EA/BioWare parading Anthem this early into Andromeda's life cycle is a blazing red flag and an obvious move to distract the industry from this dumpster fire of a release. True, we got a little new content yesterday but it was overshadowed by the desperate move to inflate the RNG pool hoping what little fan base for Andromeda remains will spend cash for the "new" weapons.

Andromeda released in beta status? Mass Effect series placed on ice? Development studio downsized and moved to other projects? Hype machine for new IP Dylan/Anthem rolling during the shitstorm of Andromeda botched release? Tell me, why are you NOT worried about the future support and content? She's been posting a ton of rubbish since yesterday. I'll assume it's a fangirl still desperately clinging on to what might have been. (shrug) I don't think that "wait and see" is unreasonable atm. The bullet list above actually might mean MP updates to give some weight to their Anthem bid. Their MP content record is very patchy atm, including a complete failure of DAIMP. Perhaps, Andromeda gets some hands out to establish Bio as guys who can handle an always on-line game, release cadence (which they always failed before) etc.
if they want into MP market, they need to do better than SWTOR and DAIMP. They are not handwaving here about romances and solid story, where we can go liked/did not like till our faces turn purple, it's about more consistent support and renewal of content hard data. Can you, or can't ya?
While "we've made SWTOR!" might carry weight with erm... a tiny portion of potential players that hope to see an SP campaign in Anthem, "we've made DAIMP!" is a bad advertisement campaign, and Andromeda MP is the most recent take on a ME MP, and it makes every kind of sense for it to be made decent for Anthem to sail on more than the skin-tight Exosuits ('cause Bio will never be able to sell a game on the chainmail bikini vibe) & thunderstorms.
EDIT: In the end, I just want to believe

I thought DAIMP was one of the worst MP games I've ever played, and even it got some good support. So I will continue to wait and see for MEAMP.
I am very salty right now but I might calm down in a few days.

I never understood the hate, I liked DAIMP but then I didn't get too involved in it. I just liked the MMO-style dungeon crawl co-op. Or ARPG style, if you like. I didn't really participate in any communities about it either, so I wasn't keyed into the problems people probably unearthed.

I didn't really participate in any communities about it either, so I wasn't keyed into the problems people probably unearthed. What you describe is the problem in the nutshell. Coop modules in both MEs are easy to get into and join in and keep playing. DAIMP is basically too complex a structure with the grind sieve so intense that it sifted through the player base in a matter of... well, very fast.
Try starting DAIMP today... it's fatal flaw is that it has no player base. What raider is gonna play DA:I? What DA:I-mancer is gonna want to raid? And, just like with ME3 and SWTOR, offering "incentives" to the SP players to go do MP causes nothing but anguish and ill will.
This coop works because it is high adrenaline, run & gun, and dead simple to get into and figure out what's what. It's "together yet on your own" scheme is absolutely brilliant, and fast games are awesome.

I had hoped MEA would have built upon that sort of thing further as well. But it seems we get that plenty in Anthem

Well if they are, perhaps we can look forward to more 'interesting' lobbies.

It's amazing that people genuinely want to con other people into falling for doom-and-gloom garbage based on the fact that new content is being added to the game. It begs the question of why you even play the game if you desperately want to believe it's dying. I don't want to con anyone. I said in my initial post that I hope I'm wrong. Hell, I'd back them financially if they had to crowdfund dlc! I was just questioning the manner of the content. Its just a huge departure from the quality of content we've received thus far and from ME3's support
