Neither can I. I guess it'll only result in the users spamming threads so as to improve their "cool" rank.deatharmonic wrote...

They've had that on Bethesda forums for a while (although based on number of posts) and it doesn't add anything to the forum. Though I'm guessing it will be optional on here which is fair enough.

Oh, I missed this. Only so much one can keep track of with a smartphone when on a 3 conintent work trip.

The idea is probably to extend a game's life-cycle by giving you points/perks for playing while, at the same time, keeping tabs on the games you play, sort of a "friendly" DRM service. At least that's the way I see it.

Post counters and ranks have been doing that for forums for a long time.
I have been using Xfire for almost 8 years now so the concept is not new for me.
And plausible, which is the most important characteristic of any public statement.Chris Priestly wrote...
Honestly?
Ok, so recently Ray & Greg retired. We knew this would cause some people to think that BioWare was going to collapse, die, end whatever you want to call it. Initially we were not planning on discussing DA3 until next year, but to combat the rumors that we'd die off without Ray & Greg, we announced officially that DA3 was in the works (along with a new Mass Effect title and a new IP in development).
Since we announced it, we figured some fans would want to discuss it, so we opened a DA3 forum. We could have just let people talk in DA2 forums, but it is a different game, so we opened this to let you talk about DA3.
Simple really.

I never said it was a very original idea, but they seem to be aiming for merging of all social media accounts with your GamrRank profile.

Can someone tell me how to hook up my BSN account?
Or do I have to create an account on GameRakr and then link it?
Help pls!
Under what settings. All I have on gameranker is PLAY, SAY, and RESPECT. There is no settings tab.deuce985 wrote...
I see it now. It's under settings --> Bioware Social Network.
You just link your BSN account to your Gamerank account. You need to create a Gamerank account first.

But yeah, GamrRank. Seriously, the BSN can't even get my character profiles uploaded and now there's this external thing without an "e" which gives me more crap on people's profiles. That's going to be great.

Any chance to hear something about the new IP?

Would a Jade Empire reboot be considered a new IP?

I could be wrong but I believe what bob_20000 meant was, why post this in the DA3 forums? My answer is that it's probably posted everywhere for people to see.
Like I said, could be wrong though.
