The ME:A 'Story DLC Cancelled' Sinclair Networks Facebook hoax

Works fast eh? lol

What's interesting is, they said they had 3 DLC, one in August and that they were kicked off MEA, but that doesn't stop BW from making it happen. They just won't be part of it, so they got cancelled, but they think BW can't do anything without them, so they felt is was officially over.

Nothing official, but there were hints at Quarian DLC included in a blog post that was made AFTER the Kotaku article was posted, and I definitely recall a twitter reply from Mike Gamble where someone asked something to the effect of 'is what they say about ME being shelved true?' and he simply replied with a snarky "They"

It's bizarre to be honest - while I would absolutely expect to have heard about DLC at this point, you'd expect there to be NO hints about it if there was truly going to be nothing.

This is a very odd interlude. I feel like the world owes me a beer.

Sinclair Networks. Derp.

I've been dropping by the BSN about once per week in anticipation of "this thread". I can't say I expected Sinclair Networks to be the ones to let the cat out of the bag. I hope their business isn't negatively impacted by this questionable (insane) decision. It definitely has the feel of a pissed off, rogue employee venting his or her anger.

As to Ian not knowing who they are: Yeah, right. I love Ian for his work on MEA, his engagement with the fans and his generally being a very good guy. He knows exactly who Sinclair is, though. Most regulars here know who they are, at least since they threw BioWare under the bus in April, in connection with the unfinished state of MEA. Ian is being circumspect, as he should be. He's not a fool. Still, this crazy choice by Sinclair Networks rings of truth. It's not confirmation bias that's telling me as much. The body of evidence since the 10-hour prerelease "demo" has led me to anticipating this for quite some time.

Whoever decided to do this is nuts, in my mind; but I appreciate their intent. They wanted to give the ME community the truth, as ill-advised as their choosing to do so might've been.

I feel badly for Ian and everyone else who poured their hearts and souls, along with countless months of crunch, into this game. They deserve more respect and appreciation than they've received. If we never play any more "new moments"/fresh content in the ME universe, it's been a great ride. "The best", in my mind.

If you want to believe so. Someone with more sense than the FBI-warrior is likely doing damage control as we discuss this. Their deleting it in no way makes it "less credible" for me. 

The worst part is its not like they have to deal with "trolls", they could have just left the comments on their facebook page and you know, not argue with the the people they consider trolls, but apparently it was that important to delete the comments to not have to deal with them, even if they did not have to deal with them at all... 

What the fuck is going on...

OK...whose decision is it ultimately for DLC?...EA or Bioware? I would think EA correct? They would have to sign off on it and then Bioware would work on it correct?

That's what I thought, but these guys said they were to make 3 DLC's and had one for August already, now the content is not being used and they deleted it, so BW is on their own. They also said they came in to help BW helped clean up their patches recently.

Good thing you edited, I was thinking : what did you meant by saying "excise"...
