To be honest, how difficult can it be to release a statement saying, "Yes, we're working on single player DLC. No, we can't yet say when it will release." Surely such a statement would put many minds at ease at zero cost. The problem with assuming difficulty and cost for a set of agreements that you have no awareness of is that you don't know what is and isn't possible. Having worked for employers with strict NDAs and equivalent policies before, I can entirely understand the situation they're in. Long story short, I doubt anyone enjoys listening to the internet screaming 'WHY YOU NO TELL ME INFO', if they're not saying anything, it's because they're not allowed. End of story. NDAs don't work on things like what a random guy on the internet thinks. I'm not talking about the devs, I'm talking about the heads at EA. E3 would've been a great time to announce this.

Did Kotaku ever mention Sinclair Networks in their articles ? No but my first thought last night was they might have been the source used, and that Jason guy was fooled. That could actually have been what happened. Holy shit......that is dumb.

It all started when SN said BW wouldn't listen to them and push back the release of MEA. That's when SN was claiming they worked for them. This was months ago!

It wasn't until last night's fiasco that people started taking a closer look.

I can't think of one time that BioWare has ever announced DLC at E3. It's always been new game announcements because it's such a big stage. Now GamesCom or similar smaller conference might be a viable space to announce DLC, but not E3. EA uses E3 for their hypetrain(s).

That's when SN was claiming they worked for them. This was months ago! So all of these ''ON ICE'' ''DEAD'' rumors started from a troll who hated Bioware? What the ever loving shit? Really internet? I know you are dumb internet but this is pushing it. That is some of the dumbest shit I've heard. And I was around when people started complaining about Dantes hair being black instead of white. Ugh.....

There was so much controversy around MEA, anything could be real or fake. It was a total mess and EA keeping tight-lipped made BW look even worse, and BW themselves were already looking bad for other things, then the romances, face animations, etc... canceling the MP testing... wow it was a disaster!

Must admit that I feel relieved by BW words. Though this thread was quite funny. We are a bunch of funny guys/gals! I just want to say that I'm really enjoying my time here great community, great (and crazy) people!

Who knows... definitely it was some kind of long-term plan, cause he/they want to look as legit as possible. FB profiles - really well done, with pictures, a lot of comments, many advices, in many different languages; then you have IMDB profles both for the "owner" and "company"; i also found websites from austria related to their office in Vienna. It wasn't one week work; someone did it long time ago for some reason. Everyone remember that SN was mentioned here on BSN long time ago in a connection to MEA patches and absolutely NO ONE noticed anything unusual about it.

Maybe but lets face it the internet didn't really help matters. People getting annoyed a phantom. Its pretty ridiculous. Oh yeah it was fuel to the fire. If people had sat back, had a little faith in BW and let things ride, this would have been dealt with much earlier or more likely SN would not have had anything to go on. Everyone and thing combined was just a volcano ready to erupt and now the truth is coming out left and right, but luckily only 4 months after the game was out, so the damage can be fixed quickly. If SN had been still going strong, they might have ruined MEA for good and seemed to want Anthem hate to form too.

If I were on Twitter I'd be every single one of those tweets from Ian! Hysterical. I work on and under confidentiality agreements nearly every week in my job. You cannot really say, confirm, or deny anything. Silence is the status-quo response when it comes to content. I find it completely plausible that whomever posted this could be the source for Schierer's Kotaku "ME:A is done" article. Which raises a larger question? Who the hell is this person? This is kind of a long burn/game for a simple troll post. WTF is/was the point? LOLZ? Clearly, they know how to work the BW fanbase. It just strikes me as odd. Maybe since they hadn't been found out yet they wanted another go. Then again, I try not to question insanity.

This has to be the most elaborate hoax I've seen. It was very convincing! Good thing the people at Reddit and BSN gathered evidence to discredit it! Good job guys!

TBH, the hoax in the end backfired because what it did seem to result in is a bonding moment between Bio and fandom, which is nice. So, Internet sucks, Internet rocks, and may we all be blessed with patience.
