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

Yeah that's what I thought too. They were simply told to move on to Anthem and then took it personally I guess.

They also said they could use cut content from the main game for DLC. WTF does that mean?

I agree.  If anything in the long run this probably will be a bigger problem for Sinclair Networks then EA/BioWare.  EA/BioWare are used to the torches and pitchforks, but this could cost Sinclair Networks big contracts with AAA publishers for they cannot trust they won't have another employee go on a rant and expose internal discussions combined with their personal opinions. Not to mention the possible fallout of any possible NDA clauses in contracts if they existed.  The real fallout I think is what might happen with Red Dead Redemption and Take-Two with how they have handled single player DLC as well, for they might want to back out with Sinclair due to this since they have been very quiet on single player DLC for GTAV as well.

They are supposed to be working on Anthem. This is going be bad for them for sure now!

I think it only felt contradictory because the poster was sharing bits of info at a time. Since we don't work in the industry, and have no idea of Sinclair Networks present SOP and/or contractual obligations, it comes across as even more murky. I think the poster was being straight with us. Their posts have the rushed, slightly disjointed feel of a pissed off person having an ill-advised blowup on Fb.

Oh God I read that last part wrong... so very wrong...  *goes to get coffee to wake up*

Yeah I know that it is what they said but I am just thinking how it could be possible?

They also revealed the DLC release date if that part was true. August.

I'm still a bit iffy on the validity of all this, but I definitely recall reading posts from Sinclair a while back claiming they'd made a huge free DLC for Ghost Recon: Wildlands that Ubisoft then decided to chop up and sell as seperate DLCs.

Now that's either another huge NDA breach with a large studio, or they're deliberately stirring up drama against big publishers.

They are the ones who also said BW refused to take 5 extra months to finish MEA in an article earlier this year.

Uh... okay... Just discovered this thread.

I think I'm just going to wander back to playing the Talos Principle and hope this all sorts itself out in the morning.

Well that would be kind of weird, if a big publisher is paying them to make content, wouldn't be like a content the publisher owns? and therefore would be able to do whatever the fuck they want with it?
