I hope they release that hammer for the multiplayer. A krogan vanguard with gravity hammer? That's just cheating! Yes please!
BioWare Teases New Mass Effect 3 DLC

Ah, I remember back in the day when anything related to Mass Effect (the games, anyway) was announced the comment sections would be flooded. Now, after this has been out for a whole day, I see the comments are still on page 1. Surely, a sign of how far this series has fallen. Very sad.
I will be buying this. I will be playing it. I will be enjoying it. Though I know I won't enjoy it as much as the other DLCs for the other games. As has been said before, knowing how (badly) it all ends just sucks the fun right out of this. Why do I care about any of this when it's not going to change a thing in the end? It's a said day for me when trophies/achievements are the driving force behind me getting Mass Effect DLC.
Unless the rumors be true and this is post ending. Please...

Pretty much my thoughts, the ending was so craptastic that it ruins any desire to play in the universe at all knowing how futile it is. You basically pick three paths of suck, which ending you get doesn't matter because none of them fit the series, and all of them let off their own brand of reeking miasma.SonicWaffle said:
That said, my biggest thought is that if there is more ME3 DLC like this, I am losing faith in humanity, because it means enough people apparently bought the last ME3 DLC to justify the production of this one.
Meh, I haven't bought any EA products since the release of the Extended Cut, and frankly I don't plan to any time soon. Partially because EA has screwed me over a few too many times, partially because I just don't care about their franchises anymore. Mass Effect is over, and the journey was fun but the ending just killed my interest in replaying it. If they made a new one, or put this after the ending, I might be more interested, but only if it consistently got good reviews. As it is? I'll stick to things I know I'm going to enjoy, thanks.
If you squint, you can see Wrex in that Citadel picture. So looks like he might be back along with Joker and the ME3 squaddies.
People keep asking for more DLC, but every time it looks like some is about to come out, they ***** about it. That's why you should ignore fanboys: they do not know what they want.

I'm sorry, unlike? Have you never experienced other media where you knew what was coming and enjoyed it anyway?Kopikatsu said:
I'm guessing the first pic is dealing with a singleplayer DLC and the Krogan is dealing with some new multiplayer DLC?
Still haven't bought Omega yet (waiting for it to go on sale), but as long as the Singleplayer portion is still good, I'll keep buying it. Though if this new one just gives me more War Assets, it'll probably be a big turn off for me. Extended Cut DLC already lowered the amount of Galactic Readiness you needed so that you could get pretty gain access to all of the endings without too much fuss (aka playing multiplayer). I don't need more assets, just give me a good story that can be exciting. A new squadmate would be nice, but the chances of that happening are pretty much zero.
Whatever, going to have to wait for some more info down the road before doing anything.

i loved mass effect 3 and even loved the ending. more mass effect can be nothing but good news, as far as im concerned. i mean, worst case scenario it isnt that good, in which case i simply wont buy it. i didnt buy omega because i didnt hear anything that great about it but the fact that it existed didnt affect me or my bank account any
I loved Mass Effect and I actually kind of liked the ending to Mass Effect 3, but I haven't touched any ME3 DLC. Because I know that no matter what happens, no matter what I do, there will be tragedy. There will be loss. I will have to watch old friends die, and I will have to say goodbye. It's kind of ironic; I stay away from the DLC because ME3 was just that good.
^yyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepppppppp.Mike Richards said:
Guys, get over it, it's DLC. You don't have to buy it, it's just an extension of the game, nothing more, it's no big deal, stop bringing the argument up.
Let's not turn Mass Effect into Star Wars.
What Bioware did when I wanted more time with Mass Effect 2 characters and made the ending D.R.M that relied on D.L.C and or multiplayer.
My reaction.
To the people who think I only had issue with the ending.
Aside from the multiplayer issues I have with Mass effect three I've included a video that demonstrates my other problems with the game.
So In reality I'm not even interested in a new " D.L.C " I've been through with this game for some time now.
( I'm not going to reply to " Quotes " ).

I had no problem with Mass Effect 3, in fact, I thought it was a great game. I survived the ending fiasco, but after the waste of time/money/goodwill that was the Omega DLC, I'm done. I just don't care anymore. They've taken my love and turned it into apathy.
Cap: 'It is different'
No it isn't, captcha, no it isn't.
Its not really about being a fan Andy, rather about producing good journalism. I think it was after Leviathan that they mentioned that their DLC sales for ME3 were doing pretty strongly, the release of Omega after that was quite decent as well. Based on those two points alone there is nothing to assume that there arent players out there willing to buy it and experience the new content. Your article seems to infer that there is no one who is going to pick it up which flies in the face of info and trending we have so far.Andy Chalk said:
I'd say that, while I thought most of the seventh book was crap, I've reread the Harry Potter series like a dozen times to re-experience it.Devoneaux said:
It is about both. I was merely responding to someone who had offered that games were special snowflakes in this regard.
Can we just call them "EA Canada" from now on? Calling them BioWare makes me sad. I'm taking a break from MMOs and am about to start a new ME3 playthrough, having taken a male paragon Shep from ME thru 2 to 3. Unless this is released in a matter of days I won't be playing it.
Good gameplay, shame everything else about it sucked. The biggest crime ME3 made IMO wasn't even the ending. It was that choice was gone, as was consequence. Decisions and outcomes from both previous instalments lost all meaning and value. Sell Legion to Cerberus? Get a hologram legion. Mordin dies on suicide mission, get alternate salarian. Wrex dies on Virmire, get different Clan Leader. Free the rachnii queen on Noveria, you get a number. Extinguish her species from the galaxy, mission plays the same way with fake queen. Tali exiled, she turns up in the same role anyway. What is the point in a single decision made if everything happens precisely the same way down the line?

wait wait wait wait...
People still play this thing?!
One play through was enough to get all the good parts of this game for me and even my friends who are staunch fans of Bioware and Mass Effect stopped after their second or third play.
I like Shamus Youngs (and cohorts whose names I forget) take in Spoiler warning on this game, there are only two or three missions that feel well executed and all the rest are just excuses to throw things at the player. All the side missions beyond collect item and get assets, are just teasers for multiplayer maps. You see characters you know and love abused horribly throughout, such as the disgusting death of Thane at the hands of a character who belongs in someone's fan fiction on deviant art instead of in the real storyline. They're wrap up and good byes that only work in one or two instances, the rest are "Hey Hey, remember this character, the one you realy love, aren't they cool?".
To this day I just have to say one line to people to carry across the full atrocity of this title "Biotic, Cyborg, Cerberus, super ninja from space". Tell me if you think that sounds like it belongs in ME or in a Star Ocean game and that's only a minor problem with the title, but one I think tells you all you need to know about the design team.
Does EA Bioware really think that this property is still worth milking after the rabid fan reaction? It's time to find new IP guys you killed this and it's starting to stink.

What a shock. A Mass Effect thread filled with bitching and moaning.
I for one welcomeour new insect overlords more DLC. More time in Mass Effect is fine with me. And if it comes out before I finish my current play through of ME2, even better.
I for one welcome
I haven't bought any of the ME3 DLC so far (in spite of buying all previous DLC for ME1 and ME2) since, due to the ending, I don't find myself wanting to play anything that's been offered. I'm hoping this DLC will change that. Colour me optimistic.
I got the ME Trilogy for Christmas, I'm going through all of the games again. While the ending does ruin the third game, I feel it will be sort of nice to play through the game again with some added content.
Hopefully it's not too expensive or too glichy...
