Sinclair Networks "Found it from the Express article. Thanks.
As far as our team are involved the content we created is not gone. Whether or not Montreal will continue or keep making internal changes we are not sure. All we know is our content contract for Mass Effect was closed leaving only APEX and patches in the works and a new one for Anthem created.
Currently the Montreal team are not big enough to support creating new content on a large scale unless the decide to use elements they cut from the game before release."

"Unless they have decided to scrap the content we made and move us to something else. But I am not sure how they can do it with half the staff reassigned." And it gets even stranger. Which means some content exists...wonder if they turned it over to Edmonton?

Holy crap, I've never seen anything like this...Sinclair is lighting the mob's torches Suikoden hacked the Facebook account. I added the part about the bigwigs at BioWare... Just kidding. I guess Sinclair Networks won't be doing anymore contractual work for EA again. I also think NDAs weren't signed or enforced there. Thank you Sinclair Networks. Ugh. Sad. Well, Anthem has a big, big, big target on it and all of YouTube just had a serious orgasm. EA's Marketing team is not helping. EA hates us.

Ian Frazier on Twitter said "I'm not aware of Sinclair Networks" when asked about the post then asked for a link to the Facebook page. My guess is that he has nothing to do with the multiplayer aspect of the game so he would not have any specific knowledge of the company. Aaryn Flynn might be the person that would know a lot more since he is General Manager of BioWare and to me he would be the person who makes decisions like that.

This is very fishy. Also search Bing for "sinclair network vienna Austria" and note the URL...

I doubt we're getting the whole picture, but who cares, right? YouTube is celebrating. "We're gonna get some more mileage out of this dead horse! YEEHAW!"

So Anthem did take out Mass Effect after all. Damnit, Anthem, I just do not like you very much right now. If what sinclair network says is true, I lost the little hype I might have gotten for Anthem. It looked good but not that much of a Bioware game, But NOW, I am really not in the mood for Anthem. If that is true, it seems like bioware is trying to burry andromeda like it never happen, and if that is what they are planning... reactiongifs.me/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/jack-nicholson-anger-the-shining.gifNo EA Bioware NO, you don't leave a story unfinished, you don't leave your franchise like that, you just started plot and you did not resolve it as of now. If you wanted to finish the story of the mass effect franchise with the third, ok that would have been your choice, the story was over. But right now, if you are indeed trying to start an other game while your previous franchise has many plot unresolved and you don't intend to finish it... reactiongifs.me/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/it-crowd-maurice-moss-frustration-fuck-this.gifI am not in the mood for Anthem and probably never will, I supported you big time over the years because I love your game but in this case, it looks like it is ME 3 ending all over again. But this time, they are not trying to fix the problem and move away like it never happen. NOPE, MEA happened and some of the stories are unfinished and we deserve fucking closure whatever it is dlc or sequel.

Sadly they said by doing this Anthem will not be as well received, so if that does happen, MEA will be blamed for Anthem, and Anthem is blamed for MEA.

"I agree. We were called in in the last 3 months to help them catch up as production was behind as there were several issues.
All we are saying is that the content we made so far isn't happening and resources are shifting. We are now only making APEX and patches, DLC from our end at the request of BioWare has ceased and we have been diverted to focus on Anthem.
The Issue I am concerned about is if they do intent to make their own content, how they will do it when they have downsized that studio."

Yeah, Sinclair has to be feeling pretty solid about their contract on Anthem if they are disclosing info on Andromeda before official word from EA/BioWare

"Our contract was for DLC creation since the studio was downsizing. We had created 3 DLC packs of which one would have been ready for August. The meeting we had was decided to hold off and focus to APEX and cancel the DLC. If Bioware want to create their own DLC, then you will be waiting for quite a while as the content we made was erased as per contractual obligation on our side for copyright."
If it's any consolation, outsourced DLC would probably have been of pretty shitty quality.
