I'm not worried at all. Because of the infinite negative feedback loop of the forums and elsewhere on the internet, Bioware may have taken the hint that it's best to hide their plans until the last possible second. Every time they don't, they get their own words thrown back in their face, repeatedly.

 

Consider:

  • If they had already announced story DLC, then a vocal segment would be crying about how we were sold an incomplete game.
  • If they announce story DLC now, then a vocal segment will cry about how they're making new content before they've fixed all the bugs. The above vocal segment will commence crying about being sold an incomplete game.
  • If they don't announce story DLC, then a vocal segment will cry about Bioware has abandoned the game, and a different vocal segment will point to it as proof that the game failed.

Since they can't actually win for trying, it's best to simply remain silent and give any vocal segment less to seize upon and throw back in their face. When they do finally announce something, it will be a pleasant surprise. If they announce it now and anything changes, they will never, ever, ever hear the end of it.

But keeping silent is a form of abuse. It's unconscionable I tells ya.

This. Under promise and over deliver. Don't believe anything till you have it downloaded or in your hands.

BSN has so many trolls who seem to think that there opinion is relevant, to anything, it's depressing. Skyrim bug free?? The Witcher the same, plus horrid game play & a childish take on romance & sex. Be pleased with what you got it's not bad, in fact it's bloody good. You have a different opinion fine just don't keep moaning like a 3 year old that you didn't get exactly the game you wanted, that was NEVER going to happen & never has with any other game. Esp one with a history.

No it does NOT worry me because its already been tweeted that they ARE NOT READY TO SAY ANYTHING and LEGALLY THEY CAN'T SAY anything as of yet.   How difficult is that to understand?

 

Can we stop with the freaking doom and gloom?  It takes awhile for story based DLC. You should have already learned that from ME3 and DA2

The game hasn't even been out for three months yet and Bioware has a history of only announcing a DLC a couple of weeks before it comes out.

the game has only been out for about 2.5 months, so everybody needs to relax. If there is no word by the summer, then i would be worried. They are working on patches to fix the bugs that are in the game. I hope there are some armor/weapon schematic packs out b4 that.

Not really.As long as the game sells , we'll get something.

It's only been what....4 months since DAI came out?

If there is still no word in Summer 2015 I would worry.

Well its weird because they made story DLC for ME faster then that, and they only made story DLC for up to a year after the game was released. So if they are intending to do that here - only support it for a year and they don't get DLC out soon we wont be getting much.

I like how they did that in Battlefield 3 and 4 with Premium, you can see what will come out and when. Smal things like camo's, knifes, etc and big DLC's you kinda know what to expect. They can do that to (Bioware) Item packs/Armor packs, Treasure chest, War table missions and so on. And for BIG DLC have a time scheme, within a year 2 pieces of Storywise DLC will come, and depending on sales they can ad an expansion pack ^^. Hope........... :P

Mass Effect 3 Release Date: March 6th, 2012

1st Story DLC (Leviathan): August 28th, 2012

2nd Story DLC (Omega): November 27th, 2012

3rd Story DLC (Citadel): March 5th, 2013 

 

Let me count for you: first DLC wasn't released (and probably wasn't announced until two week before) nearly five months after. Inquisition hasn't even reached the 3 month point yet (released on November 17th) so if we look at ME3, we won't know of any DLC until near the end of March/beginning of April.

There was a time when I wasn't waiting for DLCs to come out so much for a DA game. I was having so much fun with its main campaign even after sinking well over 200 hours on it. I only realized DLCs have been released for that game AFTER I gathered enough strength to pause my playthrough of it.

Technically, the first DLC was the Extended Cut. Not sure how useful ME3 is as a precedent because of all that stuff going on. Though DA2 is a similar timeframe

Origins was a November release and Awakenings got announced like right after New Year's IIRC. Return to Ostagar wasn't too far after that announcement. They couldn't get the Origins stuff out fast enough lol.

I'm still not concerned though.

I think being concerned at this point is just silly. Even if you considered DA2 disappointing, it still got 2 dlc. The first of which was announced and came out about 4 months after launch. Look at Bioware's history of DLC and there's a pretty consistent pattern of dlc coming out every 4 months. 

 

So maybe it it gets to April and we haven't heard anything, it's worth wondering about.

ME3's first story DLC was delayed due to them adding the EC. Technically the EC was the first story DLC.

EC: June 26th. 3 1/2 months.

 

We aren't even at the three month point and EC is a lot smaller then storybased which contain unique modules, characters, etc.

Honesltly mike never announced they would have a story DLC content, he said they would focus on improving the MP and hopefully patching back some of the stuff that they had no time to include in the game or were left out due to time constraint, so as far as we know this could very well be a standalone game (since people always complained about important story or characters being "gated away" behind DLCs).

 

And if they are  indeed working on something big a la awakening expansion, you wont hear from it for more 4 months, and that expansion may very well turn into a game on its own like the exalted marches became the inquisition.

They should really announce something =(

Anything

Also I wouldn't mind DA2 like equipment DLC, but in form of schematics, we are already overpower but we lack variations, more designs, I deeply need it (since I'm all about crafting in Inquisition)

I don't see all this negative feedback, honestly.

Didn't it have a 5.8 user rating on metacritic for like an entire month? I noticed it's gone up a bit, but still.

I also see a lot of complaints on the feedback section.

Why are you trolling?   Did you even read this?

Prefer they announce DLC when ready, and that DLC isn't rushed to release for no good reason.

I wouldn't use Metacritic as a source for anything. People were throwing out zeroes and tens on release day.

These forums aren't the best gauge of popular opinion, either. It is a very small population.
