Reapers Delay Mass Effect 3 Until 2012

[RatRace123]

That's fine, we don't want to rush a game, especially one that's supposed to be an explosive end to one of the best trilogies of the current generation.

I'm okay with that. It gives me time to play around with Skyrim first and then when i'm done with that this will come out.

 

[rickthetrick]

They just need more time to get all the DLC ready for Launch date. Wakka wakka!

 

[Zeraki]

As much as I want Mass Effect 3, I was hoping the game would get delayed. More development time to make the game even better is fine with me. Right now I'm more interested to hear what Clint Mansell is doing with the soundtrack anyway.

 

[bl4ckh4wk64]

I'm completely okay with this. Putting back the release date will allow me to finish another couple complete playthroughs as well as let them fine tune the game as a whole.

I guess this leaves the question... will game devs ever figure out a reasonable window to make a good game in? Or is "We're pushing it back" always be a sign that they're making a quality game?

For Blizzard it is option B.

For everyone else the answer is usually about two years.

Well, good thing they ain't rushing this one at least. Not sure this game is going to "conclude" anything, though. From my understanding from one of EA's press releases a while back, they want to continue Mass Effect indefinitely.

I guess Duke Nukem forever has taught us all a little patience when it comes to 'delays'

 

[infohippie]

No problem, Bioware. I want to see ME3 done right and not rushed like DA2. And, like everyone else has been saying, I'll have Skyrim from November onward, I won't be lacking for something to play.

 

[Mauso88]

It's of no concern to me. If you've played one BioWare RPG, you've played them all.

 

[RandomHer0]

Usually i would be upset by this, but with all the games I'll have to but at that time (Rage, ES5 etc.) i can wait. Especially if it means making the game better.

 

[JakBandit2208]

Ehh I'm fine with this considering the same thing happened when ME 2 came out...besides from a marketing standpoint this is a great move for EA and Bioware considering nothing is coming out around early 2012.

 

[Super Toast]

Noooooooooooooooooookay. Now I can focus my efforts on Skyrim during Christmas.

 

[s0meNo0b]

I'm not really suprised, but I'm not dissapointed either. Let them work on a game so it doesn't end up like DA2. I played it, it had it's enjoyable moments, but it was just lacking a lot.

 

[Savber]

Use the extra three months wisely, Bioware. ;P

DA2 was disappointing and I hate to see ME go down the same path.

 

[ranyilliams]

Honstly, because of skyrim im glad they are doing this, that makes it so they dont have to compete with such a heavy hitter for my time

 

[katsabas]

Absolutely no biggie. Arkham City is due November and I do wanna finish ME2 a couple more times. They just gave me more time. Sweet!

 

[BreakdownBoy]

DO a good job Bioware!!! OR else.....
