BioWare Defends Mass Effect 3 Launch-Day DLC

[anthony87]

Everyone knows companies lie Zeel, however there is a difference between lieing and the full blown illuminati level conspiracy you are trying to say they are a part of.

OH WHATS THAT?

DONT WANT TO DEBATE ANYMORE. WHAT HAPPPPPPENED TO ALL YOUR POINTS AND "FACTS". Seems they are filled to the god damn brim with holes.

I am not proposing anything extreme. Companies lie, so I am not trusting them. There is also contradictory evidence. You are the one who came in here with this Gall about "oh casey hudson says" i just showed you why he's a god damn liar and your defence is "OMG CONSPIRACY"

You do not fool me. Stop derailing the issue.

I didn't see him say any of that...

your evidence isn't the golden chalice so stop acting like it trumps ours

Hey, Zeel!

Gift for you!

 

[Tony2077]

And again the Prothean AS A CHARACTER was in development in Nov/Dec, the Prothean AS A SQUADMATE was not until after the game was done. Fact.

The Porhtean isn't important to the story, he only provides his own viewpoint on things already happening. Fact.

The Porthean is not needed to get the full story. Fact

see I can do it to.

Excuse me?
In the god damn leaks the Prothean is important. Are you telling me its not important anymore? If so, what lead you to that conclusions.


Second: How important it is is somewhat irrelevant. This is content that builds lore and helps further the story. To remove it from the game and charge more for it is taking advantage of the customers. Everyone plays the mass effect series for the story and characters. To remove a CHARACTER that adds a story is a dick move. Why do you support it.?

we're saying that stuff wasn't removed and this was made after the game was done how hard is that to understand very by the looks of you

 

[Whateveralot]

I draw the line right here. You do not get to remove ESSENTIAL FUCKING content just to ship more fucking collector editions.

How is this essential? Does your computer / XboX360 not run this game without a Prothean squadmate?

Essential to the lore and story. Read the fucking leaks. I'm tired of educating you half-wits.

Unless story and lore and NOT ESSENTIAL to SCI-FI RPG GAMES?
SURELY YOU DONT THINK THAT.

START THINKING GOD DAMN IT. Theres like 12 pages of fucking information. read before any of you guys respond to me.

Surely, protheans are a big thing in Mass Effect. I have played the game and I know what I'm talking about.

That said, I expect having an optional prothean on the team is just like any other (optional) teammate like Zaeed and Kasumi, with just a slightly more historical background (50.000 years more historical, to be accurate). Does this mean it's essential to the storyline in this game?

I don't know...I really don't know.

I havn't played the game and neither have you. If you have, however: I will take your factual knowledge more seriously. Until then, may I advice you to stop giving such a big shit.

Guys! Guys!

I know what Bioware are up to!

I had an epiphany while on the toilet, it all makes perfect sense now!

Wait. You shat, didn't you? I know this feeling.

 

[Tony2077]

To all the pro-day-one-dlc side: Notice you aren't defending your position. Once I challenge it, you guys all begin to horde in your little corner. Your "evidence" has been debunked. Mine is still holding its weight. If you aren't going to atleast acknowledge that, then you guys are some serious fanbots.

your the only fanbot here well anti fanbot

 

[SajuukKhar]

You are aware Zeel that Bioware specifically said that the leaks were old an do not represent the final version of the product and looking through them and the DEMO THERE ARE DIFFERENCES.


but I guess thats ANOTHER lie also right?

Specify. What are you asking for proof of?

I.....I didn't ask for anything?

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Guys! Guys!

Mass Effect ryhmes with class defect, which rhymes with crass inept, which ryhmes with lass prefect!

Don't you see!

[HEADING=1]It all makes sense![/HEADING]

I CAN SEE IT ALL

Fuck man, how were we so blind?

Wha- What's this on the back of my head?

Oh my god...

It's a control chip! And what's this writing on the side?

Electronic Arts?

 

[The.Bard]

I miss the days when buying a game got you the game, not 9/10ths of the game with the option to pay extra for the rest (if you even "own" the games anymore, with EA I can never tell).

And why are people defending this? Even if you're okay with having launch day DLC you can't tell me you agree with how EA do it. Does anyone here even remember the Warden's Keep from DA:O? With the guy advertising the DLC IG after explaining the quest to you.

And as many others have mentioned they normally did this to encourage people to buy new...but this screws over anyone buying new unless they shell out extra for the "collectors edition". Say what you will but "normal editions" rarely have content cut specifically for the purposes of adding to the collectors edition]/i].

Please, ME3 fanboy sheep, grow a spine for once. You're the reason EA thinks this kind of crap pays.

Well there's your problem! You're a debbie downer. You're not getting 9/10ths of the game. You're getting 10/10ths. And when you buy the DLC, you have 11/10ths. That's right... Bioware is cranking it to 11.

*ahem* Putting aside your baseless jabs, the whole thing is incredibly simple. It's been stated several times, but there is a gap between completing the game and it showing up on shelves. Instead of moving the design team off to something else, they started work on DLC. Nothing was CUT from the game. It just doesn't work like that.

The team busted hump, and in the time it's taken the game to go gold, they were able to fully realize the DLC to completion for launch day. They worked HARD so that we could have this. COULD they have waited a month after release before launching? Yes. BUT... I don't WANT that DLC a month after the game comes out and I've already beaten it. I want it DAY ONE. Thus, they release it the day it comes out so that we have it immediately. If anything, they should be THANKED for this extra effort.

I really don't see WHY this is such a problem with people, and I REALLY don't see why you think those of us who don't detest it are spineless sheep. You can disagree all you want, but for the love of all that is holy, please leave the nasty jabs at the door - nothing deflates an argument more than childish insults. I've seen you have very intelligent discussions in other threads; you are better than judgmental closed-mindedness.

I have no problem with people who don't support day one dlc. The solution is VERY simple. DO NOT BUY IT. For those of us who see NOTHING wrong with it, just let us buy it and enjoy it in peace. Why is that so hard??

old script hmm guess i should look at it just to see what the difference are but after i play the game since the big points might be the same

no. Try again. Protheans aren't some japanese wifuu or some crusty old mercernary. The "bit more historical background" is a grave understatement. Do we have to go into how much the protheans carried the entire game? Do you think there impact on developing the story would be minor? Some characters are more important than others. A living breathingFUCKINGProthean is kind of one of those important characters.

Second, I do know. In the leaks, the prothean is vital to the plot, the story, and establishing lore.

Seeing as the main plot points of the leak appear to be the same,(and mostly everything else) I can safely conclude that, yes the prothean is important and essential to this game. Now, if you are going to try and tell me I don't know anymore than you, you need to debunk everything I just said.

they were important but since there tech is reaper and unless he knows of some dues ex machina i don't think other then shooting things how much impact he'll have
