Chris, i have question.
do you believe ME4 on UE4 (unreal engine 4) would be very much more amazing and bigger, clear than anything of the scale not done before right? as far i know, ME1 had UE or UE2 and ME3 has UE3 so here's slight chance that ME4 will run on UE4?


Probably Frostbite2.

They are using it with DA3 so I would expect might be used for ME4 too..

"2 - Discussion of the Indoctrination theory is moved to Groups. We did with the the character/romance forum as well and it has worked well for those people who want to discuss their preferred topics. This is how discussion on the Indoctrination theory will work."

First off, no. No it has not worked well for anyone that is not an employee of bioware.

I would like to know how banishing people to groups is helpful. I thought this was a social network, not a network of groups. If that were the case, shouldn't you just move all discussions to groups?

Yeh it was confirmed.

Perhaps more interestingly, Roy announced that the game will be being made on DICE's Frostbite engine (the original trilogy was made on Unreal 3), stating that the game "will be built with the amazing technology of Frostbite as its foundation, enhanced by many of the systems that the Dragon Age III team has already spent a lot of time building." No word on whether the game would be using the Frostbite 2 iteration, or a future build for next-gen hardware. With this news, the next Mass Effect joins the huge slate of upcoming EA titles to use Frostbite, including Dragon Age III, Command & Conquer Generals 2, and Army of Two: Devil's Cartel.

Do you understand the concept of "lurkers" Chris? Just look at the number of page views. The IT following is not anywhere near as small as you are making it out to be. I really hope BW is not as out of touch with their fanbase as you seem to be.

Your post is a classic example of what I was saying before. At some point IT will need clarified for ME to continue.


Yep, I know exactly how many unique accounts post AND/OR just read the IT thread.

As to whether IT is ever confirmed, I may be, but it does not have to be. I am not a writer or anything, but since we have already said that the next ME game will not be a Commander Shepard game, I don't see why it would need to be addressed. It could take place before the ME series. It could take place at the same time as the ME series with different characters living a different aspect of the known series. It could take place in a completely new part of the galaxy with a completely different threat, character, aliens, etc. Etc. Etc. Etc.



:devil:


Well, it doesn't NEED to be done but as far as I'm concerned, I hate having to head canon my ending.  Maybe that's just me.  It's the same concept as an alternate ending.  I think it would do well and would serve to please those who wanted such an ending.  ME4 need not be directly related to ME3 either.  I would actually prefer it be in a different galaxy entirely.

Yeah, as long as I've been here, I still don't know how to search a specific group.  And I don't want to join all the character groups...I liked lurking  :-P

As far as EA/Bioware is concerned closing the IT thread was a superb decision. Now the IT conspiracy theorists can revel with their grasping of straws in the shadows without giving newcomers to the series or BSN any false ideas about the ending or story in general.

*applauds the decision*

Indeed, it should be deleted along with it's previous incarnations.

Aw, I'd think you of all people would enjoy the theatricality of the thread being stuck on a spike for the forum to see.

I'm not quite sure what to make of this response but...yeah. Basically what he said was the discussion belongs in the groups rather than the forums. So why leave a constant reminder of it on the forums.

Unless he's just leaving it there for a few days to let the IT fans know what's what.

So eveyone knows not to post new IT threads, think of it as hanging a corpse as a warning.

Serves me just as well(as I've said before a good study of mass hysteria) but doesn't produce as much butthurt as deleting it.

Say, have you given up on "Project X" or moved the goal post to ME4? Curious minds would like to know.

If I google "Mass Effect 3 Indoctrination Theory Discussion", will the Groups Discussion appear? Because that's how I found the forum thread that just got closed.

They were a group of people very involved with the topic with few new people joining the discussion. This is the very definition of a group and what the groups section is for, such as the Talimancers or Save Thane or similar. 


I find the group mechanic for BSN clumsy and segregated.
Threads listed in singular forums are much more easily accessible.
