You'll still have people getting their hopes up and then complaining about it not being what they expected as soon as it's announced.

This. Wouldn't bother me THAT much if people were just going to complain for a week or so... but, with this fanbase, we're talking MONTHS. So please. Try and keep your hopes, for something we know won't happen, down. Please. For everyone.

Prepare to be dissapointed about people to stop talking about Me3's ending when talking about mass effect. It will come up from time to time for a very long time.

Have people stoped talking about Star wars episode 1 yet?

There is a save as soon as you make your choice. I had to force-quit during the ending sequence and I resumed right as Shepard grabbed the control thingy.

it will likely be completely unrelated

if I'm wrong, it will be a pleasant surprise.

I can comfirm this. An autosave is made as soon as you grab handles/shoot tube/jump, which gets overwritten by the pre-cronos save once you're done with the ending.

Meaning that this particular save is useless and cannot be loaded for potential post-ending DLC, unless you turned off your console or PC halfway trough the ending sequence.

Except that you can still select "Restart Mission: Citadel: The Return" when the save before Cronos Station is loaded.

I remember they said to load a pre-Cronos save game for EC primarily because when loading Citadel: The Return, you would have missed the evacuation scene at the beam run.
Also this would give you the chance to get your EMS up if you hadn't enough before.

While we don't know what it will be exactly we have confirmation that there will be no post ending DLC - we already got the EC. I know some BSN'ers that really want this to not be the case but yeah OP, whatever it is, it's already confirmed not to be post.

What confirmation do we have that it won't be post-ending ?
I know it's unlikely but unless the devs denied it, it's still possible.

Don't forget the extra flag set for the Shepard survives destroy ending. So it does save flags after your choice of ending to your save game.

But in order to continue unless they used the Legacy save you would almost have to import your save to any post ending dlc, or play through from Cerb base. If they did a post ending DLC I think it would be kinda messed up since you would most likely have to install the EC to overwrite the original ending code, then install the Post ending DLC to overwrite the EC ending code.

It's all up to Bioware if they wish to keep all the satisfied fans and write off the dissatisfied fans. Or win back some ( possibly a lot) of dissatisfied fans and risk losing some ( or a lot who knows) satisfied fans.

I'm thinking at this point in time they are going to play it safe and write off the dissatisfied fans and just go with the ones they kept/made.


^-- many tweets and replies that there are no more ending dlc ( exact wording escapes me but it's only contesting because of all the false info we got beforehand about mass effect that the dev's said over-hyped things. )

Well but post-ending DLC is after the ending and not the ending itself ;-)
Anyway, I don't think it's as complicated as you described.
With EC installed or not, the game would just need to determine whether or not you have enough EMS / get the breath scene for post-ending DLC involving Shepard.
If another character would be in charge, this check wouldn't even be needed.

Also you wouldn't need to "import" a save or play through Cronos Station, just Restart Mission: Citadel: The Return.

I chose Control, my Shepard is death. Post-ending DLC is impossible for my Shepard.

That would be a problem if a post-ending DLC would be with Shepard as PC.
However, as some people posted it could be that a crew mate is in charge in such a DLC.

I'm not saying the next DLC will be post-ending, not at all, just that it is a possibility.

Actually I think it could be potentially great to have the Control portion be your squad finding Shepard in his new form, whatever that form may be (Catalyst-AI whatevs). High drama potential there imo.
