week or so.

This week we had rememberance day on sunday, which (because it is a stat/public holiday) we were given monday off as a day in lieu.

So...jealous of the above, I live in stupid Netherlands where we DON'T have such a rule (and yes I am aware a lot of countries have these regulations). If Christmas falls on saturday and sunday then it's our problem, we won't get monday and tuesday off then, we don't get any replacement holidays. We don't even have as many public holidays compared to the rest of the world either, just nine, with two of them always on sundays...

Keep in mind last week we had N7 day stuff and the week before we had Halloween. Then Nov 11th came by lest we forget. Just sayin.

The 11th! That's why the balance changes are on wednesday. I could not figure that out! The teams here didn't get monday off so I guess in my mind no one got it off. Hope you guys enjoyed your three day weekend.

Y'know, it's threads like these that actually back up the overall sentiment of Bioware fans-- and gamers on the whole-- as being "entitled".


On behalf of the rest of us who aren't foaming at the mouth, Bioware developers, let me apologize. We appreciate your consistent support of the game for the last eight months, and one day past expectations won't kill us. If anything, take this backlash as a compliment to how addicting your game is.

Sincerely,

Your Rational Fans


PS: The ending still sucked.

[Kaithalas]

I'm appreciative for all the special fun extra things the devs have put for us, so chillax if they're late with the updates, outrage my @&#)(@, Pfft, the vocal immature impatient minority SHOULD  go take a chill pill and go enjoy a delicious meal with a cute lady or something.

Patience is a virtue, HAS NO ONE TAUGHT THESE FOOLISH CHILDREN THAT? IF THEY ARE LACKING, I HAVE A ROD RIGHT HERE I USE AS A TEACHING ASSISTANT.

Thank you BW. Remembrance Day is there to us all to pay our respects to the fallen soldiers in the war(s) and recent events.

Ironically we are all playing a war based/fighting game. Do we like it when our character is down = No

Respect.

[Achertontem]

I think you people do amazing work out there, so many updates in such a short time span and for 3 platforms is simply not easy to be done.

Keep up the good work!!

My god. BioWare does us a favor by giving weekly balance changes. You lack common sense because you still had the nerve to post a moronic reply such as that;when Bryan just gave some insight into what their work entails.Now that the children have gotten spoiled by the weekly changes.. They're even more entitled (which I didnt even think was possible) than ever before. I hate you so called "gamers" these days.
